Was just about to post something like that. I'd go as far as to say add Blackburn (apart from the fluke this season at the swamp) & Wolves (especially) to that list and let's get 3 sides up who'll give them a fight and not send out half their reserve side expecting a loss.......... At the end...

Don't really collect memorabilia but was going through an old box in my garage containing stuff my mum had been keeping for me the other day and found a cloth patch. It's a bit like the american sergeants chevrons in white with blue stitching where the gold would be. On it is Manchester City...

Re: Delloite Financial Figs positive for future Well, we should be getting a minimum of £65m from the CL and the new Etihad/Campus sponsorship so that will take us to approx £220m. We could even end up in 5th place depending on how Arsenal do in the CL as a lot of those above us a) aren't going...

Net spend, purchases minus sales They are skewed hugely by the £80m Ronaldo sale, if you took that out they'd be 3rd highest spenders behind Chelsea and us. Wouldn't be accurate but that one sale equalled buying in 3 world class players or up to 8-12 "great prospects". They really hit it...

Fucling hell, that is insane. I knew we were getting a lot of bad decisions/cards compared to earlier in the season but that statistic screams out bias.

Agreed, winning at all costs is not where I want us to be. I'd rather we didn't win the PL than see that odious little shit in the city strip again. The sheikh isn't going anywhere, there'll be plenty more years of success to come.

Under Fat Sam! The poor kid will be scarred for life :p

Unbelievable, that at the time I voted 36% would allow that orc twat to play for us after the way he has treated our club and the fans. So fucking what if it means we don't get the PL title this year, it's not as if there won't be other years without that loathsome, mercenary scum in the side...

Fuck Tevez, I'd rather we came 4th than see that horrible orc in a city shirt again. I'd rather we recall and play Harry Bunn or Nimely and I don't care if they might be crap compared to Tevez, I want players out there who want to play for the club. At the end of the day most players play for...

On strictly monetary terms ignoring inflation we have spent a crap load more, especially in net terms (if you subtract sales). For net figures, the issue is the rags have been selling top class players from a winning squad, hence could get top prices for them. We've been selling dross (with...

Any coincidence that Germany and Spain have probably the strongest teams in the world and in the case of Germany, have had for donkeys years even when not top?

How the fuck can he appeal when he hasn't even been in the country. If the FA uphold his appeal I'll be gobsmacked........then again, it is the FA.........

Would need to be Defoe plus £8m for me to even think we had a reasonable deal out of it. Defoe isn't that bad and gives us another option, an out and out goal hanging speed machine. Aguero can do that role but is much better technically than Defoe.

Re: Wayne Bridge have you no shame They'll be paying £30k/week tops I'd guess, still, that's £300k we aren't spending and IF he performs well we may get another loan out of him next season. Bridge may want to put himself in the shop window next year as he is out of contract in 2013 but my...

Not sure how FFPR works on this. Would it be an advantage to City if we sold him for £18m but also subsidised his wages at Spurs. Or better if we sold him for £8m and let spurs pick up his wages in full - or doesn't it matter? Without know the details of his contract I can only guess but...

Potentially 2 1/2 years IF he doesn't want to play football and just bank his basic wages with no bonuses, image rights etc. That's still going to cost us, I'd guess, £150k/week so £15m (maybe up to £20m) for 2 years (from summer). Due to his age he can buy out his contract in summer, but that...

Re: Wayne Bridge have you no shame Slightly different situation, Smith is out of contract in 6 months and not getting any game time so if he wants to be picked up on a free by a decent club he needs to prove damn quick he can still play. Bridge has 18 months left on his contract, I'm pretty...

The problem they both have is that 'Arry has already admitted in a previous statement that it was a "facking bonus". So, one is lying. If it was the start of an investment portfolio and with no proof being presented that it was a loan that had to be repaid then it's still got to be classified...

Crocky isn't going to be wanted by any club prepared to pay big wages with his injury record especially as he is now 30. Best he can hope for is a foreign equivalent of a lower PL club or a 4th striker post in a better team - neither type will pay the same money as he is on at City. To get rid...
