As a city fan if we don't win it's a real doozy of a choice between crowing Liverpool fans acting as if their winning amounts to divine anointment of their lord and saviour's final year, and arsenal fans being, well, arsenal fans

Xabi posted:Let's just say that none of us wants to see 115 asterisks after the league's done IMHO. Just digging down on this point for a second - does anyone here seriously think a club like Chelsea, for example, came into their wealth and spent it more morally or sustainably than City? Does FFP represent some objective and incontrovertible truth, or is it an imperfect collection of rules thrown together by fallible organisations with numerous competing vested interests? More to the point, if City are cleared of the charges, or if we're handed a punishment that doesn't include revocation of all previous titles, would people who talk about the charges accept the result? Or will they continue to use it as a stick to beat us with, like the fact we spent a loving shitload of money to get to where we are is somehow lost on some people?

Like I get hating us for the money and sportswashing, just the judgement of whether we spent that money 'legally' or not seems incredibly arbitrarily defined both within the PL and across world football in general.

No the hate is fine it's just the hate with the additional obseqious appeal to an authority which we all generally acknowledge as corrupt and stupid as hell that confuses me.

Klopp posted:“Phil Foden best English player at this moment and Trent respects that. But, he was born in Liverpool and he has played for all the youth teams - one of our slogans is ‘this means more’ and it means more to us - what happens here means more to us. The “this means more” poo poo is the absolute worst Liverpool fandom related thing and I’m sure Klopp knows its bullshit but he always understood his assignment at Liverpool to be fair to him. that it was an artificial slogan created by an advertising agency and then gulped down by the fans and apparently some of the squad is particularly egregious Butterfly Valley fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Mar 8, 2024 |
