Liverpool, United and Arsenal have exercised a quite clinical manipulation of the football authorities whilst masquerading as a force for the universal good of football.

Their orchestration of the media agenda has been systematic, constant, vicious and remorseless.

Very few people have talked about them in that way. It never happened. Nothing ever happened. Even while it was happening, it wasn't happening. It didn't matter. It was of no interest.

You have to hand it to them. It's brilliant.

The problem is it hasn’t worked. Not yet anyway.

With apologies to Harold Pinter.
 
|Headline From todays Daily Telegraph

Diplomatic Gulf​

The decision to block a UAE-backed takeover of The Telegraph has damaged relations with the Gulf state, a former Cabinet minister has warned.
I am shocked.

All the infrastructure and housing investment that's never talked about pulled from the country because of the xenophobic attitude of the UK.

Wouldn't blame them if that's all the thanks they get.

These three clubs along with Spurs were the drivers for the Super League and never seem to get a hard time for it. It’s no coincidence that the Super League arose after the Uefa case was chucked out by CAS, it’s also no coincidence that 115 charges happened after the super league was torpedoed. If this group of clubs don’t get their own way their dummies come out. Do you think the Premier League would have given a fuck where Mancini’s wages came from if City were languishing in mid table and not breaking up their cosy monopoly? I very much doubt it.
 
No they are not it’s a valid talking point it’s now damaging the PL,
Agree with this to a degree. But I also think that the reason it is so damaging is because its been reported in a way that amplifies the damage done with half stories and half-truths to build the narrative that the damage is all due to one club.
 
It seems that Arsenal supporters have suddenly discovered Der Spiegel or some of the other bits that have been around for months or even years.

I’ve seen loads of reposts about the British Embassy speaking to UAE about the charges like it’s a new embassy exclusive - ffs that came out months ago.

Arsenal supporters didn’t care until we beat them fair & square & now are absorbed in the cheats narrative & we’re happy to see us winning cos no one like Rags & Dippers.

Dippers were happy until…….. cos no one like Rags.

The crimson 3 have all united in pity but only when results turned.
 
I want 5 in a row before the case is resolved.

The level of pain and anger is something to behold. Little city ain’t so little anymore.

Social media phenomenon is happening against our club 24/7.

Don’t let them dictate your emotions. We as fans may not like it but the club must have a long term plan otherwise it makes no sense not to attack the media. They haven’t let us down yet. I just hope playing the long game works.

Disagree - I’ve never wanted to keep on winning as much as I do right now.

It’s glorious.
 

Who cares? Really! Who cares?

If everyone wants to watch that shit then it shows two things.

1. People are losers.
2. City hate is everywhere.

I spoke to a dip at work and the first thing he said was that we had empty seats lol. I burst out laughing and said…is that it? 4 in a row you’ll never sing that -:)

I love that we have broken them and let’s be honest here. City fans are not considered part of the football mainstream. Our humour is what sets us apart and a big reason why fans of clubs who ain’t the red tramps are ok with us winning.
