Nobody will give Boris Johnson credit for this but he made it clear that he’d make it impossible and I reckon that has made a few heads turn.
You’d think that money has never played a part in football until recent times reading that ****e. Football has always been lead by money, it’s just the amounts that have got larger. Back in the day it was the local businessman made good, who’d buy his local club and spend a chunk of his kids inheritance on a CF in the hope of progression. It’s been the same throughout football history, we were known as the Mersey Millionaires back in the late 60’s early 70’s off the back of Sir John Moore’s Littlewoods cash. United dominated English football for the best part of 2 decades off the back of their vastly superior revenues, then along comes a club with a sugar daddy who can provide them with the funds to compete and people call foul! Only this issue wasn’t about the big clubs corralling the cash anyway, it was about the basic principle of taking winning on the pitch away from the game, people took the piss about Spurs even being involved and you got butt hurt, typical spud.
Guys, guys, we're all forgetting something important here. This wasn't fuelled by greed, it was NEEDED to SAVE football. Have we just killed football? #savefootball #prayforPerez
Sounds like the finer points of the contracts they’ve all signed has been pointed out by some swinging dick lawyer from JP Morgan
I had a weird feeling I was meant to be doing something around the time the news broke that Man City and Spurs were pulling out of the ESL. It was watching us play you lot...
BBC earlier said Hull would go up if they win tonight but i don't see how that's true. Lincoln could get to 87 and Peterborough to 88 (if they lose to Lincoln). I may be missing something though!
championship for you lot awaiting.. another season in league1 for us i reckon.... but in the grand scale of things, and what's been going on, do i care? do i ****. it's nice to be in the elite, but it ain't all that.
