MARTIN SAMUEL: Rivals turned on Big Two to kill Project Big Picture

MARTIN SAMUEL - CHIEF SPORTS WRITER: Every club have grown accustomed to the Big Six's threats and power plays but this was a requisition too far.

Surely I can't be the first to put this up in his latest installment (apologies if beaten to it)........

Some of that is wonderful.

"In lieu of structured proposals club by club, Parry plucked a random figure of £250m from the air."

"The Big Six became a Big Two very early in the meeting as four read the room and tiptoed softly away from the chief conspirators."

"Liverpool and Manchester United don't seem too taken with Plan B, either, which would see them depart for the EFL to mount a reverse takeover; or as it is known in business circles, engage in a wanton act of commercial suicide."

You left out my favourite bit.

Ahem;

'There has been some laughable tosh circulating this week, not least the idea that John Henry of Liverpool has been sat across the Atlantic deeply worried about the fate of the English football pyramid. That is Rick Parry's brief and, by all accounts, he even kept a straight face delivering it, so on the bright side he may be able to retrain for the stage if his lengthy career harming English football is over.'

Or the bit that might actually be considered a form of Financial Fair Play:

"The old division of broadcast revenue, pre-Premier League – 50 per cent for tier one, 25 per cent for tier two, 12.5 per cent for tiers three and four – is gone for good, sadly. Project What's-in-it-for-me? was proposing 25 per cent handed down, and that would be healthy.

Yet so, too, would a levy per club, perhaps split according to domestic earnings. Ten per cent from Liverpool's pot last season would work out as £17.46m; from Manchester United £14.25m; from Aston Villa £10.61m. Then we'd see how devoted these American venture capitalists are to football's lovely pyramid."

A bit like VAT or Income TAX ....
 
If it is money to the lower leagues just put a 10% tax on all transfers. Use the sum raised as a trust fund to help out the lower league clubs from going under. Maybe allowing the away side at league games to have a % of the home gate money. (Tongue firmly in cheek, I know I know that would really piss off these shithouse clubs)

Tongue in cheek or not this slippery slope all started when home teams kept 5heir own gate receipts
 
Lol, get over to the bbc footy page, it has lawro(ever present ex dipper), and a rapper I never heard of(rag fan) deliberating and forecasting the weekends scores as happens every week. So, how do these two "unbiased" people think our game v arse is going to end up?.........yes you guessed it 2-5, the overall list has BOTH going 2-5, but the pre match report bit has it at 1-1 and 2-5.

Even at 1-1 and 2-5 the 2-5 is surely taking the piss, I mean how many home games did we lose 2-5, and dont tell me about the last one, because by that logic they would have dippers losing 7-2(which they dont). So, unsatisfied with their own anti City rhetoric, they also now bring in "others" to help them along in taking the piss.

It shouldnt annoy me, and it doesnt surprise me, so for any of the ex rag employed bbc footy "journalists" avidly seaching the Bluemoon posts to laugh at the reaction to their "work", I say this...... I hope with all my heart that the now ruined bbc you "work" for will soon be defunded. Dont worry though, maybe there will be some work for you back at the swamp.....or perhaps not, because rats dont tend to jump back onto a sinking ship!!

Worry not, fellow bluemoaners.

The odd head on the nail Martin Samuel article, will be buried in a landslide of publicity reportages shifting the slimey greed blame from the twin culprit cunts of a red vermin clubs, towards the usual suspects.

They have an army of David Connts, rent-a-quotes, gobshites and assorted Murdoch vassals at their disposal in their media to do the dirty deeds, then realign the brainwashed unwashed masses to toe the party line, as expected.

Enjoy while it lasts.
 
Samuel has slipped up today, he tells us the dippers have carefully managed their image and are hugely popular and even revered. What he could have said was their recent success has given their well placed glory hunting twats in the media around the globe the opportunity to abuse whatever position they occupy to spout non stop drivel about the bin dipping rats despite not even being able to drop a pin in the right spot on a map.
I think that’s a more fair assessment than Martins.
 
Samuel Speaks Out

MARTIN SAMUEL: All Liverpool was not be Man United... but they failed

MARTIN SAMUEL - CHIEF SPORTS WRITER: There are great and good people at Liverpool, but the modern reputation it has carefully cultivated went down with the ship Big Picture.
www.dailymail.co.uk www.dailymail.co.uk

A sycophantic media that has fawned over Pool and ignored / minimised their many failings on and off the pitch over decades has at long last recognised what every football fan knows about them.

Thankfully the leaching of the game by the American owners has been exposed. An unholy alliance of Americans and their paid cohorts planted in England and within UEFA, have plotted and connived against those investing in the game, their club and their community.

The Americans business plans are about extracting the most from our game and restricting competition for their benefit.

Now watch Neil Ashton`s continuing PR spin for all things Utd, and similar from their strangest of bedfellows at the other end of the M62.

Meanwhile Samuel speak outs and remains a voice of reason.

I’ve noticed the attacks by the media lap dogs on anyone opposed the EFL carve up, Conn playing a blinder as an outraged socialist for hire whilst his mates write puff pieces on Rags & Dippers.
