i'd like to listen to me david bowie greatest hits compilation.. but someone still has it 2 years after they borrowed it.

something for penney to read and think about... "Since I took the job our play has been marked by brave, attacking football. Sometimes we've been bold and, occasionally, I think we've played audaciously. It's a philosophy of football. Win or lose I want us to show who we are and what kind of football we believe in. I want my team to go out and be themselves. Those of us lucky enough to work at this level in our profession must never forget that it's only a sport. We live in a world where everything is spiralling in cost and many people need to make a big sacrifice in order to go and watch a game of football. So for me it all makes sense, the effort, the work, the planning, the concentration and the discipline, if you do it for the people. The manner in which we play is a demonstration of the respect we have for the people who pay for a ticket or pay money to watch matches on television." Pep Guardiola

i thought every game oldham athletic play, is a must win game..thats the soddin point of football-to win! if its not, we may as well all give up now.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8592317.stm just love it! no mincing about with words..right to the point!

its close isn't it! dearest ticket i've ever bought -£91 for el classico -face value...worth it? course! we won 2-0 !! applied for a champs league final ticket-cheapest is 90€ + handling charge of 20€ ..its thoses little "extra payments" that piss me off. but the whole point here is if you consider the price of your ticket..latics/barca/whoever is value,you will pay-no matter what. latics isn't value for money at the moment...its dull.

my ticket for the arsenal v barca game on wednesday has cost me £52. only 2,300 tickets available. you pay what you think is value for money.

3rd party or fully comp?

its getting all very persil now...

have they realised,to get a "marquee" player they have to pay "marquee" fees? don't believe the hype.

'tis! 1 was 8 months old then! great find...shame there isn't more old latics match of the day / kick off programs knocking about.

i'm struggling to see the point in it too... anyone want to enlighten me?

FC United, the Manchester United fans' breakaway club, has announced plans to build a new 5,000-capacity stadium costing about £3.5m. The club said it hoped the council would contribute £650,000 towards its new home in Newton Heath. Manchester City Council said it was considering funding options but had no defined figures. Andy Walsh, FC United's general manager, said the new base would be "at the heart of the community". "What we're hoping to do is develop a modest 5,000-capacity ground with community facilities, a new astro-turf pitch, refurbished sports, a community room to be used by people in the local area and offer other sporting opportunities on the site," he said. 'Truly community-based' Manchester City Council leader Sir Richard Leese added that the club did a "fantastic job" within the community.

same at latics.

i know,they know. Been very quiet haven't they?

i await TTA/club official announcement regarding this with interest.

done that..i'm assuming they just accept you when it starts?

no,but i'd like an invite!

well the PL always said no. but now its changed.

sorry,but this stinks to high heaven. one rule for one,one for the other. this will end up in court.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...uth/8585099.stm

POP!

info from barry. i'm talking about investment on the field...as all are here. like i say..they stand to gain more financially by staying put then asking for others to come on board. whats their priority now? staying up and getting a team fit to challenge next season or moving to failsworth? .." much as you wouldn't actively look to sell your house if you still wanted to live in it." but wouldn't you be looking to sell if you had a problem/no longer wanted to finance it?

and another... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/8578709.stm

they have said they are not ACTIVELY looking for outside investment or selling the club. they want to "see the job through"... business is business.

if i can still walk!
