Neville can talk as much as he wants, do you think our owner gives a toss what he thinks? City have roughed up Uefa in the CAS, our owners ain’t going nowhere and their pain and envy at our club is a delight to see. He should be more concerned about the American owned clubs plotting to bring about the super league.

What he and Spit delivered yesterday was a precisely calculated and pre-rehearsed attempt to move the spotlight firmly onto the ex-Russian and Middle East run clubs and an attempt to damage brand and reputation. Neville used the phrases "sports washing" and "...shall we say, less than clean money " and "...City's and Chelsea's fanbase have got massive moral issues with their owners..."
Gary's social and moral re-awakening should now been keenly be followed in the light of his past endorsements.

He's a fucking Snake.

An utter twat. Like so many others he is investing and making money from the Gulf region. And so many of the hypocritical football hacks, filling their faces and taking their Goody Bags at the Russian World Cup and now on their way to Qatar. They are well paid for their propaganda role.
Spouting biased and false information on their Twitter feeds to placate their conscience. If they were proper journalists they would be reporting from the front line in Ukraine as so many courageous people are doing. Sitting in a stadium press box and preening themselves with their own importance. With a few exceptions I am disgusted by these pundits and hacks.

He was talking about Soton in the pre-game discussion.

It caught my attention because it was kind of an “insider” observation of a bit of cynicism, which is almost verboten on TV here! They NEVER question crappy refereeing and are very happy to big up the game and make it seem like it’s all squeaky clean!

After I heard it, I watched the game and he called it!!

They even mentioned it on TV when it happened! Player went down with some mystery injury right on cue!!

Ha that's great he called it The staff have the drinks out in no time and players toddle off for one knowing full well it's pre arranged!

Embarrassing and opportunistic rant by rat face. Him admitting all he wants is a return to the days of the rags, arsenal and the bin dippers dominating says it all. They have tried FFP, tried the Super League and are now having a final roll of the dice. It is pure desperation from them. "State owned" has now shifted to "state funded" as City are not owned by a state / soverign wealth fund. If they have a problem with clubs receiving money from any state, they need to hand back all monies received via TV arrangements in the middle east, CL money via Gazprom, Emirates FA Cup monies and sponsorship deals with other state owned companies.

The good news is that there is zero chance of anything happening to City and their structure. How do they intend to break up a club owned by an individual in Mansour, American and Chinese backers? They are delusional beyone belief.

No idea why people pay for Sky or BT when you can get a stream online for nothing and turn the commentary off , nobody has a commentary when you watch at the ground so why does anybody need one watching on tv ?

Because some like myself can barely switch a computer on, let alone find some dodgy stream.

When we are defending leads and go to the corners its just the same thing!

Not even close. When we do that, the ball is still in play, and it's up to the opposition to get it back, with the clock ticking down.
When the opposition go down for no apparent reason, it is purely to waste time and stop any momentum that we have from building.
