The PL is not the Bundesliga where the title is "ring fenced", this is the sort of thinking that has left the Red Failures desperately trying to squeeze into the EUFA Conference. Why bother being a fan of a club whose success is "ring fenced", City supporters want to challenge and compete for every trophy, we are not entitled, it means shit if we don't prove ourselves on the pitch against top opponents.

The right mentality, it bothers me some Fans want turn PL into Bundesliga. Ofcourse i want every title every season easily, but it will be sweeter against quality opponents.

I jist cannae believe that this post is genuine. St Johnstone dinnae play Manchester City (apart from a behind closed door friendly) to replace the Beijing Super Cup Final against the Rags. A Newcastle supporter in Perth?? You’re having a laugh!!
More chance of finding a Stirling Albion and Manchester City fan in Somerset.

We'd beat St Johns town, Home and Away, nae bother

Have you ever considered that people on pods suck up to journalists because they are all after a career in journalism/ social media and they won't get it by burning bridges?

Bang on.

I love this article, not because it's kind to us in any way, quite the opposite. After the initial swipe with the usual money related jibes it descends into just sheer acceptance that us buying Haaland with what we have already most likely means everyone else is fucked next season. Let's hope their fears very much materialise, starting with those 9 shithouse clubs that had the knives out for us

Haaland's Man City transfer is game changer and Liverpool will suffer

OPINION: Erling Haaland's move to Manchester City looks set to be confirmed later this week and it could totally change the Premier League landscape.

Stopped reading at the laughable reference to how well the Dippers had done to challenge us despite limited resources

 

[remember arthur mann]

He is a fucking ****.
His attempts at backtracking from the US-owned the athletic’s gaslighting bait are as predictable as they are pathetic.
Quite why the pods still have him on is bewildering.
Still waiting for him to grow the balls to write about the toxic influence of Americans on our game.
A great story begging to be written. But no, this shite instead. Written for redshirts to click on
Craven and cowardly. Hypocrisy and shithousery.
Lee you are a ****. Whatever name you go by on here, after Super Joey Hart was outed when you were pissed in the Horse and Jockey, I hope you realise what most of us think.

Hahah. Perth, Western Australia. What also makes it even funnier is I have a British Bulldog, the Newcastle fan a French Bulldog (that’s how we first met through walking the dogs) and the Chelsea fan had an Aussie Bulldog. I kid you not.

I think that Frank Swift might have been the last ‘true blue’ journalist.
Now we have ‘former blue pundits’ like the dreadful Steve McManaman, Andy Hinchcliffe and the panto clown Micah Richards. The embittered Lee Dixon. Only one who comes out with any credit is Owen Hargreaves who played 1 game for us - and has always been very fair to us.

Nedum? He’s the best of the lot, but is far too intelligent to feature in any real debate or main stream programming, barring Souness he’d make them all look like Jamie Redknapps, and his journalistic career will suffer for it. Shame really, if you take your blue specs off & listen to him he comes across as highly intellectual, knowledgeable, precise, calm and has a silky tone, his only crime was starting out a blue

I can't stand him.

Watching Pep's press conferences it's pretty clear that Pep doesn't like Stone either.

Liverpool have won one more PL than Everton in the last 30 years.

The media don't seem to understand want to admit that City have been the dominant force in English football the last decade and as such can afford to buy a player such as Haaland.

Fixed that for you

Don’t forget Nedum. Proud to show his City support but always objective, professional and tactically astute. By far and away one of the best pundits out there but gets nowhere near enough airtime/exposure. I wonder why!!!!

Ha! I don’t think sucking up to Sam Lee is getting anyone a a career in “social media”.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Stone is the biggest turd of all when it comes to biased coverage of City. He made a total fool of himself after the CAS case.

Absolute slug.

Partial to a Tag Heur watch though...

 

[Centurions]

From his perspective, there isn't any bias, he hasn't lived it as a blue. It's been around all my life, most of that being a disproportionate lack of collum inches in the papers unless they were slagging us off.

You're not wrong there my precious.

A nine goal thriller apparently!?!

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

City fan tweets at James Ducker showing him up for his part in making us look vulgar with our spending...



James Duckers reply...



The article he tried to defend his position with was written by Matt Law.

It's another doozy to be fair................

 

[Bluearmy]

City getting criticised for not being willing to meet a £150m fee for Kane, are now getting criticised for activating a £60m release clause for Haaland…. You literally can't make it up, but they do and get paid for it. Mind boggles

Must have missed the bit about super joey Hart, who was he?
