Scraping the bottom of your pocket for £1.
And it's still at least 50p a month overpriced.

I said last week that he should have been arguing against this years ago, but I do agree with the thrust of the article.
He doesn't mention United or Liverpool (or City), and the overall argument is that it's a bad thing that most of the Champions League billions have gone to just a dozen clubs - which is targeted at a group including Liverpool and United. He even suggests that the Liverpool comeback against Barcelona might be seen by some as a dramatic peak, but it's actually just a symptom of the money being concentrated in the hands of a few teams.
One of his conclusions is something that I think needs to happen if we're ever going to improve competition:
Essentially he agrees with the argument most of us on here make, that cost controls (FFP/PSR etc), just protect the already wealthy. Unless football finds a way of sharing money, rather than simply giving rich clubs more and more, we are stuck with a more predictable Champions League.
I have said for years that he has some valid concerns about where football is, as we all do. If he can get himself out the false narrative "state-owned" rabbithole he has buried himself in these last few years, he may just be worth reading.

Only when we win 3 in a row, along with the Grand National and the boat race.Wouldnt be surprised if the daft c**t says we have to win the world cup.

They started off telling everyone they were going to be different but it wasn't long until the grift started and they were outed.

He might have gone to some fancy or not so fancy independent school but does anyone know for certain the canute can read, or has he got someone to read it for him.Those comments put TAA right back in his box. He must have felt a right prick when he read them.

They'd have to pay me £1 a month just to wipe my arse on the printed version.
Fingers crossed that they and the beggars from 'Pallett Park' bite the dust sooner rather than later.It's for a limited time only - i.e. before they go out of business.
