Just tuned in and heard the usual total dis-regard for wolves. Whenever they are talking about another twist in the race it is always (as just spouted by the prick saunders) what if brighton get a goal and hang on, whilst salah gets a hat-trick !!

Tell you what I really hope Nuno Santo and Wolves are listening to all this because they are being dismissed as nothing but cannon-fodder on Sunday

Wolves will be bang up for it mate. Nuno is a winner and wants his side to challenge the big boys and prove this season was the start of a special era for the club. Their fans will also make a racket and want to spoil their chances. They play the perfect way to beat Liverpool. Wing backs who can stop the dippers full backs playing balls forward. Quality central midfielders who can cope with the Liverpool press and talented forwards who can run in behind or drop deep. Will be a great game and with the pressure on it will not be easy. Wolves have nothing to lose but a lot of quality. And they will as fans want to do us a favour so we repay them by beating Watford in the Cup final. Not that we need an incentive.

Just had the misfortune to switch on and hear that Scottish bloke who does transfer deadline day (White?). They're talking about whether Pep's right that the media are biased & want a Liverpool win. So they're asking various journalists for an opinion. Their opinion is a bit predictable.

The thing is it doesn't matter what their opinions are, it's what they print and say on the TV and radio on a regular basis that counts. And it has been unrelenting pro-dipper propaganda. Apparently the dippers have done it the 'right' way. By spending 1/4 billion last year alone on players and having a wage bill second only to the rags whilst simultaneously cheating in every game they play. If that's the 'right' way God alone knows what the 'wrong' way is. Perhaps not loading debt up against the club by the owners?
 
TalkSport tweeted Guardiola's comment about media bias, and virtually every comment or retweet agreed with him. The only dissenters were Liverpool fans, and predictably journalists like White and Darren Lewis last night. They only have to look at their own Twitter feed to see the truth.

You're lucky you didn't listen to the previous hour. I tuned in as I was under the mistaken impression they would at least have to pay lip service to discussing our game and Vinny's goal, with maybe a City related guest interview. I was wrong. Tedious discussion about the fitness levels of the United team interspersed with Liverpool previews of famous European nights etc. etc. The only mention was Dean Saunders asking Neil Mellor how disappointed he felt! They've totally given up even pretending to be balanced.

You will be relieved to know Jim White has totally refuted any accusations of scouse bias.
 
I want it to carry on because they're really shooting themselves in the foot. Everyone can see, hear and read what's going on. It's turning all the neutrals against the dippers and the more they all bleat on " love us, love us, why don't you love us? City are the cash doped villains here, we're football royalty" the more other football fans get their backs up.

Darren Lewis the Liverpool fan?
 
HAd it on the way to work this morning , thought I’d have a listen , was just Saunders saying how Halifax are fitter and can press like Barcelona !

Best bit for me was a United fan came on said he was taking rubbish but started the call with “ what about that Kompany goal hey Dean “” haha silence , he then followed it up with how he celebrated it.... class

That's the one. He was ridiculing the notion that the media in general were supporting Liverpool by stating that individual journalists supported other clubs. Goldstein was having none of it though. He agreed that Liverpool were definitely favoured this season.
 
No one really likes the integrity of their industry being questioned, which is why all the media are so defensive about this issue of bias, but I do know a few (not football) journalists, and the one thing that always leaves them completely non-plussed is when it's pointed out to them that they are not the best placed people to discern whether there is groupthink and bias. It's always like introducing a new subject to someone.

His comments properly touched a nerve with a lot of them. There was some bloke from the New York Times having a proper rant about it on Twitter. The haven't been this worked up since Raheem pointed out their racism. But they couldn't argue against that one, because that would have made them seem like racists even more.

For the record, I have no problem with the integrity of my industry being questioned. I regularly do it myself. Perhaps it's just the journalists who think that he might have been talking about them.
