Exposing the hypocrisy of journalists

[Marvin]

Rabin is beginning to sound like a broken record, he needs to move on to another target.

Why don't you help him out. Suggest others do too.

Here's a small job. Write a Python program to web-scrape transfermarkt.co.uk to double-check sportsbible's article on City's 10 year spending. Almost certainly they have done it wrong, because most ignore Premier League U23 and U18 players which are listed separately under transfermarkt.co.uk site. I don't think transfermarkt.co.uk would be too happy if they found that incorrect data is being attributed to them. http://www.sportbible.com/football/...transfers-since-2008-is-mind-blowing-20190610

@Ennis Hi Delaney ;)

@Ennis Hi Delaney ;)

Haha!
I think it’s brilliant what he’s done he’s owned them all, I just think he’s coming across as they have got under his skin a bit. He should just chill out because we will probably need him once the footy is back!

He needs to stay on it till they back track,being owned by a state is central to their arguements

They won't, Miguel told a blatant lie, and refused to acknowledge it, or correct the article he lied about.

And then Evan did the same, claimed that the mistake/fuckup in Miguel's writing was a fact, and then the moment it was pointed out that he was being an idiot, he switched subjects to go on the attack, and also wouldn't admit his mistake.

They're both liars.

I think once he gets answers to the questions he asked he will, until then why should he

 

[MillionMilesAway]

I wonder if Miggy would be more upset if no-one replied to his tweets? That would be fun for a day or so!

Nonsense he’s doing a great job of exposing a highly dubious self serving part of the media for the charlatans that they are.

 

[malg]

Fake news has been going on for years. It is the reason I stopped buying a paper years ago. It's just that more and more people are starting to twig.

Thank fuck, some sanity.

Why, what have you done to counter the attacks from these morons so that he can move on?

 

[Franny's toilet roll]

Disagree, he's doing ok. There are a few joining him to highlight the smear job being done against the club, but if you don't like it, don't read the tweets

 

[Barcon]

Haha!

I think he should keep going until they crawl back under their rocks for good.

Long may he continue. He's exposed and rattled these so called journalist and their smear campaign against our club. They don't look like stopping anytime soon so why should he. In fact, Miguel and MacKenna are like a tag team today giving out their bullshit.

I’m a fan of his, he wiped the floor with them all originally, he did it in a calm and calculated way just dealing with facts that were available online then backing off and letting them wince.
I just feel this time round he is more emotionally involved getting more involved in petty stuff and he’s been at Miguel for about 3 days solid now going round in circles
and no I can’t do a better job I’m thick as fuck.

If he gets under their skin just a tiny bit then it will be well worth it. Its obvious he's done more than that. They're running scared. One of them (Nick Harris) has even dissapeared off the radar!

Harris has a agenda (as do a lot of them) and possibly something to hide and has gone dark with the fear of being exposed.
Sure he will raise his snout again with the back up from his cronies but is clearly laying low at the moment in fear of his rep being more tarnished .
Rab doing s great job of keeping the vermin looking over there shoulder. Bout time the general public took these cranks on,, they have got away with force feeding the public crap for decades , ruining people’s lives with the so called sensationalism reporting, , public’s fault for lapping it up off them for decades enjoying a perceived scandal .. if people wound there necks in and stopped twitching there curtains then theses hacks would become redundant in life , but the public do love s good car crash as long as it’s not there car involved so there will always be a market for it ...

I see your point and appreciate it. Few things though, over the last few days my engagement with Delaney has been peripheral, he's blocked me and apart from that little thing about Dave Lizewski schtick (which I picked out of Bluemoon forum, who was the brilliant chap who called me that here? I can't remember...made me laugh so much) which was for a lark, I've hardly done much. A couple of things have come about, there have been other blues who have pushed back Delaney amazingly with logic, reasoning, facts and evidence, it's been great to watch and the second is that Delaney is painting himself into the MacKenna corner which is the deep dark recess where all rational thinking journalists don't step in. If you notice even the usual support acts (with the exception of MacKenna) haven't arrived.

I really have very little bandwidth to seek "targets" etc, that would give me far more credit or notoriety than is fair and thus far I've only reacted to what I see as unfair coverage, like other blues. Though I've been reading up about the UK Middle east relationships and the background to what these guys call "sportswashing" etc, and honestly I don't know how journalists from very eminent newspapers (and the newspapers) themselves can get it so wrong. I'm sure there will be opportunities to write about this in the future.

End of the day, can't wait for the season to begin!!! Cheers

That was me that mate. Glad you didn’t take it personally, I was just pulling your leg and in fact trying to entice you out of hiding really haha.

Keep up the good work, just wish it was being seen by a wider audience. Twitter is a strange place populated by strange people.

What we need is this continued stance by more than just you (and I’ve seen there are more getting active with your angle now), being picked up by a decent journalist and switching the printed opinion in the media.

We eventually got there with Sterling. Now everyone wants to be seen writing positively about him.

This runs deeper than anti-City Liverpool bias of the Sterling media saga. But we will get there eventually if people keep at it.
