they'll be queuing up (well the list needs updating - one or two are no longer with us)

That looks like something you would see on a noticeboard at a Police Station appealing for public help locating members of a paedophile ring.
 
Simon Stone lurking like the grim reaper to deliver his 'killer' blows looked sick on the ten o'clock news. Made even better when they returned to Clive Myrie grinning ear to ear saying "the sun shining on city fans tonight, now for the weather!"
They're not all bad after all.
Yeah, Clive gets a pass.
 
What point are you trying to make pal ?

I have stated that the chancellor did not talk about any money for Utds stadium,just the overall development of old Trafford (the area) and to stress the point she then said no money will be made avable for the stadium development itself ?
Or am I misunderstanding u ?
Not sure your use of 'pal' is a term of endearment here but my point is that she did directly reference the rags - OT is specifically their stadium not the surrounding area. She did not say "no money will be made available for the stadium development itself" (see transcript of speech) The Labour Party using funding the scum as propaganda is almost as despicable as getting Ratboy to star in their adverts and events.
 
Happened to flick sky sports news on at 11.
'city were just 45 minutes from going out'....

Ohhhh I did chuckle. Me and the Mrs were only 2 numbers from winning the lotto...we didnt go out and we didnt win the lotto. Totally irrelevant

Rollon the 115 verdict because that will be a thing to behold. The hornets nest will be stirred for sure...
Rags were only 8 points and +16 goals from qualifying for the Champions League…
 
Mmm the impartial BBC at it again. Just a short selection from their sport page:

Man City avoid Champions League humiliation as Real or Bayern await

Manchester City's Champions League campaign could have gone the same way as the merchandise stand outside Etihad Stadium that went up in flames before kick-off - but a fightback on the pitch meant they scraped into the play-offs.

City's final placing of 22nd in the new Champions League opening phase after Wednesday's 3-1 win against Club Brugge should be a source of embarrassment to a club of such high ambition, winners of this tournament in 2023.

Guardiola's side faced the humiliation of not even making the play-offs.

Pep Guardiola's Premier League champions knew only victory would suffice to avoid the abject embarrassment of slipping out of the top 24 places in the tournament's new format.
 
Sorry, but I don't agree with that. At the start of the night, Liverpool were already guaranteed one of the top two places and through to the last 16. City were outside the play-off qualification places, having just been battered in Paris. Those are just facts, and the opening sequence reflected those. There was plenty of peril for City last night, not least of which was being behind at half-time and not playing particularly well. It's understandable most of the punditry focused on that. Ex-City Joe Hart gave a good account of himself during the show (and on 5Live during the build-up). I don't rate Warnock as a pundit, but can you really argue that City haven't got themselves to blame for finishing 22nd (on goal difference) and facing a tricky play-off tie? As for the final sequence, it was a relief that City got through, but hardly something to over celebrate? Brugge were clearly delighted to get through and there were some lovely shots of them celebrating after the match. It was a nice way to start. Would you have preferred to see Pep kicking a drinks container instead? The sequence also finished with Savinho's goal.
If taken in isolation that seems a plausible defence but in the context of BBC's coverage of our club for a decade under Roan et al that intro/outro in reality just reinforces their relentless anti-City narratives while uncritically pumping out dipper propaganda ad nauseam. Such a shame the rags aren't in the frame for them to feed lies about us to that sad part of their mass redshirt audience too. I have the impression you may be connected in some direct way to our national broadcaster and if so please tell us how the sort of biased straplines on today's football webpages can be justified?

The ToryGraph this morning, second para of our match report, suggested that our CL season was in flames at HT. Anybody think besides the kiosk going up that our CL hopes were up in flames? Perhaps the scribbler wasn't expecting a repeat of the CFC game. - one down then three up! Oh, how we've dashed the English media hopes time 'n time again. From a mere glance at the other games involving English clubs, they were more than happy with the Dippers leading the table despite the previously penned notion that they would be unbeaten, and The Arse 'n Villa.

Rag central on Salford quay. It's so obvious they aren't even pretending.

Stark contrast to the scouse love-in.

No, what is embarrassing is Arsenal's CL record over all their seasons of qualification.

No, Neville will set a false narrative like when he talked about this throwing his hands in the air, it doesn’t make sense.

He won’t look at all revenue streams & say City have never claimed to earn more on match day or commercial but they are so successful they make more in broadcast. The bloke not only works in TV, he produces the overlap so to say he doesn’t understand this is a fucking joke. Once he says it, it becomes fact & is repeated.

Saying City are brilliant & the Rags are shit doesn’t make him fair.

Funny isn't it our owners put their own money into developing the Etihad, the campus the surrounding area etc pay taxes.
Yet the rags want tax payers money to do the same, yet their owners do pay tax etc.
