Hmmm, so Rodris is the most blatant handball ever..........

thinks for two seconds.

Gangly crouch playing pat a ball to score against us for stoke, then joking about it in post match interview.

taa handball prior to dippers first goal v us the other year, nearer to his hand than his fcking elbow.

Just two examples that spring immediately to mind that went against us.

and one for not handball........

spuds match winning penalty v us when Sterling chested a cross but clattenberg? gave a pen anyway, even though he couldnt see it!!!(think he may have apologised later)......thanks twat.

This whole thing is slightly reminiscent of the fallout after that 3-2 win v spuds when Mario "kicked" scott parker in the head, but escaped a red and scored the winning pen..................... and we all know how that season ended.

Thiery Henry vs the oirish

That 'Citizen's' nickname is something we could use more:

'To arms, citizens!
Form your battalions
Let’s march, let’s march
That their impure blood
Should water our fields.'

Much more stirring tune than Bluemoon and the thing about impure blood fits the Scousers and Rags to a T.

Pretty sure she was one pushing the "the cut the grass too long" excuse a few years back.

To be fair, she didn't come up with it, but on the Anfield Wrap podcast (?) she laughed and agreed with the conspiracy theorist host.

We've had a decision go our way - expect a big rule change by the middle of the week.

Man City 'lawyered up and ready to go' after legal threat - Maguire

Football Insider has been told by Kieran Maguire that Man City are "lawyered up and ready to go" after legal threat issued.

So apparently a 3rd division team in Chile has a similar badge to us and we have sent a court order for them to stop. At first i did agree with the journalist, surely we have bigger fish to fry? But City have built a global brand around that badge, not just for MCFC but specifically for City Group. There's also a big possibility that we will look toe expand into Chile at some point, the 2nd and 3rd divisions would probably be a route they would be looking into. I'm assuming we have asked this particular club to just change their designs because it's an infringement before going direct to legal measures. By the sounds of it, they have just ignored us so it's pretty fucking normal the position City are taking.

Someone once said that the best judgement on whether a headline is news is if the alternative is a better story.

"City cave in in face of Chilean minnow" would fall into that.

Yep it was that Neil Atkinson melt who introduced the nonsense but she sat there nodding her head like a Pier Head hooker when the boats are in

“Melissa Reddy” (who ?) in the independent manages to shoehorn mentions of the UAE abstaining from a UN vote, Abu Dhabi human rights problems and the dippers league cup final into her supposed match report. Phil’s absolutely huge winner is mentioned briefly almost as an afterthought.

Stupid cow.

Is that the Independent owned by Lebedev? Bought by Oligarch money?
