BBC forced to withdraw claim that Man City have bought English football.

Lets leave Brexit off the football pages please.

Prove otherwise?

Spend 10 minutes listening to the Today programme on Radio 4.

I do plenty and they really would love to remain, not sure how this proves anything, it is probably one of the most doom and gloom examples you could have given.

@George Hannah or anybody else

On the video that's up now, he says 'it was said, in the aftermath of the FA Cup Final, that their dominance is becoming an issue...'.

aftermath
/ˈɑːftəmaθ,ˈɑːftəmɑːθ/
noun

1. 1.
   the consequences or after-effects of a significant unpleasant event.

As biased as that is, that's pretty standard anti-City bias from someone who's had as many run-ins with the club as Roan but did he say anything else? It kind of seems like he had another question to ask that was edited out, do you know what the actual wording of the question was?

Just another example of the BBCMU being absolute c***s.

Since the BBC crawled back to United and Fergie after upsettling him about Darren, they've done nothing but grovel to United. Even more so since BBC Sport moved to Mediacity.

Prove otherwise?

Prove that he doesn't believe otherwise? Might be a tall order, even for me.

Nothing was ever said when the rags were buying players at stupid money years ago

 

[Met Line Hammer]

He's an utter bell who is obsessed by WHU too. 'Tevezgate', Olympic Stadium, West Ham ladies sex discrimination. BBC Sport is moribund

 

[GortonBlue62]

You actually believe the BBC's output is unequivocally pro-Remain?

The BBC is totally impartial...
