This won't be a popular view on here but who the fuck are we to point the finger at a club when our kit manufacturers is Nike?

I'm no expert in Nike's ethics but from what I saw in my travels around Asia and what I've read/watched online, I'm certain a lot of the mcfc tat that's sold to us is probably produced in these
sweatshops.
I wonder if the 'just do it' slogan is plastered everywhere whilst they work?
Looks like they've all got City gear on.
 
Obviously it is if they're doing it as they'd never do anything underhand like that.


I've said before that I'm not convinced they have that much ready cash, despite all the commercial deals they've done. The Glazers must be shipping it out by the boat-load.

I read something by the Red Knight who follows their finances when I was looking in to where they we registered. They have a lot of money owed on players they have sold that will come in over a number of seasons but when they have bought they have paid up front. They could very well have a cash probelm if that is the case.

I also have suspicions about how solid the finances are or have been but the new TV cash will get them out of jail!

Tax officials have welcomed a ruling that prevents a group of wealthy investors from claiming more than £100m in tax relief.

The case surrounded a deal in film distribution rights, and involved investors including Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
 
I call bullshit on these Jose rumours.

Rag PR machine in overdrive since we announce pep.
 
I to call bullshit on José rumours, I know he's an arrogant **** but he would have to think hard about going up against us for the title which would be his ambition, whereas not sure Glaziers would be prepared to throw another shit load of cash at it, think there comfortable achieving top 4.
 
Not arsed one jot if they do get him now we have Pep tbh*. They are in such a shit state and he is not the man to build and expand.
They may even wang a cup or two but by christ they will still be built on sand with him there.

*That sounds terrible regarding Pellegrini is still our manager but you get my point.

Nah, it's probably true. He is available and they are desperate.

Will be funny watching him in the Europa league though.

The BBC are reporting on it. It is happening. Nothing to worry about though. You can't get better than the best!
 
Meanwhile over on Rawk 2.0

every other post on how WE are obsessed with them yet them getting Maureen is a direct response
to our appointment of pep

Those genuine Manchester based rags must be cringing at the soap opera going on over there
 
What a load of bollocks, there is no way a club like the rags would be negotiating with another manager while the current manager is in place, When Hughes was sacked and replaced with Bobbie within hours I clearly remember being told by numerous rags that it would never be allowed at their club. It just lacks class and "isn't the United way"
