They didn't bank on Pep staying as long as he has, the media thought that he'd walk away after 5 years with the political pressure that the club is under, that has gone ten fold ever since it became apparent he was going to totally destroy United and Liverpool's chances of ever gaining a real foothold on the league anytime soon, all by spending less money than them as well.He is. You should see the positive newspaper stories City get from outside of the UK.
As mentioned, it's all about money. The older you get in life you start to realise everything in this modern world is driven by money and money alone.
There's only 4 Champion's League spots. There's 5 other teams excluding City that think they deserve that place on history alone.
They've got friends in the media to deliver a concerted campaign against the club and got the Premier League to charge us with false accounting just so they can have 1 of those Champions League places back.
In fact, quite the opposite - there are whole swathes of rival football supporters and media types who previously couldn't even have pointed to the UAE on the map who are suddenly experts and extremely concerned about human rights in the region.The thing is as a concept sportswashing has never worked, nobody has ever changed their opinion based on the idea that a country spends money on sport and its ludicrous to think that it has, football really does hold itself in far higher esteem than it deserves.
which is why the concept of it is so ridiculous, people that have a problem with a country are genuinely not looking at its human rights record and going well they killed x amount of people but they did sign a 100m striker so i suppose it balances out and with the best will in the world i genuinely dont believe that the rulers of any middle eastern states or in fact any states are thinking what can i do to make an idiot journalist from the independent or a youtuber from nottingham like me more.and football fans tend to get the county or origin wrong when insulting ownership.. we' move country every insult
to know its racism you only have to look at how its referred too, our money is consistently referred to as arab money not just by rival fans but by the mainstream media, forests money is never referred to as greek money, villas money is never referred to as egyptian money and wolves is never referred to chinese money, our money doesnt spend differently to any of the other money but is referred to differently and that is quite simply racism.
well we all know that western white culture is right and all other cultures are wrong because the daily mirror and mail tell us so *rolls eyes.They come over here then they need to respect our laws. We do, it appears to be the US led teams who aren’t.
very vague one liner on sky this morning that clubs are preparing to claim damages from City - what’s that about?
If we broke the rules in such a way as to gain a competitive advantage, other clubs would have a prima-facie case that they lost prize money because we broke the contract. Such action would be heard by a tribunal according to the PL rules.very vague one liner on sky this morning that clubs are preparing to claim damages from City - what’s that about?
Yes. So Delooney as usual is talking out of his arse.Didn't the rules change after the takeover?
This prick is starting to realise the PL are going to lose, so now talks about going back to having jumpers for goal posts.
