Null & Voiding: Football Needs To Maintain It’s Amoral Course|opinion

If the season is declared void, which is a strong possibility, it would be grossly unfair on Liverpool, Leeds United, Sheffield United, Leicester City and so many other clubs but so what.

Of course, this is selfish and morally questionable but I simply do not care, the priority for me is that Tottenham benefit.

It is very true, for the most part, that fans of clubs that have a terrible season want the season voided and that those with most to lose do not. That is called the real world and those that will suffer from a void season need to wake up and smell the coffee.

Football is tribal, it is personal and emotional, that is why it is held up to a different standard to most other business, that is why the highly paid players are expected to act differently to other highly paid individuals from other business sectors.

It was unfair that Tottenham was denied a Champions League place following Chelsea’s win over Bayern Munich to win the competition. Did anyone care? No, in fact, the fans from all our rivals loved it and took every opportunity to rub our noses in it.

This is a dog eat dog world when it comes to supporting your team and as far as I am concerned if we can somehow get into next seasons Champions League then I will take it without any guilt or remorse.

History is littered with this sort of happening, do you think Denmark gave a damn when they lifted the European Championship back in 1992 when they did not even qualify for the tournament? They only qualified because Yugoslavia disintegrated due to a civil war that cost the lives of hundreds of thousands and they were disqualified from participating. Where were the howls of outrage then?

If we benefit then good because I seriously do not care about Liverpool winning the title or the fairness of it, I don’t care if Leicester City or Sheffield United miss out, I really do not and if I was to say otherwise then I would be lying.
