They do find a way to criticise us no matter what;

Against Burton we lacked class for scoring 9 yet we were responsible for a dour performance only scoring 1 v Watford.

We don’t make noise, we boo!

We are making football boring by dominating yet we aren’t a great team as we’ve never retained the league or won champs league.

It doesn’t matter what we do they’ll find a stick to beat us with & im all out of fucks to give until someone says it to my face & then I give it with both Barrells.

I’ve had a cock (Dipper) from Burton giving me shit & I asked him how many games in his life has he been too, it’s easy call the cnts out. For the record he told me 3 times but I know he’s exaggerating!
 
Journalists at yesterday's City press conference missed an potentially huge story which I am very surprised they did not follow up.

Pep's heart must have missed a beat when he heard it but thankfully they all missed it. The fact they didn't is really rather telling.

Exaggerating by how many games? 3 by any chance? ;)
 
To be fair, Kirsty Gallagher has been getting grief from all angles from fans of many different clubs. This has backfired on her spectacularly and all because she was piggy-backing off what some plastic fans were saying about us not selling out the semi-final. That female City fan tore her to fucking shreds and did it in the most articulate way possible.

Tell you something though - what I find more concerning is our very own Natalie Paweleck feeling that she couldn't announce that she wasn't going to the game on Saturday as she was expecting a backlash. Reading between the lines, I think she was talking about a backlash from some of our own fans of all people. It's one thing seeing these sad plastic ****s who purport to support other clubs having a pop at us but it's a fucking sad state of affairs if one of our own fans is worried about the reaction from fellow City fans.

Reactions: mat
they attack the fans they deserve what they get... It's a new low we're seeing now where the jealousy has surpassed attacking the owners, then the club, but now attacking as whole fanbase is too far.

We need to some serious boycotting as a fanbase, places like TS and nearly all of the rag-press need to be given the message that we hate them and will never buy their shite.

I dont buy the Mail or Times anymore, the pandering to the clickbait teams was too much. I listen to TS but only to see what the jealousy will focus on so I am ready for the shit storm.
 
Going to vent a little on the TV situation in Ireland.

For those of us here who don't have Sky or the terrestrial British channels (which to be fair is probably well under half the population) - then there is no Premier League football; and apart from League of Ireland, the only cub soccer is mid week Champions League.

For me this has been a bit of a problem - as the young lad wants to watch City, but the local channels would show Liverpool or Man U playing a Moldovan pub team in a second leg fixture where they where already 12-0 up from the first leg before they'd show City. Its because of all the middle aged fans that grew up when Ronnie Whelan / Roy Keane were the local idols. In this cohort, City probably have the same size fanbase as maybe Leeds or Aston Villa.

This year we have an interesting situation where the two main local channels - RTE and Virgin - are going head to head against each other on Champions league night. Don't know why.

So tonight - we have Liverpool vs Porto on RTE; and we have City vs Spurs on Virgin. it will be interesting to see which gets higher viewing. A lot of dads will want to watch Liverpool. A lot of kids will want to watch Spurs and City.

I would do a Raheem Sterling on it. Ignore them and make your statement by winning.

The guy is a role model in all sorts of ways.
 
The problem the media have now is that it's become a self-fulfilling prophecy. I'm sure it was true that the Liverpool and United articles got the most hits, but by pandering to it they've pushed others away, and so now even more than before its those two who drive the traffic. They're in a vicious circle where to keep the eyeballs on they have to do more and more, as fans of other clubs start ignoring them.

Obviously, this is fairly basic in terms of what was likely to happen, but it's a brave editor who is prepared to risk the bread and butter armchair red fans for what else is out there.

Serves them right too.

The viewing figures have already changed I reckon, looking at how many of our games have been screened this year and last even when head to head with the rats.

Agreed.
They dare not risk feeding their major subscriber base anything other than propaganda. Financial risk far too high.

Gone are the days of fair opinion by a respected journalist.
They now listen to their expensive research as to what they want hear/read and simply bias their offering accordingly.
 
Just watched the clip of kg on twitter. She is just one total silver-spooned muppet, layghing whilst the City fan is putting her point across and even the uneducated savage is laughing with her.

Fucking knob heads the whole lot. They cannot stand it that we are now in a position to win, they fail to understand the schedule issues, they fail to notice that even other clubs cannot fill a stadium and even if they do it is based on vast majority of overseas fans travelling

The best answer is to just keep on winning
 
Update on the gobby Gallagher situation.



Personally that doesn't let her off the hook as SHE hasn't apologized. She also retweeted some rag saying the Fulham game hadn't sold out, when someone posted the sold out sign to prove her wrong again. Bitch, end of.

Yes his apology doesn't wash with me, but at least he has tried to make one. Drunk driver Kirsty on the other hand.....

I actually quite like Savage. He talks shit but only because he’s a bit thick. He seems alright really, no harm.

Gallagher is a typical “let’s read social media to get my angle and ‘facts’[not facts] from” middle class clueless tart.

Anyone mentioned Rio Ferdinand to her?

Yes Savage is as you say just a bit dim, trying to be the jack the lad all the time.
