Everton looking at another  possible points deduction next season.

 BREAKING: Everton will begin the season with the threat of another POINTS DEDUCTION, as the Premier League alleges that the club breached its PSR rules by an extra £11.5m-£17m for the 2022-23 season.

FFS, can we just relegate them and be done with all this piece-meal shit? Take Stockport City with them.

I think it was an intentional swipe at the cheats from the Etihad.

Not sure why they are called Stockport though.

Traditionally, owing to their previous location at Maine Road when they operated as a normal Football Club, they drew a lot of support from nearby Stockport hence the nickname either Stockport City or more recently Stockport 115 as a disparaging and juvenile barb at the despicable organisation they have become today.

But all those clubs were originally named or from, Stockport is a conurbation of greater Manchester but a town in its own right with a Football Club, why don’t we call Manure Bury or Bolton?
No problem with disparaging Citeh but calling them Stockport doesn’t really do it.

Well, the way I see it, like a lot of what goes on here it doesn't really stand up to analysis but then it's not supposed to.

Exactly, it's a bit of banter, which isn't usually based on anything other than trying to piss the other fans off. It's like the knuckledraggers saying we're not a proper Birmingham team.

There's some nose on twitter that always gets bites from villa fans about postcodes. It's so obviously bollocks, but people still bite.

I used to live near Stockport which probably explains why I didn’t understand the Barb :-)

Yeah, I got the Stockport thing from Nev as it always made me chuckle. Humour is more important than facts on H&V.

You're just a small town in Scotland to Newcastle fans is similar.

The Stockport thing was started by the ManU fans I think, as good enough reason as any not to use it.

Even on the Yanited forum they reckon Citeh draw their support from the SK postcodes, so there's a grain of truth in it.
