City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

Good, then they all have to stay and help us beat Curzon Ashton. That's a relief :)

I used to work with a Curzon Ashton fan. I asked him if he knew what the word Curzon meant and he hadn't got a clue. I Googled the word and found that it hasn't really got a meaning. There is a dead aristocrat who had the surname Curzon and of course there were Curzon Cinemas, but it's a strange word to use as a prefix for a football club. Fuck me, I'm bored today.

This is great banter, it really is.

Apparently:

Curzon Ashton was formed in 1963 after the merger of two clubs, Curzon Road Methodists F.C. - with the street in question taking its designation from the First Viscount Curzon (1730-1820), whose first name, rather spookily, was Assheton! - and Ashton Amateurs F.C., who played in the Manchester Amateur Football League. The amalgamated club's name was originally Curzon Amateurs before being changed to the current name.

Must be where Assheton Ave in Droylsden got its name from as well

And therein lies the problem of the PL dictating to clubs, and shareholders and partners of clubs, what transactions they should be recording. I still don't see how that can be legal.

By all means adjust the results to fmv if you don't agree, but to force amendments to valid contracts which both parties were happy with. I still don't get it.

Because City are a more attractive proposition than the rags and can thus attract more and better paying sponsors they must be stopped from doing so, by any means, (legal or not).
Can't have little City hoovering up the best players now can we.....?

Scum.

Droylsden is an anagram of “Doyle” a former City great , but absolutely fuck all to do with the absolute shithole that it is

Not sure that’s strictly an anagram!
