[Blue Mist]

No communication from the club. What does our communications director do?

Follow what the owner tells him to do.

Apart from Arsenal having won more trophies that City, and Spurs having won the same amount, i can't think of anything...

1. M*nchester Un*ted - 66 trophies
2. Liverpool - 65 trophies
3. Arsenal - 48 trophies
4. Chelsea - 31 trophies
5. Manchester City - 26 trophies
6. Tottenham Hotspur - 26 trophies

This is the kind of comment that gives City a bad name, 20, 15 even 10 years ago, City would have been nowhere near this ESL Shitshow.

and 50 years ago we would have been pride of place...

There was that time we ran out of chips in the South Stand.

Hiring Hugh Ferris was surely a moment of panic from our owners

Ditto for the Milan clubs.

You mean 7 times European Champions AC Milan and three times European Champions Inter - Get in the bin you fucking weirdo

“It was City who made us do it” will be the new deflection tactic from these shameless rats, the new “Chelsea fans caused the Heysel disaster”. They really do seem fundamentally incapable of accepting any blame or fault for anything they do

Fuck this shit anyway, get on over to the kit thread, lol.

That Perez interview on Monday night was Uttley bizarre and I'm sure a few owners saw that and thought " what the fuck is this?"

He reminded me of that Iraqi general.saying they were ready for the American's and that American should be very afraid just before the Yanks bombed the hell out of them and him. Totally deluded and nuts.

I doubt there was much, if anything, in those agreements that was legally binding. The wording of the statements is telling. The clubs weren't withdrawing from the Super League itself as it clearly hadn't got that far; they were withdrawing from the group that was developing plans for the Super League.

I agree, I doubt much if any of it is legally binding; though the fact the club’s statement uses the wording “formally enacted the procedures” makes me less confident.

Whether or not anything is legally binding, Sunday night made me take my blue specs off for a while, and from an unbiased footballing point of view, we can’t expect there to be no ramifications. Damage was done, and the reason Henry’s apology hasn’t been accepted, as enough, is that as it stands there’s nothing to deter teams from trying this again in a few years.

I just think it’d be fitting that the teams are beholden to the penalties they themselves deemed heavy enough, and that the benefactors are those that would have been the casualties had this gone ahead - the other teams in each domestic pyramid.

There are a lot of people, it would appear, that feel we did the right thing in the end, and that that’s enough. I’m not so easily placated.

AC Milan of the late 80s early 90s was the best club team ever assembled.

There were 94 yes votes before hand.

It was 108 mate when the news first came out about Chelsea. It had increased yesterday afternoon.
