A BIG SCAM, Premier league

Hey
Its nice to be back.long time since I have posted two weeks continuously,this post is from Hyderabad a stop for my vacation that was a bit cut short will get to the details next week once I'm back to Bangalore.

This week I shall talk about two leagues the Indian Premier league and the Barclays Premier League

Lets begin with the IPL.Let me begin by saying its a BIG and trust me BIG Scam .I was never a fan of the league and since day one knew it was just another racket and finally some questions are being asked. The finance ministry has at least publicly confirmed that they are going to scrutinise the IPL teams on basis of tax payment,Bookies,Fraud etc....
It wouldn't shock me one bit if some high profile names end up getting caught in this dirty dirty league. All the fuss started when Sashi Tharoor was involved in helping the the underworld buy the IPL team Kochi... hardly 24 hours after the story splashed on all newspapers and was flashing on all screens the guy says he is receiving death threats from the same people whom he help get in.....Am I the only one confused here.....

Besides now this thing has resulted in a political disaster as well, the other new team that from Gujarat the Congress says Modi forced the league to create a team, the BJP, well why on Earth would they agree to anything the congress said, insists that it is total rubbish....
I don't get it why doesn't anyone get it this entire league is an absolute scam and it really has made the gentleman's game look really sick. it really has to be scrutinised very very deeply or else it could help fund Anti social elements......That will be a major Catastrophe.

Now lets talk about a more dignified and less corrupt league the Barclays Premier league.Well not to be over confident or speak too early but it looks like England is going to have a new champion.....CHELSEA FC. Manchester United are 4 points behind the leaders with 4 games to play.Arsenal 6 points behind following a heavy loss at White Heart lane yesterday night to a buoyant Tottenham side...But,What a season it has been for Liverpool FC,well I have a Friend back at my old apartment who was a die hard Liverpool fan (his name is rishab by the way),and when I spoke to him a few weeks ago he said it was the worst season he had ever seen.They got knocked out of the champions league in the group stage,out of the Fa cup in the first round they played, out of Carling cup in the second round they played and they were out of the premier league well before Christmas,the only competition they are still alive is the Europa cup which I'm sure will not be a consolation even if the won it.They are also on the brink on loosing out on champions league football next season sitting sixth(Look at widget on thee right to see the table),this has been without a doubt a season any LFC fan would want to forget.The pretenders Tottenham, Man City,Aston Villa have had a fair season though it looks like Man City are finally going to break the traditional top four this season.Its been a great season for Fulham as well reaching the semi finals of the Europa cup.This season also witnessed history in the premier league with a premier league club suffering Administration and that dishonour went to Portsmouth...Its been a funny season for them relegated from the premier league but still in the finals of the FA cup where they face.....Chelsea

Finally its great to have Newcastle back to the Premier League they were a huge miss...
I hope the remaining of the season goes smooth and John Terry goes and lifts the trophy that has long been due.......COME ON CHELSEA!!!!!!

Well that's it for this weeks post. Will post again next week

Until then

Take Care
