Media coverage 2018/19

[levets]

I'm afraid to have to say as a Gooner, I do prefer Anfield to City. More compact, intense and better viewing for the away fan. Sorry!

Better viewing? You’ve never been at the back of the away end then. Absolute shit hole.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

What a bizarre article. Never seen anything like that before.

Bizarrely one sided. Look how many points they've gained from blatantly wrong decisions. How far was Jimmy Milner offside against West Ham ffs. There's 3 points right there. Then you have numerous Salad dives for non-penalties that were given.

I recon they are well in credit with the dodgy decision count.

Quote in Independent this morning, " Number of times City have won the European Cup over their 124 year history , nil." I didn't realise there was European competition back then.

West Ham v Liverpool was 1-1

Not a mention of Milner offside v West Ham or the pen they got against Brighton tho .

Or the Roberson handball against Crystal Palace.

Or the Roberson handball against Crystal Palace.

Or the incorrect offside call against Fulham, followed by them taking a free kick with a moving ball before half the Fulham team had seen the flag, passing to an offside player and scoring.

They've clearly been robbed this season.

Or the pen Spurs were refused at Wembley against them

On top of others mentioned above:
Very soft penalty for win at Palace, blatant penalty for Watford at Watford denied when 0-0, 0-0 at Bournemouth when Salah scores another offside. Think Brighton and Huddersfield had penalty appeals refused also.
Penalty v Newcastle for over the top dive v Salah, 2 penalties against us at Anfield before we finally got one, penalty against us at Ethiad . Pathetic penalties v Arsenal for non contact yet the 1 genuine penalty for Arsenal not give. Even Paddy Power took the piss out of that.
Salah avoiding ban for blatant diving as FA decided his unnatural backwards dive v Newcastle did not meet the threshold for a diving charge

The countless cards they haven't been given and the suspensions that would have resulted. Mané alone is due about 4 straight reds.

I've done some digging. It would appear so.

Just goes to show how many local papers aren't local anymore.

Yeah, I realised after I'd posted it.

But, but, but the rent-a-gobshite rag and red scouse murderer pundits continually tell everyone that these things even out over the duration of a season...

...do they fuck.

More importantly as we saw from the Mané red last season, the media have made it clear that if you send off one of their players, no matter how well deserved, you'll get grief.

I particularly liked this response in the comments from journolud:

“This is an excellent, very thorough, almost forensic piece of research which proves beyond doubt that Liverpool are the victims of some rough justice. Well done to the journo and to the daily Mirror for keeping the traditions of John Pilger and Paul Foot alive.”

Why thank you very much :-)

Aye.

Funny that they are not saying anything about Crewe doing fuck all for their Lleged victims.

Better viewing? You’ve obviously never been anywhere near the away section at fucking Anfield.

Is that Pete Doherty to the left?

 

[Mraitch]

Went on the BBC home page at 1700.

One of the sports headlines is “I would love to see Atletico in the final”

No mention that City were even playing.
