I note there os no mention of the Chairman's interview in today's Daily Mail. There was, but it looks like it's been pulled.

Just a quick one about the barcodes, why all the hate ? If it helps put another nail in the Rag/dipper coffin I say welcome on board. Those 2, plus others tried to stich up the league, if we hadn't got lucky we would have left floundering, possibly out of business because they were hovering up all the money. I would love to see a top 5 of City, Newcastle, Villa and Everton. Remember who the enemy were and remember they still are.

No hate from me, I love it......Keegan style.

As far as putting a nail in the coffin of utd etc, I think we will all take that.

In isolation though, talking about Newcastle, then I have no sympathy. They are a self righteous bunch of wankers who sleep on a myth of excellent and loyal support. This has already been proven to be a fabrication.

Throughout the years they have always given off a vibe of woe is fucking me, we deserve to be in the top 4 and winning trophies etc because we are a 'sleeping giant'. Small time version of always the victim fc.

One thing we had throughout our barren years was self respect and humility. We never had a sense of entitlement and in the end took the piss out of ourselves.

I couldn't attribute that strength to any Newcastle fan I have ever met, and I've met a few.

Strange, it's not showing for me but was earlier today.

Pedant.

I agree... Newcastle fans have had a torrid time and I for one would be happy for them to feel what we have felt and see their dreams come true. I Wish them luck

Feel like this is going to be more ‘Sulaman al Fahim’ than Sheikh Mansour, but good luck to them!

I am sick of Villa fans already and they've only been promoted a day spouting the usual bollocks about History, winning a cup nearly 40 years ago, deserve to be top 4 blah blah

I'm like a number of colleagues here, I'd love to see other clubs experience what we have in recent times. Just as long as its not Liverpool.

The moment we start taking what we have and achieve for granted, is the moment we turn into something akin to Liverpool and United.

I think it would be hilarious if it was Liverpool.

Can you imagine the mental gymnastics they'd have to do to explain why our success is all to do with dirty filthy human rights abusing arab oil money and theirs was actually all above board.

But I think after those 34 years in the wilderness it will be a long long time before City fans start taking anything for granted. We're not really here.

7 league titles, the last 38 years ago and the other 6 before the First World War of which 5 were in the 19th century.
7 FA Cup wins, the last 62 years ago, one just after the First World War and the other 5 before the First World War of which 3 were in the 19th century.

That's history all right.

Their ground and it’s infrastructure is badly in need of modernising, it matches the time they last won the League, definitely stuck in the past. Their fans can be a pain with the “have you ever won a European Cup” chant but it’s good to have them back.
