So the women players will go back to dressing the way did in the 1920s then?

From a crypto company when crypto is in decline. $70m for one sleeve! I wonder if the CEO sells employee of the month picture frames on the side.

Craig Burnley V West Ham - WEST HAM WIN - INCORRECT
The Loons at Bluemoon seem to think this PL case is also time barred for 5 years by British law.
Can't understand why you all think there's something fishy going on. Arsenal are blowing them out of the water for transfer targets goddammit. So clearly it's all legit and above board.
Any top club could have afforded any one of their host of £50-60m players.
As reported in the times today, mysterious YouTube documentary on Man City Britain's biggest football scandal?https://youtu.be/LlLRWw47HOk
As much as I want these c*nts to get the fucking book and everything else thrown at them. Penis Morgan can fuck right off with his jumping on any bandwagon just to get publicity, the massive phone-tapping twat.
I have a theory on the Rice bid. They knew weren't going to get him as he'd made it clear he wanted to stay in London. Pulling out because 'the price is too high' is a way of proving that they apparently don't have an unlimited pot of money whilst simultaneously ramping up transfer fees around them. Wouldn't be surprised if it's used as 'evidence' in future court cases.
I watched the film on youtube about City and it was good to see the regular journalists on there the likes of Nick Harris and Tariq Panjav, but the really fascinating one was the guy who worked for UEFA, he wouldn't be identified. But basically it's quite clear that a number of people who worked for the organisation had bad thoughts about what those at the top were doing. I thought the most cynical thing was that UEFA had they wanted to, could have put an appeal in against City, yet they chose not to. I have always believed this organisation is too far gone now and basically needs replacing. This has done nothing to change my initial viewpoint.
Shortly after, Ceferin starts proclaiming that there is nothing wrong with these states owning football clubs.Hmm.
£86m on Gvardiol which means centre half depth of Gvardiol, Dias, Stones, Ake, Akanji, Laporte (if he stays). 115 charges but they’re still allowed to throw further dodgy cash into their already thick squad. Games on its arse
They shouldn’t be allowed to sign players whilst under such serious investigation. Although it’s bizarre why any player would want to go there now and be branded a cheat.
Just watched that YouTube video. What a sham UEFA and that CAS appeal was. Let’s hope the Premier league are not the same and have the balls to take down these cheating fuckers.
Same reason Firmino went to Saudi, because they are greedy pricks
That's not evidence though. They'd have to provide the relevant communications if they wanted to submit it as evidence, which would show Rice confirming he wanted to stay in London. Also, "look, we didn't spend £100m" isn't actually evidence of anything. It's just PR.
I know it's not tangible evidence but it's all about building the narrative that they want around the club: "Look, we can't sign everyone".If they are able to sow a seed of doubt in people's minds that they're competing on the same level as everyone else then their objective has been achieved.If one of the individuals sitting on the panel which will adjudicate against them has in the back of their minds that they walked away from deals because of price, they'll think they can't have a bottomless pot of cash which may influence how they think on the case.
City are cheats, but they aren't stupid and will not pay over the odds for players if they don't think they are worth it. Same happened with Maguire when they pulled out and let him go to united.
yer ma should have called you Paolo Zico Gerry Socrates HELLRAZOR
Yes but the people sitting on this panel aren't dopes from BlueLoon or the people who call in to TalkShite. They aren't going to be swayed by third-rate attempts to hoodwink them.
Someone is going to have to explain to me how James Trafford is worth £19 million. Suspicious that ex Man City player Kompany is involved in such a purchase?
