***Spurs v City Official Match Thread***

[Hazy2]

What I genuinely don’t understand, without being condescending or pointing fingers, is this constant urge to give Pep a free pass. Club and fans.

There are too many surreal things happening around the club right now to ignore, and they leave me genuinely perplexed.

The squad: we’re dealing with a group full of sick notes, players shoehorned into roles that don’t suit them, their strengths left unexploited, alongside others who are simply not at the required level. This doesn’t feel like a balanced, coherent squad anymore.

The tactics: it’s the same system over and over again, with only minor tweaks. One eternal Plan A. Players look constrained, afraid to play naturally, and when that plan fails, we freeze, like a deer in the headlights. There’s no real appetite to try something radically different, even when the problems are obvious and persistent. The only right way is Pep's way.

The communication: it’s baffling. Up is down, down is up. Underperformers receive constant praise, while others get public on-field bollockings. Mixed messages everywhere, including distractions off the pitch that feel completely out of sync with what’s happening on it (see his trip).

The decisions: the club appears to accept, almost meekly, the corruption and incompetence directed its way. Anty Taylor, an openly United-leaning referee, to not say fan, repeatedly officiates derbies and directly influences outcomes. We might genuinely be the only club in the league that never even receives the courtesy of an apology. Add to that the ongoing ticketing issues, and the sense of institutional failure deepens.

Something is clearly wrong at the club right now. Not just on the pitch, but off it too. And pretending otherwise doesn’t help anyone.

We are in great hands. I for one realise Pep’s time is coming to an end. If god forbid our owners lost interest I’d be worried mate, The away support win or lose play crap have a great day. We have been privileged to have had a decade of great days. This draw at Spurs is better than some I’ve had there. However Pep’s knackered. It’s been amazing but it’s time.

Very well put Hazy, I've got to say i felt very uncomfortable after his first Gaza tirade then last week in Barcelona just magnified it.
Keep politics out of football, we have a lot of Jewish support, Sir Howard Bernstein who died last year and was instrumental in us getting the stadium was Jewish. We've had horrific terrorist incidents in Manchester with the most recent being the Synagogue in Crumpsall in October last year yet I didn't hear a word of condemnation from him about that.
Hopefully our magnificent owners have the succession plan in place, I'm sure they do.

Yep. Owners and Pep are probably ahead of the curve. He’s in the last throws IMO.

Rodri could be facing a FA charge over his comments after the Spurs game.

Glad he said nothing as there is 100% bias against us from certain cretins that officiate us.

Never seen a possible offside coverage given that was 0. 1 seconds long !

I expect that to happen and us to take it without anything.
We have been going for 24 hours without asking for an explanation from PIGMOL, an official one, not from Rodri and Pep.

Is it the corruption thats ground them fown?

Holt the cunt full paid up member of the red cartel shills


Rodri's deluded theory that referees are bent and discriminating against Man City is the dangerous fantasy of a loser. He should suck up the fact Arsenal might be better. The FA must slap him with a long ban, writes OLIVER HOLT

If Rodri gets a ban so be it. Glad he called it for what it is. Tired of us bending over for these corrupt cunts.
