Dont normally listen to Talkshite they are basically wind up merchants ,but was in a taxi and it was on this morning Simon Jordan and pigeye Murphy drolling on about how we will never be as big as the Dippers or Rags , Jordan even saying when Sheik Mansour gets bored we will be back in the third tier of football looking for another Paul Dickov
What makes me chuckle is its the Rags & Dipper apoligists who keep on spouting the shit about how City will never be a big club , it appears to bother them far more than our supporters and that is because realistically we are on course to match them in the next decade.Young kids are buying City shirts , i went to Costa Del Sol last week and there are loads of kids wearing City shirts and there are a lot more Haaland shirts in the tourist shops than Salah or Fernandes or any Rag'Dipper players.
Personally i couldnt give a f*ck , ive supported my team through the bad times and i am living the dream , the likes of Pigeye and Pretty boy Jordan have probably never paid for a match ticket in their lives , they take their pieces of silver not for their genuine opinions but to follow an agenda Talkshite give them , they havent got an ounce of credibility and tow the line or they do not get paid , morally bereft pair of f*ckers.

First of all, you should have stopped the taxi and got out. Nobody should have to listen to that shite, let alone pay fir the privilege.
I'm slightly glad you didn't do that though because it did tickle me to think that the likes of Jordan are resorting to the old 'when the sheikh gets bored' routine.
It's such ill-thought out drivel.
I mean, imagine if he did decide he wanted out.
What do these people think will happen to the infrastructure that CFG have manifested around East Manchester?
We're talking about the finest facilities in world football.
Who do they think would buy the club?
Granted, the next owners wouldn't be as good (or at least I can't imagine how they could possibly be) but the every serious sports investor on the planet would want a piece of City. And they wouldn't be spanking the billions the club would cosy to play lower division football.
With or without the sheikh (hopefully with) City are at the top to stay. Certainly, for the rest of Simon Jordan's life.

PS: while I am on the subject,... to the people on thos thread who keep calling for the defunding of the BBC. Think along the same lines as above... what becomes of the infrastructure and bandwidth? I'll tell you shall I? Sme **** like Murdoch buys it all. Or maybe just a piece of it and the rest goes to other US/ Chinese/ Middle Eastern media groups.
Reform the BBC? Fuck, yes. Defund it? You're off your game.

We’ve already lost one CL Final against a team we should’ve hammered, we were knocked out of a QFinal by VAR which would’ve put us against Ajax in the semi and then a winnable final v Liverpool. So with a little more luck we could now be looking at having won 3 CL instead of one. We are basically knocking on the door of catching united’s haul of 3 CL trophies and the smart money says it’s only a matter of time before that door opens and at the same time we keep mopping up PL title after title. If it’s history these pundit types say it is we lack then isn’t that what we’re creating with every single trophy we mop up? The Sheikh has been here 15 years and in another 15 years we could have completely eclipsed everything that Liverpool and united has ever won and have gone on to be the biggest club in world football. Yet these arsehole pundits will still be spouting bollocks that the Sheikh will get bored (he’ll still be a young man in 15 years ffs!) and City will be playing Gillingham and Chesterfield before you can say Bob’s yer uncle. SJIAC.

I don't know about anyone else but despite having seen my team win 5 of the last 6 PL titles, a domestic clean sweep and a PL/FA Cup/CL treble, I still go to bed crying that we'll never be bigger than them in Asia.

Exactly, what constitutes the success of a club. Surely all you want as a fan is trophies. Who gives a flying fuck how many shirts you sell.

Think back to Sheik Mansour's takeover - who really thought City would dominate England's (and hopefully, European) club football, for such a long time ?

Me, honestly I did, without a word of a lie, it was never in doubt.
I came home from work and told Mrs Manchester, this is it. We danced round the room singing " who the fxck are man united;-)

Personally, I couldn't give a toss if nobody considers us a "big" club... I'd rather stay small and just keep hoovering up the silverware!
It does make me chuckle though, when bell-ends like Jordan, Murphy or any media mouthpieces and opposition fans spout shite like this!!!
"City will never be as big as United/Liverpool etc. etc." ...but they never say why or more importantly adddress why these clubs are considered "big"!
United and Liverpool are so popular because they won lots of shiny trophies... simple as that! Liverpool won lots of titles and European Cups, United were fortunate to win just as Sky started broadcasting worldwide and generations of plastics grew up knowing nothing but Rag success... but it's City that are now winning a lot - conisistently for more than a decade now... and as others have mentioned, with Haaland (who is a legitimate superstar - kids love him) we are the increasingly popular choice for the younger generations... there are indeed increasing amounts of City shirts showing up everywhere nowadays – it's the nature of football nowadays, look at pricks like Goldstein and Goldbridge... the simple reason they support the Rags is they were good when they were young – so why do they try and dismiss the fact that City are now that team?

Personally i don't want fans from Plymouth, support your local team ..utd and Liverpool never understand that. Pair of capitalist wankers stealing from small clubs purses

37 attempts at goal v 3 attempts at goal, we scraped through!

In other news I used to think there was a bond between City and Rangers, certainly was in the 70s and 80s; that news certainly hasn’t reached Ally McCoist, just watched the goals on tv, the only goal the fucker got excited about was our opponents scored

City have as much or more affinity with Celtic, ...most of the music stalwarts in the town are irish roots blues and Celtic tinged...Marr, O'rouke = Smiths, Billy Duffy, Gallaghers. List goes on. Blue here from North Manchester ..atcmy Catholic school and team easily as many blues who preferrred Celtic to Rangers, seems strange this Rangers myth
