[LangleyBlue1970]

Give Leicester of West Ham the title. We don't deserve it.

Haha
Who you choosing?

 

[skyblue92]

come off it! How on earth can you defend the club on this. You can blame them - it’s fucking disgraceful.

let’s destroy English football, let’s screw the fans over because it’s a business. Such bull shit

this isn’t about Neville either, put aside your dislike for United

My bad wrong choice of words there ... I understand why the club have done it would of been more in line with what I was trying to say in that little rant .

There's been a lot of statements today by people of varying importance and a lot of them full of hot air so there seems to be a bit of an air of possibly stopping this which is, IMO, massively misguided.

We will start reaching the bargaining stage soon, and The Guardian have published and article on a document they've seen that guarantees over 3x the current solidarity payments. That's about €300m per year more than the current amount - and probably split between much fewer countries.

Presumably similar concessions will be made to the Premier League, and then clubs will be faced with 1) Kicking the clubs out and probably bankrupting themselves when the TV deal drops by 75%, or 2)keep the big 6 and get some money they desperately need in the pandemic. How many clubs in the PL who are never realistically going to get in the CL would take a cheque to make it guaranteed, but maybe guarantee their own survival as well? I think quite a few will consider it - they only need 1 to stop the league kicking them out.

Right now it's easy to be completely against this because no one knows much about it. By the time the 12 clubs have gone to their meetings, and laid out the bottom line...positions will soften.

The owners of the other 14 clubs are no less greedy, no less selfish than the 6 who are breaking away, and the truth is if they were offered a place they'd all take it. Remember project breakaway last year? Half the clubs who opposed it changed their tune as soon as they hear about the actual money they'd get from it.

I'm afraid there's no stopping this train.

The 14 clubs will have no choice when uefa and the fa tell them the 6 have to be expelled.

ashamed of my club................Halifax ...Shrewsbury.....Wigan.....Luton...etc i fought our corner,not this time.That's me done City,you will not get one more penny from me......season ticket renewal? fuck off

And that's the point. When Swales reduced us to a joke, we stayed loyal. We had a great spirit and believed the good times would return.
When UEFA and the G14 tried to fuck us over, we fought the club's corner. I must have posted half a dozen times that we would prevail, and we did. Since then we have fought the club's corner under attack from lying pressmen and fans of other clubs who abused our children for wearing "cheating City shirts". We got no defence from a club that said it was non litigious, but couldn't even fight back in PR terms.
I have complained to the BBC about inaccurate reporting. I complained to the Times about that cheating ping pong player, and about Henry Winter saying erroneously that we had delayed the UEFA hearing to get the charges out of time. I did these because City is my club, not yours Khaldoon.
Time to repay our loyalty and tell the yankee carpetbaggers to fuck off.
PS I would be quite happy to play the likes of Macc, Stockport, Halifax, even York away if we remained a proper football club.

I went out for the day today. I was going to wear the 125th anniversary shirt but felt too embarrassed to. I’ve never felt that way before, even during our dark days in the late 90’s.

Yep. I tended to wear my colours more when we were dog shit

 

[Lavinda Past]

Surely before they embarked on this lunacy the clubs involved lawyers would have scrutinised every legal challenge that could be thrown their way? They'd have had to be totally insane if they haven't.

Why do you think City (and Mansour's expensively assembled UEFA defeating legal team) were invited to the top table?

This will have been planned for months. I'd be amazed if it's not watertight.

 

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

All Aboard..
