Hold the back page, batten down the hatches, holy smoke, by Jove, by George, cripes, golly gosh, good grief, jeepers creepers, Jiminy Cricket, OMG, bloody Nora, flippin’ heck, goodness gracious! Whisper it, but we might just have a Premier League title race on our hands.
If you want to look at what the future brings for football (or golf, y’know, if you care), with where the money comes from now, whatever you think of that, look at what happened when that same money came to Formula One. It must be good, mustn’t it, because it’s so expensive, and brilliantly technically executed, and you are sharing the lifestyle. Yet despite this, it’s tedious, repetitive, predictable and empty, cares little for the concept of ‘underdog’, it has the authenticity of a baseball cap with a Louis Vuitton logo, and the joy of trudging through a gilded mall looking at the same shops as everyone everywhere, thinking you must be big-time because you are being fleeced of so much cash. Perhaps, you start to feel that someone else is taking this thing you love from you and is making you pay just to press your nose against the window of their private box. And they aren’t even watching the game. Very odd that Manchester ‘just keep it in the corner, lads, we could still stay up’ City were the Trojan horse in all this. I say ‘you’ because I support Bradford Park Avenue, and that can’t get much worse, tbh” – Jon Millard.
It’s good to see that the Football Weekly podcast has managed to get some well-deserved coverage on … Big Website. Perhaps they will also manage to get a Big Website audio long read of the article about the podcast and potentially Big Website could even do a Big Podcast on the audio long read of the article about the podcast, especially given that Big Website’s podcast currently seems to have an entire episode on a tree” – Noble Francis.
