As John Colquhoun's mobsters and associates lob grenades at referees, VAR and the rules of the game, fans are left wondering why football journalism in this country is so captured.
English football will always come up with new ways to corrupt the sport. You just can't stop them - corruption simply finds a way.
So, in the week where we got a glimpse of what the Swiss System will bring to Champions League 'Group' matches next season (see tomorrow's article), Colquhoun creates fallacies in furtherance of his own psychopathic ambitions.
Of the above quotes...
... the Guardian football output is entirely under the control of Colquhoun's minions, Carragher is represented by corrupt agents Wasserman, Arteta is represented by corrupt agents Wasserman, Howe is represented by corrupt agents Wasserman, Postecoglou is represented by linked corrupt agent CAA / Base, Rodgers is owned by Colquhoun, Ten Hag is under Colquhoun's thumb and Lynam is used by Colquhoun for proprietary output in the Telegraph.
So, not football hating VAR but organised crime hating VAR.
A very different narrative.
If you could take a time machine back to when football wasn't corrupt, you could explain to the fan the honour that she / he should feel that this beautiful sport would eventually be used as a mechanism for systemic corruption organised by, well, organised crime groups (OCGs).
This last week has witnessed Colquhoun's serial control of media output morphing into a media terrorism. Can you negotiate with terrorists? Does football want those conversations? Or does the English game want a return to the status quo of the entirely controlled systemic corruption that existed before the very delayed and very manipulated introduction of video technology into the English game?
Aside from the captured bunch of reprobates mentioned at the onset of this article, there is another key squadron involved in the deliberate undermining of VAR, corrupted match officials.
Let's look at the match officials involved in the controversial EPL games where VAR allegedly fails...
The same names are in the frame on Che v Ars, TH v Che, WW v NU, TH v Liv, NU v Ars etc and they are the names of the alleged top officials in the English game (those who are allowed access to UEFA events also) - Oliver, Taylor, Attwell, Coote, Gillett...
And the spectacles of failure, by a complete mystery, are always in the Sky Sports / BT Sport - TNT live televised events.
VAR's 'failings' are produced by OCGs in the glare of maximum publicity.
It would almost appear to the untrained eye that this failure of VAR is a deliberate terrorist act carried out on the orders of organised crime.
Now why would organised crime be doing that?
OCGs want the smallest nucleus of corrupt inputs to their systemic crimes - more mouths equals more leaks whereas a tight-knit group of captured entities has greater longevity of performativity.
If VAR is scrapped then more power will exist in the hands of the on-field referee and we will witness a return to the bad old days of referees corrupting games without technology coming to integrity's rescue.
Insider trading and matchfixing will increase.
Integrity will decrease.
The quote regarding what Premier League managers desire comes from the the LMA chief executive Richard Bevan, a serial liar if ever there was one.
Being quoted (inevitably) in the Guardian, Bevan pushes for two things.
Firstly that the referee squads should be a permanent structure i.e. the same referees, assistants, 4th Official and VAR Official to work together on all games.
The benefit, supposedly, is that this will increase professionalism while, actually, it will increase systemic corruption.
Secondly, Bevan wants a clearer description of what a "clear and obvious" error represents.
This merely will reduce the power of VAR to correct corruptions errors perpetrated by the on-field operative.
The Football Is Fixed Network have got a lot of stuff on Bevan...
... he is not a man to speak of integrity, he is not a man to be CEO of anything at all, he is not a man who has football's best interests at heart.
Colquhoun's defining 'strategy' is a disaster capitalism template.
As with all terrorists (state, corporate or revolutionary), he lobs bombs and grenades onto innocents while laughing psychopathically at the devastation he causes to his own benefit.
Colquhoun has never achieved anything other than this corporate / organised crime terrorism.
It is his raison d'etre.
Lurking in the shadows, murdering the sport that gave him a career, terrorising whistleblowers and other integrity loci in the game.
As we share data dumps on Colquhoun with various institutions, our Remembrance Day message would have to include the words "If Colquhoun does turn out to be one of the fallen, we know exactly what this selfless martyr would expect fans to say. Thank you Mr Mafia Man. Thank you for your service to the sport".
Wear your poppy with pride.
