Exactly

Football died a bit this season. Not just because we were on the opposite end of it to the gooners but because fans en masse lost faith in the integrity of the premier league.

There’s always accusations of corruption but this was different. And it wasn’t even subtle.

Yeh it sort of felt like they were openly doing it. Woolwich getting no red cards this season despite playing how they play. We either have corruption or a level of incompetence that defies sense and weirdly happens to favour a few teams only.

The one I remember most years back was the newspaper article on Lecister City. A doctor said he was doping their players and that season 5 out of the 10 quickest players in the league where from Leicester including 32 Year old Wes Morgan. The following season they all went slow again after the title and the inquiry was hushed up.

I think there is still the ref bribe scandal with Barcelona on going as well. I would imagine there is loads of dodgy shit going on in this league as well.

I hear a lot of people say they are incompetent. I think they are but they are incompetent when it comes to disguising it.
 
Positives from yesterday....the free pint averaged out at £3.92 (cheaper than the Volunteer) a pint and also had a free pie on the way out. Negatives....the post match journey was infested with red filth so had to jump in the shower when I got back.

I admire Micky's loyalty, but poor refereeing and VAR decisions played a miniscule part of our piss poor PL form over not one, but two seasons.

De Zerbi has had seven games to guide the players through to securing our PL status. That has partially proved that the players (for the most part) was never the problem.

Like De Zerbi said, he is looking at retaining around a dozen players from the current squad.

Clean slate, good recruitment and we will be back in or close to European football next season, but no Micky VAR and poor referee decisions didn't nearly cost us relegation.
 
Don't normally drink, but got through 6 pints yesterday.
Tad jaded..

But we're safe and WH are out of the way for a year.
Or more.
