A very minor point, but would it surprise to to learn that Souness actually supports Spurs and City? Grew up a Tottenham fan, married into a family of our lot. He's sympathetic to Liverpool given his decorated career there, sure, he does fight their corner a lot, but he's got skin in the game...

Without wanting to lower the mood, how could we have cleared our name before the panel when we know the hearing isn't scheduled until late Autumn? Multiple sources are saying October.

That Football is Fixed Twitter account is absolute gobbledegook. I know we all want muck to sling, but look at the reach of their tweets, the language used, the following to followers ratio. If you believe that sort of stuff you'll be out demonstrating against 5G masts next. It's a load of...

Whilst respecting that the person who shared is a longstanding poster, if our defence to accusations of what basically amounts to a decade of alleged accounting fraud is "but...but...referees" my gut feeling is we might be up shite creek without a paddle. I think he's been fed some hooky...

I've decided to re-engage with the City socials so I can keep up to date with recent developments. Seems to be a different world to when I knocked them on the head about four years ago. Who are the best ones to follow now? Particularly interested in academy and EDS stuff, fanzine pieces and...

Bernardo is ten times the player Grealish is, let's stop kidding ourselves. I'll support him whenever he pulls on the shirt, but it was as unecessary and egotistical a signing for us as Ronaldo was for them lot. He's nowhere near intelligent enough to offer what someone like Bernardo has.

If we sell Bernardo - our best player after De Bruyne - to one of our direct rivals for the Champions League, when they can't even register players, for about half of what he's realistically worth, when the season's already started, then we're not a serious club, in my opinion, and you can put...

None of the links so far working. Anyone?

Can someone PM me a reliable link?

It was obvious something was up. After the Wycombe game Pep namechecked virtually every academy player but left him out. Thought it was weird at the time. Nobody can blame any of these lads for leaving. Let's be honest - City primarily see the academy as a reliable revenue stream, like Real...

Evening, Lapsed Bluemooner. I'm looking for a good City pub either in town or within walking distance of town. I've not watched the Blues in a boozer in years, tend to go to the games or watch at home, but got a couple of pals visiting Manchester for the next couple of weeks so after somewhere...

Apologies for the belated bump, but obviously COVID has had quite a big impact on smaller clubs, so wanted to try to point a few Blues in the way Maine Road FC... Facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/MaineRoadFC/ They've had issues with Twitter over the last year or so. Had over 10,000...

Blue since '91 and lapsed Bluemooner. I've not read all of the thread, forgive me, but i wanted to specifically ask about the realistic knock-on of this decision onto the investment in the club from China and the United States, and the major sponsorship deals like Puma etc. Around 22% of the...

I think this Liverpool fan in the Der Spiegel replies might be the most triggered football fan ever...

Could anyone let me know a decent link?
