You are Jamie Jackson and I claim my £5
Wrong thread Jamo
I beg your pardon, this can not be allowed to stand. I demand satisfaction, Pistols at dawn.
Jamie Jackson is a truly terrible journalist. His articles are a mixture of whatever the last person said to him, and cutting and pasting from press releases. His biggest crime I think is that despite this he thinks he is a serious journalist. If I were looking to try and find out what happened, I would pay a lot more attention to Sid Lowe, who does some work for Realmadrid.com. If he's writing an article that gently says that Real madrid are talking incoherent nonsense, then that has a certain amount of value, when trying to figure out what happened.
When trying to pick through something like that though, it's worth having an open mind, and remembering that Man utd aren't the only arsehole club in the world, and that when it comes to batshit insane gobshitery english clubs can't hold a candle to the big spanish clubs. It's always worth remembering that under the surface of serene polished fame and glory, that Barcelona and Real Madrid are seething cauldrons of insanity, and pointless interpersonal fighting, with footballing decisions being made for political or commercial reasons.
I think that we should probably remember that Football journalism is basically those columns you see in newspapers covering Soap Operas, except for men. Jose Mourinho is dirty den, sam allardyce is phil mitchell, Brendan rodgers is Alfie Moon, alex ferguson is peggy mitchell, er and I suppose that arsene wenger is dot cotton.
