Talkshite Jordan giving it the usual shite about City finances this afternoon. Literally stream of consciousness garbage masquerading as intellectual arguments. "the 3 worst days in English football are Jack Walker, Abramovich and Sheikh mansour". Add to that his incredulity that we are profitable, its a real pleasure to hear balanced debate on the radio......
A couple of points:
Did Simon mention the Littewoods money that turned Liverpool from a mediocre second division side into one of the top English sides in the sixties?
For me one of the worst days in English football was the Heysel tragedy.
 
I wonder if, like a throw in, you couldn’t be offside from a kick in…

And thevBradford fire..did the slimy twat forget that as well.
 
Danny Murphy desperately trying to convince Alan Brazil that Haaland will spoil City’s superb midfield attack & passing play. Brazil having none of it - saying a Phil & KDB will find him a joy to play with.

Dippers meanwhile have signed a future megastar who will slot in perfectly:)
It's shaping up to the same old close season and the same old transfer window - our transfers are a waste of money whilst everybody else has been conducting some staggering business.

The lack of respect shown toward the club, Pep and the players is staggering.

This continual spewing of lies and racist bile from the majority of the media should be motivation enough to everyone connected with our club to just go out and continue to dominate the competition and ram their words back down their throats.

COME ON CITY!!!
 
On the subject of the Wenger 'ideas' the one regarding stopping the clock when the ball is out of play is possibly the one law change that would stop time wasting and make the the game flow like it should, however, 30 minutes each way is much to short and a full 45 minutes each way would be much too long.
When the 90 minutes was originally agreed on it took into account that within that time there would be seconds lost every time the ball was out of play and only additional time should be added for injuries. (more recently for subs and goals).
So if we look at the average amount of stoppages in a game and maybe give them an allotted reasonable average time then take them away from 90 minutes that will give the reasonable time the match (ball in play) should last.

average corners per Premier League game is 11 x 10 seconds = 110 seconds
average throw-ins per Premier League game is 45 x 5 seconds = 225 seconds
average free kicks per Premier League game is 33 x 10 seconds = 330 seconds
average goal kicks per Premier League game is 17 x 10 seconds = 170 seconds
Total seconds = 835 which equates to 13.9 minutes so lets call that 14 minutes

This means the ball will be in play for 76 minutes (38 minutes each way) even if this was 35 minutes each way it would give us 70 minutes in play which is far far more than now and will give no reason for any team to waste time.

sorry for the above but had a bit too much time on my hands tonight with the England game on the telly
