PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I grew up in Gorton and Levenshulme. Gorton was at least 80% blue, The tight streets around Cross Street were largely skilled Working Class English with only a handful of Irish (and Scots) families though they grew in number as you headed towards Gorton Monastery, West Gorton and Openshaw. Clayton was practically all red. Almost all my Levy mates were Irish decent and amongst the lads who hung around in Johnny’s Cafe were lots of match going Reds maybe 70/30 reds to blues. Religion was never a big deal but loads of Catholic priests had season tickets at Old Trafford in those days !

Arguing about religion is like arguing my fairy tale is more truthful than your fairy tale. Also, the people who fight in the name of religion are just fools who are prepared to kill over a fairy tale. Anyone want to fight Hans Christian Anderson or Enid Blyton;-)

It’s not my analysis,.. I copied it from chatbox GPT having been interested in someone else’s comments regarding the topic, I was simply sharing it for information. I was brought up in the areas you comment on here. Certainly I recall Levenshulme having a strong Irish community, but do not recall the other districts being home to large Irish populations. Are you speaking from personal recollections here ? Are you a Mancunian or is this something you have heard/read? As a former Levenshulme resident I fondly remember pubs like the Wilson pub “The Levenshulme “on Stockport road,being a strong bastion of blues.There were photos of Colin Bell around the pool table. I went to school in Gorton,… Wright Robinson, again, I have to say I do not recall a particular large Irish catholic community there,…Again, where did you get that information from ? I spent a large amount of my youth living in Burnage, I played a lot of football and had friends in Withington. Sorry mate, again I do not recall a large Irish community…Of course there were Irish residents but I’d suggest they did not predominate. Have you made up your comments above or is it from something someone told you ? I would respond by saying I have not exaggerated as you suggest, I have copied a report from the internet and and now reporting personal experience…Theres a difference I’m sure you’ll agree.

I was born in Gorton in the 40's and grew up there and never met a Catholic till I was in my teens.I know there quite a few Catholics in West Gorton but that's another District.

I always think the funny thing with people telling others that religion is a load of shite and should get in the bin and you shouldnt believe in anything are exactly the same as religious people who tell you that you should believe just from the opposing viewpoint but the ideology is the same.

My take on religion is believe what you want but whatever you believe thats for you and dont try and force it on others.

In a nutshell. Well said.
 
The tribunal stated that the takeover was the 'catalyst for the consultation process' leading up to the APTs being introduced. The tribunal even heard that an unnamed executive contacted the Premier League on behalf of his club and 10 others to request that notice be given of a vote to introduce a short-term ban on related-party transactions just five days after the takeover.

When cross-examined by Manchester City's legal team over two-and-a-half years later, this senior figure openly admitted that the Newcastle buy-out 'heightened' concerns and 'encouraged the clubs to seek action'.

Eh?

This place is a vacuum mate. I need to know about Bowie and strippers. Fuck the 115 shit, that’s boring.
 
Just to add to the Catholic/protestant thing, in moston cemetery is a memorial to fallen IRA members who manchester police killed in the early 1900s.
No idea if they were city or united fans but it is interesting.
