Which couldn't be further from the truth. However, if you are referring to other fans believing it takes the gloss off. Well, I'm not bothered one iota about them. Why should I be? No, what i intimate is that it irks City fans that "others" believe it takes the gloss off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no frustration because for some reason, I only ever hear this dodgy money garbage on here from you guys. So keep up with your jealousy, not knowing where your money goes (apart from a bank in the Bahamas) and be content in your net spend league. BTW, you can't even win that. ? if you only here this "garbage" from us guys i suggest you get out more!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't sound like it. Anyway, taking the league as a foregone conclusion, I believe as far as your owners are concerned Pep's real task is winning the CL this season, as it was when he was at Bayern.

However, I would certainly think our owners want the CL more than anything else. For me, of course I'd like the CL but if it was a toss up between the Prem and CL, I'd take the Prem again.

Bredbury Blue Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 "believe as far as your owners are concerned Pep's real task is winning the CL this season" I don't believe thats true. Think the Owners (we have more than 1 now) will want to win the Premier, try and dominate English football for a period if possible and try and win the CL; they are savvy enough to realise there is an element of lottery to the CL knockout stages.

Then I'll give you a chance to put the record straight. Go back and look at what you said. Because in relation to the fans subject, you said "Point being it doesn't really effect anyone on here, myself included, smokes seems to be the only person who regularly attends matches." To which I replied "Neither does a club's net spend affect anyone here . So why does that get so much air time?" To which you replied "Well it does affect the football, and that affects us all." Therefore, you said the fans don't affect anyone on here but the net spend issue does affect people on here because it affects the football. Therefore, in summary, you could only have meant that the fans don't affect the football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs, one of the Big 5 back in the day, sit on the top table in the past decade or more, haven't been Champions of England since the Beatles performed at the Cavern for the first time, surely are football's definition of lack of aspirations.
