According to the caf, hundred to hundred and fifty million for Ratty to Saudi and and fifty million each for Garnacho and Mainoo, minimum two hundred million transfer kitty right there….problem solved.

Even if they did. £200m will only get you 3 top players, so they’ll still have the 8 other shit fuckers playing and will be no better off.

They’re utterly fucked and clueless.

 

[Resurrection Joe...]

Im gonna assume the Og Monster was taking the pic?

 

[Whether or not]

That just made me laugh. I thought City were the " Comedy Club" the only team to be beat by a team that didn't have a shot on target. I think it was against Bolton? I suppose we will have to make do with all the other records.

It was against Boro, pretty sure the own goal was Sun Jihai, thoroughly depressing thinking about it even now.

No contest......






L***s, all the way.


;-)




What about both?

I could deal with that.

Do you really believe the bbc 'gossip'?

It’s not the BBC’s gossip.

It’s the BBC’s round-up of gossip in the sports media

I've just read their prize money for runners up last night is £5m...
They owe Chelsea £3.5m for Sancho by 30th June
*lights cigar*

Surely Mount, not Sancho?

It could turn out to be a major tipping point, meaning years of seasons like this one where they finish in the bottom half of the table, and where European football is just a memory.

At worst, they could face a relegation battle amid severe financial constraints. A big test will come in the next couple of years where they have to refinance £575m debt. The interest they pay will increase significantly and if I was a potential lender I'd be looking to protect myself by insisting on repayment of capital as well.

Keep going ffs, I'm almost there.... ;)

Sunday will be used as a protest to get the glazers out again,it’s all their fault they signed the players they brought the managers in,the whaling and crying as the fans think they have a devine right to be challenging regardless,and it’s carried on by ex-players and pundits with the this is Manchester utd we are talking about..

That sums up the scummy twats. Slaughtering those beautiful giants of the ocean in this day and age. SCUM!

This was what I was remembering ... a 1-1 draw, West Brom 0 shots on target.

Dunne howler costs City

Richard Dunnes calamitous own goal gave West Brom an unlikely point.

This is the game I was thinking about.

BBC SPORT | Football | Premiership | Man City 0-1 Bolton

And yet they want a 2 billion quid stadium :)

They won't be paying for it, if they have to fund it then it ain't happening.

 

[mind your car Mr?]

Recruit better. LMAO. Sure, all the top talent will be forming an orderly queue pleading to be signed.

fuck me, that's like an echo headline after a dipper defeat

And of course the players aren't tangible assets. The swamp land is.

I'm alright thanks. I liked reading the comments about the game yesterday. I didn’t think Spurs would turn up. How are you?

I’m well. Still working my way through this thread. It’s so hilarious, I don’t want to miss any of it.

Yesterday was a good day for me personally and football as a whole.

 

[citizen_maine]

I can’t see the league allowing them to get into a relegation battle they’ll be assisted to avoid sanctions,remember Scudamore saying or words to that effect a good Manchester utd is important for the league..

So he'd let the current one go then

 

[oldhamblue]

Yesterday driving round Saddleworth and Mossley I seen loads of rag shirts. Lost count of the number of times I had to shout wanker out of the window. Not a single one today. Back in the bottom of the wardrobe you fucking mardarses

A mate of mine who runs a hotel and bar in the city centre has messaged today to say how gutted he is, not because he is a United fan, but because a full year of United having no midweek Euro games, and only playing at home every 2 weeks, means that they probably won't make enough money to keep their businesses going, as a large percentage of their regular clientele is from football tourism. Loads of Scandinavian folk who come over on a regular basis. There is a whole industry that survives off the back of football tourism. Pubs, bars, restaurants, hotels, travel companies, taxi drivers, retail etc... This would impact the co op arena as well, as people will book a gig one night and a game the night after.

When you have relied on something for 35 years, and then it is suddenly gone. I bet many businesses are crossing everything that City stay in the CL.

Are those "Two tier Keir's" Ukrainian buddies?
