It's nearly the end of the domestic football season blog readers and quite frankly I can't remember a more joyous and bonkers season than the one that is just about to conclude. I do have some recommendations for the Premier League powers that be however, for the up and coming season that will probably be with us quicker than Mark Schwartzer took to take a goal kick in the Champions League last night.
Now don't get me wrong, I don't think any of these recommendations will be followed. In fact it's just a pipe dream of the Blogathonrunner. Having said that the Blogathonrunner's dream of Liverpool winning the Premier League one day seemed like a pipe dream the beginning season, and by some bizarre twist of fate, look where they are now!
Anyway, here are the Blogathonrunner's Commandments for the 2014/15 season:
1) A club shall not sack more than one manager in a season. Three managers in a season. Well that's just careless!
2) A club shall not sack a manager just four or five games from the end of the season, and be under some grand illusion that this will rectify their season.
3) As part of their punishment for making sarcastic comments about refereeing decisions, Premier Managers should be forced to referee a Sunday League match. They may then realise just exactly the crap that referees have to deal with.
4) At the same time, if it is abundantly obvious that a referee has had an "error of judgement" during a match, he and maybe she one day shall be required to give a full televised apology to the billions of viewers around the world.
5) Managers shall not learn of their demise in the media.
6) Clubs shall inform the managers of their sackings before leaking it to the media.
7) Club chairmen shall sign a declaration that they will not attempt to give their clubs ludicrous commercialised names.
8) Managers shall refrain from headbutting players in the opposing team as it is not clever and let's face it, if a football fan partook in such behaviour they would quite possibly find themselves facing a judge and jury of an entirely different kind.
9) All Premier League players shall look like they have the passion and energy to represent their football club during every match, even if their club looks like they are sailing down a creek without a paddle.
10) All Premier League clubs shall watch educational videos about the concept of time and reality. Even in the corporate world bosses have more than a year usually to restore the fortunes of a flagging business. It doesn't happen overnight!
My final Commandment!
All teams shall entertain us royally with some exciting football.
Not much to ask really.
