Jack Grealish

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Enjoy it, it's probably the last time.

I've always got Katie Boulter :)

Hope this full disclosure thing doesn’t catch on or I’m fucked.

Best to get it off your chest, otherwise you can't possibly qualify to be a City fan ;)

 

[Keeper!]

Labeled by many of being one of the best signings of the Pep era

As long as any player performs on the pitch they can perform with whoever they want off it.

 

[qshot989]

i wish!

Must be Dogging then.

Reminds me of that scene in The Goonies when Chunk is confessing his sins!! Haha!

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

I still have the scar

Haha - brilliant.

You were actually stood about three feet away from me!

The 3-2 loss hurt enough :(

 

[ancoats]

I think you are the one more worried about the cost.

i am its far to much ? we all laughed at utd paying silly money for dirty harry

Full disclosure, I once did a story on Stevie Lomas getting married to a girl who hid her past in porn.

The groundsman lads at Maine Road had pictures up in their room and tipped me off she was in Razzle.

Felt bad about that one but it was worth £3k in the News of the World.

I’d be surprised

Didn't he sign one 6 months ago ? I mean unless there is some stupid buy out clause that could let him leave for significantly less than they want to rinse from city, why would they offer him a new deal ?

Oh and if Jack was intelligent and wanted to come to city then he'd be very unwise to sign it and risk us walking away because there would be no way I'd sign him if I were city if he did that

Playing to their supporters I would guess - look we did our best to keep him, but he wanted out

 

[eastmanc]

we did, but accountancy wise in football ,its a big profit,and really that's all you need to think about,its like buying a car for £4,300, keeping it for 5 years, realising that the cheap car you bought was better than the cost, getting great value out of it ,then selling it for £6,000.

us fans see only the headline figures, when in reality that means fuck all.

Good point.

What reports suggest his immaturity is behind him? Genuine question in case of missed something. It was literally only a year ago.

I used the word 'hopfully' i didnt state fact.However team mates,and relevant pundits,have talked about him in glowing terms and lets face it...when you're 24/25 yrs old,12 months is a very long time,and much can change in both your circumstances and approach to life - i made that very decision at a similar age.

Once again,i'm sure our club have done their homework too.

Full disclosure, I once threw a Turkish Delight bar at United fans and saw it hit someone in the face in the Kippax pen stood next to us.

United had just been knocked out in Nov 93 by Galatasaray.

I felt pretty guilty.

Does full disclosure mean Grealish is signing for Everton?

 

[metalblue]

I still have the scar

Erm….You were a united fan?

 

[skillman]

Grealish's 'alleged' drink driving and history of speeding etc is a lot worse than Kyle Walker shagging about to be fair. An unfair comparison. I'm sure Grealish is a nice and amicable person to chat to, but he's also taken some truly awful decisions that could have easily killed someone. He really, and quickly, needs to mature. Not really sure what any of us gain from playing this down just because he could be putting on a blue shirt soon.

An unfair comparison? Maybe but it also proves that there’s a comparison to be had between him being in the news for all the wrong reasons and some of our current crop being the same.

I’m not playing down what he’s done - if I was then I wouldn’t have mentioned his past antics in my post.

The point I was trying to get across was more than some fans seem to think that we only have angels in the squad and sign players who match that.

Plus to call the guy a ‘bellend’ is lazy IMO. It’s the popular opinion to have about the guy rather than an educated one.

 

[urban genie]

So have we signed legs out jackie yet?

Or is it tomorrow when he arrives back from the euros and before he has a holiday

An educated opinion of drink driving (allegedly)? I got nicked for DD when I was 20, I was only marginally over, I was a bellend.

Still @tolmie's hairdoo nicked some pick ‘n mix as a nipper so he’s just as bad as me, just never been caught

Maybe I’m wrong but the throwaway ‘bellend’ comes across as lazy.

Was that the one were the dog wanker scored late on at the far post. We were 2-0 up and blew it. That sounds familiar against that lot.

No, it was a shit throw, didn't make its target...
