At Tottenham Hotspurs, of the 37 players listed as belonging to their first team squad in the 2005-2006 season, only eight were of native British origin.

Of these Dean Marney made just 11 first team appearances, Danny Murphy (Irish ancestry) made just 10, Calum Davenport made 5, Lee Barnard made 3 and Robert Burch did not appear at all.

Stephen Kelly, Robbie Keane and Andy Reid are Irish.

Excepting Paul Robinson, Michael Carrick and Michael Dawson, the ethnicity of all the other players listed at Spurs website originates elsewhere on the planet within the first or second generation.

Of the 9 players listed at the ESPN Soccernet website as "coming in" to the Spurs squad, as of August, 2005:

Tom Huddlestone is black British, Jermaine Jenas is black British, Aaron Lennon is black British, Wayne Routledge is black British, Grezegorz Rasiak is Polish, Lee Young-Pyo is South Korean, Edgar Davits hails from Surinam and his father is Jewish, Paul Stalteri is Canadian and Teemu Tainio is Finnish.

So it doesn't appear that things are set to improve much for the indigenous, white population of this country, as regards employment at this football club.

Of the 23 first team players listed at Manchester United's website at the start of the 2005 season, only Gary Neville, Paul Scholes and Alan Smith are of 100 percent British origin.

John O'Shea, Liam Miller and Roy Keane are Irish and the wondrous Wayne is second-generation Irish. All the rest are 100 percent foreign or have a good deal of non-British/Irish blood close up in their pedigree.

Of the 24 first team players listed at Chelsea's website at the start of the 2005 season, only Frank Lampard, John Terry, Joe Cole and Wayne Bridge are of 100 percent British origin.

Damien Duff is Irish and all the rest are, ethnically, of entirely foreign origin, although Carlton Cole, Glen Johnson and Sean Wright-Phillips were, I think, born here.

Of the 24 first team players listed at Arsenal's website at the start of the 2005 season, there are no players of ethnic British origin at all.
 
Sol Campbell and Ashley Cole were, however, born here.

More than 250 foreigners were playing regularly in the Premiership in the 2004-2005 season.

A good many of the rest were the sons of second and third-generation immigrants.

Thus, a very great many of the most financially rewarding jobs that this country has to offer, which were once the exclusive preserve of working-class British youth, are now mostly taken up by others.

If you reflect upon this and then consider the fact that more than 90,000 high street stores, paper shops and fast-food outlets are now owned and run by first and second-generation immigrants, the like of which, before their arrival in this country, the British working-classes would have aspired to own, you may get some idea of the enormity of the betrayal that Westminster parliamentarians, and the shadowy forces who own and run them, have been engaged in over the last 50 years.

So, who brought about this situation at our leading football clubs?

Who was in a position to see to it that our national game, at the very top level, was turned into a vast cash and kudos cow for the soccer player of non-British origin to milk?

The following owners and CEOs haven't always been in charge but they are absolutely representive of those who have been seeking to establish, within our national game, so many non-indigenous heroes for us to gawp at and revere in recent times.

At the expense of the home-grown.

Daniel Levy became Tottenham's Chairman in 2001, upon the departure of the ubiquitous money-man, Alan Sugar.

Levy and Sugar are pictured below:

                                  

In 1992 the FA gave the green light for the formation of the Premiership.

Rupert Murdoch's Sky was one of the bidders for the TV rights.

ITV's Greg Dyke offered the new league" £262 million for the television rights.

At some point in the proceedings Alan Sugar, who was the owner of Tottenham Hotspurs at the time, left the room and made a phone call. Soon after this Murdoch's crew phoned through a £305 million bid, leaving Dyke, the original proponent of the breakaway league, with egg on his face.

Alan Sugar was, apart from being the big man at Spurs, the CEO of Amstrad in 1992. Amstrad had an exclusive agreement to supply the satellite dishes required for Murdoch's Sky TV.

By 1997, Murdoch was raking in around £1.3 billion in profit from Sky's sports channel. 

Put your hands up if you think the Jewish fellow in the photograph is entitled to laugh.

                                                        


The American tycoon, Malcolm Glazer, became the owner of Manchester United against the wishes of the vast majority of United's fans.

