    Just read the advert in the HDM, FC season passes at a cheaper price then FC's. Is it a way of helping fc move some more passes or is it AA winding AP up? I know they're contracted to buy passes but it's the first time I've known them trying to sell them on! Any ideas?

    BCC got pissed off whenever someone referred to AC Milan as AC (because he's mental), so to 'take the piss', he was referring to every team as either FC or AFC. Problem for him was nobody gave a ****.

    To make it clear:
    SMC selling FC passes at the KC cheaper then FC.
    BCC got wound up about AC so he used FC.

    Do you see?

    Why would someone in Hull want a season pass for the San Siro?

    We don't allow anyone to sell City products, they're available only from the club shop/website.

    I was just thinking, The Busdriver versus the Greengrocer would be an epic WWE fight.
    What would their special moves be?

    Pile Driver for the Busdriver, from behind.

    Greengrocer, how about the Fruity Throw?

    I've got no idea what's going on with these pass sales(I've not seen the advert), but I think the contract to buy a certain amount of tickets was just a Premier Club thing and I think it's been avoided ongoing by City switching their members to an in-house corporate membership, it's no longer with the SMC and I thought that got them out of any obligation to sell FC passes?

    Who do you think prevents merchandise being sold elsewhere? One of the turnstile operators? A cleaning lady?
    CTWD? Or the person who owns the club?

    Regardless of who started it, it's still a f****g shocking business practice to restrict access to your products.

    It still makes my piss boil to think we didn't arrange for some kind of outlet in Cairo when we signed Gedo.

    I think we only restrict them in the UK, the first time we were in the Premier League, I saw City tops in the Umbro concession in a Hong Kong department store.

    It's true that it's always been the case, I don't suppose it really matters when you're a lower league club, but for a Premier League club it's bonkers.
