It was the same with Lucas. They made up their minds after one early under par performance and ignored subsequent evidence. Constant unfair criticism and blame. Eventually, many of those people wouldn't even own up to having behaved like that.

There was a whole Russia report on the subject, but Johnson suppressed it as it was inconvenient. I'm sure that Dominic Grieve could speak at length about it.

It's a shame that the on field ref didn't know that. 😬

Investment in infrastructure is fine. If a club exists at a certain level solely as a plaything of an owner, what happens if the owner gets bored & takes his money with him? Wages still need to be paid, & if a club doesn't generate enough to survive without the owner's funds it's not sustainable.

Clubs should live within their means. Regarding wage caps, it should probably be about 65% of a club's income, to be sustainable. There may be an argument for owners to put in a small top up amount, but not amounts that would lead to problems if the owners leave, or distorting the market.

Are you trying to claim that financial doping to the point where City have won the majority of league titles over the last 15 years is fair to the clubs playing by the rules? City cheated to be in their current position. It's all a sham. It's about adhering to the same rules that everyone else is. 🙄

That's not their fault though. They didn't set the price. I don't agree with the assessment of Wirtz anyway. He had a slow start last season (for understandable reasons), but he has been fine this season. The team is still gelling, so sometimes things don't work perfectly. Barcola has just arrived.

🙄 They didn't cheat to generate the funds. It's not the same at all. 🙄 #cheats

It means that they can blame them for everything, just because we paid a lot of money for them. It's pathetic. We played well yesterday, right up until Kavanagh decided that he needed to help City with a dodgy 2nd yellow (the 1st was ridiculous too). The result doesn't reflect how we played at all.

Fiona Phelan @hansenisagod.bsky.social · 9h

Exactly. The first one shouldn't have been a yellow card either. ☹️

Fiona Phelan @hansenisagod.bsky.social · 9h

That's roughly what I saw yesterday. Kavanagh was a disgrace.

I keep thinking about City’s attitude yesterday & I really hope their arrogance and lack of contrition is taken into account when sanctions are finally given. You can argue the players on the pitch blah blah but unfortunately for them every single one of them is complicit. Those titles mean nothing

I can’t get this out of my head. The way Koumas was tossed and manhandled all match, all above board, only for yellows to be thrown at our players for the most minor of bumps should be a fucking scandal.

The ‘statement’ is ‘we cheated for years to get the money and status to allow us to attract all the best players’.

Man City cruise to statement win over 10-man Liverpool. The cheats.

They also remain the only side found guilty of financial doping, and 114 charges too. Somewhat more important than this nothing game and record.

It obviously helps when they've been cheating to have such a deep squad, not to mention the ref being their 12th man. 🙄

They were fairly shameless with their celebrations at the end. ☹️ Anyone would have thought that they'd won a trophy honestly. 😠🙄

That isn't even true. Until the dodgy 2 yellows for Gravenberch, we were playing well and were probably the better side (despite the missing first team players). The only thing we were lacking was clinical finishing. The dodgy sending off changed everything.

Sky going on about what a player doku is. Yes. He was on the bench because they been able to spend £900m more than they should.

The first one should have been checked too. The problem is the people doing the reviewing are as bad as their mate on the pitch. 😠🙄

I, for one, am delighted that Chris Kavanagh is happy to allow their defenders to repeatedly drag Lewis Koumas to the ground without any free-kicks going against them, but send Ryan Gravenberch off for two none fouls. Definitely not a bent Manc bastard at all.

No idea why Sky are so excited. Until the punishments are handed down the season means nothing. The game is a farce now, the League table a nonsense because there’s no competitive football till this has been resolved. No one will end today with points so why bother? We might as well wait till August

I don’t think a referee from a city featuring one of the teams is right in any game, never mind this one #LFC

In the midst of the biggest cheating scandal English football has seen. The PL and PGMOL select a Mancunian to referee a match involving the cheating Mancunian team. The Mancunian ref then makes a string of contentious decisions that gift the match to the cheating Mancunian team . Good process boys.

He (and the linesmen) ignored 95% of the wrestling by their players. He then took the opportunity to give 2 soft yellows against Gravenberch. It completely changed the game. ☹️ We had looked really good up to that point, although we need to be more clinical and take our chances. 3-0 flatters them. 😠

Christ (whether real or not) was a man who looked after the poor and refugees, which bit of his teachings attracted them to the religion apart from its not Islam whose followers are foreign and brown? Answered my own question there!

It would probably have to be restricted to specific buildings in Rome though, as there are so many of them that it could get a bit confusing. 😁

That's great. I have some Italian guidebooks where they include an image of how things probably looked, to overlay on a photo of the current remains. That works quite well, but this is even better. #history

Regardless of anything else surrounding the game, we should obviously be trying to win. Even if it were only a friendly, that should be the aim. #LFC Let's beat the cheats.
