Bizza Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) I feel sorry for the poor lasses behind the bar in that clip. They were probably expecting a fairly quiet Thursday night then all fucking hell broke loose Edited October 9, 2021 by Bizza Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scathing like, but at least he attacks everyone equally and actually gives the fans a bit of a break. He's just remembered this now though - that all the PL cares about is money. Fuck off Ollie, you jealous, big six supporting cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Great how as Wednesday unfolded it massively caught out the PL teams who lobbied against it and their journalist mouthpieces. Now it’s going to be an onslaught of negative press and fingers pointed at us, yet again telling our fans how we should feel about our football club. In the words of Nick Cave’s mam - “Head high and fuck ‘em all.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the part where Hearn said, its very simple Saudi Arabia offered the most money.... Going to have to get used to hypocritical, sanctimonious journos trying to discredit everything we do going forward. It would have been interesting if he had done more of a balanced indepth analysis of all the teams and who they are owned by and then the subsequent human rights abuses of the countries, however doing so would very much show that this is NOTHING NEW.

Thorpinho Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Not getting into comparisons or whatabouttery, but i saw someone trying to suggest Abramovich was linked to multiple murders/dodgy stuff. Any truth to that?? I am assuming not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know about murders but he's funded illegal Israeli settlements, so this idea that he's okay and it's now that the line has been crossed is nonsensical Football lost it's soul a long time ago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhtoon Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 There really isn't anything wrong with pointing out other people for being hypocrites imo. Calling it "whataboutery" is just a a smug, patronising response in lieu of a decent argument. For clarity, we shouldn't defend KSA, but it's not our moral responsibility to make the stand now where others haven't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 There is no more Big 6. Spurs and Arsenal can both fuck off if they think they're guaranteed Chanpions League football. Come on West Ham and Leicester!!!! And us of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my point exactly, "Whataboutery" is just a way of dismissing soild counter arguments and is very much in keeping with the current anti-intellectualism of the modern Western age. But anyway just thought I'd hoy my 2 peneth in as I've enjoyed 'ghosting' on here for the past 18 months so I thought I'd contribute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
