Friendly reminder Danny Simpson said this about Mark Clattenburg after Leicester city beat Arsenal to the league in 15/16.
They’re all part of the same little circle. Cheats.
MIKE DEAN’S SECRET PREMIER LEAGUE GAMES
Ex-Premier League referee Mike Dean admits he used to play secret mini-games on the pitch while officiating top-flight matches.
Mike Dean: “We used to say, ‘Right, we'll kick off now, right? See how long we can go without blowing a whistle.’ Done that a few times in the Premier, before VAR obviously. 20–25 minutes without blowing a whistle a few times.”
“I used to stand in the center circle and see how long I could stay in the center circle before I had to leave.”
Josh James: “Got about 15 minutes once in one game without leaving the center circle.”
Mike Dean: “Easy money.”

As far as I am aware this is what has been going on. Arsenal were interested in Fernandes / Tonali / Pablo Barrios (exclusive). When Tonali was offered to us at the end of January, it peaked everyone's interest at the club. Berta kept in contact as did City. It became clear the deal was not feasible due to Newcastle wanting £85m or even more. To further add, the agent fees are incroyable. Barrios was not available for several reasons. Fernandes is heavily involved with Jorge Mendes and it became quickly apparent that there would be a bidding war at a minimum of £85m. It has now even been stated, 'whoever pays the most can have him'.
Berta then made contact multiple times to explore the situation of Alex Scott, the interest is real and there was a feeling a potential bargain could be secured around £65m. Bournemouth began to panic while Alex Scott was out in the USA with the England pre camp and want to rush to secure a renewal for Scott with a possible release clause. Their stance currently is he is not for sale at any price.
Is it becoming apparent we have approximated budget for the midfielder? (Investing in other areas)
As for Bruno G let me clarify… Berta made contact with his camp via Kia. A loose offer below £60m was floated to Newcastle via these middle men to understand their appetite for any deal. Newcastle say he is not for sale. Kia being involved is something you must keep an eye on for reasons every Arsenal fan should be aware of. When an offer is serious, it is officially submitted to the club hence me saying Newcastle have had no contact yet from Arsenal as of 9am. Newcastle will not lose both of their midfielders, so maybe Berta tried a cheeky offer before the Tonali deal has gone through. Until a serious offer is presented or our budget changes, we wait.
Arsenal have contacted the likes of Bouaddi / Kone and others I don’t want to discuss yet but no one else is providing these step by step updates and its incredibly exhausting. Personally think Bouaddi or Bruno would be incredible.

🗣️ “Arsenal are progressing because there is an identity, a formula to the way they play. Mikel deserves a lot of praise.” 👏

Oracle is such a terrible, evil, slime company it borders some sort of twisted black comedy skit.
During the beginning of the Trump administration Larry Ellison discussed building some sort of super-AI system and said it would create as much as 100,000 jobs in the United States
Fast forward, March 2026, Oracle lays off 30,000 people. 30,000 people is an absolutely insane number. Oracle sent out at email at 6am to 30,000 people which were selected using some sort "selective process", which was a computer program, or something, I don't know.
You go online and see people who have worked at Oracle for over 30 years being terminated. People who have had great reviews, sacrificed for the company, ... someone there was terminated and began working at Oracle in 1993.
1993 - 2026 and then terminated by a decision from a computer program while the United States economy is already sliding into the pisser, with inflation, housing crisis, government assistance cuts, gas prices raising, and companies creating hiring freezes
Then today it's announced Oracle has put in H1B requests for approx. 3,000 employees from overseas
What a fucking piece of shit fucking company.

Michael Manley’s love for Jamaica, and his friendship with Castro, is why the CIA destabilized Jamaica. They did it by sending in an “economic hitman” (there’s a documentary about it on YouTube) and by arming inner-city youths with guns, which helped spark a bloody political election. Before that, there were no guns in Jamaica, and the Jamaican dollar was equal in value to the U.S. dollar.
That eventually cascaded into a CIA-backed drug trade involving Jamaican gangsters who were given visas to New York. This later fueled the “Posse Wars” between Black American drug lords and rival Jamaican factions (Shower Posse and Spranglers Posse). There’s also an episode on the show American Gangsters on this. Shower Posse alone were responsible for 1500 murders in NY and Miami in the 80s during the height of the drug trade.
Some of those same factions were also involved in the attempted assassination of Bob Marley, shooting him several times (Jim Brown is the culprit. Long story on him, who the government ended up double-crossing and killing). Bob Marley was pushing unity and peace in the midst of the CIA orchestrated political violence. Right as he planned a peace concert between the two warring political factions, he was shot the day before the concert. A plot to silence a respected voice who the people would listen to.
The violence and destabilization of so many Third World countries isn’t accidental. It’s often a system engineered to create dependence on the United States, steal their resources and keep people focused inward, fighting each other, which ultimately weakens both the population and the country itself.
