Instead of the whinging fuckers in the media slating my club for running away with the league why don't they do some proper fkin journalism and ask why teams like the dippers, rags, tarquins, spuds and chelski haven't moved forward like City have and improved their squads to keep them competitive..

City have raised the bar, not by outspending every fucker and buying whoever they want but by identifying decent, quality players who were / are deemed clever enough to fit into a system that our manager wants us to adopt..

Teams like the rags and chelski tend to buy whoever's the flavour of the month and then throw them together and hope for the best..

Contrary to what the dippers want you to believe, they have spent a shit load on players but bingo has managed them in his usual style and run them into the ground, all at the same time too, absolutely no backup plan and they are now left with having to spend millions and millions to rebuild..

Unluckily for them their owners don't want to know so the dippers are left looking like one of those fireworks their fans like setting off, a big bang, colourful, a bit of excitement and then an overwhelmingly feeling of disappointment as it fades away into the blackness..

The fkin tarquins, moved to the Emirates to help them become a big cheese in World football only for them to turn to shit, buy a load of chelski's castoffs and then struggle to remain the top 10 in the league..

That tosser Wenger wrung millions out of them then fucked off without so much as a by your leave..

Now there's one bitter twat..

So to all the media cnuts who are gutted my team are currently ripping up the league, ask yourself this..

"Is it City's fault the above aforementioned clubs are trailing in our wake ?"

You all bang on about the PL being the best league in the World, damn fkin right it is..

Do you know why it's still the best league in the world you whinging fuckers ?

It's because my team has raised the fkin bar ..!


The media cnuts want to go back to the time when the rags were winning the league with 79 points..



Bunch of ****'s..!

It seems pretty clear that if it was only about City's 'limitless spending power' then Van Dyck, Jorghino and Alexis Sanchez would all be part of our current squad.

Very true, I think I saw us play them 3 times at Selhurst Park.
But WFC was going down the pan. Was a move to another location preferable to them sinking down the divisions to non-league. The EFL shat themselves rather than risk WFC going bump.

Funny that, last I saw they'd climbed out of non league. Even finished ahead of Milton Keynes a couple of seasons back.

I do have lots on a spreadsheet and am waiting for the 2020 accounts before making it more presentable.

Good stuff. I am running an online quizz on Saturday for a load of friends and family. Mainly dippers, Rags and Newcastle fans. Going to use a load of this stuff to show the fuckers up...

Agree Swiss Ramble is excellent and definitely worth checking out.

A question for you or anyone... have you ever come across data showing PL teams wages as a percentage of total PL wages? I think that would be a great way to determine competitive advantage over time. See how Utd and Chelsea wage bills from the 90s 00s compare with ours now.

I also think squad value would be interesting as well buy would have a subjective element in it with free transfers and youth players.

We could do a table of how much money clubs have spent paying off the contracts of failed managers, how much the annual interest on loan repayments is or or the amount of dividend payments taken out of the clubs by owners/shareholders.

Nah, fuck it, City have a £300 million pound bench. Take the route that requires the least amount of journalistic research!

MKD didn't try to steal Wimbledon's history. The club moved to Milton Keynes and changed names. Once established they wanted nothing to do with their former location and were happy to hand back the history.
Follow the fans and AFCW are the descendants of Wimbledon FC, but follow the players, backroom staff and place in the Football League and MKD are the true descendants. - This is not a nice thing to admit, but it happens to be true. - The EFL should have been fucked over for allowing the move and the owners should have been hammered for engineering a position where a move out of London was inevitable.

Always felt the time for the fans to protest was when the club moved to Croydon it was too late. The club was on life support at Selhurst saw City there in the FA cup when we were third level and they were premier League, 6,000 City 3,000 Wimbledon. Something had , to give delighted the phoenix club has done so well seen them at my other team Fleetwood Town many times.
