Didnt Ronaldo say the same broken tiles in the swimming pool still hadnt been fixed 12 years later when he came back or something to that affect? You'd want the likes of him and Roy Keane in there to lift standards and give those wasters a kick up the hole

Not at all - 'tis not I engaging in empty rhetoric. Whether you call it plantation, colonisation, large-scale immigration, or massive demographic change, it still amounts to a bad deal for the host society. I actually think you're being deliberately evasive, but whatever.

Padraic Henry Pearse must be turning in his grave.

Good night.

from the poster  who brought us this..

And now you label anyone who wants national borders and sovereignty upheld a fascist? You don't really have a clue what fascism is, do you

?

No, I'm drawing a line between periods of large-scale immigration. Simple as that. You're trying to put words in my mouth. You may want to engage in semantics, but my point was that massive demographic change is not good for the host society in the long run.

You're not so bad at it yourself, Mr Plantation.

Drive through any medium size town in Ireland today. Who are standing on the streets? They're are either immigrants or Irish fellas who have seriously over done on the sunbeds... Keady, Armagh, Ballybay, Newtown, Dungannon etc etc...

Who made the decision on the staff? was it Ratcliffe (minority share holder) or the Glazers (majority) that  stopped Betsy from getting her husband a ticket and charged her £20 quid for the bus to Wembley?

Personally I think they have done them a favour and saved them a horrible day out

I don't know, maybe the "Operations Manager"?

Favour or not, not every year you make a cup final and I'm sure a jolly to London, a bed for the night and a match ticket is a really really big deal for ordinary folk on minimum to average industrial wage.

It's certainly the last two years in a row.

So it's not Ratcliffe but the operations manager?

I've a friend who's daughter dates somebody who's a marketing manager at City, he gets the same wage that he got in his last marketing job.

Just because they are loaded, people get paid to do a job, not overpaid, and yes him and his girlfriend are heading to Wembley, mainly because City can't fill their own stadium 

Exactly what part of Jim Radcliffe and having full operational control is it that you're having difficulty understanding.

Is being tedious something you have to work very hard at or does it just come natural.

Ratcliffe is in control of football operations with his 27.7 per cent ownership

I'd say that's his main focus but maybe you're right. The Glazers have no control left and Ratcliffe is ensuring Betsy is dishing out curry dishes somewhere else if she's not happy. 

On a serious note, most of the reports I've seen, the place was badly run and things are changing route and branch.
