Yeah, we had a lot of neo-nazis among our fans in the 80ies, Schalke too. The downfall of the mining/steel industry left a lot of ppl. disenfranchised/unemployed and that's what happens.
You've had similar shit in England too. You have similar shit in Italy/Spain and more so Eastern Europe.
Now it's just individuals who can't even proclaim complete messages and therefore have to resort to acronyms (that's why most of the ppl. around him didn't get it and helped holding his banner).
Now he'll be banned for life from stadiums in Germany. Congrats, lol

It's great the club and authorities have cero tolerance with that kind of acts, tho!
 
Apparently one of those 3 clubs in for Berbatov is Spurs.

I hope City sign Walcott - I'm expecting them to sign some players this week. If Walcott is one of them I'm cool with that, he's okay but not special.
 
Berba news is promising.

Curse Tottenham Hotspur. A midfield three of Sigurdsson, Sandro and Dembele would be class, even disregarding M'Vila.
 
Benfica apparently won't budge on Garcia beyond his buyout clause.. that was the word anyway. Hopefully we pony up and get either him or Martinez.. something has to give.
 
Are City in line to fail FFP?

I guess that's the reason why they aren't buying like crazy anymore.

I think the club are aware of FFP. But although city have made big losses the past two years has overshadowed actually how much the financial results improved in terms of commercial income. I think it was like a 60% increase year on year.

The new CEO turned Barca's finances around in 5 years when he was there. He'll do the same with us. City are always signing new sponsorships these days.

Don't worry, FFP, no problems for City - especially now the TV rights has shot through the roof.

If you ask me what clubs are more in line to fail FFP I'd say it's the Spanish ones. Maybe not the big two but the rest are in a mess considering La Liga is virtually bankrupt.

Acoording to Duncan Castles, RVP should already be a City player. He isn't the most reliable when it comes to tansfers.
 
dc knocked this one out of the park.

No one else seems impressed with it. Thanks man!!!

Who would you dread City signing this window.

Inb4 Messi or Ronaldo, lets be more realistic.

The fee is in the region of 37m euros and Falcao will earn around 160k a week #CFC

Keith McGrath ‏@KeithMcGrath62
The signing of Falcao has completed the summer signings for #Chelsea and it is believed the player will wear the number 20 shirt

Football Agent ‏@agent_153
Discussions earlier this evening were successful and #CFC have just agreed a fee to sign #Falcao!!! Should be on #SSN within the hour

Football Agent ‏@FootballAgent49
Falcao will meet his new Chelsea team mates at Cobham tomorrow and will wear the number 20 shirt

Football Agent ‏@FootballAgent49
Abramovich sees Falcao as being a world class striker and the final piece of the jigsaw, Chelsea's business is now complete

Football Agent ‏@FootballAgent49
The Falcao deal was finalised early this evening after #CFC met Atletico's valuation

Football Agent ‏@FootballAgent49
#CFC have 100% completed the signing of #Falcao. DONE DEAL
:lol

Wonder what sanctions they'll be placed under.

Chelsea presumably have much more to worry about given their free-spending.. especially if they did indeed go after Falcao.

The Swiss Ramble did a piece last December about City and FFP and said passing it should be attainable. City have been pretty good with money since then, won the league and increased revenue and have continued to add sponsors. I think it'll be a non-issue.

Basically the players you haven't been able to get yet.

Agger, wouldn't "dread" it but he is a good defender obv. Hazard, RVP, Martinez, De Rossi, Javi Garcia...those are all class players i'm glad City didn't manage to sign (yet!).

App City are willing to pay the buyout clause for Martinez but he's holding out for Bayern.
 
If the lyrics said Sahin is a Turk I would not object.



Fine by me, I just wanted to point out the fact.
One of the more creative songs in Germany in the past seasons was
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6J89d5Mqa-w

In 2010 Freiburg player Mohamadou Idrissou said this in the dressing room: "I don't feel like playing with you loosers against relegation anymore. Next year I'm playing in the CL!"

So the fans went:
Idrissou plays Champions League
On PS3
The whooole night
From 12 to 8

(it rhymes in German)
And Idrissou is now in Kaiserslautern, in second division. Still playing CL on PS3, lol
Hahahaha this is brilliant. Nice one for sharing, love things like this.
What's this Falcao to Chelsea stuff just twitter guff?
Blatant bullshit. We established last night that he's far too expensive at the moment, even for a club like Chelsea. He'll be 27 next summer, and he'll have been at Atletico for two years, I expect both him and Cavani to make big moves then.

Might have to put that 'best midfield in the world' chant on hold, that's a formidable trio.
 
Club you support:

Looking forward to the transfer window shutting, all things considered?: Y/N

Manchester United

Yes
.

Although Dembele would make a great addition but it's all cool, just need Carrick back in midfield and a proper CB at the back. Preferably Smalling or Rio.
 
They only have Torres and Sturridge, that's not enough. Especially since Sturridge apparently wants out. Top clubs have 4 good strikers.

I can't think of a club with 4 good strikers in modern football, just Manchester United. You're pretty much set to go with 2 strikers and some CAM or young striker as emergency backup.
 
Wait so, who's Dembele going to? If its up to the player to decide, didn't he say he wanted to play for a big club with CL football.
 
Acoording to Duncan Castles, RVP should already be a City player. He isn't the most reliable when it comes to tansfers.

Didn't he say Van Persie's agent had outlined a contract with City? I think it was reported a few places (£225k) but Van Persie decided to join United instead.
