A follow on request, which is probably too much to ask for: does anybody have a breakdown of what we get from whom in terms of overall revenue?
Ta,

That's him. Top poster.If it's the same Ted Hughes that I think it is he's a decent poster on cityfans.net

Not a bad Poet Laureate either.:)
The more I read from this guy the more I'm convinced he needs some professional help, either psychiatric or medical I'm not sure. There is something seriously wrong with the guy and his lickspittles are doing him no favours geeing him on.Atwood is almost too funny to be true. It's as if someone has sat down and thought of every single cliché and Arsenal fan stereotype and created the comic character Tony Atwood. I can imagine him sat at his keyboard, the tapping getting every louder the angrier he gets, face dripping with snot and tears and his chest heaving with racking sobs. The very epitome of the modern gooner. I hope his haemorrhoids get infected and he shits hedgehogs for the rest of his life.
The worry to me is it shows how easily supporters (or even humans) are influenced by a message eminating from their supposed mouthpiece. Such are they being hood winked by their owners, that Arsenal fans are quite prepared to pay the highest ticket prices in world club football (i'm guessing) and accept that balancing the books is the most important aspiration in a football clubs mantra. Of course the Arsenal board didn't wasnt to do what ADUG were doing and therefore had to moralistically demonise the practice of non loan leveraged investment and make us the evil antithesis of all that is good and right. And the Gooners just lapped it up, jumped on the ricketty high horse and paid through the nose for their unambitious football team. Quite brilliant by Arsenal but the fans just can't see it.Take a bow Ted Hughes, whoever you are:

"I also, like many City fans, used to have a great admiration for Arsenal, but now that has disappeared completely, dut to constantly reading & hearing stuff like this coming from their supporters & management.
City’s owner has committed the great sin of investing in his football club. That’s it. In the eyes of many of the ‘big 5′ supporters, that is ‘cheating’. But of course it never used to be ‘cheating’ it used to be ‘good owenership’ compared to those who take money out.
Now taking money out is ‘good ownership’ & putting money in, is ‘bad ownership’ & Arsenal & their fans are accountants, takling about it all the time.
Sheikh Mansour hasn’t bribed referees, or fixed matches or paid for the World Cup to go to Russia, he has invested in his football club, like owners & interested parties have been doing for over 100 years, including at Arsenal, rescuing them when needed. It was never seen as a problem in football, until clubs like yours, scared of missing out on the gravy train of the Champions League, petitioned UEFA to turn it into one, & it became ‘cheating’.
But in every other type business, it is perfectly ok to invest money & the European courts would not allow any restictions, in fact what UEFA & the cartel of clubs, including Ardenal are doing, would be ‘cheating’& it would be stopped.
Now UEFA have found City guilty of investing too much money & punished them, they have changed the rules to allow other clubs to do what they have punished City for doing, but City will not be allowed to do it, as they are being punished for doing it.
And this of course is not ‘cheating’. So now Berlusconi, that virtuous Italian politician, & one of the main people behind this along with Aresenal etc, can sell AC Milan to someone with money, who can do what Sheikh Mansour did, except not be punished for it.
And you know what the funny thing is ? Apart from the blatant, flesh crawling, backslapping corruption of the cartel, involving Arsenal, Utd, etc in engineering this ridiculous set of rules, City fans don’t actually give a stuff. Why ? Because the club is making so much money that it doesn’t matter& it is only justbeginning.
They will have to find something else to stitch us up with, because ffp has failed, so when it is eventually found to be illegal, we won’t need the judgement anyway"

You've got more patience than me arguing with the tosspots I'll tell you that bud.That Walter Broeckx is just as bad - he's Attwood's sidekick and is forever on a trolling mission, his latest claim being that Arsenal have never bought any of their trophies when evidence clearly suggests they've benefitted from cash injections from rich benefactors!

I gave my views twice this morning on that blog and funnily enough, they've been deleted.
No abuse, no foul language just a few straight answers to some of the lies they like to spout.
Cowards.
