PS - The fact that the media was informed of the NEC decision before I was tells you everything you need to know about the way the Labour Party is being run these days.

You would think that over 30 years of service would count for something but sadly not. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Mainoo ran further than anyone else on the pitch – 11.26km

He did that against City too

We were told he couldn't run and Amorim's army of gaslighters stuck the boot in too

@R_o_M @10kingrd It’s been like this since before Covid at W15. W12 (TRA) the same in the last couple of seasons. Senior steward turned up yesterday to give the motivational team talk about 5 mins before kick off. Things actually sped up as a result. Chaos every week.

@TheGlastoThingy @mikartistik @jonnyegotrip Asked him about Glasto. Hasn’t been booked again this year 😢. Was always a Rocket Lounge highlight. Guttted. On form tonight though!

This wildly misleading tweet, and the mostly hateful replies, is like entering an alternate version of reality.

If anybody is interested in the truth behind this claim, and what that Swedish poll actually asked, I'll go through it.

Probably banging my head against a wall. 😂

Robert Smith: "Dynamic pricing is a scam that would disappear if every artist said, ‘I don’t want that!’ (...) ‘Oh, we didn’t know,’ they say. They all know. If they say they do not, they’re either fucking stupid or lying"

See this for what it is - a state nation owned club attempting to use it's power to get its way by any means necessary. 'Tyranny of the majority' is their authoritarianism vs their attempt to destroy the Premier League's democracy.

They are not oppressed, nor victims of 'discrimination' - they are looking to circumvent the rules they signed up for because it doesn't suit them, have been caught breaking & now seek to destroy any remaining semblance of competitive balance there is left.

Utilising the political strategy of claiming to fight the establishment as a plucky underdog when you're actually a state owned sportswashing project is also a considerable reach.

Threatening to make their own fans pay if they don't get their way in the form of increased tickets prices, cutting women's football, youth development & community programs as further punishment.

You also shouldn't need to challenge financial rules if you are so adamant that you have so successfully operated within them. They are a stain on the game who belong in the amateur leagues as punishment for what they have done.

Well done to the 10-12 clubs who had the courage to stand against them, further reminder that everyone knows exactly who City are - corrupt cheats who have ruined English football.

If you cannot see now how dangerous this is as a threat to the league itself, you are not worried enough.
