[Doctor Jimmy and Mr Jim]

Apart from referencing City as a “merkin for a dictatorship” somewhere in the middle of the article, it looks like Barney is back onside after that article from the other day.

Barney doesn't even know who won the penalty! The World According To Barney says that Riyad Mahrez won the penalty. Must be watching a different game to me. Or not watching at all. Barney is hurting. Game after game.

Politically I should like the guardian but it disappeared up it's own backside years ago. Beatnick bullshit on football.

He certainly seems to be covering all his bases. Probably hoping a book of his pretentious prose will be the perfect accompaniment to the treble if we achieve it

Mr putin might pay him to write it

Alyson Rudd has an article in todays Sunday Times headed "How Brentford & Brighton can be City's downfall".
Not "How City can pull it off" - it's pretty obvious who she wants to win - or not to win.
Always looking for any chance of us slipping up, never the potentially positive outcomes.

And..”The sheer gulf in class when Mikel Ateta’s side were defeated…was chastening for all romantics who despair at the continuing dominance of Guardiola’s team and would like more variety…it is like having a whole year of autumn - very beautiful but ultimately depressing.” From a Liverpool supporter, who presumably was content with her team dominating English football in the 80’s and being the most likely reason why she follows them now.

The minute it fucked off from Manchester and ended up God knows where!

 

[Ithryn Luin]

It's nothing but pure racism.
The Guardian portrayal of Manchester Cty by all its journalists is just racism - pure racism.
US billionaires are bad, but an Arab with some cash? Oh deary, deary me, we can't have that.
It's not just semitic Jewish business leaders the Grauniad bates - semitic Arab business leaders are in the same boat.
Arabs are there for Guardianistas to feel politically sorry for - not to come to the UK and create the best run football club there is on planet Earth.
The message is clear; "Get back in your place you ignorant Arabs."

Spot on!
