SWP has a point (if he's making one). He's better than some of the players who are being paid more than him.

Agreed. He's hardworking on his day, as proved in the Egypt friendly the other night.

that should be the minimum requirement

I don't think he has a point at all. Don't get me wrong, I love the little fella and he's a bloody good player. However, he's not a great player and let's face it, he's probably not going to get any better than he is now. I think he should take a moment & ask himself if any other club in the country is going to offer him 70K a week.

Totally agree.
 
Taylor's a United fan. Am sure he wrote this as an excuse to have another pop, as he likes to do on a weekly basis.


You won't see him writing about a United player's contract negotiations. Wouldn't want to upset Alex now....

I didn't read the article in full but a quick skim and it smacks of some cynical Guardianista having a go at our Shauny.

So many things wrong with that. You couldn't give it a full two minutes concentration so read it for what 15 seconds??? 15 Seconds to see some words and then come on here to waste your time and ours to have a pop at the article that you couldn't even be arsed reading?!?? What is the fucking point?

You would have been better served spening an extra minute reading the very well arguged article in the first place as it is absolutely bang on the money whether you like it or not.

And I love SWP (see - look at my username), but the Guardian sums the situation up perfectly here.
 
Wish I could get my Dad to go on national radio and demand I get paid more money, how F***ing embarrasing

And not as good as some players who are being paid less (and not just at City). That is why when a player signs a contract they sign on what they are happy to take. SWP does not have any clause saying he is to be the highest paid player or even have parity with them.

Now he is just being gready whilst most fans are far far far worse off. So he can fuck off and find another club willing to pay £70k per week if he feels he is so hard done to. And to think we all call Cole "CASHLEY" for saying £55k wasn't enough. Well, I work in finance and inflation hasn't gone up that fast so what makes make SWP so bloody special? I can't think of anything. Why are people backing him and not calling him Shaun Writes-Cheques etc etc.

Oh I know, it is called blind loyalty with a massive does of hypocracy.

And anyone saying its Ian Wright, not SWP that is causing the fuss. Ian Wright obviously had SWP's backing to go on air and bring all this out in public.

It wasn't the grammar. The pedants just hadn't seen a big "in" making the article wholely correct in its claim that Platt Lane is not in the most loved district.

But SWP is being a money grabbing git.

Could be Rusholme though.

But not Moss Side as its about 1/2 away from the boundary.

It is not Rusholme, pal. Nowhere near. Even when it approaches the top of Platt Lane and junction of Wilmslow Road, the boundary of Rusholme starts.

Moss Side pretty much finishes before Thornton Road, back of old Kippax.

This is where I grew up, Moss Side is a strange boundary in that, those who didn't want to associate with living there, wrongly called the top of Llloyd Street South (after Parkside Pub) Fallowfield.

It goes down as far down Moss Lane East and as wide across as over Princess Parkway.

Jeez; some memories in those names. I was born on Claremont Road (near the junction with Broadfield Road). As for the Rusholme/Fallowfield debate; looking at the Google map of the area below;

And Platt Lane being the blue line, logic would say that it is in Rusholme. What it's actual "official" postal address is though, I'm not sure!

I feel a when I was a lad - all this was fields thread coming on
 
Lol at the praise for the fat ginger twat Paul Scholes!

Who else other than that shower of shit would offer a 94 year a contract anyway? Especially one who looks like a pig and has no right to actually play football due to the fact he's a big fat cheating dirty prick.

Anyway, I'm off to my house in the 'unloved' area of Platt Lane, can't help but wish I was from the Maine Rd district of Manchester though or perhaps that little area near town, Haciencda. Fuck me, the guy who wrote this is as much of a nob as Ian Nob Shite Wright.
