That twat Jordan on talkshite earlier with White and Danny Murphy said all the people he talks to say we have a case to answer,coont.

That's just Daniel Levy talking dirty to him, he's on about.

Simon: "Big trouble?? Finished are they? Oh god yes!!! Tell me more, I'm yours Daniel!"

 

[hello]

The telegraph took what he said out of context.

The telegraph's journalists/editors/sub editors don't want to the paper to be bought by Sheikh Mansour.

If he buys it now, it better be to turn it in a bog roll factory and close the piece of shite down. He’s a clever bloke their be a way to make his money back.

Strange how they go after us for financial reasons yet we consistently prove we are better run and less wasteful than all the red shirted detritus that we compete with. They need to have a good look at their own finances, useless fuckers.

Barcelona, Chelsea and Arsenal posted highest losses over past decade, research shows

New research shows Barcelona, Chelsea and Arsenal lost the most money through player transfers in world football over the last decade.

www.bbc.co.uk

Manchester City - losses of 59m euros (£51m) and Bayern Munich - losses of 61m euros (£52m) - "have the best balances among the most competitive teams" the report said.

I enjoyed reading that. Other clubs lose 3, 4 or 500 million and we lose 50 (not includong academy sales in which case it'd be a 200 mill profit),...yet we have 115 charges...ah well another piece of evidence for the lawyers.

simon jordan is a ****, but he's only doing his job,
which is to attract a listening audience to the radio station he works for.

he's also possibly being financially encouraged to throw shit at us by people outwith the radio station.

he's a snide fucker who loves winding people up.
why are blues letting him wind them up?
that's what he wants.
fuck's sake, just laugh at the tosser.



in advance of the replies along the lines of...
"but fans of other clubs believe his bullshit"
and
"city should sue him, city should sue everyone,
et cetera"

why do you care what other people think?
and
our owners do things quietly, not in public.
what comes round goes round.
the long game is far more successful than the kneejerk approach.


chill out, brothers and sisters.
channel your energy into to something more positive than hating idiots.

we've come so far, don't let the fuckers get under your skin.
better to laugh at their patheticness and enjoy your days following the mighty blues.

I can imagine Lord Pannick waving it in front of the Kangaroo Court - sorry, 'Independent Panel'. It really is unbelievable how the rules have been manufactured to protect the chosen few.

 

[Champions again in 2012]

I e-mailed the club in 2003 to ask how many loyalty points I had (back in the days when we couldn't easily check online) and I'm still waiting for them to answer

Might be worth sending a follow up reminder but attach the original email ;-)

Just on the subject of City fans being easy to manipulate. I don't think the reactions some people are having is surprising at all. It would be worse if Liverpool or United fans had to put up with the same every week. It's almost like they are attempting to subject City fans to the press equivalent of Chinese Water Torture(the one with the constant drip on the forehead).

They literally write headlines to bait City fans these days:

The latest one from talkSport earlier today courtesy of Simon Jordan:

'Simon Jordan Issues Stern WARNING To Manchester City Fans Amidst 115 FFP Charges! '

I'm sure that's crossing some sort of line, with how they've directly addressed the fanbase there. It's even more blatant than usual. Perhaps part of the reason, is Simon's getting his own back, after City fans tore him to shreds, over the Stefan interview. He's petty like that.

We're the number 1 team in the World. It's of no surprised that clickbait stations/websites/papers use us for clickbait headlines.

City fans need to stop rising to it. Until the case is done, Blues should just ignore the bait.

We're the best team in the world, whatever they do or say should be like water off a ducks back. Fuck 'em.

Just on another point, both utd and liverpool fans think large sections of the media are against them. utd fans think Simon Stone from the BBC is anti-utd.

Not sure if this has been reported. It's from an Athletic article about an internal United staff zoom call. Suggests they're either confident we'll be cleared, or that Berrada is some kind of Ralph Wiggum type that was oblivious to the world around him.

"And staff on the call took the opportunity to ask Stewart about the period in Berrada’s history relating to the City charges, as well as the corruption charges against Barcelona — another of his former clubs — relating to payments made by the Catalan club to a former Spanish referee chief. Both Manchester City and Barcelona deny any wrongdoing.

Stewart assured staff that United had performed the requisite due diligence, but did not go into any great detail, other than to say United are confident in the integrity and quality of their hire."

An underrated reference.
