I don't know if it's been mentioned on here, but how ridiculous is it that Blackpool couldn't get the game on this weekend? A Premiership club unable to put on a playable surface after a bit of snow. Disgraceful.

To be fair, saying that the English game is corrupt and then listing two non-English people is not the best way to state your case.

Very harsh. What’s wrong with ‘posh’ people watching the game? That’s as ridiculous as someone stating that working class people should not watch cricket.
I would imagine that most cricket fans have limited knowledge of the game and don’t even know what a ‘Chinaman’ is, or how to bowl a ‘flipper’, or what position the seam and wrist should be in when bowling an outswinger. I do but it doesn’t make me a ‘better’ fan. TBH I hardly even watch the game nowadays. Too much going on in my life to concentrate on more than one sport.
I personally think it is great to see most of the inhabitants of the country all getting behind a group of people who are representing the country. While at work, I’d much rather over-hear conversations about football rather than X Factor and the likes.

Interesting to see you can't help but talk about us again though.
It’s interesting to see that fans of other clubs berate the press for making-up stories about the club they support but when a story appears about City it is regarded as the indubitable truth.
We can expect more of this as the team appears to be improving. The hacks who like Harry Redknapp because they feed off his leaks (about Spurs and other clubs) and those who want to suck-up to Slur Alex in order to be welcomed in to his inner-circle of sycophants, will be apoplectic with rage if we make the top 4, and I am sure they will do whatever they can to try and rock the boat.

Good player, but doesn't quite do it all yet, for me. He's so dangerous when he's near the opposition area, or in the opposition area, but I don't think he does it allover the field. Whereas with Fabregas, you get the player than runs the game, links all of the play and still battles. Nasri is a class player though, should be interesting to see what Wenger does if Barca come back for Cesc. If selling Fabregas meant he could sign a centre half, a battling midfielder and a new goalkeeper, I'd probably do it, 'cause Nasri, Ramsey and Wilshere combined would easily fill the void.
Fickle Geordie cunts! There's little more Hughton could've done at the club, promotion at the first time of asking, a decent Carling Cup run, sitting 11th in the league and thrashed their rivals in a recent derby and that deserves a sacking? Unbelievable. Just when you think Mike Ashley and the board can't get any worse they do this. Hughton should feel very very hard done by.

One of the most farcical decisions I can ever remember in football. He took them up with a massive points total when many thought they'd struggle. He guides them to mid-table when many thought they were certs to go down. They win at Arsenal, they beat their local rivals 5-1. As you say, what more could he have done given the limited budget available? If you ask me, the guy had worked a bloody miracle.
