As Portsmouth FC find themselves in court with a hefty tax bill and large debts (as well as being sued by former players) one is left quizzing where it all went wrong.
A club of over 100 years has now succumbed to the disease that is festering within the whole premiere league. That of Greed.
The death of football came about when satellite TV bought all the TV rights and then players became celebrities and demanded astronomical salaries. Games are now scheduled to coincide with the requests of Asian Gambling syndicates who have more interest in football than we do.
Manchester Utd are reported to have debts of over £700m. No business can survive like this. (Unless your a bank and can get 'subsidised' by the government)
I empathise with the portsmouth fans but as football goes I couldnt care less.
.
Good to see them beat the other team at the weekend tho!
