just had a brief visit to rawk. They bang on about our success not meaning anything to fans of other clubs. Er…Fans are interested in their own clubs only. Where do they get this delusion that they are special, it means more, everyone cares about them etc? Also this gem (the author having...

I can’t stand listening to the guff about City spouted by people who ought to know better. The first time City breached FFP was made to seem worse as explained by PB years ago due to the criteria being altered (in the interests of natural justice and fairness…NOT) after previous assurances had...

Article in today’s Times. Reporter Paul Joyce. Headline “The step-by-step guide to winning the Quadruple”. There follows a nauseatingly sycophantic two pages worth of all things dipper. It concludes with….”The coach’s perspective - Phil Thompson was the assistant to Houllier between 1998 and...

For the true virtual reality experience I’d stick to virtual CBL3 with the FOC’s. having a moan if we’re not at least 3-0 up. That’s my kind of matchday.

I detest this notion of a coefficient whether or not it benefits City. As other posters have said how far back in time would be appropriate to assess it? Just base it on league position (preferably top 2 only) and streamline it so it actually means something again. The early stages are boring...

“Where …..the board determines in its reasonable opinion that the relevant transaction is evidently not at fair market value….” The lawyers will argue for years about this alone, apart from the fact that the “Board” will have to be seen to be acting without any consideration of vested interests...

Dont know where to start with Deloony’s “article”. Just one point though - he refers to the drawbridge being pulled up, without, apparently, any conception of the wider implications of such a statement. He bewails City’s success, but presumably would have had no problem about any club except...

Its worth reading the judgement in full. It deals with all aspects thoroughly (acknowledging nevertheless that some potential evidence of fact is no longer available due to the passage of time, and the deaths of people there at the time so to speak). The legal reasoning is comprehensive and I...

who cares about who doesn’t care about city

Given City have forensically demonstrated (via CAS) that they abide by FFP rules, and are subject to the same squad size limits as the rest of the P.L. I fail to see any sensible argument to support the notion of unfair advantage. If only the numerous erudite geniuses earning a living as sports...

But presumably that would be ok for football

Woman on Amazon going on about squad depth! er 5 seniors are injured

They should be looking at why Villa got the corner. Obvious foul on Zin and that “incompetent” decision by Dean distorted the 2nd half, dont usually moan about refs but Dean was terrible tonight

….sorry meant to quote this Quote from Bill Walker Saturday 12.50 “I still struggle all these years later as a amateur/semi pro musician how those two did it.. two working class lads with zero musical training became the biggest band in the world, writing such great songs and performing them...

I wonder why only City’s ownership is regularly forensically analysed by such paragons of objectivity such as Conn. Presumably every other football club in existence has been founded, funded and administered with impeccable ethics. I thank him for telling me it was City’s lawyers who had the...

No cause for alarm. If the rags beat Leicester tomorrow, which they probably will, the top four is on again for the dippers who therefore will not lack motivation at old toilet on Thursday against a by then tired United. Even so to worry that we cannot manage 3 (or realistically 2) points from...

Ffs

Having previously trusted and admired the owners, especially after CAS I still find it incredible that, unless City are doing some sort of triple Clarkie, they did not anticipate such a reaction to a blindingly obviously unfair and ridiculous proposal. Even within its own grotesque rules it is...

City and Chelsea had the chance to stand against this and marginalise the clubs we either detest or are irrelevant. They chose instead to pitch in with them. Even if it makes business sense I just can’t get my head around it because no doubt in the long run City will get screwed and I don’t know...

Same here. Like the guts of everything you believed about City, and football generally has been ripped out. Fucks it all up for me.
