So the BBC have rediscovered football I see - National and local news reporting the mighty dippers win… funny how they ignored us last night… agenda what agenda….
Have they binned the crap skiing guy off top spot now?

I fully expect curling and some plucky losing Brits to be the main stories tomorrow....well maybe not then.
 
Of course a country mile is different! ;-) A City mile is 5 times better!! ;-)



But in all seriousness a country mile was coined after a map maker called Henry Joist in 1651 made a mistake when he calibrated his instruments when he was in Essex. The term was originally an Essex mile.

I’m going to get matron to give me my medication now. Sorry. :-) ;-)
Was his wife's name Sharon or Tracy by any chance ?
 

Despite it being a serious matter not just in UK but probably world wide, why is it like I am reading another article about City?
 
Nobody will be shocked that R4 sports news opened with Liverpool with full audio clips of some commentator spuffing as the goals went in and then moved onto the winter Olympics.

Unlike yesterday when they went as far to bring on a skiers girlfriend too talk about how shit her boyfried had performed on the slopes.
Oh and Manchester City won 5-0 and Manchester united also cemented a top 4 spot with a win over BHA.

Wankers
 
I'll save you the trouble. We're the 31st story on Mail Online's Sport page.
All of our collective complaining yesterday regarding the difficulty in finding news of City's game and result has paid off, thank goodness!

The cheeky-chappies on the Sports desk have responded by ensuring that today's 'Daily Fail' has restored football to its rightful place by having the first four stories on its interweb-thingy page all to do with Liverpool’s magnificent , 'hold the front page' performance in Milan last night. And as a bonus, story no.6 brings news of the impending arrival of none other than Kylian Mbappe to bolster the project at Liverpool, him having been in touch with local estate agents regarding bijou townhouses around Toxteth etc!

Now, perhaps everyone on 'the good ship Football' will calm down and finally be happy about the media's coverage of our national game..

Uggh I just watched that Simon Jordan rant video, it's this bit that gets me:



"With the most money spent" No, that's United Simon, keep up. It wasn't that, that annoyed me though, it was what came next.

He's clearly triggered by the "within the rules" comment and goes a brighter shade of pink, struggling to get his words out fast enough. He's literally turning scouser, he kisses their arses that much lol.

He basically tried to discredit CAS on an the basis of an unrelated matter. "Yeah this Russian guy was proved to be taking PEDs and they let him off. So yeah, everything CAS says is rubbish now". How pathetic is that, just because he got proved wrong(can't even remember what he was saying before the verdict tbh).

So he thinks UEFA's own internal CFCB know more than the CAS about the law and what accounts for proof. I thought CAS was the organisation that was actually independent and essentially a real court, that specialises in sports, not the CFCB. Someone should really phone him up and nail him for some of this. Ask him, where does he seriously think the European Supreme Court's views would have aligned more with, CAS' or UEFA's views on the case presented against City? Then laugh over him while he's trying to answer you. Like he does, to try and break peoples train of thought, the obnoxious little berk.

City breached it once but so did Liverpool in the same year, remind him of that. Wasn't City's only the case because UEFA changed the exemption from both years during that period to just applicable to 2011/12? Which made a difference of £52m or so in City's accounts.

Had City have known that before it was too late, they might have spent less that summer. Or maybe use the rule that Liverpool did. If you spend the same amount on infrastructure, that can be deducted from the losses in the same period. Except Sheikh Mansour would have actually spent the money on infrastructure and have something to show for it. Liverpool got to take £50m off their losses for a Stanley park that didn't get built... No questions asked though, no press campaign for more scrutiny.

I shouldn't let prats like Jordan wind me up but he's got everyone(except City fans) fooled that he knows what he's talking about. I'm not even an expert and I know more than him.

"Bitter man loses £millions in naive and vain football punt, angrily watches on as the big boys show him how a football club should be run"...!



Absolute ****..!
