The League Table Always Lies




This was the weekend when VAR was supposed to be used professionally and with integrity by the pgMOBsters who officiate our Premier League games.

Mike "Kipper" Riley, the CEO of the pgMOB, told us improvements were about to happen.
Neil "Kickback" Swarbrick, the Head of VAR, praised himself and predicted a 9/10 just around the corner.

And instead we got...
Fake VAR in favour of Liverpool, denying Palace a point.
Fake VAR removing Raheem Sterling's goal for Manchester City.
A whole collection of fake nonsense against Arsenal by Attwell of the pgMOB.
Mike Dean with his own take on reality in Brighton vs Leicester.
Bizarre interpretations of the rules by Hooper & Mason at Bournemouth vs Wolves.

In Italy's Serie A after the introduction of VAR, just one in every 20 matches had the result altered due to refereeing errors.

In the Premier League this season, nearly 30% of games have had referee/VAR-error induced fake outcomes.

When any of our network undertake consultancy work at clubs we always introduce the concept of the Real League Table - adjusted for the inputs of fake officials.

It used to offer competitive advantage but most clubs do it now - Bournemouth, for example, use it to determine the 'real' quality of the opposition as opposed to the version offered by the 'actual' league table.
It helps with tactics and strategy.

Let's see the Real League Table after 128 games (a third of the season):

1. Manchester City 13-31
2. Liverpool 13-31
3. Chelsea 13-26
4. Arsenal 13-26
5. Leicester 13-24
6. Burnley 13-21
7. Wolverhampton 13-21
8. Sheffield United 12-18
9. West Ham United 13-18
10. Tottenham 13-17
11. Bournemouth 13-17
12. Brighton 13-15
13. Everton 13-15
14. Newcastle 12-15
15. Aston Villa 12-11
16. Norwich 13-11
17. Manchester United 12-10
18. Southampton 13-10
19. Watford 13-9
20. Crystal Palace 13-7

In the top four European leagues, no leading team had been targeted as heavily as Manchester City...
... and none has been so favoured as Crystal Palace.

The League Table Always Lies.

There should be serious questions in the media about Solskjaer and Hodgson rather than the focus on pseudo-journalism elsewhere.

Riley & Swarbrick should be sacked and the police called in.

But the Premier League systemic corruption template is on borrowed time now that Arsene Wenger's new role at FIFA gives him oversight of IFAB and the rules of the game.

Kipper Riley is to meet Wenger soon and schadenfreude will be on the menu both for the stolen EPL title in 2015/16 and for all of the matchfixing against Arsenal while Wenger lit up the English game.

How Many People Own A Slice Of The Southgate Pizza?

This week a reserve team player who has played barely 90 minutes for his club this season and who hadn't played for his country for thirteen months achieved wall-to-wall mainstream media coverage over an incident as inconsequential as you might wish to create, so minor that even his own club and international team-mates say that this is commonplace in football and should be kept within the squad circle and not aired publicly.

But aired publicly it was, ad fucking nauseum.

Joe Gomez, the player in question is represented by John Colquhoun's Key Sports Management.
Mr Colquhoun has issues with Raheem Sterling from the Aidy Ward era - Sterling faced down Colly Boy's weird business strategies and hasn't been forgiven.

So a no-brainer for Colquhoun...

But.

Why did Gareth Southgate make this minor spat public?
Who else influenced that choice?
When did Southgate make the decision that Gomez would play a part in the game - prior to the inflated spectacle or because of it?
Did any money change hands between any agent and any other representative relating to this peripheral news?

And, no doubt, in a world of pseudo-fake, Joe Gomez will be worth more in the transfer market because of this charade.

Peripheral stories to sell papers and secure profits...

Southgate's squad selection is biased tilted owned impacted by a small grouping of agents with 6 of the current England squad being represented by Stellar, for example (including all three goalkeepers - Stellar also represent 1st choice Scottish keeper and 1st and 2nd choice Welsh which might be a problem if either of the owners were professional gamblers, which, of course, they are).

Not so long ago, Colquhoun also represented all three England squad goalkeepers (under McClaren), and that ended badly with Wally-with-the-Brolly-gate and Scott Carson's mistake.

And this ownership of England squad players by a small fragmented cartel of agents is consolidated by hidden representation.

There is an invisible market in football which is never addressed in the mainstream media...
... it is the underground market where agents and intermediaries trade players between their agencies like pieces of meat with multiple and third party ownership being the norm in this infrastructure.

New agencies are established and the key players like Colquhoun are now known to be behind tens of different firms in partial or complete ownership (or other suitable linkage).

The opacity regarding ownership of players needs to be addressed.
Mind you the opacity relating to club owners needs sorting too.
And referee selection.
And doping.
And insider trading.
And matchfixing.

