Comments on: Premiership Boring? Ask The Supporters of Halifax Town http://www.boyfrombrazil.co.uk/2008/05/11/premiership-boring-ask-the-supporters-of-halifax-town/ Bradford City News Since 1998 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 17:12:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Matthew Hague http://www.boyfrombrazil.co.uk/2008/05/11/premiership-boring-ask-the-supporters-of-halifax-town/#comment-34 Matthew Hague Wed, 14 May 2008 08:39:46 +0000 http://www.boyfrombrazil.co.uk/?p=188#comment-34 At last some more people mentioning how the Premiership is just madness realised. The money on wages is just sick. I don't care who you are and how well you play but £130,000 a week is gross. Apart from the fact that clubs like Halifax are going to the wall while this is happening what about the rest of the world? People the world over are poor, below poor. People are dying and have no food. Struggling to get by day by day even in our own country and one man is earning £130,0000 a week? What can one person do with all this money? I mean come on I know we can all think of ways to spend it i suppose but a week? No way. It’s all gone wrong. The haves and the have nots. I have no problem with athletes being paid decent amounts of money to entertain us each week because that’s really what footballers are now, entertainers but it all feels out of control. Like something has gone wrong. I remember the government trying to say something about this when i happened but they just tailed off like they do. No power in their voice. Probably suits them in the long run to make that much tax. Even they were like whoa. I think this article hits it on the head when it says that it is Thatcherism gone mad because it is. The premier league is boring. It’s full of dull dimwits whose eyes are firmly on the cash prize. I know city are down in league two I am teetering on the edge of sounding jealous but I really don’t know what we as a club now need to aspire to. It’s great currently having this battle on to climb up the football league and better ourselves but it seems a hollow thing to do eventually if your only reward is the premier league. Watching Beckham et all at valley parade was great. I enjoyed it but its hollow really isn’t it. It’s just like meeting your fav stars really. That’s all it is. And that’s how it feels afterwards. I don't know what the answer is but I’ve had it with the premier league. Ps I read the guardian a bit and i am sick and tired with this other fascination at the moment. the ownership of British clubs and the Premier League. That is the only football they cover. There is so much more out there that it beggars belief. That paper has got it morals all screwed up. At last some more people mentioning how the Premiership is just madness realised.
