General Football and Sport / Re: Man City - Cheating Bastards on & off the pitch - 115 Charges

4 on the bounce and Arsenal getting beaten two years running by the cheats might actually wake people up too. Its not like its "anyone but the Scousers " territory

It's a shame it's going to take United years to get that close to City, because maybe then we'd see more of a media swing against City. But by the time United get to that point, City will own all the media outlets in the UK.

Said it years ago after the ESL stuff which was driven by FSG the premier league wouldn't let it go and we'd suffer for years. Never thought it would be this blatant but there you go.

Was as much driven by Man Utd as it was by us. They haven't been targeted, though I guess being shite helps their case.

Now Wenger has jumped on oil money train

Are Pep,  Bernado Silva, Jack Grealish, Kyle Walker etc any better? At least Arsenal have made some sort of attempt to run the club within the rules and on sustainable grounds.

Pep et. al fall under the banner of 115FC, an amorphous mass of so much cheating that even rival fans are starting to point it out. Arsenal, as well run as they are, come across (to me) as a team that has quietly amassed a bunch of cryarsing divers that have gotten away with it only because we're all focusing on how much City get away with. Both are equally dislikeable for different reasons and they come with different ramifications depending on who wins the title.

Betting, Drafts and Fantasy/Prediction Leagues / Re: ******LFC Prediction League: Season 23******

Barney wins the Premier League title with three games to spare - congratulations!

Vishwa Atma and Ycuzz look certain to go down, but the battle to avoid the third automatic relegation place is still on. Meanwhile, Mivi is just two missed entries away from automatic relegation.

Long overdue 

Depending on others dropping out, they might stay where they are if someone takes over the reigns.

The leaked line up is a bit shit, hopefully that ends next season.
I'm not going to apologise for looking on the pre match thread before making my predictions, but I can't be the only one that does this. However I can certainly see why it ruins things a bit. Completely eliminates the 'prediction' aspect of it.

It's not something I keep record of and certainly wouldn't be trawling through 50 games worth of line ups to find out, but would be interesting to see the points tallies based on line ups alone.

They must think, like other fan bases, that we are as thick as pig shit, that can be the only reason

Fans of Wolves and Forest I imagine are just as outraged and aren't swallowing any of it. I know it hasn't stopped officials and their mouth pieces trying it on though.

Are PGMOL still doing midweek jollies in the UAE? If they stopped, surely it would have been reported upon given the conflict of interests.

However, it all seems very "omertà" about that particular inconvenient truth since the Spurs game back in Sept.

Last time it was mentioned was October and that the SYP cheating c*nt was under pressure to end the jaunts there. All gone quiet since.
I'm sure ADFC have found other avenues to pay them if necessary.

Agreed it would be a factor, but I’d think we’d prefer to buy a left back and have Gomez in centre back. Can see the logic though.

Gomez should be a center back, he’s ok as a traditional fullback but really struggled when inverting.

Yougov Poll

West Midlands Mayoral Election
Andy Street, Conservative 41%
Richard Parker, Labour 39%
Elaine Williams, Reform UK 9%
Siobhan Harper-Nunes, Green 6%
Akhmed Yakoob, Independent 3%
Sunny Virk, Liberal Democrat 2%
YouGov say this makes it too close to call

I'd have thought that the Labour-ran Birmingham City council going bankrupt would have put their mayoral candidate well and truly out of the running.  I guess the general Tory incompetence and sleaze has evened it out.

That's a fair post. It's all very unknown given the level of upheaval at the club but the worst thing we can do is what Man Utd did. I don't think we will, we seem to take a longer term view of things than them but there is a nagging doubt about it if things don't go smoothly in the short term.

And Utd, same for Chelsea are batshit all over the show behind the scenes.

We got our back office sorted first, then appointed a head coach who will work within that structure, that should allow for us to continue as we have, a well oiled machine.

Likewise the style of play not changing much I’d imagine Slot has already been given a dossier of top targets for each position from the super nerds, they will be the same list as last summer etc.
