Talking of banners, has anyone considered a big banner at the Etihad counting up the years the rags have gone/will go, with a trophy?

School in the morning raggy **** chops !!

It just seem that rags didn't hedge their bets properly. All or nothing as far CL is concerned. Big spending transfer window with DiMaria and now falcao clearly financed by selling Wellshite to Arsenal. No champion league next season means cut in sponsorship deals and added complication to sign decent players. They play a high stake game now. Will be interesting to see what happens if they end up 5th or worse. Perhaps the CL will change the requirements.

hey this is the last roll of the dice like a man in a casino who takes his watch off to attempt to recover the five grand he's just lost, always said if they don't make top 4 it will cripple them, it really stinks of desperation and has no guarantees, there is only united that would know the full consequences of failing to qualify but i think it would put them in deep deep shit

I just can'e see them ousting us, or Chelsea or Liverpool - so let's hope Arse get their shit together (commencing 14th September).

Fingers crossed. Spurs and Everton won't be a walkover too. As I said. Could be an expensive gamble.

Heard whispers about something shown up in Falcao's medical.. how desperate are they? Falcao's agent holds all the cards now, and can demand anything for his client in terms of wages, hope he takes em to the cleaners.

Why on earth would they be taken to the cleaners if something had shown up in the medical ?

They just would not sign him or would be looking for written assurances in the contract.

If he had come to us he would have flown through the medical.

They aren't getting special treatment, Burnley and Hull have also got extensions from the PL.
