On the radio they were saying that there were rumours that DAZN were involved in this. DAZN
You’d have to think that FSG’s FSM and NESN operations would want to be particularly closely associated as well. What sort of links do the other ESL clubs have to media businesses?
But it’s ultimately a competition. The best teams with the best players win. They then become bigger and those that don’t become lesser. This isn’t an equality sports day where everybody gets a medal (and I HATE that concept), it’s a reflection of life. We happen to support a very successful club that’s worth billions and is utterly driven by money. This is capitalism in action. I know that doesn’t sit well with some but the biggest and best tend to get the cream. If it’s happening, I want us at the head of the table.
Fucking hell, that’s a result. TAN didn’t even exist last season! One season knocking around middle of the football fan forum table and suddenly we’re entering the big time.
Obviously you, as manager, ought to take a lot of the credit but personally most of it must go down to the decision to poach such world-beating posters from the established football fan forum title contender, This Is Anfield. Posters such as @SBYM, @redbj, @Scott.Jones, @PeachesEnRegalia and, of course, the incomparable @Kopstar, these are posters at the top of their game who deserve to be mixing it, week in week out, with the very best of the deranged lunatics that support the wrong clubs.
Let’s hope the sponsorship money from Morgan Stanley actually filters down to the talent this time!
But sport has rules built into it to create a level playing field. Of course larger clubs have more power to attract players etc, but it should be that, when the ref blows his whistle it’s just about the 22 players on the pitch giving their best for their team, and the fact that smaller clubs can, and do, upset the big teams is what makes it interesting. The more the rules and the competitions favour only the richest and more powerful, the less interesting it becomes. That goes for capitalism in general too by the way.
Why aren’t the anger, disgust directed at FIFA, UEFA, FA, PL and similar cunts??? Aren’t they the one who sat on their arse, lined their pockets, and kept taking decisions that ruined football?
