"We can't look at the past"

Can't we? My God, what a self-serving spiv.

He's bought and paid for...that's what i got from watching that.

No one will care what ornstein says, neville is pretty much 'the voice' of sky football so that will cut through big time

Absolutely

The client journos of the PL are coming out of the woodwork. We knew they would.

RESIST.

 

[lieneverton]

As expected the "best season to take the hit" line is the headline tidbit used to get this thing to blow over. Absolutely pathetic.

 

[davek]

Let them take their shots. They have one shot at this while we will agitate for the rest of the season when they try and move on selling the 'product'.

They're going to get it first on Sunday and every match thereafter.

Ruin their 'product'. Keep calling them corrupt. Keep the guerrilla tactics going.

They've taken on the wrong club here.

Client journo rats beware.

Saying stuff about signing Gueye and Doucoure, selling Digne, and the potential for that to be viewed as "reckless"

He was on the Athletic's podcast the other day and was totally on our side, just changed up a bit

I was going to say he was quite defensive on the Athletic podcast. Strange that he has changed tact and a bit of a worry with the comments from Joyce earlier in the week.

The fact he has changed tact just highlights that someone has clearly had a word, and further confirms the PL are desperately trying to control the narrative.

Assuming this is referring to Man City, when did they take out a loan to build a stadium? Wasn't theirs given to them?

Wasn’t it to pay for the change from an athletics stadium to a football stadium after they were gifted it?

 

[Moomin]

Reductionist nonsense and one the false narritives you are keen to push to prey on peoples anxieties

How is it false? The majority of the years in question we would have been paid by USM.

For the 21/22 season we might have been paid in full at the start of the season, no idea what terms we would have agreed.

 

[Connor]

Like that Nick Harris on Lineker's podcast. That was dreadful, and very pro-PL.

He's always been a clown

The face of a man who just enjoys smelling his own farts

Just started watching this. Well done to Gary Neville for bringing the conversation back to reality after 5 minutes of Everton bashing from that weasel Ornstein and Keane, telling us to “take our medicine”. Just felt like it was getting set up as a pro-PL arse covering and damage limitation exercise, I’m surprised Neville was allowed to say what he’s said and it’s been allowed to go out by the producers.

Part of his contract is that he can say what he wants rather than be told what to say in context of a football opinion.

 

[NathDogg]

It’s clear the Cartel are applying the thumbscrews to any journos they don’t already own, or just lashing all of them big bags of money to peddle the absolute nonsense.

They are trying to turn the rest of the football world against us, let them - we ain’t going anywhere.

No FFP rules back then.

Guessing it may be linked to extensions to the Etihad.

Wants to sue his barber.

Doesn't look all there really does he..poor soul.

2022 was the year we were forced to cut ties with Ussie, there is a good chance it has affected that years accounts, what is certain is that it affected our ability to increase revenue that year, a potential 200m stadium naming rights deal just one example.

You have stated you don't know what was agreed so stop taliking in absolutes like you do to try and terrify people that its going to get worse.

You've spoken on this subject with zero nuance to deliberately paint the worst possible picture to stoke anxieties, and to speak o a tribunal which has no precedence or specific structure and guidlines to follow is just nonsense.

We go back a ways and I not only nearly always find myself agreeing with you, I've often found muself educated, but you are out of order on this. It's a scary subject for a lot of people who fear they might be losing something important to them and insincerely stoking that is sunday journalist style behaviour. This isn't personal in anyway, top poster and a nice fella but I won't be engaging on this subject further as I'm not going to be dragged into your troll-asphere
