Doubt it’s got anything to do with Soros mate - this stinks of the Christian right, which is hardly his agenda.

Thing is those kind of long term loan deals rarely happen these days. They tend to be structured as a sale with a built in buy-back, just like JT’s previous deal with Burnley. Gives the other Club a bit more purchase in the deal, to warrant the time and energy they put into developing the...

Objectively, that’s complete bollocks. One of the most overused phrases on this forum is ‘This one’s on Pep’. People think it makes them sound tough and uncompromising - exacting, and steadfast in holding the Club to the highest of standards. Whereas in fact it makes them sound like they...

Course you are, petal. Liverpool were well beaten by a far better team, and no amount of hand-wringing over the minutiae of a single, specific refereeing decision in the context of a comprehensive 90+ minutes of cogent, pummelling superiority will change the indisputable truth of that fact...

And “you’re”

Yeah - I don’t like the look of that midfield at all! I get that Gonzalez is clearly not fully fit, but I’d rather have Kova in there alongside Bernardo if that’s our only option - and lose one of Foden/Reijnders. Looks very lightweight as is!

Gundo and KDB have produced absolutely fuck all for City this season. No way either should be starting this game, IMO.

‘Dip’ Very clever!

Read my posts - at no point did I say it was gospel. I relayed what they’d said, and - again, if you actually read my words, rather than making wild assumptions based on absolutely fuck all - included plenty of caveats that in my view it clearly wasn’t based on any recent material updates or...

I don’t recall flagging anything to any specific posters at any point during my posts that day, but if I’m wrong - let me know. There were quite a few of them in the end, granted!

Having read that article, Gaughan’s actual words read like a fairly anodyne, unsubstantiated statement from a much wider Q&A that City’s view is as it always has been: we’ll clear our name. Definitely not presented as a hot of the press update based on recent developments/knowledge, so I’m...

I’m well aware no-one with more than half a brain looks to craven lickspittles like Ronay for objectivity - but did he genuinely say that?

Funny you should mention that - my PM feed isn’t showing anything just yet, but I’m sure that’s simply down to people taking a bit of time to find the right wording before sending them over.

I’m staying out of this one! ;-)

We didn’t get into a deep dive on the case, so I can’t say how exhaustive their knowledge on any of this stuff is - but they definitely seemed informed, and clearly understood the broad arguments in play. But I’d expect that, given their positions. This is a very high profile case for them...
