Manchester City - 115 Charges Case for Alleged Financial Breaches Begins
Ghandis Flip-Flop replied to BUJ's topic in Football
Well yes and no, Chelsea's new owners found that Abramovich had been paying people off the books as well as other financial irregularities, which is what saw Rangers effectively kicked back to the bottom of the Pyramid. And yet seemingly nothing has been done about this thus far 🤷🏻‍♂️ -
Manchester City - 115 Charges Case for Alleged Financial Breaches Begins

Tell me you know nothing about burden of proof, without telling me you know nothing about burden of proof 🤦🏻‍♂️ Do you think the higher courts in the land require less stringent evidence? -
I’m sure Pope will be well up for a mid season swap of being Newcastle No1 to joining a relegation battle

Correct but that’s also why I called people who think it’s that cut and dried are as clueless as our former lipless manager. Remember him blaming Adam Armstrong for having a shot, for us conceding away at Old Trafford. Players lose the ball on the edge of the opposition box all of the time, but it doesn’t lead to a goal if the rest of the team do their jobs. I say it again, Longstaff losing the ball 80 years from our goal wasn’t great, but there were multiple chances to avoid that goal. None of which Longstaff is directly responsible for.

Jamie Redknapp being an utter buffoon in the studio as usual, that bloke shouldn’t be asked any question other than "what’s your favourite flavour window?"

Financial Fair Play / Profit & Sustainability
Ghandis Flip-Flop replied to Mattoon's topic in Football
More than Abramovich's or even the money spent by the Moores family? Nobody gains the wealth needed to own and finance a football club without being a detestable twat -
Not really, given the lack of Schar, I think Burn was in as much for his leadership and experience as ability. Kelly hasn’t been around the group long enough to have a similar influence yet

I think UEFA would be wise to keep out of such discussions, lest they find themselves the subject of proper scrutiny themselves -
This 👆 I don’t think it was even in thunderbastard territory either. Hate to say it but would a keeper with normal sized arms have been able to stop it?

Financial Fair Play / Profit & Sustainability
Ghandis Flip-Flop replied to Mattoon's topic in Football
I hate sticking up for Man City here, but before they rocked up there were no fucking rules about how much an owner could spend. So this argument is a nonsense, Liverpool and Man Utd built their success by consistently spending more than other teams over decades. -
Or do all that and become a right wing grifter for cash, like the other criminal we had in our ranks at the same time

Had 14 years where if we had someone capable of putting the ball in the net fairly regularly, they were generally sold sharpish

It’s his job to drive clicks and engagement, that’s the reality of being a "journalist" in these post social media times. I do think he loves to take a broken glass/ less than half full view of things, but that’s his right. It’s up to us as readers to remember that though and view everything he says or writes in that context

Honestly look at the rag that Hope writes for, its entire modus operandi is to make and keep people in a perpetual state of anger. If you don’t believe anything written on the front pages of the Mail, why the fuck would you give credence to what's written on the back?

Is Antony suddenly going to gain several extra yards of pace after Eddie's coaching like? There are reason's Antony isn’t suited to this league above and beyond ETH's system
-
Surely he does that in training before a match, I don’t think you can compete in top level elite sport with the mentality of I’m only going to go 7/10?

I see what you mean but at the same time it took some comical defending from us to allow Spurs to score. They were very like Southampton with better quality, almost everything was in front of us and they relied on shots from distance. Their keeper made more proper saves than Pope unless my memory is playing tricks on me
