Detective is due to the blackmailing. My guess is Darren BentThat was my first thought. Its not much of a scandal though it it (if true.) A guy bangs a blond in a hotel and happens not to mind his mates doing the same thing in the same room. Even if the ladies were on the game it wouldn't be a massive issue since prostitiution is legal in vegas.

The scandal is the blackmail with the potential release of the video.

When is this country going to shake off the legacy of Victorian prudery?
A man had sex for recreational purposes, fancy!
It tends to be repressed people who aren't getting enough/good enough action themselves that knee-jerk to moral outrage about this sort of thing.
No surprise the story broke in the Daily Mail, that being so...

Again, that is not the scandal Sam. It is the videoing and blackmailing which makes it newsworthy.

My detective work rejects Chamakh
It says a top 10 club - if it was an Arsenal player they would have described him as a player for a top 3 or 4 club. They want to make it seem like its as big a name as they can. A top 10 club means a club that is about 10th or was about 10th at the time of the article.
