Why Fixing Footie is Feckin' Flawed
We all understand that agents, and indeed all middle people, are leeches on the sport of football,
grabbing their inflated percentages while skirting between the black and grey markets, bribing and
threatening people and corrupting the game.
They force players to adhere to certain match data as basic sabermetrics measures the obvious, they
enter into third party arrangements and other forms of disguised dual ownership of players to
confuse both the footballing authorities and the tax regime, they control aspects of the media
sometimes psychopathically so, and many persuade players to underperform so that insider gambles
may be achieved on what the fan thinks is an authentic football match.
