I gave St Marcus a miss but googled premier league corruption instead. Astonishingly Big Fat Corrupt Crooked Cvnt Allardyce n triffic 'Arrrrry Redknob came up pretty much immediately. Imagine my surprise!

The EPL's commercial contracts with partners are apparently full of non disclosure agreements. Anyone with a suspicious mind might think that blanket secrecy might be against good governance practices. You will be reassured to know that the EPL do have a Statement of Principles which says "Being objective, responsible and trustworthy." So that's nice.

Most European leagues are set up so that the same referees cannot officiate the same team more than twice. I'm surprised the stalwart chaps from PIGMOB reffing the richest league in the world have to do so many matches involving the same teams.....

Just noticed that someone else mentioned the unexpectedly positive view of our community work st oneincluding Xmas. Six fingered Stokie Roger made a point of saying "many clubs do a lot don't they?"

The more things change, the more they stay the same:-)
I didn't realise Dodgy Roger was a Stokie but clearly no fan of City. Over the last few months he has had many an opportunity to make a point of saying 'many clubs AND players do a lot as well' as his employers saturated the airwaves about one. Instead he waited for the right time to knock the shine off City's local community work.
 
If god forbid the rags should mount a title challenge to the dippers how would the media play it ? Being fair and neutral is not something the BBC understands so which of the isstree clubs would they favour. The only good news at the end of such a competition one set of fans would be massively pissed off, as well as us.
They'd favour the dippers, even Utd come 2nd in that

I clocked our six fingered friend on North West tonight too and my initial reaction was "what a twat"
If that had been their beloved St Marcus, Johnson would have had his pants round his ankles performing the vinegar strokes live on air.
The BBC just can't help themselves.
 
SPOTY is a pathetic joke as is the BBC in general.
Both the "award" and the shit stain of a broadcaster which is basically a haven for paedophiles and nonces deserve to be treated with nothing but contempt.

Accurate & factual. Spot on.

I don't know how they've got the cheek to continue with the program. They ditched sports coverage many years ago in favour of cooking programs and other crap. Their programming must amount to a couple of hours of highlights a week for all sports.
Absolutely spot on my friend, they’ve gone from the epiphany of sports presentation to the pits in twenty years.
 
Watching stuff like the Big Match Revisited you realise just how embarrassing most commentators are these days. Barry Davies, Brian Moore to Jonathan Pearce, Twat Tyler, Crimson Clive. And the screeching women. Mute button says hello.


I guess the older generation had a background in radio so understood about presentation and strictly adhered to the journalistic codes. These days rentagobs seem de rigueur. Though I suspect I'm the only one nostalgic for Brian Clarke saying the big bean pole striker had a good touch for a big man!
 
I just don’t get the hype surrounding Henderson, I don’t rate him at all on any level, this isn’t my hatred for all things dipper either.
I agree with a good few of that team but I would have Kyle Walker in at RB, no idea what Coady is doing in that team and I’d have Eddie in nets, if we are talking about wanting a keeper letting the least goals in and the best distribution...

Don’t get me wrong, I know fuck all but then again neither do rat n spit...
 
BBC Breakfast sports news announces League Cup Final moved back until April 'so more fans can go. It helps those teams who are out as well methinks.
But it shows an aerial shot of a red seated stadium with the seats covered with those seat covers in bright red with 'United' so prominent l thought it was the Swamp. A close look shows it's Wembley and the seats on the right hand side are bedecked in Chelsea seat covers.

So whats that all about? Chelsea are out and with luck United will be out tomorrow. A bit of free advertising shown on the neutral BBC?

If they had shown a closeup of the trophy, at least City's name would be pretty prominent on that.

Personally I rate Henderson, I think he is a good player. He's a tidy passer, hard worker and has a decent range of passing on him.

He is just not THAT good, certainly not some 'best ever midfielder England has ever seen good'.
 
When Neville had the real life opportunity to pick a side he proved himself absolutely hopeless even with the help of someone who was soon to be an international manager, his equally useless brother.
His useless brother who took England's ladies team backwards and was relieved of his post

Let's face it, if you wanted a close up of any trophy these days you wouldn't see The Rags name in it so their ex Mutv stooges at the BBC have to resort to something else.
 
Confused I thought rooney signed for Everton as a kid. How is the son following in his footsteps ?
Or have I got it wrong that rooney came thought their academy and played for free like all their players !
I hear some of Rooney's sperm is being cultivated in one of the rags 65 year old tea ladies so the child can keep up the family 'istree....

Archive shot from 2019-2020's FA Cup semi final?
 
These two commentating (Alan Smith and the other guy) are doing my head in, Making sound like Arsenal have been hard done by, "poor keeper" for the 2nd goal "offside" 3rd goal !

If you had sat behind two reasonably knowledgeable Arsenal fans and listened to them I’m not sure it would have sounded much different. All about what Arsenal were or were not doing. There is a sort of assumption that Arsenal should win and if they don’t it must because something is wrong with the world. I don’t mind that amongst Arsenal fans, but we pay for this shite.

Fucking annoys me. There’s two teams on a football pitch.