And the British sports media is nothing if not opaque.

Anyway.
That's an aside.

The key question here remains...

... How Many People Own A Slice Of The Southgate Pizza?

VARcical

                                   Fans in the olden days: "The league table never lies."
                                   Fans in 2019: "The league table never tells the truth."

Introduction

At the biannual Premier League meeting this week, the multi-millionaires and billionaires whose wealth derives from sucking all the value and integrity out of top tier football will vote themselves good marks for their role with corrupting VAR in the systemic matchfixing that has become the foundation of the self-styled "world's greatest league".

This self-assessment is fake beyond belief.

When Serie A introduced VAR, refereeing errors that changed the match outcomes happened only once in 20 matches as opposed to every third game prior to video technology.

The Premier League/PGMOB version of VAR has deteriorated an already corrupted infrastructure still further...
... 2019/20 is the most corrupt EPL season yet thanks to the deliberate abuse of VAR.


And this is also the first Premier League meeting since Integrity Man was installed as chief executive...
... Integrity Man is neither fit nor proper - see here  20 Questions For Integrity Man


Those behind these nonsenses have enough critical mass control at both IFAB and the Premier League to prevent changes to the way VAR is being deviated for their private enhancement.

And it does work for them.

It works for them with insider trading the corruption in the betting markets.
And it ruins the integrity of the competition to their proprietary benefit.

This season, without rogue decision-making by the PGMOB officials, Manchester United would be in 17th place on 10 points with Crystal Palace bottom on 6...
... instead they sit 7th and 12th respectively (which is great for Hodgson's legacy and the puppet-masters behind Solskjaer and for those who insider trade on their games).

Meanwhile the whole league's reputation lies in tatters as Manchester City should be just 2 points behind Liverpool - see  EXCLUSIVE: Lizards, Lacertae & Liverpool

Archive & History

We wish to make some comments and ask some questions.
But we don't wish to cover old ground.
So at the conclusion of this article are 20 historical Football is Fixed articles relating to VAR and the PGMOB.

And here is a link to our overview of VAR and corruption at the PGMOB:

The VAR Room - The Twilight Zone Where All Future Premier League And FA Cup Matchfixing Will Be Orchestrated
__________________________________________________________________

Some Comments

1. The mainstream media repeatedly report that VAR isn't working or is failing in some manner.
It does work.
It works well.
The failure lies with the PGMOB match officials who are implementing these fake decisions.
This is ruination by human, not machine - but a bad workman always blames his tools.
And, with perspective, the PGMOB is full of tools.

2. Sack the PGMOB's chief executive Mike Riley and Neil Swarbrick (the Head of VAR).
The criminalisation of the Premier League has accelerated under Riley's lack of stewardship while Swarbrick has compromising links that should not be allowed in such a position.

3. When an entity becomes suddenly chaotic, fraud forensics demands that we determine who (within the game) is benefiting from these orchestrated catastrophics.
And.
We find.
Everybody is losing aside from some corrupt match officials, some insider traders, certain other market making professionals and the captured media and institutions whose head-burying enables this systemic matchfixing.

Outside of the sport the only winners are mafia.

4. For Thursday's meeting, the Premier League/PGMOB are going for the Ukrainian-Trumpian "everything is fine, nothing to see here" strategy of defence and have even allowed a confession of a mistake in VAR with Brighton's winning goal versus Everton.
That 'error' wasn't to do with the needs of those behind select betting patterns then?

Yet we report elsewhere on the 20 key match decisions that Mike Riley admitted to Pep Guardiola that the PGMOB had got wrong to Manchester City's detriment.

These 'mistakes' (sic) with VAR are systemic not specific.

5. The PGMOB insists on referees signing NDAs in return for hush money on retirement - only Mark Halsey has refused the offer.

Yet BT Sport, due to their dovetailed linking to the PGMOB, allows compromised former referees to defend the present day corruptions.

It's an Orwellian loop of corruption is BT Sport...
... and the PGMOB would not allow referee exposure if it didn't suit their purposes.
__________________________________________________________________

Some Questions

1. Why are the fake match decisions (made both as referee and VAR) by a certain inner very Select Group of PGMOB officials correlated with the requirements of certain betting market professionals?

2. Does this happen by magic?

3. Of the 55 live televised matches (the matches with the largest global betting volumes), 47 have been VAR-officiated by a small inner group of just 9 match officials. Why?

4. The PGMOB only agreed to bring in the pitchside tv monitors when Football is Fixed pointed out their requirement under IFAB rules. Why are these monitors now ignored? Why the lip service to rules to suit the internal Stockley Park template?

5. At one window this season, Mike Dean was either referee or in the Stockley Park VAR hub for a run of 12 out of 19 Premier League games.

