The athletic!!! the pathetic more like, from what I have read on here recently they are to proper fair footy reporting what the sun are to credible unbiased news. Not only that, our coverage comes with bitter hatred and goading of our fans attached to it.

Imo anyone writing professionally should be looking for positive reaction to his work from anyone who reads it, these wankers along with the bbc/mail/guardian etc etc have zero credibility in that regard, as they look only to pour scorn on anyone who challenges footballs "established red elite".

They are knowingly using their "work" to arm plastic red knownowts with confirmation bias ammunition to attack fans of other clubs while smugly hiding behind journalistic phrases such as "our sources tell us" and we are "reliably informed". Tell me how reliably informed all these tossers were over the cas judgement, ignoring any possible positives toward us so they could continue spouting bile.

The standards of most of these "journos" whether employed, freelance or just social media twats is that low it puts to shame anyone in that business who genuinely cares about their output.

I have worked as a professional tradesperson all of my adult life, if my standards dropped to a level that caused my customers to complain/talk about it to others I would have been out of work in no time. The fact that this does not seem to matter/affect these guys shows what a worthless mess the media has become.

I would love this club to publicly take some of these wankers to task, just to show that printing lies and hatred is not to be done lightly. Instead though, I suspect we will stay silent, and the next scum/dipper "fan" on the periphery of my work/social circle will taunt me with newly acquired "stories" of how City are cheating again. Stories all willingly and gleefully supplied by the various shithouse outlets highlighted on this thread.

I honestly suspect that some reporters are using the media platform provided by their employers to benefit the clubs they support and diss those they dont. How some of it gets past credible editorial checks is beyond belief.

There had been a couple of seemingly positive articles about us posted on here recently which had me hoping for a change in attitude, but maybe they were just token articles to show to the "boss" if/when accused of onesided reporting.
Slagging City is good for business when your key target market is the supporters of the establishment clubs
 
Story in the Mail,Mirror,and Sun,saying there is something dodgy with Billy Meredith,spay slip.Latest scoop,my arse.

Yea any papers covering why Giggs signed for Utd on his 16th birthday after being on City books for ages ? Or Jap Stamp said he was tapped up in a hotel ?
Or how camel mouth forget his drugs rest ?..

I could go on and on and on


Mind you we dodged a bullet with family man etc ;)
 
I subscribed to The Athletic when it first started. Was looking forward to serious and considered football journalism. Binned it after the appalling reporting of CAS. Was enticed back for £1 per month. I now consider that too much and have unsubscribed letting them know it's due to their continual trolling and articles designed to illicit likes and narrow minded (and borderline racist) comments from uniformed pond life. It's a shame, as I really wanted decent journalism to read.
 
Can't believe what I've just seen.

Switched over to see the first 5 minutes of that Transfer Show on Sky and they are talking about Pogba and should he now stay at the rags due to his "good" form(WTF!)

One of the blokes then said whenever he's seen Pogba play for Utd on TV he's always been impressed with his work rate and attitude. I shit you not
 
Well this is awkward, feel free to share on Twitter, WhatsApp etc with any rags who pipe up...
