I've also been hammering home this point to my Spuds supporting family members & it seems the tide is turning.

They're no longer interested in the "City are cheats, & that's why Spuds can't prosper" narrative from the poisoned dwarf Levy. The penny's dropped & their fans are now turning their anger toward him.

They've long since had enough & now they're sweating over even getting Europa Conference League football & facing the loss of Kane, it's made them extremely pissed with the club's leadership.

How many seasons can you keep the "We'd be winning everything, if it wasn't for that pesky Manchester City" narrative going for?

They won fook all before we came along... surely their fans aren't that stupid... oh, wait!
 
I have noticed as we became nearer to winning the title the narrative of the journalist are going by now is we have are manufactured team and money source is an issue when the prem is rolling in money these days.

City playing great football leaves something cold inside. It’s pathetic at this point I feel they try and undermine our team. Barca comparison was bought up on the times Game podcast and I was just annoyed with the haters just finding something to fault us with.

The argument if we win treble the way we got to this point has to be accounted for! Since when was off field issues ever a talking point on what happened in 90mins. Disgusted these Liverpool Man U supporting journos finding a way to tarnish our win whatever way they can. Very disappointing impartial journalism is still lacking.

Didn't get past the 2nd paragraph.

"write an article about no one being bothered about city winning the league and ignore the irony of writing an article about not being bothered".

"What is irony?"

"Thanks chatgpt."

Not seen it mentioned but 5Live this morning were trying to make out that the reaction to the title win was subdued and that City fans felt it was clouded by the PL charges.

Firstly, fook right off telling me what I'm thinking or feeling.

Secondly anyone who thinks that celebration was subdued just wasn't there.

The whole report screamed Pre-Written

I don’t remember any journalists stridently reporting that if the Coolmore 99 questions weren’t satisfactorily answered (and they were, in fact, never answered at all) that Ferguson’s legacy would even be tainted, never mind ruined.

So on the one hand, we have some allegations of City as a club breaking financial rules, which essentially predate our manager’s time at the club, which relate to matters at board and shareholder level - and these fucking nonces are trying to suggest that in some way it will tarnish the results on the pitch this season, following a gap of 5-14 years from the matters alleged, of which there is not a single suggestion that Pep or the players are connected in any way to those allegations.

Yet on the other hand, not one of these spineless fucking cunts dared suggest that those 99 questions, which clearly implied Ferguson had taken backhanders (and a number of United signings around that time were highly questionable ) made by two significant shareholders in that club at the time, which still remain wholly unanswered to this day, would in any way tarnish Ferguson’s legacy, despite the much stronger nexus between him, the team he built, and the strongly implied allegations of financial impropriety.

Where were all the journalist back then giving it the Billy Big Bollocks?

Absolute fucking spineless, hypocritical nonce cunts.

I remember Ferguson banning any journalists who asked uncomfortable questions at his news conferences. Before banning them he would try to humiliate and bully them in front of the assembled press pack. The other journos would therefore take note and keep licking his ring.

Thanks for correcting that. I agree that no lawyer in this situation would blab to the press as he would be finished if he did. I think the leak could only have come from senior management at the PL blabbing to directors of LFC or MUFC who then spoke to one of their media pals. Times sport have very strong sources at LFC so my money is on them. It could also be Levy. This will all help City’s case as it did with UEFA.

It's taking time but according to my cousins, more & more Spuds fans are waking up to the bollocks they're constantly being fed.

Even if you remove City from the equation, Spuds would only be 7th & a point ahead of Brentford. They're beginning to realise it's not City who're Spud's problem, it's the club itself.

62 years since they've won the title & it's always someone else's fault why they've only succeeded in a few domestic cups in the intervening period.

They've got this "Big Club" mentality, but when I ask my family to define a "Big Club", they're stumped. Is it the size of your ground, trophies won, or the fact you once won the league in 1961?

Spuds fans are no longer having it, & reality has bitten & is setting in. They need to get rid of Levy & get someone in who's more interested in Spuds over City & FFP...

He did this with the BBC over their investigation into his bent son. As one of the founding members of the PL, ManUre were just too big & powerful for anyone outside or inside of football to fuck with.

Because City are outsiders, we had no such fear or protection around us. In fact, the PL big guns (ManUre's David Gill) did everything they could to halt our progress & throw us under the team bus to protect their domestic & European hegemony.

They're all a bunch of slimy, self-serving, hypocritical cunts! Fuck em all!

It used to be money can't buy success, them all of a sudden it was our success is bought.
The fact is we could have spent ten times as much and got the money from child slavery and no one would give a fuck if we finished 8th.

Plus after winning it last season we have sold more than we have brought in and have a huge negative spend compared to those spending 150 to 200 million ie Rags, added to us being about 13th in the net spend table from the last 5 years, so if its down to spending, where are the other 12 teams who have spent more than us over the last 5 years
