Notice City’s penalty last night has awoken Liverpool’s mentally deranged fanbase (so it has)
You won’t get a worse decision this season than City’s 2nd goal (against Liverpool) being disallowed in November
Sad news about Martin Tyler retiring
Here he is at his peak, EMBELLISHING a spectacular 19 pass move and goal by Sane at a packed Emirates stadium in 2017
(ably assisted by Neville, G)
It’s not so long ago our lovely Sports Press were gleefully sticking the knife into Raheem Sterling in a borderline racist 3 year onslaught which ensured he was regularly booed for club and country
Spare us the sanctimonious shite for the Mykonos One
That banner in the Bayern end
“GLAZERS, SHEIKH MANSOUR ALL AUTOCRATS OUT”
“FOOTBALL BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE”
Suppose being being part owned by 3 huge blue chip German companies & bankrolling themselves with massively over inflated sponsorships is alright ?
Typical City,
It takes months to get back on top of the Premiership and IMMEDIATELY we are getting banned from Europe, banned from making transfers & our manager is buggering off to Juventus. Christ knows what will happen if we go 4pts clear AND Phil Foden doesn’t get a game!
SKY should show City’s 2018/19 campaign instead of the postponed game today
It might surprise the average punter that the domestic TREBLE actually happened
Wasn’t Paul Tierney reffing when City played Liverpool at Anfield & somehow Milner survived a number of bookable offences including a last man penalty decision ?
I had absolutely no idea how many absolutely blatant decisions Tierney had made against Liverpool.
Usually I don't care as every club says a ref is biased against them, but this is wild.
United are valued at £3.05bn - 51% is a lot of ding for the fans to get together
If I’m being brutally honest by look of the kecks & jackets on display today I’m not sure they’ve got it
@BorisJohnson_MP
It’ll soon be 12 months from your frankly MIRACULOUS Easter Resurrection from 50:50 Life/Death COVID.
Intensive Care to addressing the nation within 5 days.
Unbelievable Jeff
@mcfc9320group
This team of home grown players & a few shrewd signings also had the most expensive squad in the league with the highest wage bail
Fantastic achievement but don’t reinvent history
Can we all spare a solemn thought for the Doha taxi driver who is stood in the sweltering mid-day sun, holding up a laminated card bearing the name “CUSTIS”

@ftbladrian
He should research how the Moores family used their huge wealth from Littlewoods Pools to transform Liverpool shortly after promotion from the 2nd Div in the early 60s
Coincidentally this resulted in 20 odd years of unbridled success (termed as ‘istory)
Ralf Rangnick has been a poor coach for
#mufc
but a good consultant, highlighting the myriad issues such as the attitude of some players, the lack of physicality etc.
Off the ventilator today, big step forward in me vs Covid
That first brew did alright although 1 little square of butter does not have the coverage for 2 slices of toast

Worked with a bloke (late 90s) who said, at a given signal all Indian takeaways will poison the populous & there would be an uprising
Strangely, he started to organise a monthly “Curry Night” shortly afterwards - didn’t dare bring it up with him again
5 (FIFTH) place, decent chance of top 4 finish , In League Cup semis, in FA Cup 4th round, In Europa League
Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you the most spoilt, self entitled fan base in football
120+ days in ICU - Covid, Double Pneumonia, collapsed lung & Ive finally got the green light to go home tomorrow!!
I’m expecting a guard of honour on our path from the staff at Paprika Delight
God bless the NHS
Fuck the tories
Good of MOTD to squeeze in Rodri’s booking and possible 2nd yellow to highlight the injustice but completely miss Fabinho’s earlier antics
Suppose they only have so much to squeeze in
The British Press didn’t lift a finger to support City on a disgraceful attempted stitch up by UEFA that could have cost 100s of millions
I’m currently laughing my arse off how they are trying to defend that thick cart horse in Greece
If Messi deserves the Ballon d'or just because he won the World Cup then Julian Alvarez has a bigger case to win it, coz Julian Alvarez not only won the World Cup with major contributions in it. But he also won the treble & had major contributions in winning that too. Fact! 💯
Alisson has kept clean sheets in more than 47 percent of his Premier League games. That’s higher than Schmeichel, Cech and Seaman (but not Ederson…) Not defining evidence but he is one of the greatest. What separates him? Speed and power.
What time do the “City are using Covid as an excuse for a winter break” experts from this time last year, start to appear with “covid giving City an unfair advantage”?
Wonder what property tycoon Gary Neville thinks?
@Mr_Dave_Haslam
Coincidentally, Ian has his new single out today where he tackles lockdowns, vaccines & conspiracy theories with the lyrical subtlety of a dog eating last nights chips off the pavement
@Haggis_UK
He’s up to his neck in it and complicit in all the fraud, cronyism, siphoning off & squandering that went on during Covid
Countless billions
And people are squabbling about whether rail workers, postal workers and nurses should get a fair deal
Didn’t realise that
Only the 2nd first time winner of the Champions League in the last 20 years
Another good reason why clubs should welcome outside investment & challenge the established “elite”
@sampilger
The 50+1 rule (which is lauded by the British sports media) is firmly in place to make sure no other German club has a rich benefactor to dare challenge the uniquely funded Bavarians
@pgofton
I’m quite happy to explore Italy, Spain, Greece, Croatia etc
Africa, Dubai, Vegas, Australia etc don’t hold much appeal
Couldn’t think of anything worse than a Safari in Africa or a country with strict rules on alcohol
Marcus Rashford is Manchester United's most valuable asset...

@OliverKay
Hi Ollie;
Do you know the exact ins and outs of how City have allegedly “broken the rules”?
Do you think UEFA are a reputable and corrupt free organisation?
Have you or your colleagues ever considered there JUST MIGHT be another side to this story?
Thanks
@gazwhelanmusic
Brian Hibbard from The Flying Pickets unexpectedly walked in the pub when he was filming “Making Out” early 90s
The whole boozer broke into their ACAPPELLA of “Only You”, Barflies, OAPs in the vault the lot
Took it in really good spirits
RIP Brian
@henrywinter
Hi Henry;
Great news, pity not one Sports Writer (Martin Samuel excluded) took the time to research the case & offer any support whatsoever to City when it was so obviously corrupt
Bit like turning a blind eye to the 3 year racist abuse of Raheem Sterling
Overnight rain will make the going HEAVY to SOFT for 35,000 Adidads* today
Heaton Park should be sufficiently churned up for “The Kidz” at weekend
*I’d recommend an old Samba or maybe a Beckenbauer that the wife makes you keep in the shed
Brilliant eh? Wonder which G14 club, 100s of millions in debt but still spending big time has asked for the goalposts moving?
Meanwhile we wait and see if City will get banned for 2 years whilst being self sufficient & financially solvent

Can you tell me how Labour intend to bring the people involved to justice for the Serco Test & Trace?
We all know that £12bn+ public money has been filtered off through Cronyism but what is going to be done about it??
Anyone find it a bit strange that our lovely sports media that backed UEFA to the hilt with their witch hunt on City are all now falling over themselves to vindicate those poor, innocent Liverpool fans treated so badly by the now corrupt UEFA ? Thought so
@KathyBurke
The public could see what was on the way from China back in Dec, that fat oaf took 4 holidays, ignored emails, didn’t attend 5 crucial meetings & failed to have PPE & clear procedures in place whatsoever
It’s ALL on him & his cronies