He turned the club, overnight, from the richest in the world to one that is, currently, saddled with an enormous debt.

This is Glazer:

                                               

David Dein is Arsenal's Chief Executive.

In 1993, he was the major shareholder in the club with 42 per cent of the shares. However, Danny Fiszman is now the major player, owning 26 per cent of Arsenal FC. Dein currently owns a little more than 15 percent the south London team.

Keith Edelman is Arsenal's Managing Director.

Dein and Fiszman are pictured below:

                                         

David Dein is a member of UEFA's executive committee and is also vice-chairman of the FA.

He is, probably, the most powerful man in British football.

He was responsible for saddling us with the enormously overpaid Swede, Sven-Goran Eriksson (£4,000,000 per annum) and it was Dein who, at the last minute, tried to engineer the acceptance of the Brazilian, Luiz Felipe Scolari, (£5,000,000 per annum was, reputedly, offered) who hardly speaks a word of English by the way, as England manager.

Do I hear some of you citing Scolari's track record?

Didn't he manage Brazil when they won the World Cup in 2002 and Portugal when they got through to the Euro 2004 final?

Well, he sure did.

However, Brazil has been the best team in the world, on and off, for the last 70 years and any team from that country could, probably, mount a serious challenge on the world stage with Julian Clary, Vicky Pollard or a milk bottle acting as head coach.

Portugal were at home.

Most national teams do well at home, particularly when they are hosting a major competition.

South Korea got through to the World Cup semi finals in 2002 and Japan, who co-hosted the event, reached the second round and only just lost out 1-0 to the second best team in the competition, Turkey.

Who went on to finish third after being knocked out in the semi-final by Brazil.

How well do you think Scolari would have done at Bolton or Portsmouth?

And, if anyone has forgotten, we English managed to win the World Cup in 1966. Without the benefit of any foreigners I may add.

Although Alf Ramsey did have gypsy blood in his veins and George Cohen was, of course, Jewish.
 
However, if you asked Sir Alf, I would lay odds that he would describe himself as English first and Gypsy nowhere at all.

As for Mr. Cohen, I would be pretty sure the Jewish bit would not take precedence over the Englishman.

Which isn't, necessarily, all that usual.

You see, Daniel Levy, Alan Sugar, Malcolm Glazer, David Dein, Danny Fiszman and Keith Edelman are all Jewish as well.

And the clubs they own haven't exactly been at the forefront of the let's put the-English-first-in-England brigade, now have they?


Chelsea's youthful owner, Roman Abramovich, finds it nicer here than the land of his birth, Russia.

Which is understandable.

If he spent too long "back in the USSR" he might end up in the same Siberian prison where his fellow "oligarch", Mikhail Khodorkovsky now resides.

Khodorkovsky, was arrested in October, 2003, just as he was boarding his private jet.

He is, presently, serving a nine-year sentence for tax fraud.

What follows may seem like a digression.

But it's not.

John Major, who succeeded Margaret Thatcher's Jewish Chancellor of the Exchequer, Nigel Lawson, in 1989, took the pound into the ERM.

In 1992, Major, who was Prime Minister by this time, and Norman Lamont, his Chancellor, were categoric in their assertions that the pound would stay in the ERM. They asked Bundesbank chief Helmut Schlesinger to help out by cutting German rates. He refused.

The government put up interest rates to 10 to 12 and then to 15 percent to defend the pound, but as Lamont well knew, it was never going to work. In the end the government threw in the towel and left the ERM. The amount of money spent defending the pound has never been fully revealed but Lamont acknowleged that many billions of pounds, the bulk of the country's foreign exchange reserves, had been wasted.

The pound fell 15 percent against the mark and the Hungarian Jew, Georgi Soros, whose predatory manoevres in the markets had exacerbated the situation markedly, nicked a billion or two off the British without raising a sweat.

Many British businesses failed as a result of the rise in interest rates and thousands of British workers were made redundant.

George Soros’ Open Society Foundation in Moscow was raided in November, 2003, by more than 40 armed investigators.

All the files and computers were removed. At the time that this happened, Soros was thought to be a significant shareholder in the Russian company, Yukos, the world's fourth-largest oil producer.
