I wish you were United's manager. I believe there is a vacancy.

Seems a few of our players have gone on a well deserved break hope they all come back Covid free

I'd hope those not involved in internationals would take the chance to get away when they have a week off. It'll be a fair while before they get another chance.

After being down in the dumps since Xmas , there seems a real spring in the step of the media today.

They keep saying the tramps have reduced the gap to 9 pts!

I seem to remember when we was 8pts behind them a couple of years ago they phrased it as Liverpool being way out in front.

Ah well to be expected.

 

[give it to gordon]

I guess it's been wall to wall debate about VAR by the press/media today.

 

[jrb]

if City had more articles you’d complain it was because we dropped points. They’d never have won this battle

Ah? OK!

Imagine everything in your World was going perfectly but someone kept saying that you smelt of cheese. You are called Edgar by the way.

You are perplexed and mention that you don’t smell of cheese.

The headline is “Edgar denies smelling of Cheddar” there is a 30 minute special into smelly cheeses on the telly and other people start sniffing you.

There are calls for an investigation by The Cheese Council to sort this out once and for all. Many months pass and nothing of note happens.

You are now doing really well. Someone else says you smell of cheese.

Edgar decides he doesn’t care about cheese.

I know he denied smelling of cheddar, but he didn’t deny smelling of other cheeses.
Fuck, the smelly **** could be stinking like Stilton!

Fancy still going on about empty seats in the covid age.

Sir that is a moment of true clarity .

 

[tregyblue61]

"Empty Etihad", £86,000 per match?

Hang on, 53000 seats, that's £1.63 per seat. Why the fuck is my season card working out at £17 a match?

I've been robbed!

But probably not the PL/PiGMOL who will be lying low in their own bunker.

 

[citymad]

Well, I guess he has had a change of heart but fuck me from 2010 fella, that is holding some fucking grudge.

haha he's been on my most wanted list ever since.

 

[bluealf]

Well, you can knock him off now lol at least he has been man enough to have a change of mind, unlike those feckless cunts that sat about on Saturday afternoons chatting shit.

ps thought it has to be said David Silva, not at Man City seems so wrong.

Presumably they've selected a given number for empties, and then multiplies by a value. 2150 at £40?

The argument is just bizarre though - City prices are lower than some other grounds and therefore it costs less is as manufactured outrage as you could invent.

 

[LongsightM13]

Usually partisan lines, long drawn since by the narrative that United and Liverpool are sacred cows.

Years of conditioning, even if they aren't direct fans of those clubs.

Online negativity is much more constructed for clicks.

They grew up in the 90s and the noughties and like redshirt fans, they assumed this was how it would always be.
Much of it is driven by nostalgia for the certainties of their youth rather than the current uncertainty of their continued employment in a dying industry

So if Chelsea and Spurs ‘cost more’ then why not lead the article with them?
As Big Daddy K said, “Clear and obvious”

 

[BM Blue]

Article's a load of crap as based on capacity before seats were ripped out for the new advertising hoardings...... !
