Why have city reserved the same billboard we used for the "welcome to Manchester" campaign for tevez?


Is there supposed to be a comma after the why, or have you got some inside info? I'm intrigued if we've actually reserved it.


no need for a comma. Someone on FB mentioned it yesterday that they had info that we've reserved it...any local cunt tell us what's on it now? if a bunch of knuckleheads are papering over it now or it's empty it might say something. Rumours of Rooney, and Ronaldo of course since they're rag legends, etc.

is it bullshit? how would i know. The person that posted it on FB is NOT Jai Three or anyone as awesome as that.

cheers

I will see if i can find anything about it on twitter ok Mike:).

Here's an unpleasant fellow but he has a point

The transfer directors at Man City have LOST THE PLOT. Balotelli + Tevez sold for €28m ... Negredo + Jovetic to be bought for €55m? #FUBAR

I think the ratio would look rather more beneficial for us if it was wages per week.

@Doomy

That and Tevez was in his final year so the asking price goes down. To my knowledge, Negredo and Jovetic both have at least 2+ yrs left on their's

When are these above deals due to be completed?

Read loads of different articles. Some claim today (looks unlikely at this time), some claim tomorrow and some claim next Monday when they both arrive for medicals.

Nutjob who never performed at a consistent level for us plus a trouble maker who went on fucking strike for 5 months and only had a year left on his contract and in total was costing about £400K/week in wages vs a 1 in 2 striker from La Liga and a guy who would be at one of the big clubs by now if it weren't for a year long injury in total costing about £150K/week.

What do you know, saved £52M in wages right there.

Sounds like Negredo tomorrow and Jovetic the end of the week or early next week.

Strootman to Roma ... not that it's an important transfer, but apparently the rags were in for him. Dailymail has run an article, 'United miss out on Strootman' ... one step closer to a rejected article?
