Your Top 5 Most Hated in Football

Had this debate in a what's app group recently - your most top 5 most hated in football. At first, we went with the obvious Richarlisons etc and all five being Rodgers. 

 

However, I stopped and thought it through. I think top level football is at its most unenjoyable ever. Going to the game you are faced with silly kick-offs times making it impossible to use public transport, over the top searches and an increasing trend of nobs hyped up on coke. Watching it there are far too many games leading to knackered players whom play scrappy, brainless football or overly protective possession style. When teams do have some attacking style, the ills of modern football cut it off. Alas I am addicted and part of the problem. 

 

My top five were:-

 

1) Florentino Perez - his constant pushing for an European Super League because his club don't burn through enough money as it is. He never really had an issue when they dominated European football in the mid 2000s. 

 

2) Nasser Al-Khelaifi - alongside creating the monster of PSG - he's now worming himself deep inside ECA and he's managed to quietly get PSG off punishment from breaking rules. 

 

3) Jorge Mendes - could have picked any of these super agents but they have rotten the game. His involvement with Figo put the game backwards substantially. 

 

4) Sepp Blatter - took FIFA to new levels of corruption which has pretty much f**ked the World Cup for the short and medium term. 

 

5) Now I considered Abrahmovic for breaking the void when it came to cashing clubs - however its Rick Parry, the first chairman of the Premier League which set us on a course to the sport being a slave to television.

1 - Todd Boehely. A dispicable tw@, who thinks he can do what he wants because he’s minted. 
 

2 - Barcelona. Cheats, in every sense. On the pitch, and how they’re managing to sign players when they still owe players money, constant breaches of financial rules. They get away with murder. 
 

3 - Klopp. Primarily when things aren’t going his way. Petulant, childish, arrogant, rude. 
 

4 - Danny Murphy - seems to hate us for no real reason. Never has anything good to say about us. Always trying to make cases for our players to move on. 
 

5 - VAR - Just get rid of it. Or at least get rid of it until there’s a way that can be found using it properly. If it takes longer than a minute to make a decision using it then the original decision should stand.

1) Dennis Wise - Sorry its a Leicester cliché but I can't get over the vindictive poisonous little twerp trying to put us out of business because he felt wronged

2) Sepp Blatter - no explanation needed!

3) Ian Holloway - probably unfair but I despise his chirpy attitude as we sank lower and lower and then coming back revistalised with a whole new playing style afterwards at Blackpool

4) Jurgen Klopp - find him to be the most self righteous irritating fake hypocritical manager around

5) Roy Keane - a horrible, vicious and vindictive man who has made a career of being a bully and at times deliberately injuring other players which is unforgiveable. (The likes of Ben Thatcher, Karl Henry and Kevin Muscat could also come in this category but Keane's the most famous)

1 Substitutes made after 85 minutes for time wasting purposes. I'd make a law banning all subs after 80 minutes.

2. Barcelona, for the reasons given above, plus they try to virtue pose as "more than a club".

3. Sepp Blatter

4. Dennis Wise

5. Whoever puts together those "line graphics" on the box.

Football hatred shouldn't be rational though. Like Man City are currently the dodgiest club probably in English football history but I can't hate them more than Liverpool or United. Same with the players you listed - yeah they've done abhorrent things but are they really worse than Danny Murphy on MOTD?

- Greed among football owners, administrators (esp. FIFA) and players

- Feigning of injuries, time-wasting & petty fouling

- That European Nations bollocks

- Whiney, blinkered managers (Mark Hughes the worst I remember) & vaccuous PR-bullshit managers (can't think of one just now :whistle:)

- Chelsea, Bournemouth, Everton, Norway, Fisher Athletic & other exceptionally annoying teams

Greed. By every stakeholder 

- mbappe >€1m a week and still whining when he’s made it clear all he cares about in life is money 

- Haaland dad getting $20m and agent $40m as part of his transfer 

- 24 team euros and 48 team World Cup LOL

- uefa nations league (who actually follows this tournament) 

- broadcasters fighting each other over tv slots

VAR - It's an absolute disaster for the game. It's done absolutely minimal good and absolutely loads of bad, and yet for some reason this thing that was brought in only as a trial, shambolic from the start, ended up as a permanent fixture? The one plus to relegation would be getting away from this although you just know it'll be next year where it poisons the football league too.

We have a winner.

 

This is what pretty much all the above commentary comes back to.

Not entirely sure Leicester's first FA Cup win ever being at least partially reliant upon it qualifies as "minimal" TBH.

There is another way. The top 5 things I love in football in 2022.

 

1. Coalville Town

2. Watching Tom McGlinchey dribble with the football.

3. Being allowed to have a beer pitch side and wander around the ground.

4. Journeying to unknown grounds in distant lands.

5. Seeing dogs at the football.
