Keegans Export Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 He was the same with our takeover, wouldn't give any specifics about anything. I just assume he's such an idiot he doesn't trust himself not to say something he shouldn't so he just says nothing at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the "big six" are against it, we only need one abstention/vote against and it gets shot down. Quote The proposal has received heavy criticism from the ‘Big Six’ who argue that the rules would harm English football’s presence in European football. A vote will take place for anchoring regulations on Monday (29 April) where a majority of 14 votes will be needed for the proposal to pass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Current Profit and Sustainability Rules are set to be scrapped in the 2025-26 season with new regulations permitting clubs to spend up to 85 per cent of their overall revenue on player wages and transfer fees. However, concerns have been raised that such rules would allow the established elite to dominate and stop other clubs from competing at the top of the table. Therefore, new “anchoring” rules have been proposed which would cap spending to a multiple of the lowest earnings in the division. Kieran Maguire must think the same judging by his comments about us and Villa. It's not how I've interpreted it but there doesn't seem to be a clear answer.

I for one can’t wait! I've noticed Jordan has been very aggressive with his opinion of City being guilty. The way he voices his opinion with a sniggering laugh to those that dare have a different opinion to him is really fucking annoying. He does sometimes make some very good points about various subjects but the way he comes across is an absolute wanker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Just now, Mase said: okay mate, if you say so It’s not ‘if I say so’. It’s a fact. Man City are state-owned and funded by oil wealth. NUFC are state-owned. Separation is a load of bollocks, particularly when you’re dealing with dictatorships. Tell yourself whatever fairy tales you need so that those nasty Man Utd fans having a pop don’t get you down. But Man City’s success is entirely down to the oil wealth of a tiny dictatorship, which has in all likelihood spent the last decade operating outside the rules that others have had to follow.
