PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Colin Bells Boots]

If he hadn't been quite good at football as a kid, he'd have most probably led a life of petty crime, drug dealing and generally being a bit of a bellend that you try to avoid at all costs.... like most of his mates by all accounts

And still supporting Everton ?

 

[Protein Junkie]

Certainly needs adding to Wikipedia. An example they say !!

Carragher was awarded the Freedom of the Borough of Sefton for his local charity work and "the exceptional example he sets to the youth of today" .

I know that myself in the media, if I do a newspaper article on Liverpool or Man United, the amount of clicks is going to get compared to City because people aren't as interested in Manchester City. That's not a criticism, that's just a fact. We know that from viewing figures on Sky Sports. If Man United or Liverpool play they go through the roof. If Manchester City, it doesn't move the needle. And again, it's not a criticism, it's just a fact.
We know those things. They’re facts. So for City to say that they bring in more revenue than some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League or Real Madrid is just a nonsense.

new york times: credible source

ill-educated tv banter clown who spits on children, described by co-workers as ‘chip on his shoulder, capable of saying anything for attention’: less credible source

These are the kinds of comments the club should be challenging, especially from a dirty rat like him.

most watched game over the seasons
23/24 Manchester City vs Arsenal
22/23 Manchester City vs Arsenal
21/22 Manchester City vs Liverpool
20/21 Manchester City Vs Liverpool

if only there was something common about all these games

Yesterdays men from Trafford dont feature in any of them?

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

He's absolutely right though. That is exactly what the fans of rival clubs will believe

Maybe we should have asked for the police station duty solicitor to represent us. No offence to police station duty solicitors but what ppl believe we are guilty of must cross criminal thresholds.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

He's absolutely right though. That is exactly what the fans of rival clubs will believe

And they'll believe it because of cunts in the media like him, Delaney, Harris, Herbert and others have been mendaciously pushing this narrative for years, since the original FFP issues in 2014, while ignoring the facts.

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

He’s well behind on where the narrative is going with the 115 hearing. City are being measured up and being deemed guilty by sporting body that drafts illegal rules which contravene the laws of this country, acts in bad faith towards one of its stake holders and doesn’t know how to understand and interpret the language of its own rule book. How can City be deemed guilty by the Premier League which acts illegally? They are losing their credibility as a sporting organisation day by day at the moment, if I were Carragher as a pundit to show knowledge and credibility he needs to get himself on the right side of where this is going. He’s too thick and indoctrinated by the dipper cult to do so.

Even though he was apparently a childhood Evertonian.

Absolutely, but many also need to believe it, despite the facts

Do we care though? Really? I want to win the case and that’s it. I’m not wasting any time on what our rivals think.

I don't. I was simply pointing out that what he said was likely true.

 

[old blue]

Yes, actually amazing that no one at Sky (in particular) has reined him in, as I’m pretty sure he’s said the same on there. I think it would be different if he’d been a bit cannier by saying something a bit more nebulous about the numbers not subjectively adding up more broadly, but he’s specifically referred to our turnover, compared it with other clubs, and stated that the numbers are (or must be) false, which is pretty definitive, and I’d say therefore far easier to rebut and pin something on from a defamation point of view.

What annoys me more than the wilful failure to rein in the diatribes from this Herbert, is the haste that Sky showed Rodney the door when he made the bad taste joke about the Toon Army. Jokes not allowed but defamation and spitting on kids acceptable.

I do - have had years of dealing with red **** fans - and when we are cleared I'm setting aside a couple of weeks to give plenty back and wallow in their bitter tears

"...proven not guilty..."

Proven (adjective).
1. Demonstrated by evidence or argument to be true or existing.


"....will all believe.."

Believe (verb).
1. Accept that something is true, especially without proof.

Stupid. (Adjective)
Having or showing a great lack of intelligence: "Jamie Carragher is stupid because he does not understand what proven or believe means"

I doubt if he even knows it is a civil case.

Never ever change supporting a team
Turncoat !

 

[Beaker]

This is something I can’t get my head around. Even if I’d played for United, or anybody else for that matter, I couldn’t simply stop supporting City. The fact he appears to revel in Everton’s struggles is just baffling.

There were a few Evertonians at that time playing for Liverpool..
