第一篇大意是诉说自己心中滴痛苦和挣扎,还扯出了1915年的老黄历;第二篇指责大卫戴恩不该兼任足总副主席
Dear Sirs,
Many apologies if this email seems a tad patronising, but I'm unaware of how well you know you're history. So I'd like to start by telling you about a series of events that occured many years before the conception of the Premiership, Richard Scudamore and David Dein.
Back in 1915, English football was corrupt. Very corrupt. Match fixing was rife, and it was apparent that the authorities would rather sweep it under the table than deal with it head on. The eventual outcome was the final match of the season between Manchester United and Liverpool, that was not only obviously fixed, but also resulted in Manchester United staying up, and forcing Chelsea into the relegation zone.
The other obvious corruption that occured at the same time involved an Arsenal chairman with huge power within the football league, Sir Henry Norris. Through a lot of "dodgy dealing" he managed to have his Arsenal promoted from 6th position in the 2nd Division, at the expense of the relegated THFC. This was also acheived at the expense of Barnsley, Wolves and Birmingham who finished 3rd, 4th and 5th respectively in the 2nd Division.
You might wonder why I am retelling this story. Bent Arsenal Chairman heavily involved with the governing body, corruption, match fixing, Arsenal benefitting, THFC losing out. Ring any bells?
My question, for which I would very much appreciate a response, is whether you believe this kind of thing still happens? Does the football league still look after favourable clubs, at the expense of others? If the whole Arsenal team had suffered a similar fate as Tottenham did over this weekend, will you honestly tell me that Dein and Scudamore would have had the same approach?
I also wanted to tell you that a little bit of the game I love died this weekend. It's my personal feeling that football took a further step towards a WWF style fixed event, with the authorities deciding the results in advance. I will no doubt still watch next season, but some of the love has definitely gone, along with all the respect I had for the Premier League authorities.
I eagerly await your reply.
Kind Regards,
另一篇,藕们滴大卫戴恩同志惨遭炮轰
To: The Football Association Conflicting interests in football
Why is it allowed that a chairman of Arsenal Football club in the Premier League is allowed to be vice-chairman of the Football Association. I am of course talking about David Dein. He is also a member of UEFA's executive committee, he clearly is a either a very talented man or or man with friends in high places. I am starting this petition to get David removed from the F.A's Board, I believe and many other people have said to me that it is wrong that a chair man of any football club should be on the board of the association which controls English football from the Premier League right down to sunday league football. How any one can say that there cant be a conflict in interest between the running of the league and the running of his own football club is beyond me, he will always want whats best for Arsenal as they pay the majority of his wages. there are two soultions to this problem, either they appoint Every chair man of the Permier league to the F.A board or they simply replace David Dein with some one who has no other interests in football other then being a supporter of a team which most people are anyway. I know that the Premier league chairmen meet every month at the F.A but having a Top premier league clubs chair man second at the helm to me is a disgrace.
Incidents that I have seen over the past few months to back up my argument include:-
1)Theo Walcott included in Sven Goran ericksson world cup sqaud when the 17 year old kid has not even played a First team game for his new club which just happens to be Arsenal. Co-incedence?
2)Tottenham Hotspur struck down by a suspicous bout of food poisioning just 24 hours before their biggest game in 15 years, Spurs ask for game to be put back by a day so that the players get a chance to recover, the F.A say that Spurs can only put the game back an hour. The medical staff at Tottenham know that this is pointless. Spurs need to match Arsenal's Result to be sure of finsihing 4th in the Premier League. Spurs lose two one while Arsenal win 4-2
Co-incedence?
3)Arsene Wenger not even approached for the England managers job. one of the top managers in the world who has proven himself at many levels across the world was not even considered for the prestigous hounour of being named as the England manager, Scolari is approached, Curbishley is approached, Allerdyce is approached, McClaren is approached and Eventually given Job.
Arsene Wenger is The Manager of Arsenal F.C.
Co-incedence?
I urge you to sign this petition so that the Football Association take notice of the Most important people in football, You the supporters, with out you the game of football would be nothing, its time we stood and demand for a fair and impartial appointment, Someone who does not have his fingers in any other pies.
Someone who will do whats best for footballand not for his other interests.
Sincerely,
