I'm currently engaged with a (currently) mate who follows city (and has done for 25+ years, in fairness) about their blatant cheating and why that should render their success meaningless, as it's been more inevitable than impressive, when you don't have to play by the same rules as everybody else...
Anyway, his only retort is the old 'You're cheating too - Everybody is. We're just the only team to get caught' line. Coming from a brilliant lawyer, this shite frustrates me beyond words.
My question is this: We've never been accused of any kind of cheating or corruption, have we? Even back in the 70s and 80s, when we ruled the world..? I'm 99% certain that there's no financial skeletons in our closet, but just want to make sure that I'm not forgetting anything...
