I think he may have gone to the Eric Cantona school of seagull poetry for inspiration.

Xhaka just got ruined on talksport by White and Jordan for whinging about people not recognising how hard he works.
“Preposterous twerp” and “Arrogant sod”

What an absolute bunch of lemons! Massive cover up there ,obviously.
Maybe they won't mention the end of the season at all too!
Final episode fades to black after their win over Leeds with the players celebrating....voiceover line and/or subtitle states..."Woolwich went on to qualify for the Europa League 22/3 and look forward to competing for silverware next season"
They know it was a con and are ashamed; otherwise it wouldn't have been redacted(*).
(*You can bet the Amazon crew would have deemed it worthy of inclusion.)

Embarrassing. While I understand how its become this way, the AoN series is just PR fluff pieces. I can't even bother to get excited about the end because they are going to present it like the season was a major accomplishment, and Arteta is the magic architect of their success.
I mean all you had to do was watch our series... It was like Poch was never at the club
It's obvious the Club has final say for edits so of course nothing controversial will ever be shown
Pretty dumb from Amazon.
Fundamentally, there are two potential audiences for this series:
1 woolwich fans, who think they're getting the insider scoop on their club
2 the rest of the footie world, who want some big time laughs
Audience 2 enjoyed woolwich plonker Piers Morgan declaring the antics of Arteta to be "so weird", but we need more....
When ours was done Theo Delaney who works in media said that AoN were given complete creative freedom by us... Likely for most money, I wonder if Woolwich negotiated much less money and had edit approval.
Result
Stuff is always going to be cut just do to time constraints, but they also come up with a greater narrative that arcs through the full series. For us, it was really a show about Mourinho and its the same now where the entire show is really about lego head. The players, club, and results are really just foils for his story.
I'm sure that the clubs have a fair amount of say on which things can/cannot be included in the show, but I also think that its in Amazon's interest as well. If clubs came out looking like a disaster through the show, almost no club would ever agree to have the cameras around.
You would think, given it's basically PR, the club would try and tell their side of the story with respect to them not playing the NLD.
Given there's not even that level of coverage of it, it must have been exactly as embarrassing as we are all imagining.
One less episode to sit through then.
How humiliating for them to not even touch on one of the most controversial moments in their season.
A spectacular PR own goal because everyone in the football world will know now that it had fuck all to do with Covid and everything to do with them not fancying it.

hardly surprising..it makes it look like they were running scared ...lol
Won't go hard as they need other clubs to agree to the next one they film, its always going to be sympathetic
I bet they gloss over it completely.....
Then cue the Woolwich fans thinking they've got some kind of victory becauae it wasn't shown in the doc.
