Standards are changing, perhaps slipping!
Our eyes were opened when Jimmy Bullard slipped out of Craven Cottage during the transfer window, opting to take a few extra grand a week from a side plummeting down the table.
In fact they plummeted down the table so fast only a lack of an additional fixture kept them in the Premier League, a positive point for Scudamore`s much-maligned 39th game perhaps!
Would it have been some sort of poetic justice if Jimmy had of sat by helplessly counting his bucks whilst his new club plunged into the Championship?
Our views on Bullard changed overnight, from hero to villain in the stroke of an over-priced pen.
Talking of villains, step forward Gareth Barry, apparently a man cut from the same cloth as our Jimmy, a midfielder looking at a different picture.
Would it be too much to hope for Barry`s new club to suffer a similar fate as that of the Tigers?
Some might call it poetic justice!
