Seriously ? Blues on here have said rags is poverty chanting !
Find me a new world cos this one is fucked.


Rags. rags. Fuckin' rags. (Just in case they are reading this)

Sadly this forum does have more than it's fair share of virtue signalling libtards who are permanently offended on others behalf and anyone who doesn't share their views are LITERALLY HITLER.

Can someone remind me the quotes from the scouse **** about any redevelopment we have undertaken?

Aw look, it’s gonna have fireworks and everyfink.

Also, Amorim is gold. He’d rather play his 64 year old grandad than st fish fingers.

It will benefit Greater Manchester but do very little for the poverty stricken areas in the rest of the North. The reality is this Government want to invest billions in the bloated South East with expanded airports and the Southern section of HS2. They are taking the piss

 

[dadnlad]

And they think tickets at their shiny new stadium will be affordable
They moaned and moaned about tourists from Glasgow in their end the other day

Never happy them lot

To be fair him saying that does give him a slightly worrying degree of credibility.

I'd be more comfortable if he was as deluded and arrogant as all other rag managers.

The Government aren't paying for a new stadium. I wish people would read the statements properly. They are allowing planning permission for the development, and assisting with infrastructure. Roads and Rail.

Are they doing this because they are all secret rags?

No. Scruffy Jim & the Glazers are offering up all the land, that they already own, for housing. This is a sizeable area that stretches from Salford Quays roundabout, all the way up to the Lowry bridge. This is wharf side property, and it is in high demand for development, as we have seen on the Salford Quays side with all the developments around the BBC/ITV studios. If they built homes on it, they can claim a double whammy, firstly in meeting their housing quota and secondly in providing new jobs. The Trafford side of the old docks is currently just single storey warehouses, rented out by the Glazers.

The government won't put a penny into building the homes, it will all be private investors. But Burnham and co will take the glory because they rubber stamped it.

The Stadium is the trade off, but they can also claim a win from construction jobs and then this night-time economy that scruffy Jim is banging on about. All these homes will need shops, bars and restaurants.

That's rather naive and somewhat wishful thinking on your part.

One way or another I can absolutely guarantee that tens, possibly hundreds, of millions of pounds of public money will still be required to make this whole project viable.

Hungry now.

I've just had to double check the attachment was a pic of the 'Wembley of the north' and not one of Hojlund's mush

And I am more coherent than that loon in the White House!

That’s not saying much, though, is it?

My Beagle is more coherent than the orange, racist idiot.

 

[rowarta]

they are becoming the ultimate freight "train crash" football club.

 

[Vienna_70]

Mark Goldbridge just went “pah-pah-pah-pah-pah!!” in reaction to the goal.

You’re still a shit mid-table FA Cup loving bunch of scumbuckets.

Europa League loving bunch of scumbags too. The nickname Red Devils comes from Rugby League too would you believe, not the sport they play.

And the swamp was named after Lancashire CCC's ground.

 

[freshie]

There's blue's on here who say calling them Rags is poverty chanting.
But doesn't mention Kick a Blue being sang by them.

Poverty shaming? Give over

Utd colleague claims to be an ITK and says it’s a done deal and they’ll be in a new stadium by the 28/29 season.

Couldn’t resist bursting his bubble..
Summer 2025 decision to build new stadium.
Designs of new stadium and local area drawn up. Will also have to plan, design and gain approval for a new freight terminal with rail and road links in somewhere like Wigan or more likely Leigh as that would suit Andy ‘where’s the camera?’ Burnham. All plans would have to go to public consultation and nimby protests because a freight hub is pretty ugly. That’s likely take 2 years minimum.

Then they’ll be political bickering about who’s paying for what. With that decided the construction job for the new freight link has to go out to tender and the winning bid has to come up with a schedule of works for local approval. Add on another 2 years.

Then you’ve got to build the new freight link because you can’t start working on the new stadium build until the existing hub has been moved. New roads to be built, rail tracks and signalling infrastructure, bridges etc.
New rail builds are a lengthy process and prone to extensive project overruns. But let’s be kind and say 3 years.

Then you’ve need to transition to the new freight site and clear the old one. Another year.

Finally, they’ll break ground in the new build. At least 2 years.

So in for the 35/36 season. By which point costs will have doubled from when Spurs dropped £2bn on their build. And scruffy Jim, the walking cadaver, will be well into his 80s.

Or faced with all that, maybe they’ll just tart up the Stretford End after all.

 

[jimharri]

Spurs already have one win in the bank when we play them at the Lane

Unfortunately, true. By the way; "Lane"? You need to speak to your parole officer about getting out more!

I read on the BBC that Rashford can’t join AC Milan, because Kyle is already there, and they can only sign one English player and his route to Brokelona is blocked by Eric Garcia's refusal to leave.

Former City players fucking Rashford and the rags is hilarious.

I have never seen that once in 13 years, can you share an example?

I actually like the way that the thing they've used in their architectural model to represent the "football ground" looks a hell of a lot like the rim of a toilet. Very clever, very clever indeed.

 

[dadnlad]

He’s a fucking dirty little bastard, and deserves every injury that befalls him.

Subjective not enough force Fulham player made most of it by being in the way and if you slow it down looks worse it was a great footballing block
