How has all this come from some random person making a Facebook post? Firstly, I see so many blues on Twitter treating it as gospel just because it’s the kind of made up bollocks that we wish to be true, so therefore it must be true. And secondly, actual journalists commenting on it, as if it has any credibility. It’s honestly mad on everyone’s part.
Then if City actually ARE cleared, people will point back to this nonsense rumour and decide it’s now proven to have been true, even though it’s almost certainly a fabrication. A bit like when Eni Aluko said that City didn’t want Declan Rice and that we were only bidding because Arteta had phoned Pep and asked him to make a bid so that the Arsenal board offer what West Ham want (no really, she said this… on national radio). Then when City eventually pulled out, she doubled down and treated it as undeniable proof that she was correct. Same thing will happen here, the made up bollocks will be hailed as fact, then the person who posted it will become bigger than tolmie in the City online community, and will monetise a weekly podcast or something. It’s a mad world!
