Neither one nor the other, not perfect or infallible, intelligent but not above question, his need to respond to any ideas that question him to seek validation suggests that he is liking the spotlight a little too much

You forgot the blood sucking lawyer part!

I've been working on this if anyone fancies giving me some CONSTRUCTIVE feedback it would be appreciated :



It needs further editing and some visuals changing but I think it's fairly accurate..

Can i just say that i am loving our club more than ever right now by these statements and letters we are issuing. We have had the kid gloves on for far too long, and now we are taking the PL to court, winning and more or less laughing at the PL statement with the letter to all other clubs

I have and as the key element is that APT breaks actual law and is unlawful. Its like a serial killer being found not guilty of one murder while being found guilty on another twelve.

That isn't what the judgment says though.

And that is the entire point, it is HIS considered view and that is all, the fact that he chooses to use a appalling excuse of a radio station which has in the past employed stan collymore and mark goldbridge and currently employs gabby agbonlahor and martin keown to voice that opinion somewhat reduces the veracity of that opinion. I get he is a blue and he knows his onions but that does not make him infallible and his opinions above reproach with the best well in the world if a respected surgeon decided to express his medical opinion in the beano you would have to question why.

I'd answer that the odd appearance on Talksport is incredibly unlikely to outweigh the high credibility and career opportunities he'd get from retaining his credibility as a legal counsel and football finance expert by outlining opinions as he sees them based on his years of experience and access to facts.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. However they aren't entitled to their own facts. I'd trust someone like Stefan to interpret these far better than most, and certainly far better than most posters here, myself included.

However what do I know, I'm just an Arsenal fan!

There are a lot of aphorisms, proverbs, and idioms about this.

Pay the man it would be worth it to have Martin Samuels on side

Why? He fights our corner for free and is independent. If we pay him we are a few quid down and he is regarded as biased.

Be aware that claims of a PL win are linked to this:

He added: "While it is true that MCFC did not succeed with every point that it ran in its legal challenge, the club did not need to prove that the APT rules are unlawful for lots of different reasons. It is enough that they are unlawful for one reason."

In reality the PL ‘wins’ were worthless because City only needed to show the rules were unlawful for a single season. That some of City’s claims of the rules being unlawful were thrown out means absolutely nothing.

Here’s an example:

Haaland has 5 one on ones with the keeper. The keeper saves 4 but Haaland scores 1. To win the game Haaland had to score just 1 of his 5 attempts. The keeper can claim he ‘won’ 4 but ultimately the game goes to Haaland.

So, what you're saying, in conclusion...is that we got the three points but we're probably better going back to the false 9?
