How about this. City deserved to win. How you accept the fact that the current position has been bought instead of won is up to you. Please don't convince yourself there is some merit in current situation. All you have to look forward to now is an increasing number of City fans without Manchester accents. Good luck.
I don't support city. Just pointing out that totsfan is being a twat and should accept defeat with a bit of dignity rather than spitting his dummy out.
totally. they are just pure class. They will give barca a good run for their money this year. the attack is just too dangerous. I dread to think how Norwich, Swansea and QPR will contain that. actually, probably better than us to be fair. yes they are spending millions and ruining football, but that's how it is and we just have to accept it. great signings, great football, great goals.
totsfan,we don't go from a good team to a bad one because of a couple of bad results. Yes it was bad but it will come right. Our form at the end of last season wasn't that great and we just need that break to kick start us. So calm down and let's see how the next games go.
Interesting that City, Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea will be top 4 tonight - assuming Arsenal don't upset the odds. What odds that they are already in their final positions
I don't think they will be top four. I suspect City, Utd and Chelski will fight it out for top, and us, Pool and Arsenal will be going for the last CL place.
What do you expect the FA to do? Genuinely curious if you think a corrupt FA targeting a single team is actually for the good of the game. Maybe Chelsea should get punished to for having money? Blackburn once bought a league so them too? Sunderland are bankrolled by a Texas Billionaire so them too? Because other than sour grapes i don't get how City are ruining football.
Devlin, not sure if you're a city fan or not, but if you are, firstly congratulations on a convincing result. to touch on the "ruining football point". there's nothing wrong with a club having money. this has always been the case with football, some have more than others. but the fact that city not only have money, but are paying insane prices for who ever they want and are offering wages that are ridiculous, how can this not ruin football? no other club can compete with this and it's causing players and agents to jump on the band wagon and get greedy. the volume of money at city's disposal has just set a benchmark that cannot be equalled by anybody, but everyone is expecting it as they know "other" players earn it. everythings been blown out of all reasonable proportion because of this. i believe Robbie keane used to earn £90k p/w ( i might be wrong). players are now turning their noses up at this sort of money. how has this happened?
You'd think the highest paid players in the league and world were all on City's books.... Suggest those having a cry do a bit more research.
My English team. Celtic fan first but that's pretty painful sometimes. I understand that. But it has been the case with others before us and Real and Barca still match us most of the time due to their insane TV money. Even City don't pay Messi and Ronaldo wages or an 80m transfer fee and with the FFPR coming in i don't think we ever will. I just don't think City are any worse than Chelsea where when they came into Roman's war chest. Some clubs have made a pretty penny out of Man City too (Blackburn - Santa Cruz, Real Madrid - Robinho, Arsenal - Adebayor) Football wages are silly. Jimmy Bullard being on 50k a week is my favourite silly wage personally haha. I just think our advantage isn't much different from clubs in the past. Blackburn once bought a league title did they not? Edit: Sorry forgot to say good game. Seen Tottenham a few times the last few weeks and i think with Adebayor in the side and if Levy pulls the finger out and brings in Parker and Diarra you could be a very dangerous team.
