Lol the working classes have always in the main tried to dress sharp, from teds to mods and casuals, it’s the toffs and their middle class tribute acts who think it’s a statement to cut about looking like you’ve been chained to a radiator in Beirut for a year.Fucking hell, if a bloke from Lingsight is caking then scruffy! No offence
At a big boxing night once, I sat their pissing myself as two journos turned up in almost identical tweed jackets. Then spent the next three hours arguing over whose was more expensive, eventually had to be separated after almost coming to blows

Listen mate I’ve been out in Longsight and even I felt well dressedLol the working classes have always in the main tried to dress sharp, from teds to mods and casuals, it’s the toffs and their middle class tribute acts who think it’s a statement to cut about looking like you’ve been chained to a radiator in Beirut for a year.

I would like to see the rumoured merger of Etihad and Emirates.
1. It would mightily piss of the Arse, who would be dropped.
2. Since no journo has criticised Arse for that sponsorship, it would be very funny watching them twist in the wind as they tried to explain why our new sponsorship was different.
I said the other week that Arsenal aren’t the brightest as they’re the one club we could really damage for getting involved in sending THAT letter to CAS. If City wanted to be proper c*nts about it, our owner only has to make one phone call and Emirates pull the plug on their long-standing sponsorship deal with Arsenal. Of course, I think there are still several years to run on the present Emirates deal but I’d guess there are conditions in the contract and perhaps they could legitimately cancel it on the grounds that Arsenal tried to fuck us over.

Wasn’t Howard also the actor Leslie Howard’s son or grandson?
James Lawton was a kind old soul with a soft spot for City
Was that 70s City?
I thought the last years at the Indie he was so pro-Utd and not in favour of City it was laughable. Seemed to be quite well respected in the industry though.

I doubt CFCB would claim that, although it seems that UEFA were trying to do so in 2014. If CFCB were to claim that Etihad, Etisalat and City were related parties then their whole argument about disguised owner investment falls flat on his face. CFCB's interest would be in showing they weren't. But it's irrelevant as their was no owner funding of these sponsorships.
They paid a load of money for lawyers, who lost the case, when they could have come to me and I'd have put them right.
Yep. All they had to do was read the Open Skies document and it was all in there. Fucking idiots.

He wrote an award winning book about the Mercer era shortly before his death but I’d expect that as the industry changed he knew which way the wind was blowingWas that 70s City?
