It was probably like Peter Ridsdale entering negotiations with Seth Johnson.


Mythical?


At these figures, yeah!

That Ridsdale/Johnson story was untrue. They never met before the deal was signed.

Quite apart from Randy's way just feeling more right, with Platini's new rules coming in I wouldn't like to be saddled with City's turnover/wages ratio.

I'd feel uncomfortable at the speed of change with man City's money, and it would feel all slightly unreal and plastic. But I'd still pay to watch us, and I'd still go to Wembley. and I'd still be happier to see us in the CL this season looking at who we could buy rather than worry about Milner, luke young, buy to sell, etc etc etc

Maybe a little off topic but just watching SSN.....

Was a little annoying to see Garry Cooke spreading the word of MCFC in Harlem, NYC. Why aren't we doing the same in the US?

Americans are only interested in "stars" and O'Neill is scared to sign them.

Nah.

If he wanted stars he'd have to give us a lot more money. I think their policy has been very deliberate.

Accoring to the General Randy and MON are still working very closely. I'll take that over anything Pelty has to say.

Where has Pelty said they're not?  All he did was give his honest opinion, which is one that an increasing number of people seem to be agreeing with.

My point is that there is no evidence that Randy Lerner agrees with him, which is not surprising as I don't think Pelty has a fucking clue if I'm honest.

I'm sure he'll be distraught to hear your opinion of him Chris.
