Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 13/10/2026I’d be pissed off if that was ruled out for us 240
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 13/10/2026As an example, I used this to good effect when messaging my sister on the afternoon Sajid Javid and Rishi Sunak resigned within minutes from Boris Johnson’s government. 000
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 13/10/2026‘What a morning for DeFreitas’ is used in my family to proclaim great excitement and/or a great event. Taken from Richie Benaud’a commentary in 1991 of Eng v WI - ‘what a morning for DeFreitas, even if nothing else happens to him, he’s broken through twice in the first over’ 120
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 11/10/2026When United were champions of Europe, the anti-Glazer green and gold campaign was in full flight. City’s fans are singing songs about being in love with Khaldoon. The difference between a club who can win despite their owners and one that can’t win without. The hollowest of crowns. 1154

Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Everyone needs to remember that at the moment, the 0-3 scoreline is just an opinion and we cannot comment on the result until the full appeal is heard. 050
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Thank you - must admit surprised I didn’t get a sausage until your reply! 010
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Fuck me, I know city have had a rough few weeks, but trying to replace Enzo Maresca with Jamie Jackson and hoping no one notices is a new low. 130
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 05/10/2026City, even after the past 15 years, don’t have anywhere near the global or national support of the other biggest clubs. Honestly don’t think it has any impact for the league’s PR if they weren’t there (and in a way, it freeing up a CL space for a Spurs, United, Villa etc. might be a benefit). 171
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The Juve point is particularly relevant - my understanding has always been that Juve are the most popular (and most loathed) club across Italy (in effect, the Man Utd of Italy). The PL would only have a popularity issue if United and probably Liverpool were taken out IMO. 120
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026If Croatia are anything like city they’ll just dismiss the result as England’s ‘opinion’ 092
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I do get it - No one gives a fuck about city, just like no one gives a fuck about Chelsea. I’ve always seen Chelsea as a get out of jail free card. I’ve wanted city to win titles over Liverpool as the latters success is genuine. Now everything is out in the open, I think that feeling has changed. 040
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026It’ll get dismissed as sour grapes and people are generally fine with it because United dominated to such an extent under Ferguson, but it’s an absolute shitshow that it can happen. (rant ends) 120
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Final thought - I think fans of other clubs have every right to be fucking furious about this. United fans particularly do - nearly two decades of having our club have one arm tied behind their back due to the Glazers, whilst their city rivals are given a huge artificial advantage. It’s mental. 150
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026… having a go at city fans for turning a blind eye to it, I think that’s pretty normal for a football fan to do and I reckon (and in fact am pretty certain) I would have done the same. But now, when the cat is out of the bag, don’t be having this ‘oh but poor city fans’ narrative. The game is up. 130
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026… fans of a whole host of clubs and knowing that city were able to do it because they were cheating. And we did know what was going on, you just didn’t think it would be acknowledged - any city fan who is shocked at this is either thick or turned a blind eye to it. To be honest, I’m not actually… 150
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 03/10/2026This whole ‘poor city fans’ thing you see everywhere is increasingly pissing me off. How about feeling sorry for fans of all the other clubs who have been completely fucked over by city. Of one of many examples, look at the state of Leicester now. 18 years of having moments taken away from… 290
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 02/10/2026That’s what I mean tbh, until now it’s felt like it would be reasonable to assume that UAE’s political influence could bury this story. When something snowballs into public consciousness this much, things can change quickly. Starting to wonder if, remarkably, they’ve overplayed their hand. 120
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Wonder if at some point, things switch from the UAE being able to pressure the UK to do city favours, to the UK having to ask the UAE whether their interest in city is more important than their ties with the UK (as the story is getting so big there is nothing that can be done to ‘save’ city)? 332
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Ross Kemp is inadvertently hilarious. Can’t see past his extras character. The image of him in a sailors hat reminded me of something and I’ve just realised what it is. 101
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Heard a bit about how furious city are that the PL leaked the outcome. They’re going to be even more furious now that the PL are seemingly leaking what city’s appeal is going to be based on even though presumably no one outside city could actually know this yet 🤔 120
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Still seeing people this week argue that ‘yeah but no one could ever win the league if their owners didn’t fund them like that’. Two words. Leicester City. Two more words. Fuck off. 121
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Erm… city pointing out it was the government not the owners funding them makes a mockery of the ownership set up which (if I’m right) was done to show they are not state backed. How does pointing out they are state backed helped them? What a crock of shit. Honestly, fuck the fuck off. 081
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Burnham has massively misread the room with those comments. Thankfully I think it makes his ability to help city’s owners more difficult - if he’d wanted to do that he’d have been better being non-committal publicly and putting pressure on behind the scenes. He’ll now get pelters from all quarters. 131
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Just seen this on a forum - The Poznan is actually perfect symbolically for the City fans now. Celebration while not looking at whats actually going on 🤌🏻 382
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Not a fan of AI slop but please can someone do an AI of pep standing up and saying to the likes of Klopp, Ferguson, Wenger etc ‘I’ve had an amazing time, it’s been SO much fun… I have and always have been… a TRAITOR!’ 001
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Just realised this may have been a rhetorical question! 😐 100
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 29/09/2026£800m+ of sham reporting? The detail of the verdict is far, far worse than I was expecting or I think anyone could have expected. I can’t see how they can stay in the league or their current owners be allowed to retain ownership. 000
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I’m expecting them to be booted out of the entire football league after the detail of that verdict today 100
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It would be kind of fitting if the last Manchester derby at Old Trafford for a generation was won by city scoring a goal that shouldn’t have stood 180
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 29/09/2026From now on when people ask me the best thing I’ve read, they’re going to be disappointed with what I suggest. 050
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 26/09/2026One of the punishments for city’s 114 charges should be a lifetime ban on Sam Matterface commentating. I know the two aren’t connected but fuck me, something has to be done about it. 170
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Ultimately, city became everything their fans used to hate United for (huge global money obsessed brand) with none of the redeeming features. They can dress it up however they want but United fans have known this for the past 18 years. Feels today like the rest of the football world has caught up. 081
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I see Chelsea are taking the scenic route to challenging for the title. Honestly, aside from Arsenal and (albeit to a lesser extent) City, I suspect this season is going to be very unpredictable. 030
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Maybe the loudest I’ve heard the stretford end jeer a team off. Which is a bit harsh really but that was fucking woeful. 041
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 16/09/2026That was terrible. Heaven and Mazraoui the main culprits, every goal down their side. Not good. 020
Karate Jesus @karatejesus44.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Like that team, Carrick will be damned if he does or doesn’t if they don’t win tonight (as in should’ve played full strength or should’ve tried some of the squad players). I’d have gone similar to that side though. Tielemans captain is interesting. 250
