Sounds like a plan.
I also like the dirty protest idea.
Parceled turds sent to PL headquarters - preferably after eating something rancid.
After all, theyve shit on us....
So if the takeover is dead/dying via 'normal channels' then what unofficial channels could be used?
Government pressure? Hasnt worked.
MP pressure? Hasnt worked.
Fan pressure? Hasnt worked.
Protests? Hasnt worked.
Social media insults? Hasnt worked.
Whats left?
Discredit Masters and Hoffman and force their resignation?
Leaks? Air the PL's dirty laundry in public thanks to project pegasus?
Dirty protest by the fans?
Ashley is the perfect owner for the premier league.
Deceitful, profiteering, exploitative, lying, unscrupulous, insincere and unethical.
Just like them.
An MBE from the Queen for a young black athletes charity work is an endorsement not only of his charitable work, but of him too.
It will open a lot of doors for him post football.
As cynical as it sounds, accepting the MBE will be a great career move.
Heres a couple from abroad.
Lentini - went to Milan for world record transfer just before Shearers and got injured in a car crash in his second season. Ultimately forced his retirement from the game.
Pancev - went to inter for a then huge fee as he was a hugely prolific striker as well as european cup winner and golden boot winner and scored 3 goals in 3 years.
I wouldnt be jumping for joy either tbh.
But Townsend is a decent player, lots of experience in the PL - capable of scoring the odd goal.
Depending on the fee and the wages, he could be a good buy.
