Tony Gale - thick, jelous scumbag

[scorer]

Lets be thankful and apreciative and move on.

Thankful to who?

The sheikh and Robinho. I am thankful that I had the opportunity to see a truely world class player rip sides apart.

... now lets move on

 

[ballymunblue]

the Robinho signing put us on the world map, well worth the 10m loss.
for people who decide to count wages, does that mean chelsea lost over 40 million on shevchenko, they paid 30 plus 5mil a year for three years, did the scum lose millions on the likes of cantona? he cost 1 mil got millions in wages and bonus payments and went for nothing, its a crazy way of looking at transfer fees

I know there are a lot of Robinho haters on here and I find that to be pathetic.

Robinho was one of the most gifted players ever to wear the sky blue shirt of Manchester City and I feel proud and priviliged to have seen him play.

I accept there were questions about his attitude in the cold and away from home, for that I think we need to look elsewhere, ie what was he asked to do and was he being handled correctly?

Like it or not Robinho will hold a pivotal role in Citys history when its written. It was his arrival that was the start of this "project" and his presence that gave it the massive boost it needed and whether you like it or not we are still freewheeling on the momentum he gave us.
Lets be thankful and apreciative and move on.

Good luck Robinho... you were and still are a world class footballer!!

With all due respect, that's bollocks.

I'll always be grateful to the Sheikh for being so disgustingly rich he can afford to spunk all that money on a player who couldn't play in the premier league.

But grateful to Robinho? Why should I be grateful? I don't hate him but I'm not "grateful" he deigned to lower himself to play for us. He came for the cash and he cost us a fortune.

He's not world class either. No way. And he didn't rip anyone apart. He showed a few nice touches and got a few good goals.

Is it just me who thinks Scorer's post is tongue in cheek, a Clarkie if you will? The 'he will hold a pivotal role in City's history' is the part which made me come to that conclusion....

It really, really is. Incredible bollocks.

As is all this "he put us on the map" business.

There is no fucking map.

It may be in you opinion (which I think is bollocks)... but it is my opinion and I can assure you now, that if we had not of signed him we would not be where we are today.... just an opinion.... if thats okay with you?

You're well wide of the mark mate.

He loves him.

 

[Didsbury Dave]

if we had not of signed him we would not be where we are today....

What are you talking about?

The only season he played we spent £100 million and slid two places down the table.

Everyone has a right to an opinion, even one as bizarre as that one unfortunately.

So, it's all down to Robinho? Well, at least we have a replacment for the B of the Bang. A Robinho statue. It's what he deserves.

Thankful to who?

The owner...... for giving us the chance to see a world class stellar player in light blue...

Shame it didn't last.....

We are not clueless muppetts, unlike the clueless Muppett that did spend (or waste) over £100m.

At what point have I said it is ALL down to Robinho???

My opinion is that he was instrumental in us not failing as much as we would have done.

You said we wouldn't be where we are today if it wasn't for him.

So you're saying if it wasn't for him we'd be....I'm not sure actually. What on earth are you saying? Did he keep us in the Premiership last season? Did he stave of bakruptcy? Floods? Plagues of locusts?

Where would we be if he hadn't have signed? You tell me clever clogs.

EDIT: Apologies. Missed that. You claim we'd be lower in the league. So we'd have got beat at Spurs if we hadn't signed Robinho? Is that what you're getting at?

You see. That's why your argument is nonsense. Any momentum we are now on has bugger all to do with Robinho.

 

[citygal1]

how much do u reckon, the biggest signing ever to come to city made us in merchandise. i know he had a massive impact on shirts sales, and we got lots of media coverage due to him, all this taken into account i think the ten million we lost for him would be widely lowered.
didnt beckham to madrid make most of his transfer fee back in one season on merchandise alone?? i seem to remember.

plus robby was bought more for the fact to say "we are here" than anything else.

im glad he went i dont think the sheik will be crying that he lost a few mill.

if we had kept him for the remainder of his contract, that would have be 15 million, just to keep him in the reserves or loan him out, and pay his wages. then his transfer fee would have been lowered the longer he stayed here. until eventually he would leave for free.
22 million is alot more than i thought we would get for him to be honest.

Milan have done us a favour

GOOD RIDDANCE!

Whilst I don't rate Hughes, I think most of his buys in that first season were good.

SWP, De Jong, Kompany, Bellamy and Given are the ones I remember.

And he didn't sign Robinho. The Sheikh did.

I could easily make an argument that he cost us as many points as he won us that season, but it would be hypothetical.

He's a skillful player in the right league - a very skilful one. But he's not going down as a City legend for me- far from it. He's been a liability.<br /><br />-- Wed Sep 01, 2010 11:26 am --<br /><br />

I don't know but my guess would be he made us virtually nothing in merchandise.

Robinho played a big part to our finish in his first season, he scored alot of goals and set up alot of goals as well, however his lazyness cost us games as well.

What a Cnut. Interviewed on SSN about the transfer window. Thinks Robinho deal was bad business. Bought for £32m, sold for £22m, so according to him, 'taking a loss of £17-£18m is bad business. apart from being thick, which I suppose you can excuse from a very mediocre ex- footballer, he then goes on to have a go at the rest of City's signings. What made me laugh was that he was defending Spurs position in going for Van Der Vaart, a player who plays in a position where they are well covered, rather than sign a centre half. His rationale for this was that 'top defenders cost £17-£18m. He then goes on to criticize us for spending £17m on Kolarov. The twat then goes on to say that Stoke and Sunderland have made good signings and to cap it all, when asked if he thought Utd's lack of activity, particularly no action on signing a ball playing midfielder, was down to lack of money, he says 'they don't need a ball player, they have Scholes Carrick and, wait for it, Fletcher. He just couldn't bring himself to answer the question.

I know I shouldn't watch it etc, but you can't turn the tv on thsee days without some nobody having a dig. I wish we'd get on with it and become successful to rub these arse holes noses into the ground.

he's right it was bad business..........even my thick blue tinted glasses can't hide that fact!!

He's wrong and so are you - It was good business getting rid of that moaning b@st@rd - and good business getting the slacker off the wages list and out of the dressing room

Good riddance to him
