Ever Spinning!

Not a week passes that local football doesn't get hit with some adverse headline or in the case of this week, three adverse headlines. Firstly those paragons of virtue the team and manager that can do 'no wrong', Linfield and the 'fat' controller, fielded an ineligible player during a league game on Tuesday night. The player in question should've been serving a one game suspension, but instead he played for Linfield at Mourneview Park, against Glenavon, a game which the reigning league champions lost 1-0. We now await the punishment from the I.F.A., seemingly Linfield cannot be deducted points as they lost the game anyway, so it seems a fine is likely. If the punishment handed out to the 'Bigoted Jeffrey' last season for making false claims of sectarian abuse from United fans is anything to go by, Linfield can expect a £50 fine from the powder puff I.F.A.. Then last night during that excuse for a programme, Season Ticket, that renowned reporter, Stephen (Turnip-head)Watson was interviewing I.F.A. president Raymond Kennedy and sacked chief executive Howard Wells. On the one side was the big country yokel, Kennedy, who despite answering about 10 questions said nothing and the smooth talking (marlies in the mouth), Wells, equally saying nothing, but both hinted that pretty soon the s--t would hit the fan and then there would be hell to pay. Then there was a third bombshell dropped tonight from our esteemed government better known as the Stormont 'fleecers and murderers club' (if anyone can't understand this just send a S.A.E. to Sir Reg Empey and he will explain), that suggests none of our clubs would pass new stringent safety laws and are in that context operating illegally. What next I hear you ask? The answer is I don't know, but sure as 'pussy is a cat' (some say pussy is something completely different but I won't go there), there will be more controversy, in fact it's the one thing we can depend on, we definitely can't depend on the weather and we can't depend on the I.F.A. to do anything sensible, sure the shock would probably kill us if they did!