How did that happen?

Mike Dean has form.
Lots of it.

On two other occasions, Michael Oliver was referee for both the 12:30 GMT BT Sport fraud and the 17;30 Sky one, and, on each occasion the 15:00 EPL kick offs were rife with refereeing roguery.
Why are these structures allowed?

Nobody else runs their league like this, so why the EPL?

6. And, finally, why did an entity linked to mobsters change their name from PGMOB to PGMOL just at the very moment those mobsters took control?

Archive

We have been considerably ahead of the curve on video technology and corruption at the PGMOB.

For over a decade we have been campaigning for the introduction of technology to undermine this corruption...
... instead the Premier League and PGMOB have conspired to create a version of VAR that appears to have been developed for maximum financial gains by the matchfixing mafia who are destroying the game.

Here are a couple of tweets that remain relevant and links to an archive of 20 articles covering VAR and the PGMOB.


Appendix

On January 27th 2018 after the matchfixing of a game between Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion, we tweeted:

VAR will not reduce matchfixing without: 1) managerial reviews of decisions (as in tennis & cricket) & 2) referee & VAR on open microphone so we can hear how the decision is reached (as in rugby & cricket). Otherwise it is a scam - an attempt to validate the corruption.

And at the beginning of this season, we posted on Twitter:

The #PremierLeague version of VAR is primed for corruption. The whole process is murky. #EPL #VAR is already enhancing matchfixing & increasing the number of fake outcomes. We expect this to continue... ... particularly with former rogue ref Neil Swarbrick as Head of VAR.

The Unbearable Rottenness Of Corruption

On 11/11, the Football is Fixed Network will be 13 years old

Four Three Meetings and a Funeral

As part of the celebrations we're sharing this weekend's internal EPL Newsletter - each member of the Network contributes an overview of developments in their focus league and we share real-time analytics and inside information on football matches in those leagues too (we are not able to share these latter analytics, obviously)

FIF EPL Newsletter 8/11

1. VAR

After the Football Supporters' Association (FSA), and, separately, the southern and northern teams in the EPL met with Mike Riley to discuss correlations between PGMOB decision-making (including VAR) and betting patterns, presumably, there was a dearth of comment in the msm until, voila, the Telegraph tell us that Lee Mason made an 'error' VARing Brighton a fake victory against Everton. The markets were expecting an 'error' in Brighton vs Everton so this arbitrary selection of fake is evidently an attempt to deflect from the systemic corruption underpinning EPL.

As we have pointed out elsewhere, Riley met with Pep Guardiola and was shown 20 incorrect PGMOB decisions against Manchester City. Riley agreed that all were wrong calls. But where's the redress?

More importantly, where is the regulatory monitoring of the betting markets?
And why do bookmakers seek out insider trading if not to facilitate corruption?

The application of VAR by EPL & PGMOB has destroyed integrity of the English game just so some underworld shysters can make a mint.

They are taking the piss.


2. Sack Neil Swarbrick

Corrupt former referee Neil Swarbrick is John Colquhoun's place man as Head of VAR at PGMOB.

Swarbrick bears much responsibility for the farcical rule-bending, fake implementation, systemic corruptions and integrity violations that have been the hallmark of the introduction of VAR into the EPL.

It has not been such a shitfuckery freak show anywhere else.

Sack Swarbrick.
Sack Riley.


3. Liverpool vs Manchester City

Not a title-decider because the title is already decided but interesting for an array of reasons anyway.

When the Times newspaper released their exclusive that Liverpool had illegally accessed Manchester City systems seeking player performance and other proprietary data, there was a complete absence of comment from most msm. Liverpool had to pay City £1 million in settlement (without admitting liability, of course).

This is a major news story. Why no ongoing discussions? The msm is captured.

There is a continuing leak out of Manchester City and, as we exclusively exposed last season (all these exclusive articles are currently archived), there is a considerable edifice behind Liverpool FC including other teams, match officials, medical performance people and agents.

Wonder what Brendan Rodgers makes of all this?


4. Coleen Rooney 9 Rebekah Vardy 0

Military intelligence operators have rated Coleen Rooney's slaughtering of what was left of the character of Ms Vardy as "awesome counterintelligence" - the playing out of a creative strategy over time while managing an extensive fanbase while Ms Muggins walked right into it, was totally "awesome counterintelligence."

We have offered Coleen a job!

Funnier still are Rebekah's claims that she was hacked and we are supposed to believe that she has called in IT specialists to fudge her bitch.

Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers this week announced some fake reason why Jamie Vardy turned down Arsenal...
... except that he didn't - Arsenal were never interested.
Wenger told us.

Just another Key Sports Management/ John Colquhoun Fake News Alert.

