Money in Football

Money in Football 

Football is a game enjoyed around the world. On its comercial front, it is changing everyday and the rate of change is just increasing by every passing day as organisations find new ways of earning more money and big businessmen buying clubs, lavishly funding them causing football to change. 

On the first point of 'organisations finding new ways of earning ' has a very mixed reaction in the football community. Let's take an example of the not so old Uefa Confrence league. After Uefa announced this, many fans were angry and criticized the idea, but in the other hand Confrence league has provided a platform for smaller teams to find a chance to experience European glory. West ham ( an English club ) and Roma ( an Italian club ) winning the league proves the point. 
The same thing is also about to happen as the next world cup will have forty eight teams instead of thirty two, which also has caused the community to react in a same way. But for us Indians and many other small rising nations it's a great news as it gives us a greater chance of qualifying for the World cup. 

On the second point of 'big businessmen ruining football' has a few good points but the negative ones out weigh them. The most prominent example would be middle easy companies buying clubs like Manchester City and Newcastle United. These two deals especially the Manchester City deal has changed football forever, before the deal, Man city was a decent team but nowhere near where it is right now. They won the treble this year ( Champions league, Premier league, F A Cup ) and are arguably the best football team for the past few years. This has caused fans to get furious and angry. Even though money does play a part for the success of Man City we do have to give credit to Pep Guardiola ( A Spanish manager) who was the master mind behind it all. This second point is a little bit more trickier as no one can really say if it's good or bad. Many argue by saying that this will bring more balance to leagues which are dominated by a few teams but in truth no one is totally right or wrong.  

But more than all these topics the most threatening prospect seems to be people forgetting the essence of football and most players choosing passion over money. I pray that football doesn't in the future one day become just a game played for money. 

At last in conclusion, no one can say where football is heading to, if money is helping football reach to more people or ruining it.

MOURNING MY DEATH

Image
1. The Death  The slow night is over, The new sun its brighter,  And you woke up late, Its the usual.  What if you get a phone call?  And they tell you about me,  You hear my name, reminisce about what we've been,  Would you cry a bit or break down to tears?  do you fear death or living like its over ? I wonder who would come to see me, A flawed man, fueled by hunger, Materialism and tangibility, Like on a lost pathway,  I know you missed me, The way i was, the way you perceived me,  Im scared my love, i wanna have a legacy, People forget, but will you cry, remember me ?  What if i was not whatever you say?  What if im dead now, and everyone forgets ?  Cause whats there to, truly remember then, I was a flawed man, i hurt a bunch of them,  I lost my battles and hid the scars when People asked me how ive been, What if i die now and you marry someone else ?  What if i die now, would you have stories to tell...

WHERE AM I, WHERE WILL I BE

1. WHERE AM I ?  I see myself in a different light, away from the green leaves, away from the awake birds. I see myself soaking in rain, like the muddy water,  Its depth made up.  Like the leaves of fall, Brittle, weak.  Breaking away the illution, Don't you see the cracks my reflection make.  Breaking away this story,  Don't you see the who's beyond the ocean.  It isn't blue, it isn't blue, It has drained, drained of everything that made it.  It hasn't woken up, It didn't sleep, It just wept, slipt through the gaps, Into what was, the castle undone, The house burnt,  A lie belived in.  Where am i?  Within. Where am i?  Within,  Alone,  With,  Oneself. 2. STORY OF THE CONCIOUS  Grow apart from me, Like the streams,  Be yourself.  Grow apart, now that im awake, Now that i see there's nothing, Be yourself.  Can i be myself?  Can i write and be judged, Write and be laughed at?  Can i wr...

youth, thy bliss

SIDE A  1. for, Existing in different realms of reality, The translucent, the windows from my words to my morality, Volatility in every bone of my body, Some things will change, But you are my propriety, My terms with reality, Path to sobriety,  from trumpets heavens seem to play, What hemlock was to pioneers of the world we see. To hold on to you, to be part of that world we dream, To be with you, In death and in the life we live, In pavements and in the future we see, You're my northern star, Walking down La ville lumière, Like camus and Francine, tu es à moi, Tu es a moi 2. Oh poor  All we were as children, All our white plain ts, They are all pale now, Teary eyed goodbyes now, The acid and jane you stayed away from. The wild youth has come, The scary nervous wreck needs an outlet.  Oh you're so wild and hungry, Your love never found an outlet, And now you're letting it fill the one you've made your, The one standing up, when you're getting bullied li...
