That's right. He is a lawyer. That's even worse.

** Prepares for onslaught **

At least lawyers are entitled to defend the indefensible.
I'll get my coat.

Not seen Curly for years. Used to see him quite regularly at matches.

Is he a reverse glory hunter?

He was in the same hotel as me in Paphos last year, lives in Brighton now.

Nice to hear he’s still knocking about. I know he’s had his problems.

Hopefully making a good life for himself well away from some of the dicks that were always knocking about around him in Chorlton and Didsbury.

They have a real hard on for the UAE it would appear.

I wonder where their funding comes from?

Past clients include The Cult, McGeehan once tweeted boasting about it
He has made an entire business out of slagging City and pretty obvious that other bad faith actors are pulling his strings
He held a launch event for this report the other week in the city centre
Been told nobody turned up apart from a handful of united and tribute act fans, and a couple of Socialist Worker salesmen
Hasn’t landed how he hoped but he’ll continue flogging the life out of it. His pinned tweet for five years was a previous pile of shit slagging us off

Sheffield University did a very biased report a few years ago slagging off Sheikh Mansour's investment in City and the city of Manchester. I seem to recall it was riddled with errors from start to finish. The biggest mistake was to overvalue the land in Beswick and Ancoats. They forgot to mention that it had been derelict for 50 years and was polluted with deadly chemicals. I can't recall who commissioned the study but it really was a pile of shite produced by people who knew nothing about Manchester.

Probably just becoming an old git like me.

Manchester Off-Shored

What a piece of work that was. No mention of funding in it .....

It was last year
McGeehan and Delooney continually ‘log roll’ it to give a sheen of false academic rigour and credibility to their demented ravings
The fact it was riddled with errors and untruths, especially about the land values in East Manchester (which only started to increase from in many cases negative equity - due to the level of contamination- once City had funded remediation of the land)
One of the authors is a known ‘activist’ rag and tribute act enthusiast who was fairly transparently coming from a starting position of bad faith

Well done Liam Broady, must be killing the BBC to have to say nice things about a blue.
