Wouldn’t wipe my arse with the Guardian anyway.

Don't say that. They might come in useful if we start going low on bog roll again.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

He also included a juvenile ‘Bell End’ reference, presumably to suck up to any sniggering rag and scouse lurkers

Mate, don’t wind me up, I’m angry enough as it is.

I don’t read their shite, they’re just parasites feeding off those who want to drag an ounce of joy out of their lives. These type of media are bottom feeders, fooling the gullible to get their clicks, all in the name of sport, when the reality is that it’s become an entertainment piece in their eyes.

This is not entertainment, this is a family’s life, a football clubs fan base, a real loss to some that should not be trivialised by those that should know better.

Disgraceful and will not be forgotten.

Am I missing something?

Is it the word “massive”?

Surely it’s possible the author just used the word without actually being a prick? The word does fit.

If you know, you know.

No, no it doesn’t.

Hattenstone, one of the Guardian’s pair of pet self-loathing City fans, couldn’t even resist in his tribute to Colin

View attachment 7696

i thought it was a really good review, I think the 45k shows it was a bargain.

Don’t get me started on the bottom feeding scumbag luckhurst

 

[Shirley]

Don't buy, don't click, you know it makes sense.

 

[wolviedinho]

Deplorable & disgusting behaviour from the sewer rats in the Mail.

I hate these bastards with a passion.

I really do wish the club would grow some balls and fuck this lot off

it's cynical, but it's the perfect topic area to make a stand without drawing ire. Disrespecting our greatest ever player is an objective area which I think we could pursue a few of these if we had the inclination to.

It's not just that. He is your greatest player ever, but even if it was a rubbish player, they deserve to be reported on with dignity and respect as any (non very bad criminal) person deserves to be in death. Where is the humanity? The fact he was a wonderful footballer and by all accounts an even better man just makes it worse. He never did anything to anyone and they report his death with thinly veiled digs (and I do see the digs in some of those articles). It's disgusting, they are terrible cunts and they should think how they would feel if a family member of theirs died and it was reported on like that.

Sometimes #buyacoffee isn't just enough but it'd be an expensive day pouring it over the PC.

 

[TheCentralScrutinizer]

who really cares how many fa cup ties man utd were shown live. Media companies have to make money so they pick the game they think will bring in most viewers. Manchester United v anybody usually pulls in most viewers. Not rocket science or conspiracy or media bias just fact.

Only this media company is funded by the public,I don't reckon the rest of the country are arsed about watching them ,its plain bias by the BBC

This should be the thing that finally forces the clubs hand and issues banning orders for the Mail. About time the club got tough with certain media

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Yep, free bog roll with every paper.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

In that game he was scythed down in the penalty area for the most blatant foul you have ever seen and the ref waved play on

Had Sir Blobby remained on the pitch and Colin on the bench we'd have got the pen!

 

[supersonicblue]

Another insensitive headline

 

[johnevans]

The daily fucking fail manage to get a dig in about Colin being the player remembered for coming on for Bobby Charlton in the 1970 World Cup LOSS to Germany

Always p*sees me off when this is brought up.. it was nothing, absolutely nothing to do with Colin Bell or Norman Hunter (brought on for Martin Peters), it was all down to Ramsey. I called it as it happened.

Charlton was taken off a minute or so AFTER Beckenbauer had pulled one back to make it 2-1 (Golden Law of Football: 2-0 is always the most dangerous lead..) Beckenbauer had been nullified for 70-odd minutes by being detailed by Helmut Schoen to man-mark Charlton. For once he attacked us and scored.. so what did Ramsey do? Take off the player the Germans feared most and freed his marker up for the last 20 minutes..

To compound that error, Ramsey substituted Hunter for Peters, who had been doing great work helping to nullify Jurgen Grabowski, who’d been brought on to stretch the play on the right. Within a minute or so, the Germans had moved the ball down both flanks, pulled our defence all over the shop, then boom.. Seeler gets the equaliser..

The rest is history.

So f*ck you (once), you revisionist media twunts. It was all down to Ramsey, not Bell, not Hunter, not Bonetti..

And f*ck you (twice), you media twunts for posting epitaphs referring to ‘buying success’ and ‘massive appearances’ and the like.

Colin Bell was a gentleman and a gentle man and an absolutely fabulous footballer, while you are mealy-mouthed wastes of the 7 billion billion billion atoms it takes to make up the average human being. I don’t know how the likes of you can sleep at night

thank you. You know he would have just laughed it off. Too big a man
