People have got fandom so twisted that they're jumping through hoops to defend things like cheating and mass redundancies.
We talked for years about football being like religion but we've gone past that and it's fundamentalism at this point
Grow tf up.
I'm amazed at how little heat the PL are getting over all this. Fostered an environment where they essentially turned a blind eye to questionable ownership for multiple clubs, all because it was good for business. Now we're supposed to believe they're somehow the saviours??
Yesterday so galled Premier League execs that more than a few were discussing whether City should be immediately suspended, due to the effect
That would require a highly unlikely vote, but it is also a sanction available to the Independent Commission

From a fan's perspective, the Man City stuff isn't about fairness, it's about weaponising wins and losses. Football is now less about it made how you feel and more about how you can use success to belittle fans of other teams.
Imagine if Spurs were actually good. There’d still be people fucking moaning. It’s incessant. It also doesn’t make people clever or more of a fan.
FT: 0-0. On the one hand an improved defensive display from #Tottenham, on the other, it is the first time #Spurs haven’t scored in their first 3 league games since 1974.
The Mike Dean stuff is an indictment of the media landscape we currently exist in. People say dumb shit for clout. A lot of the time it’s not even close to what happened or what they think. Dean might have done what he said but how is he ever going to censured for it? He’s not.
My granny could’ve caught that and she’s been dead 30 years. I love baseball but some of you need to calm tf down.
I thought that Mudryk was the first time giving De Zerbi free rein was a bad idea and then I decided against making Spurs my entire identity and moved the fuck on.
Richarlison expected to stay at Tottenham this season, despite links away from the club. #THFC

Gakpo to Ndiaye to Mudryk is like trying to book a holiday destination and going from New York to Bali to Barry Island.
“Hijacked” 😂😂😂
🚨| #Tottenham have hijacked the Mudryk move to Leeds United and talks for him going to #Spurs are advancing. @NizaarKinsella 🇺🇦
An end to the 3pm blackout isn’t always being on the side of the big corporation, there’s more nuance. I have mobility issues and my club is a nightmare to access so I’m denied a legal opportunity to watch them play.
If you want to scrap the 3pm blackout, fair enough! But make no mistake, you are therefore very much on the side of the “corporate giants” on this one.
