He signed a new deal after years of being pure dog shit but I do believe when he joined them he was paid north of 100k a week. His new deal surely was a pay cut let alone a pay increase!

It’s glorious, I never thought they’d ever fall this hard. Obviously they’ll probably be back up there one day, but funny for the time being. 2 hours ago, Raw Dykes said: I'm loving it. It's providing me with a lot of the entertainment that my own team aren't, currently. I've been watching a lot of their fan channel stuff, and it seems like this could just be the start of something. I think they have 17 players who want out, there are players who want Ronaldo and Rangnick out, they've got Mike Phelan back in to sort the mess out, etc. It's a club that is rotten to the core, and it's hard to see how they sort it out. It is glorious. Absolutely. 1 hour ago, Fox92 said: It's even better for people our age who grew up with people at school clinging to Man United just because they won everything. Man United now are like what Liverpool have been for most of my life... not challening for titles, trying to battle out for top 4 and maybe the odd domestic cup win (even though Liverpool won a CL under Rafa also). Never forget the part we've played in their downfall too. True, nobody could have predicted we'd achieve what we have, but that 5-3 was definitely a huge blow to their ego at the time. Plus, we made them pay £80m up front for Harry ****ing Maguire . Never let them forget that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Soar Fox Posted 6 January 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 6 January 2022 5 hours ago, NAKC20 said: I see Leeds United are to ban the parents/guardians of kids who run onto the pitch after a match for 12 months from their stadium because it is breaking the 'Red Zone Area' that the pitch is supposedly part of. That's all well and good but what about the players that go into the crowd celebrating a goal? Cant see them getting any punishment and surely that is more of a concern and something all clubs should be stopping. Can we also ban parents who let their kids turn up with them shitty cardboard placards begging footballers for shirts, boots or anything else they can scrounge for free. 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyll never be like they were before, not these days. Well I’d argue they turned the corner last year. Top 4, back in a final, good spirit returned. Then they foolishly signed Ronaldo, just as things were looking promising. That signing alone, ruined fernandes who was at his best as the star man with all the plans. Diminished the signing of Sancho and probably knocked his confidence as he was now overlooked by fans. Took the real element of captain away from maguire, as let’s face it... who are you going to listen to. Stunted the opportunity for growth of greenwood. Basically retired cavani. just in general he’s had a negative impact on everyone. Because it goes from a team game to ‘let’s focus on the star’ in the prem teams don’t function around one player, not a single team. Liverpool rely on more than just salah. They could easily say, let’s let him do everything because he’s great. But they don’t, they know that they also have a great player in mane or jota. That Trent delivers excellent set pieces. That Milner, van d and Henderson are better leaders despite being worse players. Im glad they did it, because they’ve set themselves back years now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to school in the 2000’s being a Leicester fan surrounded by Man U fans was tough. Makes it sweeter. I suppose it’s Man City for kids at school now. This is why the worn-out, totally unfunny 'Emptyhad' jokes will become completely irrelevant. Once the kids that started supporting Man City are old enough to go to games off their own back you will see a full stadium every week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eblair Posted 7 January 2022 Share Posted 7 January 2022 our re-arranged fixtures are farcical, problem of being a club our size even when Brendan moans none of the national media pick it up really disheartening going to have to watch 14 players hack away in Jan, hopefully fans just fully get behind them as nearly all of us can recognise how much of a joke it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently she's managed to get lorry loads of stuff by doing it over the years. Her dad (who is also a massive, entitled whopper btw) stands behind her and shouts and points to the sign. It's just gross hogging of the stuff. I know adults might end up getting it but I much prefer flinging it in the crowd, at least there's some variety of who gets what, instead of whoever brings the biggest sign. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it will be very similar to the James Rodriguez to Everton move. Immediate purple patch of good form which will drop off before it turns sour and he collects a massive weekly wage without playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
