I'm not sure that people really understand the depth of corruption in our game, how evil some of this is, or how high this shit is within our our institutions, maybe even up to government level.
At the bottom end, some agents are tied to managers, clubs and players.
A player can be tied with his agent for his whole career and that is where his loyalty lies, rather than his club. It is the agent that gets him his transfer payouts, signing on fees and negotiates his wages. A player is often at a club for a short time. agents linked to the illegal gambling organisations have great leverage over their clients.
Agents can be tied to managers who get a kickback from the agent if they sign a player from that agents' stable.
Penalties, throw ins, free kicks even that keeper eating a pie shows how far into the minutiae of the game their tentacles can reach.
Clubs riddled with debt, throwing matches for a fee.
Gambling organisations who own or sponsor clubs have a large financial vested interest.
The Premier League is beholden to the global TV broadcasters who put £ billions into the game. Not simply the power they have on a weekly basis to change dates and times of kick offs, but the vested interest of needing certain clubs to be delivered for those big end of season games which bring in £ Billions of commercial revenue and sales. Even Scudamore alluded to this not long ago referring to the financial benefits of the rags being successful.
POGMOL are a private company, meaning there is now a distance between them and the FA, Who to blame if the shit hits the fan? POGMOL select the officials for each game but have the perfect set up. They cannot be questioned nor criticised at pain of being sanctioned, fine or ban. The refs are not allowed to comment and are completely protected from the public scrutiny.
Clubs who are owned by offshore accounts, beyond the legal requirements and reach of British Law and regulations.
The Fit and Proper Test for individuals that has seen clubs owned by totally unfit and improper persons.
Clubs who are owned by asset stripping organisations, dragging finance from the club for their own profits.
The sponsors and partners who want their pound of financial flesh. Their shirt logos need to be flashed up on televised games and the bigger the game the better. Emirates v Etihad in the Emirates Cup Final anyone?
Club, owners, player betting on certain games.
It was alleged that one World renowned club manager left the club because he refused to comply with his chairman's instruction to notify him of the team selection for the next day's game.
And then finally, there is the evil matter of child trafficking from developing nations, where youngsters are bought and sold with no regard for their well being, but only the cash that can be earned from their trading.
ROTTEN TO THE CORE FROM TOP TO FUCKING BOTTOM.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU THINK I WROTE, BUT I AM NOT SURE YOU REALISE THAT WHAT YOU READ IS NOT WHAT I MEANT
