This is why the media are desperate for Poch to join United

[Tottenham Sean]

I haven't paid a Sky subscription for at least 15 years. Fucking home for retired and senile and incontinent old Gooners and Dippers. Fuck them.

Sky have created a generation of fucking social media and keyboard warriors. Cunts that take iPads to games and buy half and half scarves and love a bit of soccer ball.

From the Company that brought you Deadline day - The Movie....
Hate em with a passion,but they as good as own football these days.

 

[Mensa]

I have been to someone's leaving do and ready to rumble. Where the fuck is the coke head Gooner when you need him.

Let the big 5 fuck off and join their European Super League. Tottenham til I die.

Too fucking right, wish I met you at the lane that time 2/3 years ago, I feel my life would have been better for it

 

[Bazali]

Don't stop on my account, I'm muttering a few expletives of my own with all the shenanigans going on at the moment. Fiddlesticks to them all!

“Fiddlesticks “????

That’s a bit strong Mrs P!!

 

[Bazali]

I knocked sky on the head just as we were getting more air time 2,3 seasons ago typical but still don’t regret it or miss it....

I can see yours and Nutters points but I subscribe as there is no other way I can watch the footy
Other than a dodgy stream or down the pub with a bunch of twats

 

[Airfixx]

'Dodgy' streams (not the grief it's made out to be esp. as we're often not televised) + a half a dozen match tickets each season > Dodgy Sky and their cuntery for £60 a month.

No brainer for me.

 

[Wellsey]

Levy saw this coming, a massive 5 year contract at £8m per year?
How much more money is going to make you happier?
His son is playing in our youth ranks.
Hopefully his missus will have the final say...cold, wet, no Harrods dump of a city!

Interestingly, immediately as mourinho was sacked I got the usual notification from sky sports on phone, so obviously was straight in there and in the article was an advert for sky bet, next Utd manager, Poch was 20/1 but within 5 mins Neville was piping up and by the end of the day it was like it was a done deal, this certainly lends some credibility to this conspiracy, almost like someone at sky bet went 'Poch? No chance, happy at spurs, turned down Madrid, (plus inside info etc) 20/1 then the boss got on the phone and said throw everything behind the Poch to utd story...mmmmmmm

It’s probably a big conspiracy theory (but who doesn’t love one of those?) but what is intriguing about your post is that sky bet (& the other sites) have been slashing the odds on an hourly basis as Sky sports news have been ramping up the “Poch to United” story. You noticed it happening on your app, with the cunningly places advert for their betting site, all lined up with the current odds. He’s as short as 11/8 in places now. Haven’t seen (haven’t looked) at what the odds are of him staying put, but would guess they will be similar.
Personally, I think Zidane at 9/1 is a bloody amazing bet.

I agree that the whole thing stinks of 'corruption', but not involving Sky Bet. Sky don't own Sky Bet any more - they held 20% of the company until this year and sold that in April. So given the process that Sky Bet went through when the company was sold I doubt they need a fraud investigation any more than any other on-line betting company. It's simply a biased relationship between Man U and Sky.

Stelling still the poster boy of their adverts.
Kamara been heavily linked with Ladbrokes.
Both employed by Sky sports as presenters and pundits. It stinks. I’ll make you right there.

They have history with this, in May with Woolwich was ridiculous, they made everyone believe and bet that Arteta was going to become the new manager, sprinkled the markets with others like Rodgers and Allegri, probably knowing full well Emery in the frame but making him look a rank outsider

[Totti]

Pochettino was 5/4 to be new Real Madrid manager just a month ago..

Leave them be. It's even funnier when he stays.

 

[Jimnyg]

The only way to fight back is cancelling your Sky subscription. No good moaning about their agenda if you're paying them exorbitant amounts of money each month. I'm Sky free now and it's invigorating, fuck em.

