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.
