Me. It’s all about breaking up the cartel and seeing them struggle and others taking over.
I don’t like Newcastle. They come to our ground every year singing WWYWYWS and always have laughable hair do/fake tan/bleached teeth/skinny jeans types kicking off outside after the game.
But I’d fucking love to see them break into our world and help fuck United Liverpool and Arsenal off.
They tried to monopolise football for themselves. They were part of the five clubs who wanted to split 75% of the TV income between themselves and leave the other 25% for the other 19 teams in the league. Then they were part of the 14 clubs who wanted to monopolise European football for themselves, keeping the same clubs qualifying every year when they opened it up to 3 and 4 league places in certain hand picked leagues and seeded the groups so the same teams always made the knock-out stages, all of them creaming in the money for themselves while the rest of football just faded away.
Fuck them!
It was great when Leicester won the league. When they beat us at our place, we applauded them off the pitch; when they went to Old Trafford after already winning the league the Rags boo’d them off singing “20 times” at them (nowt wrong with a bit of banter but the difference was stark).
Football should never be a closed shop. If it’s a closed shop for too long the sport will die.
So let’s hope Newcastle do get that takeover, Wolves’ owner really is serious about getting CL football, and so on and do on, decade after decade!
