We'd be that scrutinised we'd have to count the hairs after shaving:-)
but that's not really what I was asking...


... is it not a bit hypocritical to demand all English clubs tax affairs be domiciled in the UK but it's okay to expect say, Melbourne or New York to not have their affairs domiciled in Australia, USA etc?

(I'm sure all if the CFG clubs are compliant in their respective territories but my question about hypocrisy is more to do with ethics than practice)

Such a demnd would create problems* for CFG is what I am saying.

*Probably not insurmountable problems in practice, mind. Those with money can usually afford to rewrite the rules... but it's hardly ethical to insist upon one standard in your own country whilst profiting from doing differently in another.

I do not know where the constituent clubs of CFG are domiciled but it is quite possible for a subsidiary to be registered in its own country, separately from its “foreign” parent. City indeed is UK registered while being a wholly owned subsidiary of CFG.. Do not criticise without doing your research. Start with the registration of CFG clubs……..then you may find your strictures are justified, but they may not be. I think that the Chinese club is a Chinese company, for example.

Cheapest were around £250-300 each i think. In a country where minimum wage is around £7 per day.

Thats chicken feed to what it would cost for their one trip to klanfield

Surely the Bangkok Cult OSC can prove their true Scouse credentials and just print their own tickets?

Yes mate, you are correct.
Frank Marker was a private eye.
And talking about Frank's, isn't the rather rotund chap in that photo Frank Cannon ??

I see that the BBC have sent Simon Stone to Bangkok to cover the match of the millennium.

Mahoosive.............

Yes. He was good until he got fired.

Boom, Boom !!!

Even the Daily Mail have a decent article and pictures.

Erling Haaland throws first punch to Manchester United in new rivalry

Speaking at City's player unveiling earlier today, Haaland was asked questions, including one from Twitter about the team he has his eye on the most after his £51million move.

www.dailymail.co.uk

Whilst at BBC United, Mediacity, I can confirm what has already been noted. Nothing!




I have a theory.

City have told Rag Central at Mediacity to f*ck off on the QT. So the BBC are doing the only thing left which is ignoring City bar the reports and articles when there is a signing or transfer, the latest being Sterling, below on the same page.

From the Liverpool tour article.

Note how the BBC have shoehorned the United coach picture with....large crowds for United's arrival.



After the spat with the Piss Can was sorted out, BBC Football is still sucking the Red Devils c*ck.
