Re: United thread 2012/13. Simple answer is for ADUG to "loan" us £500m, with a repayment of £20m a year. We meet FFP requirements, we can spend a shit load of dosh on the best players, and everyone's a winner!

Re: The laugh at Everton thread. 2012/2999 Got a few mates who are Everton fans, and there are few more passionate supporters than them. They are a bit bitter about us now, but I remmeber for the past 30 years we were like kindred spirits in a scary world. Their fanzine "When Skies Are Grey"...

I actually laughed out loud at that!

Every word is as true today as it was then. Do you think I have changed just because we have won a couple of trophies? Do you think my values of being a City fan are tainted by success? Victory is fleeting, while the soul transcends such irrelevancies.

Few local pubs near Old Trafford? You sure? I can think of a dozen straight away.

And both will probably weigh the same as well...

No, it's good news! I'm sick of fucking working! Decent pay-off and pension should see me concentrating on my Sopranos box-set these next few months, and then I'll think about a part-time job. But thanks for the concern mate. As Gloria once warbled..."I will survive..."! Hope you are well...

Times are hard, made redundant yesterday! I used to never miss a game. Even the reserves, youth, friendlies, the fucking lot! Now it's EVERY home and the local aways. But even that might have to reduce given the cash flow! When you have to pay for your lad as well, it's a dear do football...

Birmingham City away a couple of years ago in the promotion season, I think we won and Kevin Horlock scored... Twenty minutes to go and the tannoy anouncer..."Will the owner of car registration number ..." go to the gate and speak to a policeman. As I left, all my mates were giving it the...

Can I bring the step ladder?

Ligament damage? I thought it was an abductor muscle? Anyone know what he's suffering from?

You daft sod. You've given away City's transfer policy on a public messageboard. We were hoping to get him for £15m, but are prepared to go to £20m... so any watching Gooner on this site will obviously warn Arsene about it! Loose lips cost £5m...

That's getting on for in excess of £200m in the space of a year! We've spent about a quarter of that sum! Time to unleash the dogs again...

Yeah you will...

I doubt if Chelsea will even sell the 13,000+ tickets they've been allocated. I assume they'll give them just the Holte End and hold on to the others just in case we want them.

I blame Coronation Street. Every other week someone ends up in the canal on that programme!

He's dating Destiny's Child now...?

By "reserve team regular" I meant watcher, not player! Anyway, you're not who I thought you were. I'll just have to think harder of all the saddoes I know that watch all the youth games, reserves games, and schoolboy games! I know a few, but most of them can't spell let alone write!

You are one of my favourite posters. I really appreciate all the news on the youths that you bring to the board. You are irreplaceable! Just out of interest, I assume you are a reserve team regular, are you "G" or "A" by any chance?

Great lad is Andy. Me and him were brought up kicking a football together on the wild streets of Hulme! Don't see him so much these days but his brother, Steve, is there every week. I think he did some coaching in America and a bit of media stuff... Andy was a bit of a rum lad in his teen...
