Rashford article by Sly Stone on BBC United - Mediacity, Football.

The big nosed rag, ****, couldn’t help himself.

Who could afford Rashford?​

Rashford is one of United's highest earners, with a basic wage in excess of £300,000 a week. Only a small number of clubs can afford that salary and, for a variety of reasons, some of them are not in the market.

In Spain, Barcelona's financial issues are well known. Real Madrid are already struggling to find the right attacking combination from Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr and Jude Bellingham.

Atletico paid huge money to Manchester City for Julian Alvarez just before the summer transfer deadline.

Of England's top clubs, Manchester City and Liverpool seem a bit of a stretch, even with City in such poor form.

The trouble is that if you buy him then he's already got a new contract so he doesn't even have to try for three and a half years, for the money you'd spend versus the return you'd get he's a 2 out of 10 at best in the transfer market - there's far more value to be had out there.

The main annoyance about SPOTY is that they pick who you're allowed to vote for.

Yep and the 1st and 2nd this year both 'nited fans , last year winner rags women goalie, looking for votes/clicks

 

[blueste41]

They are a public broadcasting operation. They shouldn't need to look for clicks in this country.

I'm trying to find the article from around 15 years ago where it was revealed the scum has met with BBC Sport to discuss an 'arrangement' and we're publicly told to fuck off. Privately the editorial decisions seem the opposite. Do BBc Sport have a rag in charge of them like the News has a Tory?

From my experience regardless of their political leaning people are convinced the BBC is against the party they personally favour!

The only information I trust from the BBC is the weather forecast and that quite often is very inaccurate.

Michael Fish says hello..

So the real story is they’ve got a 27 year old player that no one wants with 3 1/2 years of £300k per week or £54.6m in contracted wages due which he could pick up training with the kids.

When you consider the Sancho loan they should know they don’t hold the cards.

Im not on Twatter/X. Any more from Ballugue today or has he shut up shop for a while?

Sorry but this **** needs a fucking good hiding, ugly bastard.

Yeah he will end up at Everton or Villa on a subsidised loan, then from summer a loan with obligation to buy. No one buys him and pays full wages.

 

[Barcon]

Or maybe my newest acquisition, an Edward I penny circa 1280 ish :)

You can't buy anything for a penny these days. Used to able to get 4 blackjacks and four fruit salads.

Why would anyone pay money for him? His stock is low & he’s not worth £300k per week. If another club was willing to pay him £100k per week then he’d be short by £36m over the term of his contract. Either the buying club would make that up in wages or the Rags would have to pay him up but he ain’t giving up £36m.

Like when we signed Fowler, it could be similar. He wouldn't get paid up, they just carry on paying the difference for the length of the previous contract then wages fall.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Who cares about money? We shouldnt. Its so off the scale per day even we cant fathom it as normal working people. Arguing about who is worth 200 or 300k a month. Our bosses are probably on somewhere in the £50-£100k a year bracket. Its all a joke. The goalkeeper for Swansea City is probably on £20k a month and name him if you can

I nearly choked to death on one of those when I was a nipper.

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

The BBC have shielded predatory nonces for years. Hugh Edwards, Jimmy Saville. Why is anyone surprised by there levels of hatred to City in a rag infested employer at Salford Quays?

I treat them how I treat all media outlets. Smile, laugh at them. There hatred never wins with me.

 

[cheekybids]

I would imagine whoever is representing him would say if he stays he earns £54m & it costs them that even if he doesn’t play. Surely he deserves a percentage of that to leave.

 

[Bluekiwi]

And we thought City were having a bad time. According to this Daily Mail report on the MSM website they couldn't even beat themselves.

"Ange Postecoglou has ruled two key members of his Tottenham squad out of action ................... Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero both hobbled off with concerning injuries in the 4-3 defeat against Tottenham on December 8"
