MotD2 again showing the single point difference since August 2018, Klopp and Guardiola were both in place in August 2016. Since August 2016 City have 517 points and Liverpool have 489 so since Guardiola got the job, despite a first season that saw him have to play with Zabaleta, Clichy, Sagna, Kolarov, Fernando and Toure who weren't Pep type players at this stage of their careers, the actual points difference is 28 points.

If you look at the only stat that matters, the difference is 1 point, from August 2021 to 11 April 2022

Good to see that era of total corruption is over, just got to get this era of lesser corruption sorted.

Sorry to burst your balloon Beefers but Whatever Platini is or was, he was the one guy who fought the G14.
He succeeded in stopping the 1st incarnation of a G14 threatened Euro Superleague, but though he tried, was unable to stop the G14 designed current CL format that until recently fed the old order.
His idea for the FFP was to deal with club debt, but he was overruled by the big clubs and we ended up with what we have now.
Whjen the G14 demanded that all EuFA decisions had to be run past them for their acceptance before becoming a reality, His answer was protective of all other European clubs in his answer that UeFA represents ALL European football clubs and not just the G14 group.

Whether he was corrupt or not and how corrupt he was if guilty, we are likely to find out very soon but he was certainly no friend of the G14 and fought them all the way.

I have always held the belief that Platini had to go because he was a barrier to the ambitions of the ruling clubs to control European football. It was Platini's demise that kicked open the door to the most -powerful Euro clubs, that has seen City wrongly found guilty of failing the FFP, being victims of some of the most blatantly wrong reffing decisions and a series of investigations that led City to go to CAS to stop them.

Corrupt or not, he was the last of the football rulers in UeFA. UeFA are now ruled the money men, prioritising profit margins ahead of sporting copetition and endeavor

Watched the highlights for Chavs vs Real on CBS Sports and fuck me, Tyler almost died at every goal Chelsea had.
Expected him to shout, scream something, but you could hear the frustration.

He was buzzing when Rodrygo scored.

That cunt Jordan at it again, calling us "disgusting" because we're going to pay Haaland "a million pound a week".

He said that the only reason Haaland would choose us over Real is for this reason.

Obviously we're not great at winning trophies?

Yup, our horrible state owned regime, got to love how he dismissed their investment in Manchester region, it's all about other ulterior motives, not the love for Manchester. I didn't realise American owned clubs are all about the love, passion, history, nothing to do with profits. Barcelona and Real got their act together apparently, someone should remind him Real is offering Baps £600k a week, I believe it's pre-tax, not sure. I guess the lure of Real must have dropped his wage demands from £1.2m a week to half that!
He actually contradict himself, he claims we're always buying the best players and now we can't attract them because of the lure of Spanish clubs, so which one is it? I wish Trevor had the nous to dismantle him once for all that orange Ponce.

We need to go after him now. Can’t let him keep getting away with this whilst looking like he stinks of fags and piss.

[johnny crossan]

MUTV/BBC Sport webpage can't bring itself to mention us at all on the night of this massive game. Instead they headline only "Atletico avoid stadium closure" - we're buried in that pathetic little piece in the lower reaches of their disgusting ragbait - beyond a joke really.

We won't though, and, these cunts know it, Like it or not this defamatory narrative actually works, you get talking to other fans, they have swallowed the state owned, dirty oil money, financial doping, cheating ffp and escaping punishment nonsense.
Yep its one of the biggest gripes I have with our owners, they have failed to defend the integrity of the club against a aggressive media campaign. They should have sued early on, they would have won, and, the likes of Jordan, Harris, Delooney, Herbert, Ladyman et al would have been silenced, fucking annoying!

Agree 100% with your sentiment, these cunts need exposing and teaching a lesson.

Reality of taking the press on may be very different though. City have zero friends in the press, zero. You only have to look at what has happened to whoever the press 'en masse' decide to turn on. So for the club to lynch one of these fuckers in court it would have to be a watertight claim of defamation or whatever.
Otherwise the press would get additional exposure to spout loads of shit and drag more bullshit stuff up to put on their front pages.
At worst it could spark a co-ordinated campaign against both the club and the owners.

So it is a real double edged sword and the other edge may be even sharper and do more damage than the fairly low level sniping we have to put up with.
I would think that the club take legal advise on every single outburst against us and when it clearly crosses a line they probably make things clear behind the scenes to publishers/ owners and the money men behind these fuckers rather than go to public court.

The press and public mouthpieces have way too much power imo, allowed to spew opinion as though it matters - as though their opinion is of any fucking value at all. All the gutter hacks that go after people they dont like and abuse the fuck out them is seriously wrong imo.
Seems a fact of life though and has very few limits despite doing real tangible harm to people they pick on, all while hiding behind the 'immunity' of the press.
All i can say is i am always really surprised that we dont see any of these twats suffer strange accidents

I heard his drivel - wish TS would just tell him to fuck off .

Trevor should ask him how much he put into the local community to lift it from the slums ,like our owners did, when he was the owner of CP .

Failed football club manager cunt .

Lads, how do the BBC get paid for this shit reporting by Phil Dawkes:

"Atletico ended the fiery contest with 10 men when defender Felipe was shown a second yellow card for a dangerous follow-through on Phil Foden, having received his first for an arm that drew blood from the England international's head."

There was no booking for the follow through on Foden. This this Phil Dawkes even watch the game?
