His pal Neville had the balls to say Arsenal's performance and victory today will cause City's players to have a "sinking feeling". Is this fucking guy for real? A sinking feeling? I'd bet a large majority of our guys didn't even bother to watch the match. Just can't help himself, the fucking transparent little fuckface twat...

Less of the little!
 
Watching the Brighton v Everton game on BEIN sports and the commentator remarked after evertons third goal that this will be great news for Arsenal as man city play them next. Now I know the media hate us but fucking hell why couldn’t he say that all this good work by Everton could be undone by us?

Another year, likely another City title, and all the media's team of the year choices lack a simple majority of City players in each of them. Somehow, our club is winning 4 or 5 out of 6 titles without having the best players. Credit to Pep for doing miracles with such mediocrity.

Scouse loving rat moron Dominic King melts down completely today in the mail with the headline “Watch Nunez score 30 goals next season”

In the article he suggests his shortcomings are due to him being “a young foal”.

He’s a year older than Erling.

And £34m more expensive

Not the most lucid read, and why even bother citing "We'll cheat when we want"? It barely gets an outing compared to the self-deprecatory stuff like "We never win at home...". Still, it's better than the usual "professional journalist" nonsense.

As I am now living in Western Australia I have been listening to various podcasts as a poor substitute for football banter. At the risk of raising a lot heckles on here, I also read the Guardian, it's free on-line and keeps me up to date with the UK news. For weeks now on the podcast the Irish pseud Glendenning has interrupted every report on City's games with "can we talk about the elephant in the room" i.e. City's ownership followed by the usual City bingo of what is wrong with them, all of it factually incorrect. This is usually followed by Ronay and Wilson trotting out the same old tired cliches and again all factually wrong. We've all heard the stuff before, oil money, state owned, financial irregularities, big squad etc. etc.
This coupled with the slew of articles penned by the Oxford educated Ronay, Wilson and Liew (Edinburgh) articles also constantly referring to City's ownership I had vowed to myself to not listen to the podcast anymore. Then this article was published so, I thought it would be interesting to hear if the usual rubbish was repeated on the podcast. There was not a mention of the owners, the accusations or oil money. There was some sadness that Leeds didn't equalise but generally an ok review.

It seems clear to me that this article is a result of something going on behind the scenes possibly, by City. The very clear description of City's ownership model and the difference between it and Qatar/Saudi ownership seems too concise and detailed to be a random journalist's musing. If that is the case, it's long overdue.

I think it’s more likely that, behind the scenes, the club has told certain media organisations of the strength of their case (or rather the weakness of the PL’s) and that any egregious reporting prior to the outcome will not be retrospectively met with the club’s habitual supine response. Only logical explanation for Simon Jordan‘s bizarre volte-face.
