Winner Stays On: What if Mourinho is right?

Winner Stays On / Jamie "The Pacman" Pacheco / 29 April 2011 / 1 Comments

Jose Mourinho can't believe what's going on at the moment

"Real players are sent off when they shouldn't have been, Barca's get away with murder, penalties aren't awarded to his team but they're awarded against his sides. It's all engineered to stop him on his tracks and prevent him from winning yet another Champions League title."

Conspiracy theories are the name of Mourinho's game. But what does Winner Stays On make of it all?

So Jose Mourinho has complained that it's all a conspiracy.

Everyone wants Barcelona to win and for whichever club he's in charge of to lose. Barca are in on it and UEFA are pulling the strings to ensure that every decision goes against them. Real players are sent off when they shouldn't have been, Barca's get away with murder, penalties aren't awarded to his team but they're awarded against his sides. It's all engineered to stop him on his tracks and prevent him from winning yet another Champions League title.

We're fair people here at Winner Stays On and for what it's worth that sending off of Pepe did look a little harsh in the context of the match given the referee had been pretty lenient up to that point with the way he'd gone about officiating the match. But if it is all a conspiracy as he suggests and they really are all out to get him we were just wondering: given how he's conducted himself over the past eight years or so - could you blame anyone if it was all true?

Searching for glory in a fair and equitable way this week are this week's two contestants.

   Yes you're fair alright. If Barca have got the referees and UEFA on their side to help them win by being corrupt, who cares eh?? They should just be left alone. Maybe we should do the same with Gadaffi.
