PM your point may hold for Man City but Sid has been making comments about RB Leipzig. Now where is the moral difference between them and another multi national in north west England. What is a false equivalence is his comparison to supporting your Country when there was alleged malpractice going on and supporting a multi national company in northwest England when you are from Ireland. Hypocrite of the highest degree. Sid was far better when his hyperbole was used to satirise on here. Now that he is pontificating it’s crazy stuff.

Funny how I knew you'd bring that up Desperation stakes for the despot defender Liverpool supporters don't generally defend the thugs at Heysel Unlike Manchester City supporters with their beloved despots, who generally do: "What's wrong with indentured slavery, what's wrong with it?!" Manchester City employed a paedophile for many years by the way If you're going to defend the human rights abusing despots, seems a bit inconsistent you wouldn't defend the paedophile Edited by sid waddell - 15 Aug 2020 at 10:38am |

Paddy Power had very generous odds on Barca 1+ goal, 3 + corners, and Bayern 1+ card each half. I didn't go for it. I'm 99% certain they got 3+ corners each half. |

I'd have Robertson a good bit ahead of Tierney tbh. Last night highlighted Barca's woeful business in the transfer market. None of their 3 most expensive players started, Griezmann coming off the bench, Dembele an unused sub, and Coutinho with 2 goals and an assist for Bayern.

The one leg play-offs have been great to watch.
I’m not a fan of the away goal rule so would like to see more of it. I wonder will they keep it for the 2020/2021 champions league 1/4 and 1/2. It would make sense given the reduced season.

Well, I suppose Lucozade Leipzig are just used purely as a front for a high caffeine, high sugar drink, which isn't quite as bad as being a front for despots Sightly better to be merely plastic than pederastic and mental gymnastic Funny you mention "false equivalence" when your unironic use of it is unintentionally hilarious, a team which is set up purely as a marketing front for a caffeine drink is not equivalent to other football clubs in what it is They're not even remotely equivalent to PSV Eindhoven which was set up as the team of workers from the Philips company which was set up in Eindhoven Funny you mention my satire because you're doing a damn good job of showing why I wrote it in the first place, your "argument" is unironically trying to protect human rights abusers by using Russian style lowest common denominator trolling technique, it's like unintentional satire Oooh, you said "pontificating" - another "shut down" word Once you you use "pontificating" it's an admission you don't have any actual arguments "Pontificating" comes from the same place as "snowflakes" and "virtue signallers" - basically "you;re saying awkward things that are making me uncomfortable - shut up" Use of it is designed to destroy any dissent which voices uncomfortable truths - it's designed to protect the powerful who are committing grievous wrongs You might actually address the points in my previous posts, thanks The arguments used by the Man City defenders here are similar to those who defended the participation of apartheid South Africa in sport Edited by sid waddell - 15 Aug 2020 at 11:02am |

In the hundreds and thousands of man city related tweets and podcasts that I’ve listened to over the years I’ve never once heard or read anything like that from a City fan. Lets not let that get in the way of your broken record rhetoric though You’ll be referencing “Russia“ and “far right“ again soon I’m sure A lot of clubs employed paedophiles in the 70s and 80s, you only seem to mention one Edited by Roberto Baggio - 15 Aug 2020 at 11:19am |

The performative stupidity is breathtaking Would I prefer if Liverpool were still locally owned, yes, I'd prefer the German model of supporter ownership to be honest, but that horse has bolted in English football But Fenway and the Glazers or Randy Lerner or Stan Kroenke or whoever are not fronts for the Trump regime or US foreign or domestic policy, they are venture capitalists Manchester City's owners are a pure front for the Abu Dhabi/UAE regime and thus Manchester City FC is a pure front for Abu Dhabi, they are used purely for regime reputation laundering The same regime which just two days ago threw Palestine under the bus and legitimised Israeli occupation

But I or any city fan are not a spokesperson for that just as much as you’re not a spokesperson for the Fenway group

Why wouldn't I mention Russia and the far right On this thread we have Russian style lowest common denominator trolling to try and protect a despotic regime and claim false equivalence to US venture capitalists Russia is a far right state and its trolling techniques are used to advance far right interests So is Abu Dhabi a far right state A lot of clubs did employ paedophiles Celtic was one, Manchester City was another An utterly shameful occurrence in the history of those clubs, and it should never, ever be allowed to happen again as it ruined countless lives If Manchester City fans are prepared to face up to the awful truth of that, and I think most of them probably are, why are they then not prepared to face up to the awful truth about what their use as a reputation laundering by Abu Dhabi is I guess the difference is that the paedophiles aren't multi-billionaires who are buying success Incidentally the Abu Dhabi regime itself is more than prepared to use paedophiles to secure contracts from Trump and to lobby for Trump to move US foreign policy in an anti-Qatar direction |

Because it’s boring, irrelevant and verging on crackpot behavior on almost every thread

The Fenway group are not human rights abusers Liverpool supporters are not spokespeople for Fenway There is no case for Fenway to be disqualified or barred from football club ownership based on who they are or on the basis of human rights abuse, or even on the basis that states should not own football clubs There very much is with Abu Dhabi and Manchester City, as was the case with Newcastle and Saudi Arabia Yet any time the despotic nature of the Abu Dhabi regime and how Man City are used as a reputation laundering foreign policy tool of them is brought up, Manchester City supporters cry "you're just jealous" This is really simple stuff And yes, I'd rather languish in lower mid table and not abuse human rights than win everything with blood money

A common response of those who don't like awkward truths This is a discussion forum The favourite technique of those who want to protect powerful people who are committing grievous wrongs is to paint those who oppose them and highlight what they are and what they do as "crackpots" To claim that opposing real crackpots is itself "crackpotism" - that's the technique used by Russia, Trump, the Tories and the Brexiteers, Abu Dhabi, the Indian regime, the Chinese regime, the defenders of far right regimes in Europe like Poland and Hungary This applies at every level from the highest levels of international politics down to two bit internet forums like this It's a cancer of public discourse that has infected the world and is the main way that positive change is stifled - because facts and their meaning cease to exist - and that's by design And you engage in it there Edited by sid waddell - 15 Aug 2020 at 11:53am |

Again the Russian style narrative being used "Everything is sh*t, everything is equally bad" Complete cynicism, yet complete gullibility The internet is the perfect home for this sort of sh*t because eejits just throw in their tuppence worth, which isn't even worth tuppence, and don't have to stand over it That's how trolls and propaganda manipulate public opinion to far right positions - by completely flooding the public sphere with far right bullsh*t and vacuous soundbytes and drowning out reason or the ability to catch a breath and engage any sort of critical thinking |