And talking of which...


5. Ralf Rangnick, Doping, Bayern Munich, Red Bull, Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp & Marc Kosicke

We disclosed on Twitter before the Champions League games this week that the four teams who had covered the greatest distance in the first stage of the groups were:

1. Slavia Prague (co-owned by Chinese government and Sinobo)
2. Bayer Leverkusen (backed by Bayer Pharmaceutical)
3. RB Leipzig &
4. Red Bull Salzburg (part of the Red Bull fizz).

And in this week's matches...

Slavia drew in Barcelona, Leverkusen beat Atletico Madrid, RB Leipzig won in Zenit St Petersburg and Red Bull Leipzig drew in Napoli.
Slavia covered 14 kilometres more than Barcelona!

How do these teams cover such excessive distances?
Where is WADA?

Ralf Rangnick is Head of Sports & Development at Red Bull.
He is loved by corrupt people at the Guardian newspaper.

This week Bayern Munich turned down an approach from Marc Kosicke (Rangnick's agent) to try and get Rangnick short-listed for the Bayern manager's post. We have been told that Rangnick isn't wanted as the Red Bull style of sport does not fit with FC Bayern.

The Guardian, who are keen to get Rangnick into the EPL, ran a headline claiming the exact opposite - that Rangnick had turned down Bayern.

Fake again.

Marc Kosicke also represents Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp - a man who understands doping in all its guises.

We tell you, folks, Football is Fixed.


6. Lionesses, Mafia & the Mainstream Media

Two years ago, a member of Football is Fixed was approached by Luke Heighton, an investigative journalist from the Telegraph.

In his attempt to seduce us, he provided an exclusive that four members of the England Lionesses were represented by an agent who is banned worldwide from all football activities after having been exposed as a mafia man when in control of AC Monza in Italy.

The Telegraph editor refused to run the story as the Lionesses were a feelgood narrative to be promoted.

As with the Allardyce exposes (also squashed from full impact by the Telegraph) and like the Dr Mark Bonar Leicester City doping exclusive at the Times, these stories have to be terminated. This type of news cannot be known.

Just like the systemic matchfixing.

Still...
... good to know that there are a variety of mafia entities hovering around the Lionesses as they take on Germany at the Food Mall today.


7. Roy Hodgson & Crystal Palace

The fact that apartheid-sanction busting money head thug Roy Hodgson is still in work is indicative of the state of the English game...
... he should have been sacked after we exposed the fixed EPL match between Fulham (where Hodgson managed) and Wigan 10 years ago last week - see  Happy Anniversary to Roy Hodgson

I received threats from John Colquhoun over exposing this Fulham v Wigan fix.

But given that a legacy is being cooked up for the man, why do we have to put up with such excessive PGMOB bias in favour of Crystal Palace?

Palace were the most favoured team in the EPL in 2017/18, the 4th most favoured last season and the most favoured again this season...
... except that this year Palace are receiving the most bias of any team in the top four European leagues.

Penalty for Palace has become a sub-section of the PGMOB.


8. Even Worse Than Palace Is The Current Brighton & Hove Albion Regime

Several members of our Network have been approached by former employees of Brighton & Hove Albion since we revealed systemic matchfixing of games involving club owner Tony Bloom and the perverse role played by his Starlizard betting unit.

Ground staff are taking the club to court. Other former staff are considering their options.

We helped Gus Poyet with his grievances and his successful court case against Bloom's mode of business and we always try to aid integrity in the psycho-world of the EPL.

It's good to talk.

And best of luck with all that reputation management, Mr Bloom...

Mike Dean On The Scene...

Mike Dean refereed the fixed televised match between Sheffield United and Arsenal on October 21st.

Out of the next 10 matches on the following weekend, Dean was VAR official in two televised matches Southampton v Leicester (early VAR red card) and Liverpool v Tottenham (late match-winning VAR penalty) while also refereeing a match between Watford and Bournemouth where the outcome was known pre-match.

Today, Dean is VAR official for both televised matches - Bournemouth v Manchester United and Watford v Chelsea.

So by the end of today, Dean will have been in a key influencing refereeing position in 5 out of the last 8 televised matches.

Furthermore, on two other occasions this season the PGMOB controllers have positioned one man (Michael Oliver in both cases) on both of the Saturday televised games only to find that the VAR decisions in the 15:00 kick offs possessed intriguing correlations - it is felt within our network that Oliver was VAR official for the day on each occasion.

This accumulation of control will mean that Dean will either have been in the Stockley Park VAR hub or the referee on the field of play in 12 of the last 19 games Premier League matches.

Mike Dean has previously been banned from officiating over his proximity to bookmakers and tipping services.

No other league allows this.

Mike Dean is rogue.

The Premier League is rogue.
