I’d love to know what the settlement was, if you wanted to engineer a nice payoff, slag off the Dippers & then when the heat gets too much you’ll get a nice wedge.

Appreciate that David Coote was certainly a silly sausage with the videos of his off-field pursuits.
But, if he had criticised a manager of say West Ham, Everton, Wolves etc, would he have received the same amount of outrage from the Media ?

If he'd said city PiGMOL would have demanded he's promoted to FIFA elite status

Bad day for football -:)

If any country shouldn’t be throwing stones it’s the Germans. The cheek of him to come out with that unchecked was absurd.

What world war has Abu Dhabi started?

Sorry going off topic.

Dear BBC User,



Thank you for contacting the BBC.



In this instance, we believe the moderator made the correct decision so we will be unable to uphold your appeal. The comment was deemed to be either off topic or derailing the conversation onto a different subject.


Derailing the subject or off topic, calling them Neanderthal Man couldn't have been more on topic if it tried, they really are just a bunch of cunts.

One of these days you'll get published and sneak past the censors guarding the gates, however questions will be asked in the house about how Auntie allowed a Bertie to soil the rag scrapbook that is the BBC sports comments section :)

Morning all.

Now just to give you the heads up it's derby day on Sunday and those pesky little terrors in the British media will be publishing all sorts of lies and waffle to make everyone hate on City even more and try to make everyone worry over nothing, be it 115,Pep, Grealish's hair blah blah blah...

Treat it as it should be treated. Laugh out loud, let them kick us when we are down because their is nothing more dangerous than a wounded lion.
Enjoy the hype (for those that read it). See you Sunday.

Morning, Sarge!
 
The perfect storm:
The UK hates winners.
The UK doesn't like Johnny Foreigner with his big ideas.
The press want to sell papers and generate clicks.

We are serial winners.
We have upset the red cartel applecart.
Positive articles about the red cartel generate more clicks.
Negative articles about the enemy of the red cartel generate more clicks.
Johnny Foreigner has changed the game invented in England.
We have been waiting for Johnny Foreigner to fail since we said his methods could never work here.
Brown men have challenged the rules designed to stop them.


Understanding that the UK press is ONLY about clicks and likes makes all the negativity against us today's chip wrapper. It is not borne of integrity; it is not driven by fair play; it is not genuine; it is deliberately antagonistic because that generates revenue. At its heart is profit - nothing else.

Start saving them all, compile it all into a book, publish it, sell it, make money, expose the paedo protectors at the Beeb (again), and finally have all your HYS comments in the public domain.


I'd buy it anyway.
