    Why would people be happy Man City lost? They are not one of our rivals. A matter of indifference to me.

    What are you on about? I don't think anything about this situation - I asked a question.

    And if it didn't happen it doesn't mean they were lying, they could just be wrong.

    Maybe. But if they witnessed it and heard what went on and was said then the odds are they were right.

    Which is precisely why I asked if it was FACT.

    I really don't know why you're replying to this with second-hand information. If you don't know if its FACT or not then maybe let someone else answer who does know.

    Makes you wonder how long Citeh will give Pep...Failure to get into the last 8 is a serious failure.

    If they don't win the FACup and get runners-up, he'll be on slippery slope.

    I like the way in previous years Citeh have constantly bemoaned the bad luck they have had in the draw when being paired with one of the superpowers. This time they get the team everyone wanted to draw and still get knocked out.

    Maybe I don't think fellow posters post lies and inaccuracies. You obviously do.

    Neither MK Dons nor Wimbledon are our rivals, but a small handful on here were thrilled beyond words that the Dons lost the other night.

    Twas also claimed the football world rejoiced at the result. Which was patently not true.

    Both events are simply a source of amusement for me.

    Two things here:
    1) I never accused anyone of lying. You're the one who used that word.
    2) You 'don't think fellow posters post inaccuracies'... Ahh, so you've agreed with every post ever made on this board, how nice.

    Leicester can expect to earn about €75m in UEFA prize cash for their CL exploits so far. This football romance malarky is also lucrative.

    Meanwhile over at the English FA. how much do the winners of the FA cup get? plus because they paid about 1 billion to rebuild Wembley stadium they have so many games there to recoup the costs. It cost North Ferriby more than their prize money to be there.

    Wasn't even aware of it, such is the decline in my interest of football things in general.

    Disagreeing with them is a different thing altogether. You can disagree with someone'-s thoughts on something.

    The winners of the FA Cup get just over £4m, but that's just for winning and playing in the final, they get several more million for the earlier round games (there's up to £250k for each televised game).

    Ok that's fair enough - so you think nobody has ever posted something incorrect.

    End up a couple of places higher in the PL and the club gets more.

    I know, there is so much money in the game as a whole but little of it trickles down to those in the lower leagues and at the famous grass root level the FA are so keen to promote.
