I don't mind them getting a corner.
Didn't they have 109 consecutive corners without scoring a couple of seasons ago?
No seriously hard to believe but they're much worse than usPfft we do that 3 times a season.
Not another thing they’re worse than us at?No seriously hard to believe but they're much worse than us
That all seems a bit too tin foil hat.There was a very different story circulating at the time. One being that the Qatar bid was pie in the sky. Sheikh Jizzum wasn't even a real person, and when they were asked for proof of finances, they went very quiet, meanwhile putting out press releases about having gazzillions to throw at the project.
Scruffy Jim even joked in his first interview that the Qatar bid didn't even exist.
We have a new set piece coach so I expect something to change but not too optimisticNo seriously hard to believe but they're much worse than us
That **** White said that very line on talkshite the other week (less the bollocks bit). The other two presenters were talking and it went by unnoticed by them. He said it mid sentence when the other two were talking about the cunts. It was almost as if he got it in his earpiece and he just threw it into the conversationBollox, this is manchessnited we're talking about.

Also, because the PL is so wealthy, the clubs from 6-15 are usually among the richest 40 clubs in the world and can buy the best players from France, Portugal, etc, making them much more competitive too.The one thing I have been saying for so long now is that the rags are suffering because the playing field is now more or less level - in comparison to how it was.
At the start of the Prem no one had the money to compete with their extravagant transfer dealings. No other club could say: 'Sign him. Whatever it costs. If another club is prepared to pay XXX amount for him, we'll triple it.' On top of this officials were loathe to upset the Pisscan because he would ban them from refereeing any games featuring the rags. It got so ridiculous it was the Govan dictator himself who decided when full time was, FFS!
Things are a lot more even now: us, the dippers, Arsenal and Chelsea etc, can all stand shoulder to shoulder with the playground bullies and give them a bloody nose. It is this that has rattled their cages and it is this why they want to push the responsibility onto the Glazers, or Worzel, or anyone else for that matter.

Surprised ICE haven't put him in a US detention centre.What’s happened with Rashford, I assume that Barca prised him away from Villa hands?
The Raine group are no mugs. They managed the sale of Chelsea to multiple bidders. When they asked the Qatar bid for proof of finances they weren't able to produce the details. They had a signed letter from a bloke at the bank and the prime ministers brothers cousins nephew, but all the Raine group needed to see was proof of the money sitting in an account, and it was never provided.That all seems a bit too tin foil hat.
I think the more plausible 'conspiracy' related to the Qatar bid was that they were attempting to claim that it wasn't actually the State of Qatar that was effectively the bidder and trying to suggest that the Sheikh was just a private individual looking to buy united.
Of course he was!

The Mayne Line Crew had a few good set pieces in their day tooThe only set piece coach we'll have will have Finglands written on side
They should be very careful what they wish for. Qatar sponsors of hamas a terrorist organisation, can't wait for the spin.That all seems a bit too tin foil hat.
