FFS we lose to Sportswash City on Sat and at home to
EPL Champs the week before and suddenly the system is a problem. Don’t remember you questioning “the system” last year.
It’s stuff like this that reminds me why I hate modern football but love NCFC. Extreme terms I agree but it’s an extreme situation. Take the other crap being thrown our way after Saturday. You have utterly ignorant ‘pundits’ questioning us and our way forward as a club but Man City funded by Abu Dhabi and accused by the likes of Amnesty International of using MCFC to ‘Sportswash’ their image over issues such as poor human rights. A club still under investigation for violation of FFP and they’re fawned over by said ‘pundits’! No, the problem with the current EPL, is not the EPL itself who allows dubious foreign ownership, not Man City and it’s absurd transfer budget but US. And because if this, most supporters just believe that the answer to the game is simply to find yourself a said dubious foreign owner and spend, spend, spend!
Sorry Highlander second part of rant not aimed at you but first part most certainly is.
