Pinching myself to be hosting the Full-time fallout on @talkSPORT this season.

Give me a call tomorrow 03717223344.
Thoroughly enjoyed spending three hours chatting/debating football with these two gents @Darren_Lewis5 @talkSPORT

50 REAL MADRID GOALS FOR JUDE BELLINGHAM! 🤍🌟
That's one more than Zinedine Zidane managed for Los Blancos, in 76 FEWER games 🤯
Mac Allister’s behaviour here is shameless.
Wet as an otter’s pocket.
Where have the strong, competitive warrior-like players all gone?
Have a bit of pride for your club, your fans, yourself and stand your ground.
This clumsy entitlement by Carragher is why people are increasingly bored of the Premier League.
The ladder’s been pulled up, and we all know it.
But to bring legal action against him, is absolutely embarrassing.
Grow up, it’s his honest opinion.
Get over it.
Instead, continue proving the narrow minded masses wrong, and keep winning stuff, #avfc

😫 "We're much better than the points we've got!"
@MaxBScott cannot believe #NFFC fans are questioning Glasner's future at the club already! 😳

Another game where #nffc are left ruing missed chances. Whether it’s Wood, Delap, Murillo..
But I haven’t come away from that feeling pessimistic about the future. Not by any stretch of the imagination.
We were organised, cohesive, created enough chances to get something from the game.. and limited the champions to just one shot on target.
I thought Delap was fantastic, bar a goal. A constant nuisance and a real force going forward for us, winning aerial duels and beating defenders.
Macatee continues to shine. Diomande looks fitter. Hudson-Odoi a threat off the bench.
Yes, psychologically it’s never nice being in the bottom 3, but the players are to blame for not being clinical enough.
Despite that, I still see the ingredients of what can become a real strong side.

Me and @maxbscott talked a lot about #mufc on the @talkSPORT Daily, and I got annoyed on behalf of United fans. How an enormous football entity sunk to a level where there are “positives to take” from a Champions League loss at Spain’s third-best club?

OPINION: Best five football stadiums in UK as Loftus Road included but no Anfield | @maxbscott
talksport.com/football/46282…
Excellent reporting from @JacobsBen who broke this story.
Long read but well worth it. Exposing some significant contradictions in City’s ‘irrefutable evidence’
Manchester City will argue the so-called 'tagged' sponsorship payments (totalling £830m) came from the Abu Dhabi Government not their owner (ADUG). This applies to State-controlled entities such as Etihad and Etisalat. Yet Etihad has previously refuted AD Government funding as "false".
City can point to an internal report written for the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi in 2010 which concluded the Abu Dhabi Government did indeed cover the sponsorship of Manchester City. The report was not intended for external publication.
In their UEFA case, City denied the Etihad (or any other) sponsorship funds came from any other source other than a direct payment. Sheikh Mansour provided a letter which read: "I have not authorised ADUG to make any payments to Etihad, Etisalat or any of their affiliates in relation to their sponsorship of MCFC."
In 2015, the 'Partnership for Open and Fair Skies' wrote to the US departments of Commerce, Transportation and State arguing Etihad gained a competitive advantage due to receiving huge sums from the Abu Dhabi Government. They allude to the internal report referenced above, which appears to confirm this.
Yet Etihad's response was: "The assertion that the Abu Dhabi Government paid for Etihad’s sponsorship of English Premier League football club Manchester City is equally false.
"In 2011 Etihad and Manchester City entered into a 10-year sponsorship agreement, which included naming rights for Manchester City’s stadium. Etihad funded this sponsorship from its own liquidity. It is not uncommon for airlines to have sponsorships with sports teams and their venues."
Etihad's denial the Abu Dhabi Government helped pay for their sponsorship goes against City's core argument, according to the verdict, that "AD Sponsors had from time to time applied for financial assistance from the AD Government towards their liability to pay the Recorded Sponsorship Fees."
Due to redacted names, multiple sponsors, and the phrase 'from time to time', City could make a case for other sponsors, but Etihad's on-record denial doesn't help the club's position, according to multiple legal sources spoken to.
Worth also reiterating, the panel, having reviewed the evidence already provided, already concluded any notion the Abu Dhabi Government not ADUG paid the tagged sums was "concocted well after the event".

Pep Guardiola speaking as if he’s some sort of omnipresent ethereal spirit.
I want every single @ManCity fan to know I am here; more than ever. I am, always have been, always will, be behind my club, my owner, my chairman, Ferran, the players, staff, Enzo and you, our unique supporters.
Let me be clear: we will get through this together.
I love you all 🩵
