I’m not dragging anybody’s name through any mud.Stop dragging Kaz Deyna’s name through the mud.
You need to calm your tits.I don’t think you quite realise that as of yesterday there is zero discernible difference between City And united. Both arrogant cartel members, both taken pleasure in shitting on clubs they deem beneath them, both owned and run by cunts who have no place in our game.
The only difference is we have accepted our place in the scheme of things. a smaller less significant version of them. A “shit man united”
I have hope that Pep is going to go in two-footed on those that made this decision in the press conference tomorrow. Don’t let me down. Klopp confirmed he is dead against it, I think he will walk if it becomes clear there is absolutely no way back. I’d like to think Pep would too. They will have known nothing about it. Pep was potentially on the brink of a monumental season, and now it’s all been made meaningless by those above him. How could he not be pissed by that? All the work he did in this most testing of seasons was a complete and utter waste of his time. I do hope he stands up for what is right, he usually does. Maybe I’m just being naive but I’d like to think he will side with the fans in this. He must be angry at the way this season has become pointless.
We were booing uefa for trying to make the old elite clubs untouchable no matter how badly run they are. Joining a closed shop league with those clubs is not the antidote, in fact it is a hell of a lot worse than what we were booing.Well said!
Have the booers forgotten what they were booing for??
This is the ultimate two fingered feck off to UEFA and all it’s corruption.
Personally I would welcome seeing the best clubs in the world with the best players doing battle in a league.
I very much doubt the national federations and UEFA will be able to sustain national leagues without the big clubs included as financially this will not be sustainable for them and will hugely diminish the importance of the leagues.
If this is all just a bargaining gambit to wrestle power from UEFA I am also in favour of it. They’re rotten to the core and need showing who earns their wages for them.
Screw UEFA!
But if Klopp had no clue (he admitted this) despite working for Henry, there’s every chance Pep didn’t know either. Klopp literally said he and his players had no clue it was happening.
I refer you to my post aboveYou need to calm your tits.
No, there’s not a snowballs chance in hell we’re kicked out of the Premier League. Think about what happens to the Premier League if they did that.
This may not be popular but I think owners were supportive of this. We should stop pretending the club had their arms twisted or backed into the corner over it.One thing I don't get. Why join in? Maintain the moral high ground and stay out, build a huge legacy of success in domestic competition and same in the Champs League. avoid the wrath of fans and the government and watch as inevitably these European super clubs as franchise's become Jerusalem Hotspur, Manchester ( Texas ) United and Mumbai-Pool Football Company
You are right of course but it's not too late for someone to try and calm things down. I also think if City did step back a bit it might just create some space for discussion. At the moment it is just all-out war. If UEFA hand this year's Champs League to PSG (by booting us, Real, and Chelsea out) it will just fan the flames.UEFA and the cartel. We are part of the cartel
Probably because United, Arsenal and Liverpool are the main drivers of it. So far it’s been indicated in reports we don’t actually want it. And why would we? We were about to win the title and are currently sat in a CL semi-final. Our role doesn’t seem to make sense at this time.He gives less than 2 shits about our club, we barely get a mention.
Good post, mate.Next season will be fun if this continues.
The Premier League, not wanting to kill the so called best league in the world will allow everyone in. We then get the situation of Us, Utd and Chelsea not playing in the CL but the new super duper league. 4th, say it's Leicester is in the CL. Along with the next 3 none super duper league teams. We get to play in the FA Cup, we put out an U23 side in the League Cup.
I've never been fond of the CL in it's current format let along their mad idea to allow historical clubs in via the backdoor so winning the league will still be a big thing in my head.
This means there are two Euro leagues running. One CL, one Super Duper League.
Which falls first? Because if the Super Duper League generates huge money, sponsorship and worldwide coverage then you can bet your bottom Dollar that clubs will see the huge windfalls available and join in.
We got in at the start. Horrible as it may sound. If it fails we come back with our tails between our legs.
Me? I hate it all. I hate Uefa giving it all the "We love football" when it's their money grabbing that has caused this. They knew about this weeks ago which is why they proposed the new format. A halfway house. I hate Sky and their years of the "Big 4" and "Super Sundays" but most of all I hate football being like this.
49 years ago I fell in love with City. I was young, very young but would I have changed the heartache, the piss taking and all the other crap that came with supporting a team always classed as everyone's second favourite team? Would I fuck. I'm proud of the journey. It's partly made me who I am today. I've made many great friends over the years.
And now we play the best football I've ever seen. It's a joy to watch. Beautiful. Beautiful game. As it should be played. Sure I've adapted my watching style over the years. I've come to ignore the play acting, the lack of sliding tackles and the shrieks of the death of a player only for them to magically resurrect themselves moments later because of the joy with winning. Winning beautifully as well.
And now this. My business head agrees with the theory. My football head hates it. With a passion. It goes against everything I've ever thought football should be.
But what do I know. I'm old.
Well said, and don't forget the players.Pep was potentially on the brink of a monumental season, and now it’s all been made meaningless by those above him. How could he not be pissed by that? All the work he did in this most testing of seasons was a complete and utter waste of his time. I do hope he stands up for what is right, he usually does.
