Larry-AV 124 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 11/10/2020 : The Greed League, specifically the moneymen at Man United and Liverpool, are continuing their avaricious policies, see link below. I have commented on their scheme in the Telegraph and I share my comment here. One Person, One Vote - our basic democratic right. Now imagine if any Party proposed a return to old voting qualifications, e.g., being a householder, before you could vote. I doubt if such a Party would win many seats ! Yet here we have such a proposal for the EPL. It is totally out of order and deserves to be binned, along with the rest of this scheme, which is basically blackmail ... you need money, we have money, you can have some, but only on our terms.

AVFC CEO Christian Purslow said this morning that there should be transparency in these matters ... rather than the surreptitious dealings that led to the PBP scheme.

Larry-AV 124 Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 20/10/2020 : The swine are in the trough again ... and unlike the four-legged variety (think of bangers, bacon, butties), football, outwith their self selected few, can derive no benefit from their produce, not even an oink !
