It was seriously true at the time, though last time i looked it didnt exist...

Wenger & fergie twinned financial doping into st. Bede's...if i recall right a youth tem had recently bounced utd and sunderland ( one of em 9-0 or 9-1 with half a dozen in the other/ vicky verky)

The quote from the murderers was ' you wont get away with that' or something to that effect

It was the Northwest based PL teams ManUre, Red & Blue Dippers, & Blackburn who complained, as City were hoovering up all the best local young talent, enabling us to splatter opposition teams by ridiculous scorelines. They threatened to boycott matches against City in protest, but IIRC little came of it bar bellyaching to the media.

Dunno about Liverpool & Blackburn, but ManUre & Everton definitely had similar private school arrangements with their kids. However, it was also the revolutionary high tech CFA & the social education side City offered that wowed most parents, hence ManUre being seriously pissed that the children of many of their players went to City.

I remember the story well but I can honestly say that I can never recall Wenger having anything to do with it. As @Dribble just said, it was the NW-based teams who were moaning about it.

Quite enjoy Mccoist. Makes a change to listen to someone who actually sounds like he enjoys his job and tries to focus on the positives in games where he can

He loves his job, Fletch. He really does.

He made a great run there, he really did.

They want to be getting out on this right wing, they really do.

McCoist!

ArseAnal & Spuds had similar issues with Chelsea in the London region, which is where Wenger came into it.

To compete, Everton offered very generous "expenses" to parents for travel to matches & for accommodation across the UK & Europe, amounting to £2000+ per month.

It worked for a while, but because things were falling apart for the PL team, which filtered down through the club, the generous "expenses" scheme ultimately ended up mostly attracting the kids who didn't make it at City, ManUre & Liverpool.
 
I cannot find footage of wenger adding his ' financial doping' to the caper along with whisky spouting its cheating ( on repeat) but i can recall they were running around with further paperwork to sign....

In fact looking at that Mail article the way theyve long-armed whisky you could be led to believe it was mufc youth team coach's that were rallying around getting other clubs involved.....useing their gaffers m.o

Mcoist is like Drury, when you only used to here them now & again, they seemed a breath of fresh air. Now we hear them every week following their paymasters line, you realise they're no better. Listening to Lee Dixon on US Network is completely different to when he's commentating on ITV.

What, he's not bald and ugly in the US?

There seems real genuine respect and enthusiasm from both sides, Wenger and all the City players and Pep. Great to see...

Wenger also helped shape the Premier League back in the day. Henry and Co were incredible back then...

To me it always seems like Micah likes us but is shilling for the money big time. Lee on the other hand genuinely seems to dislike us more every time I see him.

They both shill mate, but Lee was at least a City fan when he was younger but Richards isn't an never was.

Out of the two I prefer the tosser Dixon for that reason :)
