What is The Onion Bag?Van Clenchmonker: Eye for an opportunity Tactics Truck: Headquarters Must stay at least 100 yards away from In that heady and turbulent spring of 2003, Willhelm Van Clenchmonker arrived from his native land with no more than an old eastern European steam powered computer and a dream. He set up The Onion Bag - a satirical site about the corruptible and contemptable world of association football. Beautiful dayPublished every Monday from the Tactics Truck - the mobile football nerve centre previously used by ITV Sport's Andy Townsend during ITV's ill-conceived and short-lived early evening highlights programme The Premiership - the Bag's writers tour the length and breadth of the land conjuring up ludicrous observations, misguided missives, and utterly false news headlines with the odd gag thrown in. The result is "The best football site the web has to offer."* But why though?Because if anything deserves to be exposed for the sham that it is it's the game the we all love most.No really, why?Bill Shankly once sort of said that football that more important than life or death. If he meant it, he was an arse. It really is only a game and we're here to remind you how silly it all is.Contact detailsSubscribe or unsubscribe to our weekly update email here General enquiries, problems or queries to moan@the-onion-bag.com Press and advertising enquiries to pr@the-onion-bag.com DisclaimerNone of anything that is written in The Onion Bag is even remotely true. None of the quotes from public figures were ever spoken by anyone, ever, therefore none of it is defamatory. * Litigation Monthly Copyright © 2003 - 2008 The Onion Bag |
