Lol. What a fucking idiot. Like I said, you blew in here 6 months ago and know fuck all about me. In fact, this might be our first interaction. Probably our last as well, you fucking idiot.
That’ll happen when you don’t put the “re” in too.
I’m just trying to uphold British values here. Don’t get mad.
Not mad. Get in the bin as we all think your a cunt
Great rugby team
You’re.
Learn to spell in your own fucking language. Surely an average 10 year old is taught the difference.
Ok I’m done.
Spelling and good diction isn't necessarily an indicator of superior intelligence, a lot of genius level people couldn't spell or put two sentences together for shit.
Even a lot of creative writers are saved in the edit.
I have a word for petty people who feel the need to correct spelling and grammar on a forum. The PC version is "Nigel" the non PG version is "cunt"
It was the policeman on allo allo - the old comedy about the war set in France. I got him lol
Oh dear....
It's prodictive text
Haha it was intentional you mallard
It works all the way up until the top, where it doesn't work because there are half a dozen clubs that have more than 600% of the resources of some others.
But it greatly imperils clubs who have to gamble, greatly, on staying up because the financial consequences of relegation are so incredibly high thanks to the PL.
As I said earlier, the foundation of the PL was one of the last straws that cast the die here. Even accounting for the era 25-50 years ago which included United's early PL domination and the last years of restricted player movement which helped Liverpool's dynasty to hold, there were 9 different champions of England and much more diversity over the years with the number of clubs that finished at the top of the table.
Not all of it is the PL's fault. Things began going this way once the game began being heavily commercialized in the 70s. The PL and global TV money just accelerated the effect.
I do quite enjoy these conversations, though, because a lot in the UK denigrate the closed system of US sports - which is approximately a socialist structure. Meanwhile you rabidly defend the current structure of football, which is basically unregulated free-market capitalism which soothes itself with the illusion of competition and opportunity - which is basically the American economy, the rich get richer and the poor grow more distant.
Anyway, all of this just casts me as a larger proponent of a closed system than I am. I do believe the sport, in a competitive sense, would benefit from it. I don't believe it would cause lower level football to collapse - there's several score over a hundred clubs playing and being supported that don't even have the rational ability to dream of the PL.
I really just want a more competitive league, and one that Spurs have a realistic opportunity of winning. We blew our chance to nick one several years ago, and without significant changes to the system I honestly don't believe we'll have another chance in the next 15-20 years.
Which is, in the end, why I've always been bullish on the Europa League. It's the best trophy for which we can habitually compete, if only we would do that.
Oh the irony lolYou misspelled grammar...
I can always rely on the Goat to put me right lolyour*
YOUR A cunt too!
You're a*
