Plus there was no plan, NONE, for the use of the stadium post-olympics - the regeneration waffle was just a load of lies from the IOC (Coe and co should be under investigation for that), even now the script is that the promised jobs post-games are still 'in the future'. Fuck OFF!
The stadium lay empty for some years, then the wrangle over which club would get it, then the london tax payer picked up the tab for some new seating (which is still shite) and also picks up the cost of match day stewarding! Eh? how does that work? And WHU pay a token £2m pa rent. Fine, I think we still only pay peppercorn, but at least did something productive around the place, not so around London stadium, but you might find a few micro breweries to charge you £9 a pint pre-match.

From what I can remember we paid a rent depending on any number of fans over 34,000. Our average attendance at Maine Road, up to the 47,000 Etihad capacity at the time. Seeing City funded the South Stand build I wouldn't have thought it's changed. Initially I heard City were giving the council between 1 and 2 million pounds annually.

It was renegotiated years ago as a flat fee rather than a percentage over 34k.
 
There is a very good article in the Telegraph. It asks why music critics are no longer critical of boring, inane music. It mentions Beyonce and her latest release but importantly it mentions she has 15 million on line followers. You upset them at your peril.
More importantly it mentions how the biggest stars can make or break a music company like the NME, who need interviews from them etc.
In an online age, all media, not just music, follow the clicks and football journalist are no exception. They need the rags and dipper fans and they need the advertising revenue it brings.

Early favorites. That's what pisses me off with these **** stains. Pick a team and stick with your prediction. Not fucking hard. But then again change it as the season goes on so you can stay relevant. WANKERS

Yea, I remember Shearer last season telling everyone after about 8 to 10 games that nobody was getting anywhere near Chelsea. That went well.

Early favourites? I wonder whether he'll offer us the dippers' 3/1 (as opposed to the current 5/7 for us on betfair) coz, if so, I'll be lumping on that!!
Edit, poorly written above. Price is City 7/5 ON, dips 3/1 against.
If anyone on talksport (or anywhere) wants to offer me 3/1 against City, I'll take it with open arms.

" For the rest, it is a case of trying to catch City if they can - on and off the pitch."

Splashing the cash but millions in profit – how slick Man City mastered the transfer market

City have raised £232 million through sales in 2022 and have acquired a reputation as possibly Europe's best-run club off the pitch
www.telegraph.co.uk www.telegraph.co.uk

"City are masters when it comes to forward planning..."

It is little wonder that our club is one of, if not the best-run club, in Europe.

Meanwhile, out of town, CR37 returns from strike and Chief Clown Red Nose undermines their latest manager. Comedy Newton Heath Gold.

Nothing is perfect however there is so much to be grateful for in Manchester.

The Future's Bright, The Future`s Blue.
 
I had to laugh this morning at the Blah Blah C’s sports coverage…they had a reporter at Blackburn, covering how 3 ex Blackburn players were lionesses…half 7 report…Georgia Stanway, Keira Walsh and Ella Toone started their careers there…then later they had a woman on, complete with scum tracksuit extolling the virtues of Ella Toone and Alessia Russo…needless to say, not a mention of City…
