and in auditing "audit sum amounts" at the end of an audit refer to a Summary of Uncorrected Misstatements (SUM), a record of all identified errors or omissions that have not been corrected. The audit team can assess whether uncorrected misstatements in total result in a material misstatement, even if individually they are not material.

It's only the older fans imo who may worry or the older ones from other clubs giving it large. The younger ones don't give a rats arse as they don't listen to the mainstream media.

Unfortunately no stretch of the imagination could lead me to be considered a younger supporter!!!! But I hope you're right.

Again, sport is about having recognition for your achievements and without recognition you're left with shit. This is pretty much the biggest sporting autopsy in English football ever and the people who brought these charges forward are/were and will always kill the games reputation by poisoning the well, and they do this to make money and for no other reason.

They have killed the game as a working class spectacle it's now a shadow of the grit it used to be and what we are left with is a mass of happy clapping gimps taking photos and partaking in the food and club shop whilst not knowing fuck all about the history of the sport and its football integrity.

We sold out and we need to buy back.

okay, i think i have your drift now, mate.
i just needed to be certain of where exactly you are coming from.

when you said to me,
"it's not reggae because it sounds fuck all like it"
you were referring solely to, as you call it, proper reggae.
if i am right on that,
you simply meant it doesn't sound like original reggae,
or as i'd call it, traditional reggae.

i cannot disagree with that, nor would i want to do.
but i don't think reggae ended in 1970's when new influences and factors came mixing into the brew.



for me dancehall is still reggae of a sort.
i also don't care for the content of some of the lyrics,
but i still see it as being reggae.
that's where we are at odds.
i didn't shut the door with the early 1970's changes.

when i was living in hulme in the mid to late 80s i used to go to the psv club.
downstairs they would play dancehall interspersed with traditional reggae.
upstairs was mostly dub.

like i said,
i see all the off-shoot genres as still falling under the umbrella of the word reggae.
i don't think i'm alone in that and i doubt david rodigan does either, although i shouldn't speak for other people.

also like i said,
i deliberately posted recent stuff.
you are right, it sounds fuck all like (as we have now established) traditional reggae,
but i still see it as falling under the label reggae.
that's just my opinion and the opinion of respected journalists, producers, fans, and more importantly, traditional reggae artists who are collaborating with mungo's hifi.

do you see bob marley's popular (later in his career) records as reggae?
you suggest the shift towards more produced sounding records was someting (that was a typo but i'm going to leave it hahaha some ting) of an off-putter for you.
he certainly lost that early raw, real instrument sound that you say troubled you a little with dancehall being labelled as reggae.

going back to the early 70s.
when folk like lee scratch perry were popularising dub.
my obvious question is,
do you see dub as reggae or something separate?

and just to offer you something new that might not offend your tastebuds,
this is from 2years ago.
they are from copenhagen and i think they are wonderful wonderful :)

what would you class their music as?

Absolute fair fucks to you mate. Quality views well delivered :)

We both love the genre, which is really all that matters so jah bless :)

Dub is defo reggae just an even more “stoned”, slowed down version. Get on the dub version of Night Nurse (“Dub 2”) for example - serious solo ganja session material that!

I’ll have a listen to the clip when I’m home later.

The problem is that the majority of fans from opposing teams believe it’s true.. that’s permanent damage as they’ll never believe we’re not guilty even if they find in our favour over 115

The level of fucks that i give about what opposing fans think is so microscopic it cannot accurately be measured by known instruments.

Yeah his point doesn’t make sense. Most city fans were delighted to cheer Chelsea on as they took on the red cartel while we were in lower divisions.

It’s probably why we don’t have any real rivalry with Chelsea in spite of them popping us to the champs league and a title we didn’t really compete for.

We weren't in the lower divisions when Chelsea got taken over. We stabilized 2002-onwards after that disastrous 1996-2001 period. Chelsea got taken over in 2003.
We don't have a rivalry with Chelsea because we never properly competed for the PL titles with them, we aren't from the same city and we are both challenging the red cartel. I've also heard that Boehly is very friendly with Mansour.

Quite frankly i couldnt give a rats ass whether u do or u dont the same sentiments go for our fans as well if u live ur life consumed by what strangers on social media think then its a really sad way to be, if people like you and agree with you great, if people dont like you and disagree with you then so be it, the former are your people and you should gravitate towards them the latter are irrelevant.
