Yeah - like they score about 20 goals a season, all added together.

I wouldn't worry about it Mick as Celtic can only afford Arsenals yesterday men like Hartson and Freddie, also some of the players are midfielders who feed strikers rather than score but I won't let that get in the way of your huge footballing wisdom.

But I thought City had the best fans in the world and all lived local. I bet Dzeko is trying to find that bloke who told him City had the most supporters in Manchester. It was only ?15 to get in last night as well. Maybe as it was a night game they were worried they would miss the last train back to Stockport :))

Actually there was a University that did a study of Utd and City season ticket holders a few years ago. Utd had more season ticket holders in Manchester than City did.


Utd have also had higher crowds than City every single year since 1946, not all Utd fans are Johnny come lateley's, although plenty are of course. Years ago you used to see Liverpool shirts everywhere, then Utd and Arsenal and more recently Chelsea, sure it will change again soon.


Out of interest Emerson where did you grow up, Islington I presume?

To be precise, just up the road from the Angel not too far from Highbury Corner is where I lived when I was small.

We didn't miss you or your posts so feel free to stay away more often

Thanks Jah.


As I said, I really enjoyed the Spurs game. The only disappointment and, I think, the reason that Spurs didn't win was that Bale disappeared a bit. If he'd have played us the way he played Inter we would have been in real trouble. As far as the sending off went I think it was a stupid first tackle and any defender who gets a booking that early has to be very, very careful as it only take one bad decision to get a second yellow. United's defending was superb which was a bonus (and it had to be).


Tonight, for one time only I shall be cheering on Leeds. Shame Beckford isn't still playing for them ;).

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
