Seems like match fixing was a major problem across many sports in the 1910s and 1920s. 1919 is when the infamous Black Sox scandal happened in baseball. Back then, professional athletes made decent money, but certainly not enough to pass up a fixing opportunity to make multiple years’ wages in one go. It’s fascinating to learn about these historical events as sports leagues developed into what they are today.
I usually keep the comment section on YT hidden and don't really comment on videos these days, but you said one thing that I absolutely didn't agree with so here I am. At the end you said that the whole scandal was inconsequential as Spurs got promotion the next year anyways. But what if Tottenham got promoted and Arsenal had to play in Division 2 the next year and some other club won promotion next year? It might be inconsequential from Tottenham and Arsenal's perspective but it was definitely consequential for the other clubs in Division 2. P.S.: Really liked the quality of the 2 videos I've watched on your channel so far. ❤
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, much appreciated! That's a very fair point well made. Admittedly I was looking at it through the lens of the Arsenal / Tottenham rivalry, but I can see how that might be reductive. Will keep that in mind in the future!
Hang on a minute. I'm subscribed to an Arsenal fan! Sounds like Justice for Chelsea in conclusion, Thank you very much. Keep up the fantastic work man.
So basically Arsenal have always used their history as a way to justify any of their claims, meanwhile Spurs have always whined about things not going their way when they are responsible for it? and all the while, Chelsea is caught up in a chaotic situation, where their fate is undecided So nothing has really changed then, even in modern football.
I have heard a few stories from old pros about people (usually towards the end of the season when there are possibilities of trophies or relegation) trying to pay off opposing teams to guarantee results. Some of the stories even involve people that aren't "Ron Devie". For some bizarre reason there was one season at the end of the 80s when there were 21 teams in the first division.
I think when the decision was made to reduce Division 1 (as it was then) from 22 to 20 teams, they didn't want to affect too many teams at once, like four down & two up, or two down & nobody up, etc., so they spread the change over two seasons.
I'll tell you how you're just discovering this channel: This is Route None's first video, and is only 2 months old... There have been a few videos since (I think there's 5 now).
Leaving this comment for the algorithm to kick in, as for some reason (idk why) your channel has a low amount of subscribers, despite your well-crafted, well written and documented video. Bravo sir, you are doing an amazing job.
Thanks for that! Just getting started so with any luck that subscriber count will continue rising. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
This video popped up on my feed so I watched this to see what you would cover. I was pleasantly surprised, i like the fact you looked out the old maps, ive had to do this to prove it to people myself. if you had added the next map for 1892 the grounds name is changed from Everton to Liverpool. i Like the fact you kept it brief but concise without bias and well put together , i know there is more to the story you should make a more in depth one. here's a couple of things i tell people about the club. Liverpool's first strip was Blue and white before changing to the familiar red and white. (i don't know if Houlding/McKenna did this to wind Everton up ) Some people assume that one team was Catholic and one team was Protestant, in fact i believe both teams were started under the same religion. St Domingo's are part of the protestant Methodist church and Houlding was a staunch Protestant and also in the orange order. Being a Scouser and a Red I get asked this a lot in Scotland due to the fact Liverpool's first squad was made up of Scotsmen. a lot of Glasgow Celtic fans i know assume Liverpool is a catholic club and are surprised by this. however Glasgow Rangers fans love that fact.

Brilliant. Thanks for the expo. All I ever knew was that Arsenal 'stole' Tottenham's spot. In fairness, Tottenham winning would have been out of character They started as they meant to go on.
My good man. A british gentleman should refer to a Lieutenant as a 'leff-ten-ant' much like how it is not 'ko-lo-nel' but 'ker-nel' for Colonol. As a british commentator you surely must know this difference as it will surely come up very often when discussing football...
We still have footballers today who feel that it is okay to make lewd and vile sexual gestures to an audience that included children, and an English media and fan base who will jump in to defend a playing making disgusting sexual gestures towards an audience that includes a large percentage of children.
Norris was not actually banned for the illegal payments. He was banned cos he took the FA to court for libel and lost (the illegal payments investigation was supposed to remain private, but it was leaked to the press, Norris then sued the FA, implying the FA was suggesting Norris had acted dishonestly - as illegal payments in an era when a maximum wage was in place was commonplace - and numerous teams had been caught out). The FA back then would overreact when their authority was "challenged", as Norris, Enoch West (the 5 other surviving match fixing players accepted their guilt and were reinstated in 1919), and Leeds City all found out the hard way.
It certainly puts the “Never relegated!” boast from Gooners in a new light. Maybe not relegated from the top flight but it appears they didn’t earn their place anyway! There’s only one way to deal with this and that’s making them earn their place in the top flight legitimately. Until then it’s back to the Championship for them! 😁😜
If you had to choose... Every club owned by a nation state, bought with real money, spending real money to make their team the best. Or, Every club owned by an American Billionaire, bought with a loan secured on the club's future, every decision taken to benefit the economic situation of the owners and shareholders. Which would you choose?
So Man U and Liverpool fans always talking about history and how sides like City and Chelsea are ruining the game but they are the original culprits smh 🤦♂️
Who wants an odd number of teams in their league? Canadian gridiron football, that's who. CFL been stuck on 9 clubs for ages. Reminded of a few years where the NFL had 31. Amongst other things it stinks when somebody always has to be off even on big days like the final week of the season

In Rule 8 I think you left a 'p' out of 'stoppages'.
I'm a gooner and had no idea....fascinating!!
This really puts a dampener on Arsenals record of most consecutive seasons in the first division, which dates back to 1919
You should look into the history of Third Lanark. The club went bust through a revenge mission by its last owner. Its a good yarn.
That is a fantastic suggestion. Will add it to the idea list!
