So, the PL don’t want to see the beautiful game but would rather it be about entertainment rather than sport, putting in restrictions to aid multi-million pound clubs to compete while taking huge amounts out?

Not many I guess. I was at Scarborough on Thursday and had a City shirt on all day. The only person who commented was a lifelong Blue.

An amazing article.
Amazing because it's a perfect description of the situation regarding City and the Premier League.
But why is there only one journalist willing or able to look at the situation objectively?
His colleagues should hang their heads in shame. Either they are too thick and or lazy to analyse the situation or they have zero integrity. Whatever the reason, they are a bunch of cunts.

Not really ,not had any fan of other clubs say much about either case ,except the odd joke about playing in lower leagues. In fact the current case hasn’t been mentioned at all, since the initial leak. It’s more a media and social media thing than a real life thing.

Trying to remove my blue tinted specs, whilst appreciating this is near impossible, appears to be far more balanced.
Probably because he's a retained journalist and receives a salary, whilst the others are paid on clicks.

Every day's a school day; I honestly didn't know that.
He can't be the only retained journalist in the UK can he?
But he does seem to be the only journalist exercising any objectivity or integrity.
We’ve heard from everybody in the past week, since The Times broke the story of Manchester City’s challenge to the Premier League. Henny Penny, Cocky Locky, Goosey Loosey, Turkey Lurkey, Ducky Lucky, Chicken Licken.

Don’t tell the other click-bait journalist (not Samuel) that, otherwise they will all get upset and spit their red dummies out.
