Darkzzz_ Posted 23 January 2009 Posted 23 January 2009 I think it disappeared a long while ago. That was my dig, goodbye to the tiny bit that is left. Not a fan of Milan Mandarić then? No I want to blast his brains out.

Buy football club. Invest fook all of your own money into it, use 300 million pound loan taken out on the club. Win absolutely nothing. Realise you can't afford to pay back that loan, sell to a Kuwaiti billionaire. Make 332 million pounds profit.
lookwhaticando Posted 23 January 2009 Posted 23 January 2009 League One is the new English Premiership. At this level there's little foreignness compared to the divisions above. Ace.
Uncle Albert Posted 23 January 2009 Posted 23 January 2009 Fairplay Liverpool and Chelsea. Now all the players will want to sign for them instead of them twats at Eastlands.
CSKA SOFIA Posted 23 January 2009 Posted 23 January 2009 Fairplay Liverpool and Chelsea. Now all the players will want to sign for them instead of them twats at Eastlands. I don't want arabian for charmain of Liverpool, because it'll be hilarious.And also, I think that English government should make a law about this problem with foreign charmains.It'll be better for English football and his magic.
Thracian Posted 23 January 2009 Posted 23 January 2009 Football has long sold its soul to the highest bidder, any pretence of a fair competition has disappeared. Much of the romance of football is being eroded too and I firmly believe it will all end in tears for English-born players and for the game in this country eventually. Perhaps sooner rather than later.

Perhaps sooner rather than later. I agree, so many coming into buying clubs thinking they will make money but all they do is put the club at more risk but at same time pumps up transfer fees and player wages to the point where the smaller clubs have to start taking risks and if any of them go down like charlton did and then if you not go straight back up there is only one way it seems and thats down, won't be long before a team thats been in the premier league goes out buisness
