Still relevant and very honest. People will call him a 'cunt' for his honesty, as expected so it's why players continue with the badge kissing and confess blind loyalty even though it's not always the case. It's WWE! :lol: Time to accept what's real and what's not. Idiots hurling abuse on Twitter is embarrassing but that's just the nature of Twitter.
He's not wrong tbh. Football fans like to live in the fantasy that footballers 'love' their clubs but they have no reason to unless it's the club they grew up supporting.
This is WHY it's perfectly legitimate to call them cunts - because they don't give a shit about what we give a shit about. We're in it for the success of the club and we pay for the privilege, we don't get paid. They are in it for the money. Plain to see who the cunts are in terms of sport and sporting rivalry. The guy above is honest, I don't knock him for that. And he's a cunt too because he's a cancer that's feeding on sport and the long standing tribalism that is part and parcel of the game for the fan.
I don't say they can't go chasing their money, all I'm saying is don't dare profess loyalty to or love of the club. Who want's to hear the lie? Money has destroyed almost everything about the game and it's a damn shame. There's a natural conclusion to this money driven agenda - monopoly. We're seeing it now. All the most unsavoury characters you could imagine at the top of the game, hence the blatant corruption, and behind them a stream on unsavoury players who whore themselves out for as much cash as they can get.
You can say fine, that's just the way it is. Or you could say let's start working as fans to get the undesirables out of this game and get back to the sport. Wouldn't that be a good thing? It's not like sport without corruption and extreme greed is impossible. We used to have the Olympic Games, for example. Is our modern society so broken it is now impossible to resurrect real sport? It's hugely defeatist and pretty dumb to just go along with things as they get worse, for one it's a damn sight more expensive as the greedy rats demand more and more. Makes no sense to keep shovelling the cash when you get less and less back.
What sort of extremism are you on? :lol: Should we all go and burn down the Emirates? If it's such a problem, just switch off and put your money and efforts elsewhere.
:lol:Quote:

If someone is a greedy cunt who tarnishes everything around him provided he gets his barrow filled then okay, there have always been fucks like that, always will be. But you don't applaud them or sympathise with them like an obedient dog, do you? You call them what they are. Like this Qatar business. What do we do? Shake our heads and say that's the way it is? The very, very least you can do, now there's an open line of communication with the Internet, is say hey, what about that guy Platini? What about Blatter? Cunts! When the whole world is calling them a cunt, and rightly so, and everywhere they go they are scorned, yeah they still have their cash but there's a price to pay. Or you can just let them off the hook, let them laugh in your face, piss on you. We can't do anything directly as individuals to change this shit, but at least we can avoid grovelling or apologising. Surely this will only encourage them to be worse?
It seems that Cesc wanted to come back to Arsenal. The Club seems to have passed on that.Quote:

Well if he pulls on a chav shirt then that in itself gives us every right to declare open season. Same goes for any chav. Anyway, all we have to go on right now is media speculation. Which means there is absolutely nothing of substance to go on. But if the club are passing up quality and letting that quality go to our rivals, yet again, then they are setting themselves up for a deserved kicking if even bigger quality doesn't come walking through the door. The cash is piling up now, time for those who are directly concerned to declare what the cash is for. Long way to go but if nine figures doesn't leave the vault this time around (which would still be a modest spend given our track record of transfer profiteering) there won't be any excuses to cover their arses.Quote:
