    Or an Abramovich who fancies a bolt hole and purchased respectability should the need arise? Nobody knows. There are supposed to be checks on people buying into football. They can't be very good checks though, given the nest of vipers that slithered in over the past couple of decade.

    That's the thing with these bastards. Even when they lose huge, they win.
    good idea

    let's not buy tickets to matches or spend any money in the ground etc.

    As NQ said, the parasites have shown their hand. Nobody's under any illusion about the damage these pricks would do to the game given the chance.

    We won't get an opportunity like this for decades.

    Strike while the iron's hot, get 50+1 implemented and reclaim our sport.
    All we need is for Boris to step up!

We are 11th in the points apparently and given the teams ahead of us would qualify automatically via the league for the Champions League, would see us qualify next season if the rule was in place.

    How is that new rule any different to the super league? It’s the big clubs looking after their own interests to ensure they all play in the big competition. The only difference is that UEFA get the money rather then super league which therefore seems to make it acceptable
    There you go.

    That's what victory looks like for the little guy.

    Listen to this bullshit.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAKieZUwx4E

    So here's the story.

    The big bad wolf in America knocks on the first piggies door. Little spud, little spud, let me come in. Or I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your toilet bowl down. So the little pig let the wolf in and the spud signed the contract.

    Then the wolf knocks on the second piggies door. Little chav, little chav, let me come in. Or I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your Russian gangster pad down. So the little pig let the wolf in and reluctantly signed the strange contract that he (honest gov) knew nothing about. Poor little pig.

    Then the wolf feels a tap on his shoulder and it's another little pig, the gypo pig from the big fancy house make of gold bricks, with a pen in his hand. Where do I sign, Mr Wolf?

    You have to feel sympathy for these hapless little porkies who run billion dollar empires but really had no clue what they were signing or what was really going on.

    And we need more wahmen and diversity in the game btw. Just saying.

    Oh well, looks like the media is back to normal. Here comes the most unbelievable cover story since all the other ones.

    It was only a 23 year contract btw, so I can see why they didn't look into it too deeply. I do that myself. Some bloke turns up at the door, 23 year contract for something I don't understand in his hand. I sign, he laughs, job done. Happens all the time. Could happen to anyone.

    Put enough pressure on him and you never know. Carrot and stick.

    Do the same to UEFA/FIFA, the FA, whoever else might have some influence.

    At some point with enough fervour behind it, you'd reach a critical mass.

    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
