mrmojorisin75 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Why does when they were founded really matter in this context? Of course if the Qataris had created a club to use a vehicle it's a different matter but the club is 50+ years old and was founded to try and get a major team in one of the greatest cities in the world, why does everything in football have to be tied to the 1800's or whatever.

Guest HTT II Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I’m glad I can say I’ve watched him play live, although he didn’t score he was still obviously head and shoulders the best player on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Man City have Man United, Chelsea, and Liverpool bringing in the same level of players and playing at the same level year after year. Both clubs are cut from the same cloth, but they're not competing in anywhere near the same context. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're both awful clubs at current but City had traditional history that dates back over a century, that IMO means a bit more than founding a club because you're a group of rich blokes who spot a gap in the market.

Hate this bullshit as well No one would ever compete in this country then, ever. As Sky and the football money kicked in Manyoo, Liverpool, Arsenal were pretty much cemented as the best run and/or supported clubs in the country and they then consolidated themselves over time between prem money & CL money. Who has realistically challenged that group in 30 years? Blackburn temporarily - loaded (for the times) owner Chelsea - loaded owner Man City - loaded owner Spurs are an arguable recent exception but really you could lump them with the likes of us to some degree, a club that have had a shot through the way they were ran or from having a good manager but missed their chance. Leicester looking good - rich owners Everton trying/tried to break in - rich owners It's the equivalent of public schoolboy attitude - cunts that were born on 3rd base thinking they'd hit a home run looking down their nose at council estate kids doing better than them. Get fucked (not you personally), hope rich owners buy the shittest clubs in this country and turn the thing upside down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
