Quite apart from being a dog whistle racist and Islamophobe, Colin Shindler is a terrible writer. Awful
Many years ago I spent several weeks in hospital with a destroyed leg that required multiple surgeries
Never let anyone ever say that the Harry Kane ‘making a back’ is harmless….
My then work colleagues delivered a package of books which included his collected works
Jesus Christ. What a dullard
His book about the Summerbees was virtually unreadable, riddled with repetition and old fartery, and boring as fuck
It was a good substitute to send me to sleep when the morphine drip ran out

Just as an aside - I keep seeing FOC being used in many threads and when I search for what it stands for I get a number of options - none of which seem relevant.

Knowing that I will be embarrassing myself with this question - can someone please tell me what it stands for

Something the Charming Man -Manuel Pellegrini- was referred to by a cockney wanker that managed the barcodes at the time. There are gifs about it that I cannot seem to find.
After that the reference became popular amongst the bluemoon FOCs

Mahrez just like Sterling hasn’t got a personality that connected with the fanbase despite the unbelievable contribution they both gave.

It has nothing to do with race, ethnicity, religion of nationality, it is just human personality.

SWP, Yaya, Bernarbia, Kompany, Fernandinho, even Adebayor all had the personality to connect with fans, I could name more.

The key moment you know a player connects with a fanbase is when a song is created and aired. All of the above had one.

I used to sing "Raheem Stirling is top of the league"

Guess he won't hear it again..

It’s a shame when someone puts virtue signalling and attention seeking over and above the club they profess to have once loved.
There are a myriad of different reasons as to why someone might stop attending matches, however his claim to not have even watched the Champions League final strikes me as being a lie to gain further attention. If anybody simply chose not to watch that match then they never really loved the club.

I don’t know anyone young or old who’s ever fell out of love with City and I suspect nobody on here genuinely has, which means this prick was never a proper blue. I even have a mate who was a season ticket holder and one eyed red who came to despise them in the 90’s and turned into a season ticket holding blue. Nobody leaves god’s own.

According to the BBC Swedish forward Anthony Elanga has been signed by Forest. I was convinced he was born and bred in Salford

I recall when we had a Bluemooners meet up in the Northern Quarter and watched England Vs Sweden. Raheem was getting a tough time in the English media. We chanted about Raheem being top of the League, every time he touched the ball, much to the surprise of most of the punters in the bar.

You are correct, my friend. He is a sinfully boring ****.

So I’m hoping that July 2023 will be remembered for American football club owners taking over the sports washing reputation.

Fenway Liverpool FC became a Saudi Arabia shell club. The Glazer rags were prosecuted as FFP cheats and the Lewis Spurs have uncertainty about their ownership. However, there’s not much of a murmur in our media.

Not men of the people like me, mate!

I reckon there is a Lord GDM slot waiting for you on TalkSPORT lol
