Should be leading the campaign for contraception. Could you imagine all those homes in Asia with his face glued to the wall in the bedroom.

I remember Munich happening, the reaction around Manchester and my dad also a big Blue taking me to the first match after the Disaster. Men were openly crying.

I also remember the very poor way the rags treated the families of the deceased and the survivors. Even people like Billy Foulkes had to sell all his medals to make ends meet in later life.

I also remember the press warning for months that the 2008 derby which conveniently got scheduled in early February 'was going to be sabotaged' by City fans.

I also remember the 'charity match' eventually where the 'World's Biggest Club' got to the fans to pay to help the families. Stewards, gatemen, and others gladly worked for no wages whilst Cantona got paid £60k in what was pushed in the press a 'Cantona's Comeback'. Other wealthy players and ex players also took generous expenses out of the takings.

What I do NOT remember is much commemoration of the event in the 60s, 70s, and 80s but it started becoming a big and profitable PR event in recent years, especially post Princess Diana.

Over the years I have seen the cynical way the club has cynically used a tragic accident for financial and PR gain whilst playing down their own poor treatment of those involved, so it is little wonder that somebody from Blackburn born over 30 years after the event seeks to promote his own brand out of something that hit all Mancunians hard at the time.

What a tacky disgusting club they are.

Spent 300m and are 6 pts behind us who are treading water at the minute.
That's how far we've come and how far they've sank.
Martial is a good player but not worth the fee paid for him.
Monaco have had your pants down there pal.

MY pants ????
 
Christ, Phil Jones has 2.1m followers on Twatter. He has his own PJ4 branding? What the fuck is the world coming to. Tell you what, it does show you how big the Rags are, if a fucking buffoon like Jones can have 2.1m people viewing what he does every day.

Hahahaha it's a fucked up world isn't it when nobodies like Phil Jones have 2.1m followers.
I'm literally laughing right now.
But this is how money works, he's probably spent ££££££ on obtaining these followers. he'll have a Social Media Experts company beasting his Twitter account all day.

Absolutely fucking vile the fact (probably his PR team) have used such a tragedy to promote his brand that's flogged on trainers being produced in sweatshops.
I'd say the same thing if a City player did something similar as well... it's disgusting and not a peep is visible on ragcaf'
 
PJ4. Phil Jones ... the brand. You will struggle to find a finer example of delusional grandeur. Just lol.

I used to have a T-shirt, which read, "YOU CAN'T BE UGLY AND STUPID. YOU HAVE TO PICK ONE".

The new Stan Laurel has just proved that T-shirt was wrong.

yes thats right Rahaam Sterling, the only Sterling in our squad, i didn't say the price tag was his fault just that for the price of both them i think Martial is the better player and so they got the better deal

A closer look at Martial stats will also tell you he hasn't made an assist or scored a goal against any decent side, brilliant player....
