I think Milo's price was 3 bridges and the Yugo factory rebuilt<ggggggg>

excerpt from the story:
So, here's the thing: thanks to all the bookings, pitch invasions and flying objects, the Norway-Slovenia match ends a full four minutes before Spain-Yugoslavia. Plenty of time for the peseta-dripping Spanish FA to make its way from one dugout to the other with a huge wheelbarrow full of cash, for the Yugoslav coaches to give their side a sly thumbs-up from the side of the pitch and for their players to suddenly go belly up.

Upshot? Yugoslavia though, pockets bulging with cash; Spain, of whom so much is expected, through as well. Adios to the Scandinavians, or as Gazza once so famously said: "F**k off Norway."

Think I'm making this up? Well think again. When, with five minutes to go, 365 rang the Yugo bench with our offer for them to throw the match (well, we couldn't have three of the major language groups on our Eurofinals365 site English, German and Spanish all going out in the first round, could we?), we were told: "Bugger off, we've already had a better offer!"

Still, a great match though!
