Bo hoo

Happy 12th birthday.

Tbf mate they already hate us, what your saying is what they’ve been doing for 13 years now, i suggest you develop a thick skin like the rest of us.

No. What they've been doing for the iast 13 years was based on jealousy and barely disguised racial bias. So we treated that with a pinch of salt. This will be different. Lots on here go ballistic when certain gentlemen of the press vent their spleen in our direction, but we know the motivation and most laugh it off. Now the motivation will have moral force. 95% of us voted no to the superliga. Now just roll over and shrug?
You can euphemise by saying "grow a thicker skin" but reputation matters.

Fair enough. Which is more important to them, money or trophies?

Let’s face it, there are probably easier ways of making money than buying a ‘no history’ football club ;-)

If our media had been around 80 years ago they would be saying we started WW2, caused the Holocaust and even that Germany won the war.
They could teach Rio's dad Goebells a thing or two when it came to deceiving the public.

Actually, if you look at the numbers achieved, it's money for old rope!

Over the past couple of days 'fan power' gets a lot of mentions but there wasn't much coverage of City fans.
That 95% in the poll was content from start to finish and was as good a barometer of fans' feeling than banner makers at Anfield.

What, we didn't start the war? I was under the impression, having read Delooney et al that the Alexanders invaded Poland.

Well. Delooney read about somebody called Alexander of Tunis and he thought Tunis - Arabs - blame them!! Must be their fault.
Unless they are Qataris of course.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

only 2 clubs who have benefited from the 50 + 1 model in germany

bayern and Dortmund.

id even go as far as saying Bayern has benefited the most.

they were crying when red bull got involved with Leipzig

It's absolute bollocks.

A 51 per cent stake in City is worth about £2bn.

We also have other shareholders, who gives up what?

More importantly, where the fuck do the fans get the money to give owners of the clubs their other half back?

And a free market far right Tory government is going to force this thru. Yeah right.
