Martin Samuel appreciation

[Kenward Garg]

He was the only the one to admit on Suday Supplement a few months ago , that the editors of the press openly encourage negative coverage towards our club and journalist essetnially score brownie points for digging dirt up on our club whilst they are encouraged to highlight the positives of the 'istree clubs , the media is a business the clicks are essential to their profits , truth has absolutely nothing to do with the articles that are written , and they will always have a an unnamed "source" to refer to , or basically they are telling a pack of lies.

Funny you should say that. I recently watched the fifth series of The Wire and exactly the same happened with a media establishment,albeit fictional, in Baltimore.

Samuels comments on liverpool this morning were interesting:
“the amount they run, they way they play, what Klopp expects, is not normal. They should be tired, but they’re not. Amazing”
Or words to that effect.

oh, yeah, and that their best asset is their recruitment strategy. Funny that.

Livarpool: the "Lance Armstrong of the Premier League"?

A lone voice being drowned out by BS.

Yep. Reminds me of the great Robert Fisk when Iraq was "illegally" invaded by US and coalition forces in 2003.

No agenda but it seems highly unlikely we've done absolutely nothing wrong, we did accept a fine from them last time which suggests we'd done something wrong then. If we've done nothing wrong then hopefully when we take it further it's all proven and is kicked out. You were struggling because a journalist who has been very supportive of us in trying to explain what a sham FFP is dared to suggest we'd broken some of the rules set up to stop us mixing with the European elite.

We were fined because UEFA changed the FFPR rules AFTER we’d submitted our accounts.

That's how fucking bent UEFA is

He has always been fair to us.

Still he is a scuffy cùnt

That clip should be shared millions of times on social media, especially now.

Sure 90% of the article is ok but he starts like the rest have started so he can flip as and when required and claim he was right all along just like the rest.

All fucking snakes and i dont get the smoke being blown up his arse one bit?

Because he is fair, criticised us when due and defends us also. In all these articles they are quick to label us as cheats etc. He’s the only one that’s called out why ffp came into play and why it was wrong. If you fail to see that then you’re even stupider than I realised.

Stood right behind me at 93:20. Looked genuinely pleased for us unlike the sour lemons around him.
