I see Sky are trailing yet another new documentary/90-minute propaganda hagiography about the odd lot called ‘The u****** way. Somehow doubt it will include footage of their many historical sugar daddies bankrolling the club, evicting the Munich widows, poisoning the schoolchildren of Manchester for profit or peeping under the doors of ladies’ conveniences.

Wonder if they'll mention Slur Alex speeding down the hard shoulder claiming he was desperate for a sh*t?

Us mere mortals have to put up with shitty grundies on the motorway.

No doubt they will be portrayed in the new documentary as the nice loving club when in the real world ex players have come out and condemned the actions of the club regarding the way they handled the Munich survivors and there families ............... how many decades did it take to acknowledge them ????
Not years bleeding decades

I don't watch it now for that exact reason. Our highlights package is rarely a true reflection of the game.

Me either, I no longer watch it at all these days, nor Soccer FM or anything that can have a slant put on it.

Distinction without a difference.

The Queen owns a number of racehorses and has done for decades. Are they state owned?

Monarchy washing.

Watching Soccer FM?

Good post as usual.

Keeping people employed who are paid to lie by rising to the click bait makes no sense to me.
Every lie has a double effect by getting encouraging replies from our enemies and unbelievably denial replies from blues.

Even the writers don't believe their fiction so laugh at their attempts to make a living by disguising fiction as journalism.

And that's why they block anyone on Twitter who points out their mendacity.

I wonder if the Poogba piccy in the paper this morning holding a Palestinian flag is for Uncle Joel's benefit, or doesn't he realise that the owner and his employer sits on t'other side of the fence.

Maybe it's a transfer request.

Surely it's a political statement - he'll be in trouble with uefa now! Or perhaps not

No. There were two players who have done the same and it was reported that the FArce would be taking no action - unlike the ribbon that Pep wore for Catalunya. Just another example of the double or triple standards employed by the governing body. I think Pep got fined - the least the FA should do is give him his money back.

Wasn't it UEFA that sanctioned him?

To Gaza Albion?

To Gaza Albion?

Maybe he wants to go to Arsenal but has confused the North Bank and the West Bank

There's a fine line here. The FA take no action on national flags being branded because a national flag on its own isn't political. Pep's ribbon is a political statement not a national flag.....if Catalunya gets independence then I'm sure Pep will be allowed to wave the flag all he likes (until the fuckers change the rules)

I'm sure Hamas would love a few tickets for the Thursday night final.

I'm sure they'll mention them being gifted O.T. without paying a penny towards its construction, James Gibson handing out brown envelopes to ensure that the rubble clearance and rebuilding after WW2 was paid out of public funds at a time when the austerity ridden UK was virtually bankrupt or the freebie cantilever stand they were gifted for the 1966 World Cup.

What’s your opinion on Hamas Arry Redknapp ?
“Yeh I was in for him but then once the big clubs knew about him I got blown out of the water”

You can guarantee that if the foul had been committed by Gundogan and a Brighton player rather than Jesus was denied that penalty, then it would be stinking the back pages out today. Brighton's shithouse tactics in a meaningless game and the lack of protection by officials is something we should never forgive or forget. Some decisions seem blatantly corrupt and they mainly go against those teams who don't play in red tops. It needs investigating or it will destroy the game.

Those 5 big game changing decisions all go City’s way ( I know I know) and the House of Lords is debating it today
