Still bleating about someone logging into a computer

As if it’s anywhere, at all, near parity with ruining football.

Boris reminds me of Trump fanatics when it comes to City and Sheikh Mansour.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You remind me of Eamonn Holmes when it comes to United so these things balance out in the end.

Did you get taught that at the RED666 school of analogies?

Its a tough thing because i think most fans wouldnt mind Villa or any club looking to grow and get to a point of challenging closer to the top, but where that growth is reasonable, not fast tracked with lots of "owners mates" offering upper end commercial deals to pump their revenues.

In terms of what City have done, the horse has bolted. They have fast tracked themselves to superpower status, and that cannot really be undone where their ownership remains.

How you create an environment where clubs can grow, build revenues, and compete financially is almost impossible to answer. You know that any loosening of the rules to help the middle/small clubs to grow will only be exploited by the bigger clubs and those with state back ownership and untold wealth and influence will be able to gain the most.

No, I attended Mick Hucknall's class on the subject.

United and Liverpool basically pull the strings in the PL.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

How so?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They chose Richard Masters, he was 3rd choice amongst the other clubs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
One person took the job then stood down citing the TV deal reaching its peak, Brexit and her ability to do the job and another at Discovery. The other stood down due to historic texts containing sexualharrasment.

Honestly, "the tyranny of the majority". The last time I checked, that was called democracy and I can't say I'm surprised that a club sponsored by a nation that holds no real regard for democratic rule takes this stance.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

It unbelievable that was in an actual quote, I can't stop thinking about it

So no secret interviews with United and Liverpool?

League would be in a better place if we removed the clubs that back City as well. All lowlifes really.

They can't be that secret if you're talking about them on a public forum

Just remove half the clubs in the league, it must be their fault that Spurs are in a trophy drought, no one elses.

Makes sense, you’re always holding back the tears whenever anyone criticises City.

Welcome to the City academy of maths and accounting ,

The Amazon man knocked on the door as I was typing, though I will take full responsibility for my typo.

At least you are taking responsibility for something

United and Liverpool?

Very good chance if they don't get their own way for once.

They’ll probably try and join the Super League that they never wanted to actually join.

Parrots are less repetitive than Boris. He thinks if he repeats it over and over it becomes true.

Johnson or Gibson? Hard to tell the difference.

There's plenty of money on offer just for being in the PL anyway.

Shouldn't need a threat of legal action if all that money, plus allowable losses of £105m still isn't enough and clubs still want/need a sugar daddy investment.

What it does need is a step back a head wobble.

The oil murderers will believe they hold all the power. It will take 11 clubs being owned by oil woman beaters to tip the balance.

Anyway there is a conflict beginning between the PL and those who are pumping money into it. It isn't just going to go away.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
With the increased money on offer there's the possibility of any one of 6-7 teams qualifying for the CL each season. If you focus on 2nd down the league is more competitive now than it was in the days of top 4.

The likes of Brighton, Wolves & West Ham have all recently got into Europe for the first time/first time in decades.

Pure disinformation saying competition is stifled.
