Liverpool’s sponsor @TribusWatches who ostentatiously curtailed their partnership last night, have overlooked actually going through with it on their website: tribus-watches.com/pages/liverpoo…
What contractual grounds would they have anyway?
Still, all good publicity for a start-up.
🤔
It’s a very good question.
And the lack of punishment that likely results will tell its own tale.
And that’s before we consider The Times’ claim that founding clubs would receive from £89m to £310m for signing up.
It defies logic that any club involved (except Spurs) would accept receiving £220m lower than others from the off, with further huge payment disparities to come.
John Barnes one of the first media talking heads to provide a different - and incisive! - perspective:
Woodward's stewardship at Old Trafford can probably be summed up by the following tale, which occurred long after he twice pulled out of scheduled interviews with your super soaraway RI at the last minute (heeding the advice of Comms Director Phil Townsend not to go ahead)...
Fast forward to a deserted Hilton bar in Cardiff, the night before the 2017 CL final: Our correspondent is catching up with a couple of pals when a coachload of drunken UEFA delegates walk in, W'ward and Gill among them.
"Not in here, mate" pleaded our man's drinking company.
Of all the seats in all the bars in all the world, W'ward opts to perch himself on the back of the one our chap is sitting in, whereupon he chirps up, "Oh, it's Woodward!"
He turns round, gurning, expecting to be asked for a selfie. "Get yourself off my seat, you wanker!"
It’s time, time to expose @WebbyONeill and his treacherous collaborations with Ed Woodward and the Glazers.
He has spent 16 years clamping down on fan dissent, to the extent that suspicion was widespread that he stuck people’s names in to Cheshire Police.
Read on...
The whole sorry tale has long been laid out in the pgs of @RedRebels2005 - a Penguin publication that underwent intensive legal readings.
The Purple Army Corporal consulted a solicitor about its contents but slumped off when informed he can’t take a libel case out on the truth.
In 2010 when the Glazer Bond issue inspired the Green & Gold protests, @WebbyONeill hijacked a public meeting to insist that “yes something must be done” but that “no, not just yet.”
It had the effect of stifling momentum. Just what the Glazers and Woodward would have wanted 🤔
As promised, a further update on fancams, their links to established media such as TalkSport, the connivance of supposedly 'proper' journalists in their cretinous output, and the involvement of grasping members of football's Twatocracy...
Last Thurs @UnitedStandMUFC's 'rantsnbants' was invited on TalkSport to discuss the growing hostility to fancams. Quite a coup for a barely-literate moron to be given such a stage - if you ignore all the corporate links between TalkSport and fancam world:
@UnitedStandMUFC We've previously pointed out 'rants' is basically a Murdoch puppet, whilst TalkSport is also owned by NewsCorp. Hence they were happy to grant fancams what was basically a 15min advert-cum-puff piece, dressed up as an 'attack' on TalkSport's Simon Jordan: talksport.com/radio/listen-a…
We recently looked at the ludicrous @FullTimeDEVILS, which pretends to be a fan-run entity when it's a construct of @rtlgroup's Freemantle Media. Below we'll delve into the equally fake @UnitedStandMUFC
@FullTimeDEVILS@rtlgroup@UnitedStandMUFC Very few people willingly leave the police, and then usually only if they've seriously misbehaved or have a very lucrative offer elsewhere. Companies House accounts show 'Goldbridge' fan channel was sitting on a £50,000 cash pile as of late-2018.
