They’ve been fucking dire TBF, bias or not. I get the feeling you wanted the Italians to win 🤔 Two teams of multi national mercenary millionaires, couldn't give a fuck either way. |

The treble is a great achievement, you can’t ignore that fact.
But I’ll be watching Eggheads or something later on, whilst the bus parade is plastered all over TV and social media.

I didn't go out of my way to find either, but Luton's parade seem to be more plastered than Man City's in terms of just being out there for people to watch. Was ours televised nationally? I don't know cos I was there obviously - but I don't really remember seeing a load of TV trucks and helicopters etc as was surrounding Luton. |

Look North and Calendar was all the TV exposure we got. |

Well done City. Yes they have the money, but many other clubs do. They have got characters who have built a great team. People will say it is easy with all the money, it isn't. Still have lots to do. Anyone who begrudges that is definitly envious. Pleased the English team won.This 100%. I even managed to swallow the bile when Manure won it. There's still nobody Champions Of Europe until they beat L***s in a final though. That's how it works isn't it?  |

It’s easy to say money won it. But why are Utd so shite then. Spent the same amount if not more. No doubt you need a lot of money to compete at the top but city haven’t spent that much more to create the gap that they have. Close game tonight though Fergie didn't win titles as the plucky underdog. Clough didn't have the smallest budget in the league. Etc etc. The teams that have won things have always been the teams with the most money. I don't get the objections with other clubs trying to join them. You'll get a once in a century Leicester, but otherwise to compete you have to spend. FFP wasn't brought in to help make the next Leicester, it was to stop them.  100% agree with this, as posted before. No more Jack Walkers upsetting the apple cart. Only reason Citeh (and soon Newcastle) get away with it is they're owned by countries. Countries who can employ the best lawyers to fight the FFP rules. Imagine if KN wanted to blast £100m a season at us? It wouldn't be allowed in the long term (is the ruling over 3 years?) and the shit would hit the fan. But why shouldn't someone be able to plough whatever the hell they want into THEIR club? FFP to protect clubs? Pffft, only the top clubs IMO |

To me, a plastic fan is one who will take the piss out of me watching Town while they get a Sky season ticket to watch their team on the telly. 2 lads at work were having a discussion about football (one supports Liverpool, the other City) a few months back, I made a comment and was told "this is PL talk, nowt to do with you". Neither of them have been near the Etihad or Anfield. The best bit about plastics is how they believe that because they support a better team than you their knowledge of the game and ability to play it is also better. Thank god for work 5aside football where you get to expose them for the absolute frauds they are. This. Once had an argument with a Manure "fan" who tried telling me THEY paid for the Denis Law floodlights. Had to get on his phone and Wiki Denis' history and he STILL tried saying it had been edited. It wasn't until I googled the Lawman's history and proved it to him. He genuinely thought I'd edited Wiki to make him look stupid  |

You may want to look up the difference between a forum and a thread. And what it says on the main page's description of Talk Of The Town. |

We don't think the Sheff Wednesday kits with Chansiri branding were anything other than a way of gifting money into the club do we?? Here's an old article from when he started doing this - all their numbers will be 12 months+ out of date at the time they were published. www.theguardian.com/football/2019/dec/19/sheffield-wednesday-sponsors-owner-not-commercially-active-dejphon-chansiri |

But knowing our luck, if Town did it we'd get busted straight away |
