That's a massively overlooked point mate, if your Bellingham or any other target currently you're no doubt going to have second thoughts about signing for them. But then again if your gonna get a massive secret payment from Abu Dhabi maybe you'd take the risk Maybe you will get 10 properties over there or something mental.

I kinda got fed up with the state of English and European football in general. I’m very critical of how English football is run, and I feel like I have to be extra emotional about it because the English have a bit of Stockholm Syndrome with the Premier League. Mainly I have empathy for the clubs and fans that are derided as ‘small’ as through no fault of their own, exist within a system that rewards those that are already successful while punishing those that struggle. It is a system design for the ‘old boys club’ and I find it quite upsetting and hypocritical when football fans get upset by clubs that challenge the ‘status quo’. I don’t like financial doping in this sport but the clubs that formed the Premier League created an ecosystem where that is the only way to break the hegemony. So it bothers me when fans of the ‘nobility’ clubs get offended by the nouveau rich as if their own clubs aren’t directly responsible for the environment that creates the sugar daddy clubs. Maybe as an outsider looking in it seems like the ‘old club’ working class fans are acting like the very same Tories that deride them as hooligans, in how they treat ‘small club’ fans. The only constant feeling of excitement I have for football is waiting for the yearly ‘lads, it’s Tottenham’ moment

I think every Premier League club that was there at the founding of the PL is guilty of their part in making English football the swamp that it is today tbh

Surely Bellingham doesn't join now knowing there is a day of judgement awaiting City. Funny you should say that because this dropped the day after we had contract talks with Bellingham ..very fishy. We could always add something in the contract where players can leave etc, not that we hold players hostage anyway, they can go when they want
Happy Blue Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Rival fans are DESPRATE for us to be guilty, it's sad and hilarious at the same time ..if we don't like the out come this is what will happen ..it's been confirmed that they cant strip our titles too SUPER LEAGUE Man City Arsenal Liverpool Chelsea Spurs Man utd Barcalona Real Madrid Ath Madrid Juventus AC Milan Int Milan "We saw what happened 18 months ago when clubs tried to break away, including six Premier League clubs. What is significant is that, out of the 12 clubs that tried to break away, three of them - Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus - haven't given up. They still cling to this dream."
OrangeKhrush Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Pannick buying is this a bit of a pannick buy?

And yet Napoli lead Serie A & Newcastle are seriously challenging Top 4. If some genuinely relish the idea of a Euro-Soccer-NFL format, perhaps to sell to Americans, who largely consider it a girl's sport, they can not be more American themselves & can not be less appreciative of football's historic, communal, institutional, promotion & relegation culture. There is an argument money people will try to resurface a less closed shop idea of replacing UEFA club competitions. While still pouring ever more money to the pockets of the Sheriffs of football. But I don't especially see any particular connection of if Man City don't like the outcome of this. It just oozes the very worst personality traits of the player or manager who has decided they can only consider 3 or 4 clubs, due to their immense skill & talent. And the utter loss of perception that they made it to the top & just want the door closed for anyone to do similar & overtake them. Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace on BBC 1 on a Covid Boxing Day was the highest viewed Premier League match of all time. Any Super League would not be viewed, live at least, by anywhere near as many people in England, Britain, that would supply half the clubs. Anyone in favour of it really has no concern at all for having the sport increasingly priced out of normal people's lives, to satisfy ultra conservative money men. If you actually believe in what you've just typed in here.. it really is just sad to me that you would so eagerly close the door. I vote keeping the door open for Sunderland, Middlesbrough, QPR & even Watford.
