Do not, I repeat, do not quote Harry Hotspur. He doesn't know a thing. :)
We've been hearing most of these rumors as the shit hit the fan with Corluka this weekend. I've even heard that one of the board members had to pay wages with his own money.
I will say, the one thing that City can do immediately is sell Micah. That would get them 20-30 million and that would all be profit. That might spell them for a little while.
So as much as I am fair and balanced when it comes to the Bundesliga, as a Spurs man, I must admit that I will probably treat HSV with a tad bit too much respect this year. Remind me if I get too out of hand.
The blogosphere is infested with Scousers waiting to jump on anything that doesn't trumpet their club as anti-Liverpool. Don't let it get you down Paul. Ignore them as they will never go away. Keep writing and don't let those communists take away your right to air your voice.
As for Keane, that story is well known to have been made up by the Communists to unsettle another club that threatens their only source of income: UCL. They have tried to unsettle Villa and Pompey too. But clubs aren't falling for it.
