Bye bye gabby.
Get them shirts on the market.


Weird how they’ve kept us hanging for so long. I’d have got Haaland 9 on the back of the little ones shirt the other week, but went with her name because we didn’t know what number he was.


They’re still selling Jesus 9 shirts on the official club shop page.. Not sure what the hold up is.


Is Jesus offical yet? Probably waiting for that.


In the meantime people can’t get their kids a shirt with Haaland printed on. Why wait for someone clearly leaving!

NB Nigel's Tackle that Haalands goal/shot percentage is 36%. That means he's only going to make one in three. It will probably drop playing in the prem with better defenders.

Translate that into number of goals scored and lets revisit in May?

Back in 2020 -

Erling Haaland's double for Borussia Dortmund against Club Brugge in the Champions League means he has now scored 70 goals from 91 shots on target in his professional career

Hopefully he can get back near that with City. Last season he had 37 shots on target and scored 22.

Just read that Marca have stated Haaland has a couple of release clauses that become active in two season.

First one is a €200m buy out fee which then reduces to €175m the summer after. These are only activated if he reaches personal and club targets that have been set. Otherwise there’s no buyout.

I can see that being the club target tbh. And if we do win it and he decides to go and we get €200m I’ll be happy!

Can see that being a target, too. However, if he proves to be the difference, then I'd rather he stayed and made us multiple winners than helping a rival beat us, just to turn a profit.

Even more important than any release clause. My son is pestering me to get him a Haaland shirt. I wish they would crack on to fuck and confirm he's no 9.

I've got a number 9 shirt he could have. I bought it , or had it custom made in the City fan shop in Market street after we beat the rags 6-1 at old toilet.

Perhaps he can live with the name of the oligarch i had printed on the back ? or try and remove it ? name is "SHUDAVBIN".
