bannedfromHandV Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Rooney's move to Derby tied into sponsorship deal with one of the many betting companies. I like the occasional flutter so maybe I'm hypocritical but I think betting has become far too synonymous with football and it's making it so normal for kids. There's a betting epidemic in this country, you need only look at the growth of the plethora of betting companies currently operating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he is wearing number 32. The question is now how long before players are effectively owned entirely by corporations and are simply 'lent' to football clubs? I have no idea how all this ties into the banned third-party ownership of players but it seems like another variation the same sort of thing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like their pursuit of Coutinho it was all for show, they never had any intention of signing either of those players. Spurs don't have the money to compete with the real top teams, especially when they have a billion pound stadium to pay for. They are the new Arsenal and soon Ponchettino will be talking about the 4th place "trophy". Edited August 9, 2019 by villa89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not suggesting he faked anything, just pointing out that he has managed to attend his sister's party in Brazil 5 years in a row during the middle of the football season.
