You'd think investigative programmes like Panarama or Dispatches would get their teeth stuck right into this season.
Their viewing figures would go through the roof.
After all football is so important that it was the only sport allowed by the Prime Minister at the time to continue during the pandemic so that season could be completed.
It's a huge industry that is built on its followers/fans, so needs to be clean one would think.

The BBC would lose access to one of its biggest revenue products. Remember what happened when they went after GPC and his family being shady cunts?

You say read? He's still on Janet and John book 2. Not the Terry Wogan versions.

Lazy, and can't even call it journalism.

I don’t think Ronay has any qualifications as a journalist. He writes in a very immature flowery style like a teenager. He has latched onto football like so many posh boys in London.

Journalists are a lot like estate agents, football experts and football commentators - they just wake up one day and declare themselves as such.

There is a new breed of digital cut and paste merchants. Ronay seems to have no knowledge of media law. His article carries some false statements which could be legally challenged. He is entitled to his opinion and has freedom of speech. But that doesn’t mean he can make false and defamatory allegations.

Such a mardarse comment from a bitter individual with no concept of decency, and certainly zero integrity.

Another media whore who is best ignored.

worth a brief extract

"Earlier this season both Everton and Brighton were denied blatant penalties against Arsenal which would have cost north London's current finest critical points. Reflection on those incidents has arisen by hindsight as more dubious decisions have raised serious controversy.

Come the key fixture in the climax to the chase Gabriel, Arsenal's beefiest enforcer-in-chief, was not sent off for a headbutt against Manchester City. Although Mikel Arteta's muscular ensemble were defeated in that match they were spared, crucially, the loss of Gabriel for two vital ensuing games by VAR's bizarre approval of the withholding of a red card.

Then the biggest call of all. The disallowing of that late West Ham equaliser which would have sent City into the final week in pole position to add the league title to their Carabao and FA Cup trophies. The reason given was that Arsenal's goalkeeper had been impeded.

Oh the irony! They've been gunning down goalkeepers all season long. As well as platoons of opponents in goalmouths as they launch their barrages of corners. As they did in this instance at the other end of the pitch. According to VAR, all of those assaults came after the selective decision which pushed West Ham even more heavily towards relegation.

Really? And mind that the convicted culprit was shoved into David Raya by one of the keeper's Arsenal team-mates.

Oh the hypocrisy! Arteta feverishly brandishing an accusing arm in the air as any number of bodies from both teams were hitting the deck in the box.

Nor was that the end of it. On Monday night at the Emirates, with Arsenal clinging with embarrassing desperation to a one-nil win against poor old relegated Burnley, their goalscorer Kai Havertz was inconceivably allowed to stay on the pitch after a potentially leg-breaking foul. Again no VAR red. Are these guys colour-blind?"

Outside of the illegal loan from owners, and the two scandals below, Arsenal are clean as a whistle…..
