like, at some point, it's worth considering that the endless confidence and certainty from man city sources was the bosses just lying through their teeth to everyone.
Manchester City never thought this day would come. They have always maintained their innocence, so the news they have been found guilty on almost all of the Premier League charges against them could barely have come as a bigger shock. For a club that has just enjoyed the greatest decade of its existence, this changes everything. 📝 @SamLee 🔗 nyti.ms/3T2sKNm

hmm
The fact that the #PL charges cannot be time-barred is even being seen as a positive by #ManCity, with some feeling that being able to defend the charges in full represents an opportunity. [via @MailSport]

vape shops and shady "american candy" places even offer more social value than betting shops.
EXCL: Fred Done, Britain’s biggest taxpayer, says he’s too old to quit UK but wouldn’t wish to be reborn here. He warns he will close half of BetFred shops in the face of Budget tax rises and high street bookies will be “dead” by 2030 as.ft.com/r/1f2e010b-22bc-47…

267k followers. Not a single number close to accurate. This is the shite you get when you rely on aggregators and click merchants with zero accountability

Did nobody ever clock that ‘The Butcher’ is one of the worst nicknames a defender could ever have?

city feel like doing a liverpool 24/25. team built by a great manager still in place, but players working under someone more relaxed and less intense.

if your subscriptions to watch club football are due to renew in the next few days, cancel them now. don't end up paying during the double international break.
if you subscribe to tnt sports month-to-month right now, it'll be due to renew at the start of the international break. so you can cancel it for a couple of weeks before restarting. should save a month or so across the season.

both teams -pressing hard to win the ball -immediately trying to get into transition the moment they win the ball -it doesn't work, surrendering the ball to return to step (1) very annoying football to watch

Its so bad if you haven't see the clip from this they just start slagging him off saying he should be grateful that he's playing for 'united'. He's a literal child.

he's 15 years old. leave him alone to be a kid. shame on everyone doing this, from his agent down to the journalists running the story.
JJ Gabriel has asked to leave Manchester United and is trying to enter into free agency, as called by @Matt_Law_DT. Manchester United are unclear what has prompted the request. The plan, prior to it, had been to include him in the first-team squad tomorrow for the EFL tie with Brighton. #MUFC Feel the situation is rectifiable, but @talkSPORT understands the player is pushing to leave as soon as possible. Although nothing is formally lined up, it’s understood JJ Gabriel has another Premier League club in mind.🔴
