So funny to see english fans argue who the worst team is in their league. Meanwhile, football is fucked anyway and its a business first and a sport second, so no matter if its the Saudis sportwashing or an American pumping billions into it, the image of that pure, innocent and local football sport is long gone.

I mean... Tottenham are one of the more sustainable and less shady premier league clubs, and Joe Lewis is far from a moral and stand-up fellow.

No private entity with the money to own a top flight club got there by being decent.

Lewis is absolute scum, but most of the damage he does is outside football

It's the same like when people constantly complain that UEFA competitions are "greedy, only money, they only want big clubs" etc., but then we have Champions League games and 99,9% of the attention is for the big clubs lol. The small clubs only exist to be the background for them. But when asked in general, they hate that "greedy UEFA" thinks like that completely unlike the fans.

Omfg, people who are the best in the world at doing something very popular are making money off it, this is so dystopian and I am such a victim that I am forced to suffer through this.
