Ten Hag sacked! (P 416)

[blue b4 the moon]

Surely it was disrespectful to score 7 against a team.

Barnsley would have been complicit with the campaign, probably made more money on the night than they'll take in gate receipts this season, or at the very least this side of Xmas.

I know I'm an old cynic but I am becoming even more skeptical about what is going on at the swamp.

The owners keep their accounts shrouded in secrecy in the Cayman Islands, I believe? They are not open to scrutiny and no questions are to be asked. Why? I can only assume it's because they have something to hide because I cannot think of any other reason as to why they would do this. I know nothing about high finance so I'm open to correction here, but shouldn't questions be asked about the way the Glazers are doing business and what impact it has (if any) on the Premier league?
The debt they have accrued since taking over is stunning, absolutely breathtakingly stunning - and yet the media never mention it. They have the single most expensive squad of players that have ever existed in the English leagues, but the ultra-expensive millionaire 'superstars' are playing hoof-ball and the club is in the lower echelons of the table, but still the media never mention it. Surely not ALL journalists in this country are such fervent rag fans they will abandon their morals and integrity if the club tells them to?

Nope. I have never heard of any other football club in this country being given such preferential treatment on and off the field, and there has to be a reason why they are seemingly shielded from criticism by Sky/BBC/ITV etc.

I'd like to know what hold the rags have over our media, I really would.

He’s not doing himself any favours.

11 goals, unbeaten in 4 games since the first of the month ......

He'll survive a non-spursy spursy loss.

[dickie davies]

TBF, ten bob has matched Pep's last four results, W2 D2, so he must be doing something right

Makes it even worse that he made this comment before the game
