1. Will fans be outraged by the allegations?
Some will be angry, others non-plussed. I suspect most people who follow football will have heard the rumour and gossip about bungs that has been rife for years, and they will be able to judge the programme accordingly.
2. Who ultimately pays for the bungs?
Bungs are fraud, sometimes criminal in nature, but always a deceit.
It is perfectly logical to make the case that in the end, the fans pay, because they are the ones who provide the income for the clubs by purchasing tickets, merchandise and so on.
Hopefully, it will be the ones who offer and take bungs who will pay in a different way in the end!
3. Did the programme tell us anything new?
The programme put names in the public domain, and provided an insight into the culture of agents that perhaps some people would have been unaware of.
Again, people who are close to football will be less surprised by the content of the programme than those who do not follow the game so closely.
4. Should we accept that bungs are part of football culture?
Irrespective of the popular belief that it might be "part of the culture", we should never accept it. It is fraud.
5. What effect will this have on the report into corruption in football that the Premier League commissioned Lord Stevens to write?
The Premier League is keen that all information and evidence that is relevant should be passed on to become part of the Quest team's investigation.
They have been working for six months going through more than 350 transfers made by Premier League clubs.
Their report will be received with even greater interest now, following Panorama's programme.
