The Spiteful Nine

It was designed as an optimal financial strategy. Spend enough to make the top four but insufficient to threaten to win anything.

Miss the top-four one year and the whole plan implodes.

Fuckin Arsenal and their 'history', financial problems, dodgy promotion to Division 1, the 'Kings' of 'North London' although they originated from the south-east, won NOTHING until 1930 and did it with lots of money hence them being known as the 'Bank of England' club. Move to the 90's and not much changes, George's brown envelopes and a huge and unprecedented deal for the stadium naming rights although Arsene doesn't agree with such things now and seems to forget how much his beloved club have spent on players both when we didn't have a pot to piss in and recently with the likes of Ozil, Mustafi, Lacazette, Abemyang, Pepe etc. Bunch of bitter cnuts who deserve nothing but perpetual mediocrity

Didn't they also raid Huddersfield Towns championship winning squad, and possible manager too ?

Yep. Not to mention the corruption that got them into the first division in the first place, at Tottenham’s expense.
Their prime movers in those days came from Glossop North End

Certainly the manager (Herbert Chapman) and I did hear/read that they also raided them for players but didn't add it to the post in case that bit was incorrect. I did originally write :- 'bought the Huddersfield manager and their players down to London' but then deleted it as I wasn't 100% certain about the latter

Does he calls himself Big D or something? I remember someone showing me that video at the time, he was bouncing around With his bleached hair and his shorts and giving it the mockney “Caaaaam on then” but he completely shat it and ran off when the young City lad gave him a slap

It's not something I watch normally, but I've seen a couple of shows, no idea what he's called but he's a gobby annoying ****.
 
I've no problem with Leeds, always a good atmosphere when I've seen us against them home or away. Think there's a Leeds myth stemming from the early 70s. Other than that period they've not done much. Fanwise? Well they finished above Villa last year and had smaller crowds I think. Never had more than us.

Arsenal on the other hand. Bunch of tarquins. Always seemed like the go to London club for poseur football fans.

The league has been better for our rise, anyone who argues otherwise is being a protectionist / populist wanker.

People have been saying for the last decade 'City will ruin football and win everything'. As much as I would love that to happen, it's just clearly NOT the fucking case. And they will continue to say it about 'Oh now CIty will dominate for a decade'....

This is exactly why other top leagues are rattled, it's the most interesting league on the planet.
The majority of the PL clubs clubs should be defending us against men like Tebas, soon they'll regret it.
 
The UEFA investigation was already too much stress for my fragile mental health, please don't tell another one by the PL from those w*nkers is on the cards.
That would surely damage the PL brand won't it if it comes out.
