Poor Clarkie and if not, do you honestly believe it for one moment.Presumably if we finish outside the top four the contract will see his wages drop.

Lets see if he signs first, Its seems to be taken as granted that hes signed up already, Tolmie has got a lot right in the past but lets not get carried away just yet.How would anybody outside of the upper echelons know Peps intentions?

That's correct. Though apparently he can then trigger a compensation clause where Aguero and Fernandinho have to restore his wages to their usual level out of their own pockets as a way of saying sorry for needlessly missing a fifth of the season through suspension. Txiki has also apparently agreed off the record to make a small contribution by way of apologising for the lack of suitable fullbacks at the club. That will actually see Pep turn a net profit so tbh he has no financial incentive to finish above fifth place at the moment. It's an outrage.

I dont but equally nobody knows he has either.

I'd imagine he'll ask how does anyone know it has been signed? If it had been signed I'd imagine the club would announce it to give some stability, especially in the transfer market.How do you know it's not been signed already just needs to be officially announced
Funny that Aguero has signed a contract extension but that hasn't been announced tooI'd imagine he'll ask how does anyone know it has been signed? If it had been signed I'd imagine the club would announce it to give some stability, especially in the transfer market.

Perhaps they are going to announce before the next home game, riding upto the stadium on white horses dressed in crusaders of the realm attire.
Odd though how the Sergio deal hasn't been announced yet-it was close on 12 months when this was first outed on here.

I genuinely never anticipated some degree of disappointment towards the best manager in the world wanting to stay in shitty rainy Manchester for longer than three years?
It would sadly seem the full metamorphosis of many a City fan is now fully complete?
A self-entitlement which has leeched its way in from the days of "we'll buy your club, and burn it down", to being now totally blinded as to what it means to be a supporter of this club in the first instance?
The team isn't performing but players will always come and go.
Unfortunately, we seem stuck with a majority of fans who don't even seem to enjoy being a City fan these days, which bizarrely seem to deliver its own contentment?
It's seemingly the older fans, too? Not the younger ones, but the ones who have shown amazing loyalty during the shittiest of times, yet now feel like the club is their own little fiefdom/drinking club and just have to sit back and await its rewards?
It's a two-way street. Pep is backing his entire career and reputation on doing the business for us.
It's a while since I felt we were actually backing both the manager of the club and its team.

You will never get every fan in a club agreeing on everything , we have short-termists who cannot see beyond the last result just like every other fan base. I don't sense any significant up swell of discontent with Pep in general. Some disappointed with current results possibly and a bit of bemusement over keepers but there are really not too many anti Pep fans.

Can pep really afford, in both capacities, to entertain signing messi??
His success at barca has always been tainted by having the greatest player of all time in his team, will he allow his ability to be questioned again if such things were actually capable....
Personally I think that ship has sailed and doesn't look like long term planning to me, fuck that ****...
We could feasibly sign x3 players, half a million less in wages per week and still have change...

I don't think its the majority of fans, maybe a fair quantity on this forum, but Bluemoon is hardly indicative of the support generally.
Personally, I'd give him 10 years, so I can just sit back and enjoy the ride...
