The Official: Laugh At Man City Thread

just reflecting on the media going nuts for City yesterday. Yes they dominated UTD and the ball but lets not forget the object of the game is to score goals and they scored one own goal and one scrappy one which any under 11 school team would get a bollocking for letting in. So despite all the hype they beat UTD by two fluke goals unlike two weeks ago where we did all we needed to do with the ball and scored 5 great goals but lets not upset the media's love for all things Pep

Wouldn't worry, the reaction 2 weeks ago tells it's own story, they're not arsed about City. We permenantly live in their heads though.

Two more counts of Rape added to Mendy's charge sheet.

Didn’t think he was on remand


And the story I have heard a number of times is he was being blackmailed to the tune of a couple of mil after meeting the girl on social media her saying she was 19 etc only then to be told she was 15 and if you don’t pay her this amount of money we will go public - so he went to the police

If he went to the Police he wouldn't be still be getting held and he is and was extended to January.

The story that did the rounds around here was that he's been at it with her since she was 15, he was due to get married, so jibbed her off and she eventually went to the Police.

What I don't understand is how little the oil money and the sports-washing is ever questioned by the mainstream media. Well, I do understand. If journalists speak out, or question 'Pep' - notice the genial softening of the manager's name - then they will no longer be welcome. Hence, 'Pep' can sit and answer questions that circle around the fact that his net spend is ridiculous with no one daring to directly make the point (or to ask why, or how, that money comes from).
If it can never be said 'officially,' then I think the crowd need to crow with a more political edge.
Jamie Webster keeps it nice and trite (and corporate) - I thought we were a political city? - and he blunts a stronger voice into mealy-mouthed banter.
So why not change the 'rent boy' chant to: 'Oligarchy, oligarchy - oil! oil!'

City should be treated to Abba's 'Money money money,' and Pep would prowl the touchline with those words ringing in his sanctimonious ears:
'City city city - dirty money - you're a rich man's toy.
Pep can buy the title, but it ain't worth
the human right's abuse...'

I'm new to these forums, but how do we get this to happen by the time City next stroll into town?

Yeah the effrontery of the cu*ts to make a big issue of a covid reduced squad like they didn't have multiple, multi-million pound replacements

What the F**k are you on about first? Made a right c**t out of yourself by having a F***ing go at Jamie Webster.

Lad's done well for himself, the way you talk about him makes you sound like a bitter, jealous blue!!

And the abba suggestion sounds tremendously wool!!

We don't because it sounds F***ing sh*te.

Got to be on the wind up

Nothing against Jamie Webster himself - or how well he has done - but I just wish there could be more bite to the songs.
Football is the opiate of the people, and in many ways it helps to keep the people in their place. It is also a very powerful force and could be used for political good if better directed. The COVID lockdowns showed us the power, and bandwidth, of football - why not use that to say something bigger?

Football was meant to change after the fans turned on the breakaway Euro league. United fans stormed the pitch, then months later they're gleefully buying up Ronaldo shirts. Newcastle are now oil owned, and there seems to be no question. City are back to sponsoring themselves, after the FFP bottled their decision (fearing court proceedings that City could have drawn out for years).

Protecting their self-interest, sports journalists will only ever skim the surface of such issues, but a crowd can sing (and placard) whatever it likes, and I think they should. The Crystal Palace banner was brilliant, and the fact that the police considered prosecuting shows how near the bone it came. The 'earn it' t-shirts placed in the Liverpool changing room (after the idea of the breakaway league emerged) were powerful too, the irony being that Klopp's boys had most definitely earned their achievements - they had not bought or cheated, but developed and nurtured (from a modest net spend). They were the wrong target: false class consciousness.

Those t-shirts would have been best placed in the City dressing room, because City's financial power is unprecedented, and - in breaking rules supposed to hold them in check - amounts to cheating. City and Pep should face the 'earn' it question every week: 'earn it not buy it' would be an apt slogan.

We need to make these points from the terrace (where we are free to): we need to sing, loud and proud, so that no one misses the point, and have our voices stretch out beyond the narrow confines of football.
