Partying on the streets of Bangkok tonight.

Ming The Penniless working his magic already. Can't wait to see how their star striker Howard Webb adds to their points tally this coming season.

It was a massive win for the Rags they will build from this and will be a menace in the years ahead. We must get ready to shut the fuckers down.

well they are dead giddy over on sadcafe !! Who knew that winning the Bangacock world trophy of the universe ,was so prestigious . All they needed was to win a trophy that resembles a prosthetic leg stuck in a silver basket thingy and boom! Just get Howard Webb to hand over the premier title right now ! Well he does represent their best chance of winning it not Tent Peg !

Modelled on Harry Mcguire's leg or one of the Molly Mcguire's. I cant remember which now.

Was that sarcasm? Not sure if you were optimistic for their future or taking the piss because they’re not quite the same since Ferguson gave up on the ‘United way’.

Back in the day Reid and Swales wasted an entire summer trying to sign a Dutch midfielder, Arthur Numan, from PSV for what would have been a huge fee for our budget
This was to replace Michael Hughes, our best young player at the time but who was sold to France for a pitifully low fee.
Numan clearly didn’t want to come here - so much so that he even got the players’ union involved to try and stop the club forcing him out.
We ended up with the hopeless Alfons Groenendijk instead. Numan iirc ended up as a left back at rangers where he was solid but nothing particularly special

Michael left for no fee.

He was the first player - anywhere, not just City - to move clubs under the "Bosman Ruling"

What’s sadder is how most on here are even remotely arsed about it.

Imagine being turned down by PSG.

Their club motto is "Fuck it. We have the money".

Talkshite talking a pre season friendly up as a title decider.

Are you surprised?
