Mcfc Confirms Lampard Staying In Manchester For The Season

[BxLio91]

Tbf Mr.E has been one of the few Mancs who have tried to look at it somewhat objectively even though its way more here than on BM.

This is a NYCFC forum, and should contain constructive discussion about NYCFC....
If you want to bring the level of conversation down to intimidating Man City fans who want NYCFC to succeed, why do it here and antagonise other NYCFC fans..... Come over to Blue Moon, lets play there.

Oooh believe me, I tried, you're not accepting new members...

Gentlemen and ladies, do we really have to start this inquisition?

There are obvious trolls throughout various threads but many are abusing "founding" members of the forum.

Don't let frustration and disappointment undermine what NYCFC_Dan and others have built.

Thank You BxLio91
I am here because I am genuinely interested in NYCFC, and am happy to try to follow them. I understand New Yorks disappointment.

You are quite right, I don't see Red Bulls being able to supply players to any team in the EPL, let alone the Second Team in Manchester.

Pretty incredible that RB had enough honor not to send Thierry Henry (who has scored as many PL goals in half the games as Lampard) to their German club.

Can't believe I have to set the bar that low..but it is MCFC we are talking about here..

MrE is the source of the new members, since he reports back to blue moon with his incredible finds here.

It really is almost unthinkable that they'd pull this stunt on such a large and important market.

I just saw a tweet that said "MCFC need to know that they just torched their brand in the US"

Obviously very true. How could they be so incredibly stupid?

Brand 101. I just don't understand how normally adept managers have done something so stupid. MP was doing his job as a manager but should have been told to shut up.

I really hope the powers that be are putting some serious effort right now into making a flurry of thoughtful moves to fill our roster with talented and exciting players to ease some of this disappointment and confusion. I wouldn't mind (and in fact think we deserve) an explanation and apology too but at this point I would hope to at least get the former. Looking forward to seeing where we are at a week from now. I would love to be able to say that this was a major misstep, but I love how the roster turned out, and don't give a blue fck whether Lampard ever comes to our incredible city.

 

[BossNYC]

You're not going to get an apology. Look at that tweet from NYCFC HQ after Lampard scored the goal. They're going with the "Isn't it exciting to have such an important player maybe coming to play with us one day?" angle.

They're spitting in our face and telling us we should enjoy it.

Would be cool if everyone in/near the supporter sections wore them and turned their back to the team on minutes ending in 8...a girl can dream can't she?

I've been pushing that myself. Definitely on board with this.

Dnigly I think you need to read some history. Germany was in reality beaten before you entered the war. Their codes were broken and resources limited. So you joined a winning team. Also who broke these German codes. Importantly the U.S. never declared war on anyone as both Japan and Germany did it first. Your declarations were moot. So really you were forced to enter the war. Historians argue whether the U.S. would have entered the war if Japan did not attack. Furthermore, everything you sent over was loaned. This loan was only relatively recently paid back. My granddad fought the Japanese and was part of the so called forgotten army. The only countries that took a risk and were not forced into the war by direct action were those of the British Empire. Treaties are just paper ask your own Native Americans. In fact most Polish don't like us as we took too long to help them. Some bars in Poland have signs on them saying no British. Interestingly The US has never won a war that did not involve the UK. Attacking small countries doesn't count. Even Canada kicked your ass when you tried to invade after US independence. You can thank the French for that victory. Why do you think New York has that lady in the harbour. Do not even get me on how you treated your vets after Vietnam. Get some knowledge and respect and get on topic.

The only thing worse than a fellow American who plays the "we won the war for you" card is an idiotic Brit who takes the time to type a response.

Both sides of the argument are ignorant and a slap in the face to the 800k combined American and Brits who died in the European theater. Almost equally split, by the way.

Good news: He was never actually a NYCFC player. No really, the whole NYCFC signed Frank Lampard thing really was a lie. He was signed by MCFC and they were going to loan him to NYCFC but he did so well he's now staying in MCFC.

Bad news: They're still talking about giving him to us after their season is over...

I'm now reading something that is confusing

Either a) if he isn't free for the May window, he can't join until sometime in July or b) if he isn't free for the May window, he can't join us this season

I wouldn't mind getting rid of 3 and 5.

Lampard is staying at mcfc because he wants to play in the Champions League and meaningful PL games. I dont believe for a second that management forced him to sign a contract extension that he didnt want to sign and that Frank isnt choosing MCFC over NYCFC. We arent going to hear anybody say it but our coaching staff and our team all know he chose to bail on the team

 

[NYCFCFan10]

Exactly. I have to believe every single party involved doesn't want Lampard at NY, now.

Perhaps the legal dept. do, or else it might reall be false advertisement if it isn't already....

 

[NYCFC_Dan]

MrE, master troll, allowed to be here with the rest of the "new members" while yellow cards are handed out to NYC fans who have to deal with this crap.

There is an ignore function. Use it. We've warned numerous users in the last week. By our own rules 3 warnings and you're temp banned and continuing to break rules and you're perm banned. Discussing a topic doesn't warrant a ban. Personally I don't understand what you guys keep coming back to this thread for. There's no substance and you're arguing in a circle.

 

[NYCFCFan10]

I got banned, permenantly, at Blue Moon after telling them we don't want Lampard and that they stole Lampard.

They're not too fond of things like truth and honesty over there.

 

[Midas Mulligan]

Pretty sure I'm only seeing about half the posts at this point since to me it doesn't even look circular. I just see some of our more passionate, if not always amicable, posters shouting through their keyboards.

Consider yourself lucky...the things I've seen over the past 36 hours...
