I've missed him and glad hes back.
The huge problem he has with you is that you think there is no agenda and sneer at fans like us that believe there is one..........and there clearly is one.
From your posts it would seem you are one of the very fuckign few fans who think fans like me and OD are delusional with this idea that there is an agenda against MCFC......can you not see what we can all see ??? refs ...media....pundits....is there any need to go on ?

Your turn.

You're quite right, a poor example to choose among the countless opportunities to show their blatant rag bias and remorseless negative reporting of City. I will try to improve my selections in future.

Just watched the highlights (all four minutes of them) of this game and it looks, from that, that the Scum youngsters must have easily had about 97% of the possession. If it had been a boxing match, the referee would have stopped the fight after the first round.

On that basis, I don't know why the opposition were condescendingly described as "spirited".

Ouch. Hate that, LookNige.

Looks like I was missed by the very lad you follow around the board like a lap dog :lol:

It was about this time last year when your posting style changed for the worst and everything became dark.

Happy anniversary, you blind cunt.

Missed you too pal - big season ahead. Raring to go 8-)

Manchester City are back on Uefa’s ­financial watch list after their £220 million spending spree this summer.

City and Paris Saint-Germain were fined for breaching Uefa’s Financial Fair Play rules three years ago and the two clubs’ activity in this summer’s window is now being scrutinised again.

Pep Guardiola could take his spending to around the £300 million mark if he manages to sign £60 million rated Colombia forward Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal and bring in another centre-half.

City are also prepared to rival Real Madrid for the £161 million purchase of Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe in the event they cannot persuade Arsenal to sell Sanchez, a move that would push their spending closer to £400 million.


Alexis Sanchez has been a long-term target for Guardiola CREDIT: PA
PSG have spent only £13.5 million so far on left-back Yuri Berchiche from Real Sociedad and brought right-back Dani Alves in on a free transfer from ­Juventus. But the French club are prepared to break the world transfer record by meeting the £196 million ­release clause in Brazil forward Neymar’s contract with Barcelona.

Both City and PSG have to tread carefully because a second breach of FFP would leave them open to more ­severe punishment from Uefa, including a ban from European competition.

City, who spent more than £170 million in the transfer market last summer, recorded a £20.5 million profit on record revenues of £391.8 million for the 2015/2016 season.

Clubs can be granted special dispensation to run up bigger losses than those allowed under Uefa guidelines but that does not apply to teams punished in the past three years under FFP and another significant outlay by City before the Aug 31 transfer deadline is likely to invite deeper investigation.


This week, Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho called on Uefa to get tough and claimed FFP had “big work to do because probably there are some strategies of disguise”.

“We don’t make a distinction, all clubs are treated in the same way,” said Andrea Traverso, who heads up FFP. “PSG and Manchester City have been punished, but I can tell you Inter Milan and Roma have been restricted too.

“It’s been a long time since 2014 when the rules had just been introduced. Now, everyone knows them well. PSG are no longer under those restrictions, but that doesn’t mean they can start to do what they want.

“They must respect financial fair play regulations, just like everyone else in Europe. They must show they can have losses that do not go beyond €30 million (£26.8 million) over three years.

“I’m convinced that everything will be done within the rules. But I understand very well that some people are asking themselves questions.”


City defeated Real Madrid 4-1 in Los Angeles on Wednesday CREDIT: AFP
Guardiola had ridiculed ­reports in March that City could sign at least six players this summer and more than a dozen leave the club by saying “I am going to assure you it’s ­impossible to do that”.

But that is exactly what is materialising during a summer of huge upheaval at the Etihad Stadium that could eventually result in a turnover of up to 25 players. City have made six signings so far with goalkeeper Ederson Moraes, defenders Kyle Walker, Benjamin Mendy and Danilo and midfielders Bernardo Silva and Douglas Luiz and want to bring in at least two more.

Ten players have been sold or ­released for a combined sum of £42 million while Joe Hart has been loaned to West Ham United and the number of departures could swell to 18 if Eliaquim Mangala, Wilfried Bony, Fabian Delph, Fernando, Samir Nasri, Kelechi Iheanacho and Jason Denayer all go as expected as City push hard over the next few weeks to shed the deadwood.

France defender Mangala has turned down a move to Spartak Moscow but midfielder ­Fernando should complete a £4.5 million move to Galatasaray next week and Delph and Bony could join Stoke and Swansea ­respectively. Iheanacho is expected to move to Leicester for £25 million.

The problem with football media in the UK, it seems to me, is it is too dominated by one type of person.

Even a so-called progressive paper like The Guardian, can be full of writers that sound a lot like if Donald Trump had a slightly bigger vocabulary.

So, we get labelled again without any real source, apart from Maureen gobbing off after spending how fucking much?

These articles could be taken straight from MUTV or some other Rag based outlet.

Just shows how worried they are, the jealous cunts!
