Up here in the land of the vacant sun, you cannot read an article from certain journos of a certain Rangers persuasion, highlighting the gap in resources and how their poor old team can’t compete.
If you ask them, as I did one of these guys last week, “ Show me one article you have written during Rangers 9 in a row, where you mentioned the gap in resources and how we were up against it?”
Cough
Just one.
Well, it was
Shut up. You didn’t give a fuck when your team held the upper hand. Was never a problem. Now you are fucked financially, it’s all to the detriment of the game? Please.
Anyway, that conversation ended but the fact remains. Clubs who had all the dosh, lorded it over those who didn’t, and now things have changed, it’s a different story. Not fair, too much, bad for the game.
Well, they can all fuck off.
No likey when the shoes on the other foot?
Get fucking used to it.
Had to get this off my chest, it really fucks me off.
god, you've been whinging about money all season, even brought bleeding Anderlecht into it.
It’s a very useful double-edged sword for them.I know two rag fans personally that have fallen out of love with football because in their words "Money has ruined the game" but strangely they didn't seem bothered when they were smashing the British transfer record on a yearly basis. Those same fans were giddy when they spunked loads of money on Pogba and Lukaku and thought of those buys as a beginning of a new dawn and the start of their second coming.
The initial euphoria was tempered by our good early start but as that start continued on to be a dominance they reverted back to type complaining that money has given City the edge and it's an unfair playing field. When I quote how much they have spent they always reply that the money they spend is money acquired the correct way, whereas in fact the money they spend is money gained by whoring their brand on every product they can shoehorn their badge onto. My happiness on winning the league again is arrogance so the only way to approach my conversations with them is to mock them because they deserve no less than contempt.
As an aside. When's the next tax case due against Rangers MK2?
When comparing the old guard -- who spent because they "earned it" -- and City ("filthy oil money who bought the league"), I continue to draw the parallel between Amazon and a giant brick-and-mortar retailer, or any disruptive technology company financed by venture capital up against an "old school" traditional business.
Should venture capital be illegal because it upends the hegemony?
Welcome to the new world. Change or die. Shut up and figure out how to compete, or fail.
I like you Fogblue, but please for the love of all that is not evil leave the SV VC douche-speak out of discussions about City. Maybe just me that hates that shit, as I am surrounded daily by people who endlessly prattle about wanting to "disrupt" and "break things." Football is my main escape from that!
All while sucking down the millions of the largest companies in Germany, because they have had a virtual monopoly on big monkey deals in Germany, and simply poach the best players of every other team in their League!Yes he talks about Bayern's philosophy as he makes more racist comments about our owners. Not really a surprise given the philosophy Bavaria is most famous for. I really think Bayern are an utter disgrace.
