Old Trafford is being knocked down
Making room for the Fcuking clowns
Galziers staying 10 more years
City will still be on the beers
 
Interesting news about the Rags' new ground - Swamp Nou - today. It was oddly reminiscent of one of my old Yes bootlegs!

It's fine if people don't agree, but rag comments are pretty childish.

To say they aren't an attraction any more is just stupid though. What's the point in pretending? Yes, their on field troubles will be causing them issues, but they still have a fanbase that clearly attracts interest. They get 70+ thousand for every game and they have been rubbish for a few years.

According to Deloitte, revenues in 2023/24 were City (€837m) and Utd (€770m), so despite their much lower performance revenue (PL prize money, CL prize money etc) they must still be pulling in commercial revenue that is comparative to ours.

If I was a match going United fan I’d been a little cautious about this.

Most of us blues know how crap it is to get away from Wembley. Even the Etihad, since the South Stand was expanded, has become a nightmare (God knows what it will be like when the North Stand opens).

An extra 25k people trying to get to Old Trafford will be absolute bedlam (without a major overhaul of the public transport infrastructure).

The other side is that the club will use Arsenal’s “we need to pay off the stadium” excuse for years. Ticket prices will sky rocket. The Glaziers will benefit hugely from this while their club will be saddled with even more debt.

Everyone's favourite scousemanc Andy B is already there to save the day. You watch,as many fucking yellow trams as they need and none of this 3 or 4 out of service going past before one turns up to Ashton like they do after our games.
