Wow, Simon Jordon has seen the light! I can’t do links but I’ll write his words from the Mail …
on FFP -
“it is clear to me now that it [FFP] is the ultimate form of protectionism. Ask yourself who are the people making these rules? When you work backwards from that, you start to work out why these rules were brought in. It’s pulling up the drawbridge and making it virtually impossible to break into the elite“.

Wtf has happened?

At some point their normal nonsense stops getting the likes and clicks, that's when they "suddenly" do an about turn to generate more teeth gnashing. It's not even subtle really.

He is just drifting with the sentiment, the G14 and their American buddies want rid of FFP, so they persecuted a few lower clubs, with the full intention of breaking it yet still blaming City for it.
Ask him what he thinks of the new G14 and their american buddies PSR, because when one goes another will come in, and it will be run by the same G14 power brokers within the FA.

Celtic were huge in the 60s and 70s with Irish ex pats, especially in North America. But the world has changed and Scottish football is nowhere nowadays.

I have 2 Scottish brother in laws (I know unlucky) living in Canada. The nostalgia and bragging of how big Celtic are is off the scale. These Worldwide supporters clubs (I can only vouch for three Canadian ones I have been in) are now frequented by a few pensioners who turn up to drink a couple of bottles of Molson or Labatts to watch the games or reruns of them winning big games in Europe long ago. Most lose interest 20 mins in.

The so called "World Wide" reach of the old firm is strictly limited to the countries these Scottish ex pats moved to. Canada, Boston, Chicago New York and LA in the US, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

beware Greeks bearing gifts
 
So perused the usual media outlets this morning and all about everything red with not a mention about us blues v Brighton tonight. Then later in the day a puff piece in the mirror about Bernardo saying he’s leaving and has already told the boss. So we definitely got a game tonight. Wankers.

And if we win tonight it’ll barely be mentioned in comparison.

If we lose, it’ll be the top headline in every sport rag.
 
I never watched Sky other than when a City game was on, but just recently I've watched more of their non- live football match content - I thought you lot were lying when you said it was like watching mufctv, it literally has utd on 80% of the time (liverpool the other 20%), I'm just glad I never subscribed.
Terrible

* Except in the case of City, they deserve to be relegated to non-league football for even being accused of violating FFP.
