Is it the point that Man City got round existing rules initially by getting a whopping sponsorship deal from Etihad airways when rules didn’t exist to prevent that at the time, then were only fined as a result of the CAS case, and what is a financial penalty to the likes of Qatar or indeed Saudi Arabia? It’s similar to the Chelsea thing at the moment, media are reporting it as a “loophole” which will be closed but at the moment they can exploit it. I’d imagine to most fair minded folk that’s literally not breaking rules obviously but it does seem like the richest clubs are using technicalities to exploit their immense wealth..

It’s not that good 🤣

@sammynb

My understanding is that if he’s not playing centre forward he plays on the left

Good thread this, some belting pics and some utter piss takes

I’ve never been able to put a bet on with Fun 88 either🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

“I’ve been drinking champagne all week…. I don’t even like bloody champagne!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah that’s why it’s taken the PL 4 years to investigate Man City…meanwhile they’ve won how much? Chelsea will get pulled, none of the journos have done the actual arithmetic but it can’t possibly be legit under current rules…there’s just too much money to be spread out….

I’ve just seen one on Facebook, I used to go with his old man in the 80s, this young shaver suggested his 14 years attendance was sufficient suffering for his “reward” of a cup final ticket..cunt doesn’t know he’s born…

It wasn’t that busy this morning like..it’ll be even less busy tomorrow. Wednesday will be the big day I reckon… good luck mate, hope it works out 👍

That’s fuckin shite man . Did you get the email from the club saying what day to apply on?

I was thinking about this the other day, if they are royally driving a coach and horses through current rules then it’s going to be some time before they get charged with anything, evidence will have to be collected etc. All the usual wankers in the media are giving it a pass, saying it’s “a loophole that needs closing “ ….

These rules must’ve been in place at the time of the alleged offences? 🤷🏻‍♂️

You’d imagine this is why NUFC are sticking scrupulously to FFP No one is going to be allowed to do what Chelsea and Man City were able to do again… that’s maybe for the good of the game but also hugely disappointing… 😆

Fuckin hell I’ve never had to assign tickets before, I think I should’ve got a tutorial from CT or TBD…. fuck me that was stressful but it’s done now

We signed Viana the year before Ronaldo went to Man Utd but yeah..both from Sporting Lisbon… I’d never connected that before

Aye, Eddie Howe will manage the situation, not the squealing dickhead @toon4life1 with his 12 followers sat in his crusty y fronts in his mums back room

Where was lunch taken? The Lauderdale? 🍺🍺 Around the time Longstaff broke into the first team we played WH @ the Olympic park…. lots of stuff on socials about who was better in the lead up to the game but for the time he was on the pitch (Longy got done by Snodgrass and was out for months afterwards) he was ripped a new arsehole by Rice. Longy is a lot closer to him now but as you say that lad is something else at this level. Lots saying he was chatty with our players and clapped the Gallowgate when he went off….but that’s a bit of a pipe dream tbh…

That’s it like, a bit of a drop off in a few areas…we’ve even started letting goals in!!! /

Good. Because he’s only played one in the last 5 and we’ve only won one of them 🤷🏻‍♂️ As a team we’re going from very good to slightly above average form wise. That’s the whole team. Singling out a player whose deficiencies are well known in the one game he’s played seems liking missing a wider point. We’re not playing very well…

Maxi is Maxi, he’s not an Eddie Howe player as long as I’ve got a hole in my arse and you can dissect his performance today to the nth degree if it makes you feel better but this is our league record since the restart and the cunt has barley played before tonight

We’ve drawn 10 games so throwing two points away is fairly normal tbh 🤷🏻‍♂️ Badly need a Man City win tomorrow…..
