have the rags slipped into full on hypocrite mode yet?

Their Chevrolet money is earned

And the Indian tyres
And the Lithuanian biscuits
And the Vietnamese nappies

All earned...FACT

This earned argument vanishes once City's sponsorships put us in profit - what are they going to say then?

 

[Pam]

I'm not interested in who the likes of Stoke, Villa, Hull, Rags etc sign, it will have zero impact on the top 4 positions, the rags are trying to buy their way 5th place.. ;-)

It will never work.

I'd like to raise a point. Just the one point.

The below shows the progression of record incoming transfers to British clubs but by one in particular.

2014 £59.7m - #PrayForTiaMaria

2013 £37.1m - Doesn't Mata

2002 £29.1m - Ferdinand

2001 £28.1m - Veron

1995 £7m - Andy Cole

1981 £1.5m - Bryan Robson

1962 £115,000 - Denis Law

Little old City's £32,5m statement of intent of Robinho in 2008 and Steve Daley for £1.45m in 1979 are our only two entries.

The transfer market is becoming stupid. There should be a salary and transfer cap to encourage players to stay, teams to build with what they have etc

Nonsense.
How would you like to have a salary cap and told you could not move jobs to better yourself.

Seriously, what the actual fuck are the Rags doing in the transfer market these days? Great player but £60m? This smacks of a Mata-like trolley dash.

Don't forget the Korean meat balls.

I'm starting to think you don't like them Pam. I'm not laughing too loud just yet because I can only assume they must have more decent midfield and CB signings coming this week. If not, then much laughing will ensue at their pointless vanity purchase.

I agree, tbh.

There's something hilarious about seeing them all driving around in shitty Chevrolet's :)

 

[badmash]

They don't have a real transfer policy.
Just buying players because they are available and not getting a game (Mata, Di Maria)
They haven't got a clue

I hope it continues

 

[Balti]

I posted this in the Angel di Maria thread, but i think it deserves a mention in here also...

If I'm not mistaken, that is a Ferrari air freshener in a Chevrolet.

A fucking Chevrolet....

Which, IMHO, just about sums up MUFC as a club....

It looks like they have the child locks on so he can't get out. He's definitely trying the door :)

Looks petrified, poor sod. All downhill from here. #PrayForTiaMaria

Convoy of fucking Chevrolets !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA
