🖥️❌ There will be no VAR in Sweden.

🤝 After members of most clubs in Sweden adopted motions opposing VAR, Svensk Fotboll will no longer pursue its introduction.

🗳️ This is a big win for membership democracy in Swedish football & shows the influences supporters have. 1/2

Incredible never-before-seen footage of The Beatles on Ready Steady Go from October 1963.

Plus cameos from Helen Shapiro and Dusty Springfield

Man City & Arsenal have broken free and are running loose through the Premier League.

And this?

Man United are losing to Sheffield United.
They are doing it for Coventry.

The Premier League is like Margaret Thatcher's government. 'Trust us to sell everything you already own and the future will be yours!'
Calculated, cynical capitalism.

Papa don't preach I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, I'm keeping my baby...

I'll see the football out then up to bed to get stuck into this.
Nige Tassell is just the person for this momentous task.

Good Evening, Everyone!
For old times sake and to show that not all the records went off to auction...
(Which is in the first week of June BTW)

We have handed over football to a faceless unaccountable backstage panel. Just like show business was handed over to X Factor judges or inventors made to meekly parade before Dragon's Den.
Money. It has nothing to do with creativity and everything to do with corporate control.

Maddest thing about fans of whatever 'Big 6' we're being sold by TV at the moment, is that most of their fans think we - supporters of other teams - wish we were them.
They genuinely do. Like rappers with bling or Tories with their property portfolios - they think we envy them.

I truly think the FA Cup Final is now being staged for a largely overseas TV audience.
Very few football fans in England give two fucks who wins out of the two Manchester sides playing each other over and over again.

Funnily enough I have been writing on this very subject for the last few weeks at patreon.com/dannybaker

How amazing is this??! 🫢

People who say 'even a toenail is offside' under the current rules probably applauded the police arresting sunbathers during Covid under 'the current rules'.
Get a sense of what's right you creeps.
Coventry should be in the FA Cup Final.

Ever since the early days of 606 I have said the ONLY people who PAY to be at football matches are the fans.
Players, board, officials, media, hangers on all get in free.
Yet the people who get paid to be there have the biggest say in what happens.
End VAR now. Or risk revolt.

Football supporters - the people who actually pay to be at matches every week - want VAR gone.
The football establishment - people who have not paid to attend matches their whole lives - defend VAR and make excuses for it.
That's the simple facts of the matter.

VAR is hated. Why are we trying to placate a small number of people who have always been wrong?

Should’ve been one of the greatest moments in FA cup history, but some bloke sat in a booth near the M4 with a fancy protractor said nah, your big toe is too big. Fcuk VAR & everyone who thinks it’s been good for this game #FaCup

That is not offside. It just isn’t, and it’s sure as fuck not clear and obvious. At best it’s open to interpretation. So it’s basically whatever decision you want it to be. And this is where the favouritism, bias and corruption come in. This isn’t a fair game anymore.
