Cureton link a strange one

Last updated : 15 January 2002 By
Ian Holloway sold Cureton to Reading in August 2000 after he allegedly had a relationship with Andy Tillson's 15-year-old daughter. Although valued higher than the £250,000 fee received, Cureton was told the first offer that came in for him would be accepted. Tillson also decided to move on, signing for Walsall.

Cureton has scored 112 goals in 226 league appearances to date, and despite not being an automatic first choice in attack for Reading this season, has stated he is not seeking a move. If he were, I doubt very much Holloway would — if he could — go in for him.
