Right now on BBC I'm watching Formula 1 coming from Abu Dhabi, and the BBC are lapping out up. The whole world is watching it and loving it.... Except utd /lfc reporter fanboys who hate city. They'll happily watch F1 from the middle east but complain about city.

Gordon is the track blue in colour. I dont watch F1 but I seem to think it was.

For once an article from Sky Stone the is positive about us, well NY City.

MLS Cup: New York City FC in first final since creation

It is eight years since New York City FC were given the 20th Major League Soccer franchise. - now they look to win the MLS Cup for a first time.

It is a positive article. Not one mention of "sportswashing, Abu Dhabi, or the ethnicity of our owner. Perhaps these things don't matter as much in New York or perhaps Stone is just angling for a free trip to the Big Apple.
On a more positive note it is great to see Nick Cushing doing so well in the States. Certainly he has been missed by our women's team.
Whatever people think about the globalisation of football it would be great achievement to have CFG teams simultaneously Champions of England and the USA. A fantastic commercial opportunity.

interesting on Nick Cushing, I've watched NYC past 2 games and not seen him on the sidelines or the aftermatch celebrations.

also for CFG, Melbourne City are the current A League champions.

I’ve seen him once in game going over to the manager and having word but mainly you don’t see him.

Its got lots of Etihad logos everywhere, Yas Marina circuit is another not too shabby asset our owner has in his portfolio.

NYC.

A good read.

Thought exactly the same. Poor little lambs helping out with the sports washing. Aww.
I'm not really keen on Hamilton but want him to win as he is English and for the extra coverage of Abu Dhabi to wind them up.

Hamilton can be very annoying but the alternative is that cheating Begium/Dutch driver.

Of course. I did say I want him to win. He's our man.
I always support Brits in any Sport. Most of us do except for our own media as we see every match in the Champions League.

It's easier for him when he can avoid having to mention us too much. Just a couple of references and one of them preceded by 'super rich'.
It's going to be a long time before he refers to 'highest wage bill United' or 'most transfer records United' .

How on God's green Earth does he come to the conclusion that City are super-rich and NYC aren't, if we are owned by the same people? Does he understand nothing?

Thick as the proverbial. The only reason that we have had to spend so much is to keep up with(and shoot past) the big spenders whose name escapes me. Simon Sly knows as well but some brain defect means he is unable to name them.

Wolve's fans booing Grealish the fucking weird, small-time cunts.

 

[Blue_eyes]

Lol, operation "hard luck wolves" in full flow on the bbc hys etc, I have long suspected the red twats who work there fuel the hate with fake accounts on the comments.

Certainly someone is awarding wolves players high scores in the post match ranking to make it look bad on us.

Can someone here please go on there and state with smug joy that we cannot be overtaken this weekend, even by the best team ever laa, would probs get deleted though.

 

[JASR]

Damn, I went out for a walk with dogs after our game finished and come back to find that we only got 1 point for beating Wolves today according to the BBC. Gonna be hard to win the title at this rate.

Team	P	GD	Pts
1		Man City	16	23	36
2		Liverpool	15	32	34
3		Chelsea	15	26	33
4		West Ham	15	9	27

That link has been showing City on 38 pts since we scored. Maybe the dog ate your glasses? ;-)

BT post match bending in every direction trying to prove Moutinho didn't handle the ball, Walton claimed it did, being talked over and looks like he'll be on the naughty step. Not a whisper about the possible penalties not awarded.

That's an easy question to answer!

And aren’t Mumbai City also current Champions?

Doesn't bother to mention the ones we should've had.

I mean, if that git walton thinks it should have been a penalty with his track record, its got to be nailed on. There again, I don't think he has ever disputed what the on pitch ref has ever given. Git
