Clattenburg, the FA & Adebayor - proof that the system is bent

[r.soleofsalford]

Yeah. Just seen that but scrolled through BBC and all other papers and found very little if anything. Certainly not headlines...
Interestingly Halsey says the Rooney swearing into the lens was also interfered with to ensure he got banned. Not quite the script some on here would have you believe....

yes im sure if a city player had sworn down the camera lens on live tv he`d of been made into a knight of the realm.

Thanks for your reply but my question was rhetorical, I know that any Union would not step up until asked to do so.I imagine that should the resultant furore after Halsey's tweet come into the publics awareness that talks should happen between the members and their Union. It goes a lot deeper than normal industrial relations.

Cheers for that. Combination of lack of sleep and being Stella'd up ;)

Agree that it does go much deeper than the standard industrial relations, howeveer when people are being offered £50k pay offs to keep schtum, who is going to blow the proverbial whistle?

If there is nothing to cover up why are refs being given hands outs to sign a non disclosure or gagging order or whatever it is?

Granada news carried it.

Absolutely it was & do you know who was head of the FA. We also got a red card turned around & GPC stated there are some funny things going on & they are watching carefully.

We had 1 season of having someone look out for us & it proved to me it's corrupt. Next season Bernstein was gone & normal behaviour resumed.

After VK's red in the FA Cup i came close to chucking it all in and just going to non-league matches. If we get shafted on Saturday the same way I'm gone.

I feel your pain. I think many feel the rigged nature makes enjoying football futile. May as well watch the wrestling.

Compared to the 3 FA s , FIFA, EUFA & English FA, the WWE looks as straight as an arrow. No fixing there sir, move on nothing to see.

I'd go for the Chelsea-Barcelona game in the 2008 CL semi final

For one of the decisions in that game Eto'o charges the ball down rugby style with his arms above his head and the ball hit his arms in the box and the pen wasn't given

yes I remember that pure corruption
