Nice one Martin Samuel.

A tabloid sports columnist is a shock jock, that's his job. They all are. Samuel included. We'll have to agree to disagree about his "loyalties" or "bias".

I'm just not buying all this "Samuel is a hero" bollocks because he happens to write an article which biased fans agree with.
Not at all, and SWP's right.
The thing is that as a regular reader of his columns I can honestly say that even when he writes something that I don't agree with I still read it and know that he believed in what he is saying.
 
Like i've said before and for those that missed it in the Bluemoon Handbook (Section 5 Paragraph 2) it states:

If it's negative news it's Bullshit
If it's positive news it's true

Can i suggest that people read up on the Handbook before posting to save yourself future embarrassment?

Thanks!

Dan

oh god I feel dirty about agreeing with a journalist. However this is a top article.
It's okay to agree with Samuel. He's the number one footy journo, by a country mile. So much so that he puts shame on the other fuckwits stealing a living whilst mascarading as being in the same industry as Samuel. He tells it how it is; he doesn't sensationalise; he doesn't make it up; he doesn't purposely talk shit to wind up people or clubs.

Mr Samuel, I salute you!