I totally 100% agree, however there's no way I'm cancelling sky! There in lies the problem, the same as everything in life, the busses where I live are a disgrace, late, don't turn up, ALL staff hideously rude, complain... Nothing happens, why? Monopoly, in bed with the council, will never lose the gig, so therefore in a sad reflection of this world we live in, revert to type, fuck everyone else, as long as I'm ok. In fairness I only discovered the level of seedyness through this thread in the last hour, but I am completely sports mad, nothing else gets a look in, other than swimming or anything with horses, I'll watch anything. Fair play to you for binning them off, I will certainly reconsider as soon as the seasons over and the ashes and all the golf majors are done, probably just wait til the darts world championship 2019 is done, then I'll have a think about it!!

It’s also generating huge money in the betting markets. Imagine how much money punters (who are being told by Sky this is a “done deal”) stand to lose if Poch isn’t at United come the start of next season? And Sky of course have a massive betting site in their inventory. Easy way of generating a nice little earner innit? Media controlled campaign that leaves Poch a heavy favourite, all the while knowing he’s contracted for years & most likely isn’t even interested in that poisoned chalice.

This is how I prefer to see it all anyway.

It's not really even a conspiracy theory, it's a bit like the Energy providers and the accusation of a cartel. Everyone knows they collude (whichever way they choose to do it) to keep bumping up the price of energy. Its capitalism gone bad.

Yep, people who coo about a slave state or kleptocrat spunking billions on their playthings as being "good for the game". Of course it fucking isn't you dribbling simpleton

 

[pointSPUR]

Don't forget Sky once tried to buy United.

Chill chill chill my friend!!! None of us know the future, yes we all.want Poch to stay of course we do, but if, god forbid, he was in a serious car accident tomorrow and couldn't carry on, would you feel the same? It's the raw emotion of your girlfriend leaving you for the bloke down the pub you've always thought was a tosser. If he went, what is to say that levy wouldn't go out and get us the next big thing like he did when he got Poch, who is not wanting the tottenham job with the position we will be in? Best stadium in Europe, established in top 4 of PL, the bad old days are long gone my friend and although the loss of the manager would be a huge blow, we are a very different club from that one that bent over and took it from everyone 10 years ago

Yes totally agree we are a different club from ten years ago,5 years ago even and I’m sure the Tottenham job will be an attractive prospect if it comes to pass it’s available but there’s no need for that scenario we have a manager a good one we have a good squad as you say a new stadium which will be arguably the best in Europe but what I’m getting at is why should we roll over and let the Man Utd,real Madrid’s of this worlds cherrypick our manager,players,back room staff just cos theyre “bigger” fuck that we as fans pay the going rate supporting our team, money and time and not forgetting the emotional side of supporting your team,are we not aloud a winning team? Bare in mind the fuckwits that latch on to the likes of United or Madrid are plastic tourists that haven’t a clue who even plays for them let alone the clubs history! Why should clubs like us suffer just to let them prosper.NO

 

[Bazali]

A great way to deal with this is to see it for what it is.
And that is basically:

A Times journalist said Poch wants to go, and his paper has proceeded to fly the flag of fake news for him
A Sky journalist was made to look like a cunt while Poch laughed in his face
Carragher thinks he should join Utd
Neville thinks he should join Utd

Thats really about it, from what I can see.

Fuck em all

He’s staying

COYS

Fair enough it's a personal choice, i thought i would miss it but have found i like being free of them.

Would that be the Aspall’s variety?

I had a Cornish Rattler earlier

Started with a couple of pints of Thatcher's and then we went to some trendy boozer over Farringdon way and had a pint of something else (no idea what) but the music was so loud I couldn't hear myself think so left after that.

Left the twenty and thirty somethings to get on with it.

Twats down the pub Noooooooooo plus that works even more expensive than having sky in the first place unless you can suck on one pint glass for a whole game??? Live streaming I’ve been quite lucky with that plus the live commentary via the fighting cock match threads now they’re an experience that money can’t buy!
