The Papiss Cisse Hypocrisy.

Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse who has refused to play for his club in recent matches over their shirt sponsorship with WONGA, which contravenes his Islamic religious beliefs was caught gambling away in a casino. Wonga is a high interest 'loan shark' company in the UK and under Islamic Sharia laws Muslims are forbidden to benefit from borrowing money. To press home his message, he even had to pull out of the club's recent training tour and chose to train alone back in Newcastle. This is despite the club's few other Muslim players like Ben Arfa and Sissoko wearing the Wonga sponsored shirt.

While it is fair to respect his religious beliefs, how contradictory is his appearance at a casino where he was photographed at a Blackjack table gambling away tokens of £10 & £20's? Thought gambling was Haram in Islam as well or how come he missed that bit? Hmmmm!!!
