Spelling, not strictly grammar.

Yes I typed spelling initially, then changed my mind, it's not strictly either is it, it's incorrect choice of word

It is simply not true, that Messi has to stay at Barca, if he doesn't want to.

Why the fuck are you quoting Simon Jordan ffs? What does Merson think ?

It’s patently obvious Josh is either a wum or a moron.

Sometimes I get the feeling this is all a big play to get Bartipoo out but then by all accounts it was Messi who phoned Pep to come here. That's significant. City haven't denied trying to sign him either.

Who's reported this?

Barcelona and La Liga have been quite adamant that this isn't the case and there is still a release clause in his contract. Barcelona have more access to those records than any of us on this forum.

The only way of a resolution it looks like is if we come to agreeing a fee with Barcelona and their President.

FIFA has an arbitration panel for disputes like this. I think Messi would prefer to resolve it through Barcelona but if that is not possible and the relationship breaks down completely, City can submit an offer to Messi and his agent, and Messi can then apply for an international transfer certificate from UEFA. This would bypass La Liga and it would be up to FIFA's arbitration panel to assess the case.

I'm just asking the question. I don't have any more of a clue about it than most of the people on this forum.

Wouldn't want to be in a trench with some of you shitbags!

After this saga, I can guarantee the Spanish version of Where’s Wally will be renamed Where’s Jorge.

Day off for Barca today.

OH FUCK THAT (Technically) MEANS HES NOT STRIKING TODAY!!!!!!

What looks like a child with 8000 twitter followers knows this how?

 

[jimharri]

It will until the next negative twitter comments come out in the next hour or so.

Here you go....

Can you be both?

Probably his child or something, apparently he works for ESPN.

I call bullshit myself tho.

He's just gone to piss though the letterbox.

Give me a break I’d only had one coffee and was just making a sausage barm.

Messi could do it all himself without involving City, if he feels strongly enough about it.

That much is obvious.
