Show Me The Money!

What the FA should have done is to just exclude those prem teams who qualified for Europe from the FA cup 

HT

This is championship football city style (and most of the champ to be honest). Good one week, pants the next.

These moaners , the anti manning mob need to take a look at Luton manager rob Edwards who was manager at FGR then went to Watford they SACKED him after 4 months he then made them look silly by taking a less fancied team to the PREM -LUTON TOWN 

Will you please stop moaning about the moaners. These moaners moaning about the moaners really get my goat.

Work, other commitments. I probably don’t have the right to comment recently because I don’t go to games much but I have been to many games over the years, and most of them were in the days when city were in the third and forth division. I do pay to watch online. For all the memorable games I have been to there are many more forgettable games. 

Woah there, everybody has the right to comment no matter how many games you go to. 

It’s shouldn’t be for anyone to say who can comment and who can’t. 
 

That’s regardless of whether I agree with your posts or not

Everyone gets so easily wound up. What is wrong with people?

I know we should all be like you in “Band of brothers”.

Oh sorry that was Damian Lewis. My bad!

(poor joke I know. I’ve been drinking)

I’ll often repeat my posts 2 or 3 times as you never like my posts or laugh at my jokes the first time around you f&£kers!

Was it piss anyway? Could have been Foster’s. Easy to confuse the two

Spent a fortune on that damned Southampton memorabilia.

Now I have to buy the bloody Leicester memorabilia.

It's a money-making racket.

I’m hoping there will be some Rotherham memorabilia so I’m holding on got that.

Monday will be the marker for me thats where this club usually fall down against the lesser sides so I will reserve my self until then 

I’d say it will be more so the remaining 3 home games which will be more against teams that will park the bus against us

Are other clubs so consistently embarrassing off the pitch while achieving precisely nothing of note on it, all at the same time?

This season alone we’ve had..

Ditching Hummel when others didn’t.

Poor quality O’Neil kits.

Crap and vastly overpriced merchandise in general.

Blue training wear that has absolutely no connection to any of our kits.

Woeful stock levels at peak sales periods like Christmas.

The splat Robin that no one wanted.

A commemorative shirt for one FA Cup win in 1876 or something.

A squad photo released in March.

And that’s before we even talk about the decision to replace Pearson with Manning.

And 2 dead pigeons in the water tank.

Apart from all that we’re all happy as Larry

This has given me a fantastic money making idea. I’m going to buy some of these tee shirts from Peacocks for £5.20. Then I’ll write “Frank” (my middle name) on them in felt tip and sell them for £35, giving me a quick £29.80 profit. OTIB members can have a 5% discount. Just PM me

 

 

 

Well if people really want to send a message to the club then this actually isn’t a bad idea. You could get some cheap white t-shirts, get the letters STB or the full “Sack the board” printed on the front and then sell them outside the ground, maybe priced a little over production costs so that you could donate profits to a charity at the same time.

Would be so funny and also a real striking message to the club to see loads of fans wearing anti club t-shirts instead

I’m looking forward to seeing the Iain Baird “Middle Finger” range.

Not for me. There were people who were hijacking threads months ago, ruining some decent debate at the time, and they have now disappeared. One or two were even working for BS, that was demonstrated. There most definitely was a Pearson Out Mob who were keen to denigrate his contribution to barely zero and promise us we had just recruited the next Pep in lieu. They got their wish. 100% true that is. It's taken us back 18 months imo whether they wanted it to or not. These are the same bunch who say we should be careful what we wish for when anyone questions ownership. No sympathy for them tbh. That's just my view.

Yes, we are at a divisive point, that much is fact, some of the most divisive being the hierarchy of the club itself.

Need to be careful what you’re saying here as this is a forum after all. Just because some people disagree with an opinion (and let’s be really really really clear here pretty much all posts on here are opinions) doesn’t mean they are hijacking a thread. It’s called debate.

Regardless of what people’s opinions of LM were when he took over till now I’ve seen very few if any people bar those identified with a BS connection happy with the way the board dealt with the situation or of there running of the football side in general. That’s my opinion

When Everton fans use this arguement it's funny. Because the PL were negligent in bringing charges against them which saw other clubs relegated. 

But the PL have been investigating this for 5 years for Man City. 

I think the majority of Everton fans and other prem fans are wanting to see Man City and Chelsea punished as they see it as the premier league just using lower prem team as an example of them being able to manage themselves and not need an independent regulator.

i dint see any major punishments coming Man City or Chelsea’s way as they are frequent premier league winners. Them being found guilty could lead to a collapse of the whole premier league

Manning is doing a lot behind closed doors as well....sadly none of it is positive and the only thing this whole failed experiment has succeeded in is creating division between fans and the club and between fans and other fans. 

Supporting this club has never felt so difficult as it does now.  Usually you can find some things to be positive about. Youth coming through, players playing with pride even if they're not getting the rub of the green etc, but right now there's literally nothing.  Zero. Zilch. Nada.  And it's bloody soul destroying it really is. 

I've given over 40 years of my life to supporting this club.  Others have given even more. But I have never in those 40+ years felt as despondent as I do now.

Sad thing is though if you look back over those 40 years you will have most likely felt despondent at many times, div 4 times, Pulis era, Tinnion as manager, McInnes era, end of Johnson senior era, Johnson Junior losing streaks, Holden era and even some of Pearson’s era. 
 

Are you more despondent now than any of those times?

Or have I just made you even more despondent about supporting City in general?

I'd argue JCR did a decent job here and wasn't on massive wages ether

I remember him being all step overs and little else. Signed when Johnson senior’s term was going sour
