Exposing the hypocrisy of journalists

I’ve not watched the video but is it possible that these “crossed wires” are mainly down to Rabin being hounded by journos, etc, into revealing his identity, in particular that utter fucking weirdo McGeehan, and that in turn has led to him being worried about getting outed to the extent that this little episode has understandably got to him more than it perhaps would’ve done if all those ****s hadn’t been trolling him in the first place?

It does appear to be crossed wires mate and Rabin appears to be feeling under the cosh after his heroics putting a few dodgy journos in their place.
 
So Rabin has had a wobbly, got things wrong and accused City of secretly recording? I guess City TV then threatened to show the video of proof and that where the "blackmail" came from.

That's my guess looking at the whole thng. Unless City TV are making that whole story up

Dont know, not sure why everyone hates City fan tv, the abuse they get is a little ott. Never understood it but maybe I dont have the whole picture

What are the odds on Rabin being Ray from Man City Fan TV and it all being a PR stunt for the channel?

Having watched the YouTube explanation, I don't think it is. I think they're two different people.

They could just announce the interview following a bit of hype and blocking the face and voice if so.

Lol is anyone surprised it was him? He's a genuinely bad person. Loud-mouthed bully. Honestly Trump like in the way he deals with things.

I don’t watch any of his content so I’m not aware of his personality, but I trust your opinion. However it seems on the face of it that in this instance it’s a bit of a misunderstanding? I feel like the twitter attacks from journalists have made Rabin very fearful and cautious. Maybe he just thought the worst when he realised it was being recorded. After what’s happened he probably feels like everyone is out to expose him, even people that actually aren’t? I dunno, that’s just how it came across to me, but you know this Andy guy better than me and what he’s capable of.

Cockwomble glory hunter ‘I am the face of the fans’ type affair - how dare Rabin put me in the shade......

Him not you by the way twosips [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I've watched enough Sherlock Holmes in my time to know that something isn't right about this whole episode.

Ray? Rabin? Very similar names, no? Then you think about the sunglasses that Ray wears? Ray-Bans. Ray ban. Rabin. Case solved.

I don’t think anyone defending him knows his history.

That’s the Donald Trump version of events.

This guy from the Fan TV has a history of being a total arse to other online City personalities.

Trust me when I say this. Something more will come of this footage of it hasn’t already.

The fact that his partner in crime for so long, Ray, left an hour after Rabin's tweets, over a 'serious' difference of opinion suggests there's a lot he's not admitting in his video. I watched it, and its a lot of hot air tbh. The one thing he hasn't denied is that he was recording someone without them knowing for a few minutes at very least, which is fucking odd. Totally in keeping with his character too as a person.

Got to say I’m conflicted after watching it. Andy also seemed pretty genuine and fronted up. According to him, Rabin didn’t have an issue and didn’t ask for it to be deleted.

Andy’s reasoning for recording it (to send to Ray) also seems reasonable but I also understand Rabin’s fears.

Seems like crossed wires and we can suspend the BM witch-hunt for now.

I don't know individuals on either side of the debate.

If The lad from MCFCTV was in the wrong, it appears to me he would've admitted to any mistake. He's also gone back through and done a transcript to ensure he hasn't done anything wrong, as if could diminish their profile significantly from a reputational standpoint.

I don't use Skype. Can only one side be recorded? If not why didn't Rabin do the same for comfort purposes?

I think it's a storm in a teacup/ crossed wires kind of caper.

Way too easy. Ted Rogers used to think of tougher s*** on 3-2-1!

Yeah that’s true, he did try to come across as being whiter than white, but it’s clearly fact that he started the video recording without consent. And didn’t apologise for it in the reveal video. So yeah, that certainly doesn’t come across too well.
 
Can someone post me a link about this lad off of CityFanTv? I never watch any fan channels personally so never knew of him, I watch this video about Rabin though & unless I’m an extremely bad judge of character or he is a very good actor, the lad seems ok to me. No problem with anyone doing these channels just not my cup of tea to be watching them unless there 1min edits of Arsenal Fan Tv after a hiding.

I use Skype call recorder for videos sometimes, and only person can see that. The other can't.
