[Wretched Vengeance]

Whereabouts is that?

On Palatine Rd.

I wish sky sports news would make it's mind up.
Yesterday Erling was on 900k a week, today he's on 856k.

I got a feeling tomorrow he might be on 800k a week.

I also got a feeling sky sports know absolutely nothing.

I heard this last night. JB was doing mental gymnastics trying to justify why Haaland wouldn't end up in the Top 10. No mention of where Tranny or Messi were at 22. Apparently, he's a great goalscorer but not a great striker yet FFS

What the fuck does that actually mean.

I do know what we are witnessing and it fucking blows my mind. Fuck the media.99 percent what they write is made up bollocks

Why do they do this? Everybody knows it’s just made up nonsense. Doesn’t stop rags etc pretending it’s true. What a shower the football media is.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

You from Sale by any chance? They seem to have a real hard on for Chorlton. Especially Ashton “Village” (puke). No-one else seems to give a shit.

Haha. Only because the people from Chorlton usually end up moving to Sale and Alty after their kids arrive.

Schools, you see ;)

Right on for Chorlton until the moment they want their precious kids to attend the grammar schools...

 

[KS55]

What the fuck does that actually mean.

It means he doesn’t score with spectacular shots from 25 yards. Same thinking that means goal of the month is always one of those. When was a great team goal, with slick passing to engineer an opening last chosen? Yet that is the essence of the beautiful game, epitomised by City under Pep.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Some absolutely brilliant restaurants out there.

Hawksmoor
Dishoom
Fazenda
El Gato Negro
Tast
Sweet Manderin
Tatuu
Rudy’s Pizza
Dimitris

Take note people. I eat out a lot and these places are as good as I’ve been to anywhere :)

Try Jardim in Alty if you like Fazenda?

Far superior and cheaper.

You might even get to sit near Fred and Ederson, in there all the time!

 

[citymad]

Surely City can sue Keegan for this. How the hell would he find out out such private information ? The club needs to shut this talk down and ban any journalist from the DM from ever setting foot at the etihad. I'm worried that if the club stays silent it'll sound like there's an element of truth and we'll have every fucking commentator spouting his wages after every goal.

 

[Centurions]

Surely City can sue Keegan for this. How the hell would he find out out such private information ?

If they did then wouldn't we be obliged to disclose (to the court at least) details of the contract to prove the lie? Not likely to happen I'd have thought.

 

[Gingers Dad]

Shouldn't it be a bigger story that utd spent roughly the same on wages that Keegan is claiming Haaland was paid, by having Ronaldo and Casiemiro sitting on the bench for the derby?

Not really, they were obviously being held back for the Omonia Nicosia game.

 

[bluenova]

Who the fuck is JB, we can see he is a fucking absolute no nothing bitter ****.

How can you be so blinded by bitterness not to appreciate what he is doing, it would be like pretending Messi only played in a shit league with 4 good teams and he wasn't special because of that, never won a world cup either, shite player lol

Damn these fools.

Talksport Person 1: I think X is great.

Talksport Person 2: I think X is great too.

Talksport Person 1: Ok, well we're all agreed here. Why not call in and tell us why you agree with us that X is great.

Phone lines: Tumbleweed.

Talksport Person 1: Er....that's all for today.

 

[aguero93:20]

So, he cost £85m, is on £900k a week and already off to Madrid in two years.

The truth will always come out when you have a free, unrestrained press.....

Ooh Erling Haaland, I think we should pay you some more!

 

[aguero93:20]

I didn’t know that dogs had feathers.. every day’s a school day

It's Australia has the flying dogs mate.

The problem the MSM media have, is that Haaland is the new world footballing superstar and he plays for City. Messi & Ronaldo are yesterdays footballing news. Neymar & Mbapee play in a no mark league so their exposure is limited to some degree. Haaland and City play in the biggest, richest, most popular league on the planet. Therefore the exposure and publicity that comes with it is insane. They simply cannot handle or refuse to believe that the biggest name in football on this gods earth plays in a blue shirt at the Etihad. It is genuinely frying their brains and boiling their piss on a scale not seen before. The MSM were absolutely achingly desperate for him to fail. After the Charity Shield match they were cock-a-hoop. Haaland was a dud and Liverpool's Nunez was a sure fire hit. A couple of months later thier biggest nightmare scenario is being played out in front of their very eyes and still some refuse to accept it. Haaland will increase our global profile on a scale that we can't even imagine. Kids in every country and around the world will be wearing shirts with Haaland on the back and the City badge on the front. This is what scares them to death and keeps them awake at nights. For 12 years there has been a clear, obvious, blatant and explicit media campaign conducted against Manchester City Football Club. They thought that the FFP charges were the answer to their prayers. Remember the reaction across the footballing spectrum at every level when that wheeze failed? Haaland brings with him and delivers us everything they have tried to stop us having since the takeover: Worldwide exposure and popularity. Increased sponsorship. Increased ticket sales. Constant TV, radio & newsprint time and column inches for all of the right reasons. We now need to win the Champions League and hammer the final nail in their coffins. It is the only stick left they have to beat us with and they know Haaland will be final piece in the jigsaw that enables us to do it. You can smell and feel the fear. In every desperate, pathetic newspaper article. In every bitter SKY & BT TV program. In every rancid talkSport radio show. When it happens their game is over and they have nowhere else to go. They tried and almost achieved in wiping us off the footballing map. I for one will never forget or forgive what they have done and what they have tried to do us and nor should any other City fan. You reap what you sow and their deeds and actions are about to be harvested.

 

[Stockton Heath Blue]

Exactly. The barometer changes daily. He's scoring goals, but how many touches does he have? He doesn't assist much, but he does. He doesn't link up play, but he does.
They all know fuck all but just keep moving the goalposts.
I want my striker to score goals first and foremost. Anything else he brings to the table is a bonus.
