The fact that most clubs would rather see ye win the league over their rivals winning it says it all. It will be so much better when they are gone
Genuine question to Rival fans. Would you enjoy watching the Premier League without Manchester City in it?

American bastardisation of the sport along with the shitty half time show. Fuck off #usa #twats
FIFA has decided to award the winners of the 2026 World Cup with championship rings for the very first time. The custom is usually associated with American sports like the NFL and NBA 💍 30 rings will be made available to the world champions, with a further 1,996 rings going on sale to fans.

Unlucky England, but well done on reaching the semi final after playing, Panama, Ghana, Croatia, Congo, Mexico and Norway after qualifying from a group with Albania, Serbia, Latvia and Andorra 👏

🚨 Michael Carrick on fielding a strong team vs Brighton: 🗣️ Reporter: “There’s nothing left to play for. A lot of people were surprised by such a strong lineup.” 🗣️ Carrick: “And that mentality right there is exactly why some clubs never become elite. What do you mean there’s nothing to play for? This is Manchester United. Since when did we start celebrating third place like it’s a trophy? If I can score 10 against Brighton, I will. Happily. Not because I hate them… but because we don’t relax here. Even at 3-0, you go for the fourth. Then the fifth. Then the sixth. We’ve picked up the most points in the league since I took charge… and I don’t plan on dropping that standard. Next season, people will understand what we’re building.”
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Michael Carrick did not say this; it is satire from an account whose bio reads "Football fiction & satire only | Pure banter for laughs | Don’t believe a word." x.com/ChinoUTD youtube.com/watch?v=LJKVRJ…
