rather than some kangaroo court on a Greek Island.

Aaah, so now you are against kangaroo courts are you!! That wasn't the case when UEFA banned City.

So far youv'e compared the Maguire incident with Ben Stokes, and a Greek island with UEFA.

 

I'm wondering... how long will you hold this grudge against Maguire? It's been a year now. Don't you think it's time to move on?

 

I'd consider what he is alleged to have done to be less serious than drink driving, and how many footballers have been done for that?

And you have come back with an ex cricketer saying how good he is ????

 

Listen Rick, it's a bit of banter. Do I rate Maguire? Yeah, he's ok but 80mil, nah. Would I sooner have VvD? Yes. Would I sooner have Ruben Dias? Yep.

I love a bit of banter, there's just one problem..... A few weeks ago you and a few others were all saying categorically he's a terrible player!

Maguire is thick.

 

Good player?

 

Yeah very good but still thick.

Is he thick? Do you know him personally?

 

He seems to have made some pretty good decisions in his life to get to the top of his profession.

Grealish/Kane bids incoming!????..........but with New York Citeh needing a new stadium, I doubt there'll be much left for Harry and Jack!

 

'CFG have taken out a £472m ($650m) loan, underwritten by Barclays, in one of the biggest debt deals sport has seen, surpassing even Barcelona's restructuring debt that was struck with US investment bank Goldman Sachs earlier this summer'

Every player under the sun,...according to the bloody papers. I do trust the odd foreign journalist but they have been quiet so far where we're concerned.

Well we are after Trippier apparently. In some ways strange considering he is 30 and we have AWB. But I reckon he needs real competition so I am all for it. The importance of full backs is underrated... played a big part in both you and Citeh winning the title.

Well he's fast from what I've seen, so could be a good compliment to Maguire. But it is still a big change to come to the Prem after all that time in La Liga.

 

The advantage of someone like Trippier is he won't need a long time to bed in. I believe he is from up north anyway.

His mam probably still has his room made up like it was before he headed on down to Leicester Square....

Yeah, saw it the other day bud. The tiresome circus continues. This ruling though was just about how much information can be released from the UEFA case

Think about what's been in the news the last few days, and there's you wanting Maguire strung up for a night out on holiday.

I would also argue the opposite in which absolutely EVERYTHING got laid to bare in the initial inquest and subsequent appeal and NOTHING was swept under the carpet.

 

This was purely about the right to not have everything banded around in public. Even companies have a right to some privacy, especially of a economic nature

I don't want him strung up at all. I'm just throwing the garbage that you throwback at you

Whenever you’re having a bad day just remind yourself…….. 

 

“Days after his arrest, the England international told the BBC his conscience was clear and described how he had been “scared for my life” and afraid he was being kidnapped when the officers initially detained him on the party isle.”

……….. that laughing is the cure.
