Pre-tax losses and gains from accounts since 1992 when the prem started. Everton <laugh>

I'd say Liverpool the most impressive on there. Although it's not fans' money let's face it so who really cares as long as you win.

"In reality, Man City’s losses are >£1bn more because they disguised equity as revenue & paid opex off-book.Chelsea’s & Villa’s are bogus too because they sold £100m’s of assets intra-group.Newcastle can justify their loss as commercial. Villa too maybe."

When you're older you'll think why did i put myself through it, so much more I could have done. Knowing full well you'd do it all again.

My daftest - aged 21 - coach home (to Leicester) from Uni about mid-day to meet up with cousin and 3 mates - climbed on a 12 seater mini-bus to go to Exeter for an FA Cup 4th round replay - there were 20 of us so had to take turns sitting in the aisle / on a seat. We were Ist division they were third or fourth.

Lost 3-1 - all the way back to Leicester arriving early morning - jumped on first coach back to Uni - got there in time to crawl into bed before the girlfriend woke up - on her birthday - which is how the date will forever stay in my mind.

Looking back - ****ing madness ...
 
Don't think I could go to the lengths of the stuff you've got to do regarding this bubble.

Think I'd be trying to get in the home end if I wanted it that bad. I know you have to keep Stum and they might smell, but you can be grateful for small mercies if you win, in enjoying their silence and bile.

Don't think I could do a home end, even at other grounds. Having to stay quiet would take all the fun out for me.

Our squad can barely manage one game per week so predictably we’ve got a very bizarre line-up of the not particularly good and/or not in form. Would chuck Oxford into your acca at 6/4 if you want some value.
 
Out of jail - scarce deserved - turgid, tedious, toothless, toiling ... some good kids but some painfully average players with scant desire, commitment or energy ... need to bring in at least 4 in this window ... but probably unable to due to PSR etc..
 
So what do we think has gone wrong at City, has Pep maybe been tinkering too much, has he let past players go that he probably should have kept?

I noted yesterday, no start for Doku or Semenyo, the latter being ineligible for the CL league stage. He also only used one of his subs swapping Foden for Marmoush.

In the league Doku and Semenyo play on opposite sides yet at Bournemouth, Antoine played where Doku is which switches when he takes Doku off.

I think only one person understood Haaland and that was De Bruyne, why can't the others feed Erling in the same way, Foden ocassionally does, but he got subbed, so then it's now down to the new guys, it all seems disjointed and no longer flowing.

When Rodri aint injured he's getting himself sent off. <laugh>

Should Guehi stay at Palace, oh **** too late!

So to the tacticians out there, what has gone wrong, easiest league ever to win, hope it will be served up with an asterisk...

Grealish out for 3 months.

Shame for the lad, he has done okay since he came to us. Wish him all the best, especially if it’s back with us on a decent deal in the summer.

Imagine not being able to rebuild a team with unlimited funds
 
Sheffield United at home tonight for us.

Today marks 18 months clean so fully expecting Saints to try and push me towards relapse.
