We are getting a very easy ride in the media. Our much loved neighbours, however, are getting a good kicking. Happy for the club to step back and get the popcorn out.

Weird fucker she is.Dipper Melissa Reddy counting the number of words in each club statement, and proudly putting the Dippers in first place and Man City last, and promoting it as some kind of victory.

They've done a lot of things right but let's not try and claim this club under the current ownership has never put a foot wrong before this with regards to the way the fans have been treated. From fans being booted out of the North Stand at just a few weeks notice back in 2010 to make way for a family stand, to fans being booted out of seats they've held for years to make way for some poncey Tunnel Club, to fans now being booted out of their seats to make way for fancy new LED advertising, to season ticket price increases in 10 out of the last 11 seasons, to introducing a tiered system that involved effectively buying loyalty points by virtue of paying extra for Platinum. Oh, and don't get me started on fans being banned from the stadium by that twat McGrath based on evidence that is flimsy at best and non-existent at worst with no right to appeal, so they've actually got plenty of things wrong. Now I'm sure that none of those were signed off by Mansour himself or perhaps even Khaldoon, but they've all happened on their watch.He is though.
The difference between our owner and that wanker is ours isn’t a money grabbing twat, he’s done so much good, not just for the club but for Manchester.
This was the first real major mistake he’d made since the takeover and that’s why we’re not trying to drive him out of the club.
Everyone makes mistakes, some can be unforgivable.
But for me up until a few days ago the club was perfectly run and fans were always respected.
Unlike Henry, Glazers and Kroenke etc.. who only care about money.

been out most of the day so missed a large chunk of this thread - just curious if any of the other 'big six' :( have received the same honey words from Cerefin?
Indeed.Spot-on. SKY have been running this fake story for 48 hours. The rule is clear. They can't retrospectively deduct points. We are still in the PL and never joined the ESL. Even if we had it would only apply to next season not 20/21.
Now my legal training was income tax specific but going back to the press release the wording was the clubs had signed letters of intent to join the ESL.
So even if you are taken by the arguments Sky are trying to peddle is it the same to say you intend to join as joining itself?
I understand people want an apology but I hope we don't. The apologies by the other clubs are ridiculous because they can't justify what happened so it just turns into a cringe fest. Do any of you believe what they are saying? It's insulting. If City stay silent it is fine with me because there's nothing really they can say. At the end of the day they made a decision for whatever reason and then reversed it as we all wanted. We will never know what happened and they will never tell us so what are we going to get from some orchestrated clip from the powers that be. I would rather leave it as it is and hope we can start to build bridges between the owners and the fans again.

Are they still top if you add the points won in the league to the number of words in those statements?Dipper Melissa Reddy counting the number of words in each club statement, and proudly putting the Dippers in first place and Man City last, and promoting it as some kind of victory.
