Fuckin state of that.

That should have been for the rags yesterday.

See how the media works. Negative story for the rags gets buried by a negative story about us.

Really fucked me off this.

I just don’t have it in me to get annoyed at sky………… i think it might be cos I watch it sat in Oz on a dodgy box & pay the cunts fuck all.
 
The rags are on the run. Its all falling apart in downward spiral.

The Glazer/Ferguson legacy is trophies, debt and decline, back to the post Busby years. Jims solution is to mimic City but we continue to pull ahead on every front. 115 will be forgotten by history.

The non story of the Rags money problems is corruption in plain sight. They can’t work on their own & they know it.

99.9% of football fans will have no idea which makes it easy to ignore.

Ain't it the truth?! Probably the biggest story in English football for ages and somehow (or should that be 'yet again'?) it's been sidestepped by our useless, venal, partial UK sports media.

I have a Geordie pal who lives over in York and who's as daft about Toon as I am about our beloved City. He knows all about our PL 'charges' (surprise, surprise!) but during recent weeks I've had to explain to him in some detail:

(a) the various, £multimillions in allowances sanctioned by the PL to enable The Red Filth to meet P&S rules and keep on buying players, in sharp contrast to the restrictions that my chum's beloved Toon (and other clubs) have been operating under

(b) the continuous losses made by that shower over the past 3-5 years which have come to light in the past day or so and the shenanigans once again sanctioned by the PL to enable it to be 'business as usual' at The Swamp, while the likes of Forest and Everton were awarded those cheeky points deductions!

(c) the overall debt profile that still applies at The Swamp and how those cuddly Glazers are still trousering dividends year on year, despite the losses and the enormous debts piled onto the club

My pal thanked me for the explanations, having had absolutely no idea of what has been going on to buoy up the Red Filth's ailing financial position, although he said the whole thing 'depressed' him (I said "Welcome to our world!".. and also "By the way, I am available for kids' parties, Bar Mitvahs etc.. search the web for me under 'Captain Chuckle'..")

It really is disgraceful what that lot across town gets away with, from this current financial stuff to the free-ride they're getting from the media regarding the building of 'The Wembley of the North'.

I keep saying it but one day some 'media johnny' may actually do his/her job and go after them.. in the meantime I'm not holding my breath, though..

Dunno mate. I'm still recovering from the broken leg I suffered in the 1960 FA Cup Final

Why on earth have you brought that up!
I know of a guy who suffered the same misfortune and I don’t think he’s ever mentioned it once.
It’s just attention seeking - stop it as it’s neither big or clever.
