It's just more proof of how many hipster("I support Spurs because Arsenal supporters are cliche") journos there are in our press. They named just City and Fullham because the muted celebration from Spurs' goal allowed them to and Brighton didn't score against City. The reaction to the standard City celebration was far stronger that it was for this one just a day earlier:

I don't think any City fan minds the discussion itself but after a look around most of the recent UK articles on it, from a quick google search and it seems to be that City are the go to choice for an example photo(and footage in mainstream TV news). 3 or 4 different sources, all using a City picture and they seem to be different pictures in most cases, so that rules out the "Ah they just copied the article from the first guy" excuse. It seems to be a conscious decision.

Example from Spurs at the weekend vs Marine FC(massive game) which I had to create myself from the highlights.

Nice piece of objective reporting by the times, the same respected newspaper where Matthew Syed composed the following headline:

‘Is it fair to put lives at risk for football? On balance, yes’​

Is it fair to put lives at risk for football? On balance, yes

Is it worth restarting the Premier League if there is a risk that a footballer, or perhaps a member of the coaching or ground staff, dies as a result? Should a mere game be allowed to jeopardise a person’s existence, potentially devastating their kids, their partner, their broader families?I think t

So which view is it? Does the view depend on which colour shirt the team wears?

Has the ping pong cheat apologised to us yet?

No need to answer.

Strange when he does the press preview he does it from home, it's OK for footballers to have the risk but not a ping pong bollocks talking cheat, did I mention he's a cheat?

I’ve just ranted in our lads work WhatsApp group and I’ve not even had anyone disagree. Sent the last few images on these pages and the Forest fan in there said it must be bitter Utd fans who are writing these articles.
 
Don't know if this has been mentioned yet.

I’m calling it now so we can all look back at this post.

If we build an unassailable lead at the top of the league, the media will start calling en masse for the season to be postponed.

I guaren-fucking-tee it right here and now.

Ignore the precedent of last season. The narrative will quickly change overnight to ‘why are we playing football when people are dying’.

Clear as fucking day, this will happen.

A draw between the two evil empires on Sunday, followed by a win for us v Palace, will see us leading on ppg. The PL only have 2 options with Covid increasing... carry on regardless or cancel. They can’t have a break like last season, because of the Euros.
 
Newcastle had a break out in their camp and they don’t score.
Celebrating goals isn’t the problem.

Its what they or staff get up to off the pitch that causes it. Some of their own fault and rightfully shamed like I would to my mates, but mainly because its a global virus that stopped global economies that no one knows how to control.

Blaming celebrating footballers right now is the same attitude they had about footballers not donating their wages. Its tired, built on bigotry and jealousy. Glad thats not how I live my life
