Media Thread - 2021/22

Unsure, but the backlash has already began:

I'd better get back to supporting Chelsea then. Oh wait ......

This is turning into the diplomatic equivalent of the match thread. Flappety flap.

Not a good look I have to admit

but Chris Byrant has been completely off the reservation last few weeks.

Suggesting all sorts of illegal and worrying things.

Back to basics. Did anybody watch football focus and the Jack Grealish interview? Anyway first thing that was mentioned was is £100 million transfer and if that was weighing on his mind. What other footballer has been linked to his transfer fee whilst being interviewed? Now I know it’s a British and club record but Lukaku was £98 million and I bet if he was being interviewed it wouldn’t get a mention. Hate BBC sport.

Not watched Football Focus since about 1987!

Powder puff piece purely for clicks.

What harm has sheikh Mansour done? Absolutely none, unless he's said to putins mate here's 100bn, go and give it to the Russian bellend to buy as many tanks and bombs as he can and tell him to keep the change.

There is a new documentary airing on sky on Monday all to do with owners of Premier league clubs, cuntface neville kind of plugged it shrieking about us on Monday before the Palace match, this fatheaded prick Rumsby is probably a mate of ratboy and plugging it too.

So if Boris is pictured with Putin does that make him guilty by association?

This telegraph hatchet job is implying the sheikh has a hand in terrorism and war crimes doesn't it? Yet again casual racism and a piece produced without doing any homework.

Be interesting to see how long it stays up for.

I find myself less bothered about these baseless accusations each time the media turn on our owner. How the sheikh conducts himself rightly or wrongly does not represent the views of MCFC or it’s fans. Nothing more than a media witch hunt to get rid of competition. The moral outrage is fake.

I don’t care who Mansour meets. The politics in the Middle East is complicated and inevitably leads to bloodshed. I don’t think the western media should hold a moral high ground.

It’s all very old and outdated the Muslim bashing line. We have tried to impose our view on the world and it’s led to disaster each time.

Football ownership is a hot topic and it gives our enemies a chance to try and influence our thinking. Well they can shove their pens up their byline.

Football has nothing to do with bullshit politics. We would be all better off if they all fucked off.

Always prefered Saint and Greavsie back in the day

Did Neville mention the pair of Easter Island statues Rashford and Magliar jetting off to Dubai in January for a break in the sun?
As Neville seems to have property out there he might well have gone at the same time or at least discussed their trip on return.
Neville is a bigger lying hypocrite than most politicians.

 

[Blue Mist]

Unsure, but the backlash has already began:

And the Labour MP Chris Bryant has questioned whether Mansour is a fit and proper person to run City going on to say 'it would be good to see the back of him'.
They don't mind when we go with the begging bowl to Saudi, the country that murders and then dismembers journalist bodies, because we need oil. B But we can't have one Middle east country meeting another, especially if we don't know the reason, no can't have that can we.

I think it would be good to see the back of Bryant, and a good few more from both sides of the House. Anyway, I didn't know the Good Sheikh ran the club - always thought we were owned by a state.
