So BBC announce let's talk about city on football focus then immediately talk about spuds and monkeyboy !!!!

Hendrie got the look of a person who needs a good night sleep or he has been out on the razzle all night.

He's like a 62 year old Artful Dodger.

Football Focus were complimentary about us (I ignore Keown as he does not know what day of the week it is) they started with a Montage, then did a quick piece on the record and how we will do. Alex Scott is very fair and adds way more than the other usual suspects

But if you do the opening sequence showing the goals in the last 10 games you expect a little more talk about City than they did .

Haha, I’m much the same. Although with ‘nited it’s sometimes worth hanging on as they regularly shoot themselves in the foot. I saw Everton’s last second equaliser and it was a magnificent moment.

I missed it cos I turned back on when Everton equalised, and turned back off when the scum went 3 2 up. I am claiming that one was completely down to me

‘Arry like a very old Fagan?

Why do the BBC send a camera person to film an interview with a player, but the interviewer then interviews them through a laptop ? It just looks stupid !!

As stupid as getting all the kit and people into a van and moving it across the road coats on just so a reporter can saying a few words to camera about some random rag subject.
Oh and to give some free (?) advertising to the rags by positioning perfectly in front of the megastore all lit up with Manchester United in glaring red neon.

Watched the first 20 mins of football focus and like others was expecting at least 2 mins on City then we had keown stating the reason for dippers demise was solely due to no Anfield wall of noise and also all the injuries they have. Ffs we have more injuries then them. Anyway couldn’t watch the rest of the program as I had to make sure I got to the beach bar for my takeaway beer(sat on the bar wall supping it) before it closes at 3.00.

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

I cease to be astounded by the press in this country, so I won't be expecting too many reports along the lines of:

2 season wanders
Klopp tactics have been found out by other sides
Etc...

I fully expect the type of comments from Keown to be the narrative - whilst conveniently ignoring that the best CB at our club has been missing for most of Pep's tenure (Kompany and then Laporte)

Imagine if we were on this run!!

Love to hear the creative excuse he comes up with after their 3-1 drubbing at Leicester today......:-)

Christ, you've got it tough.

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

It’s because he doesn’t manage any of the red clubs or Chelsea. There would be outright worship from everyone if he was at the rags or dippers. Why does Mourinho get so much slack time after time yet they never muse about him managing Macclesfield

I just love the ridiculous narrative about Pep managing in the lower leagues. You never hear people say: "Do you think Mozart would be any good as a pub piano player?" or Tom Hanks may be a great actor but he would be rubbish at Amateur Dramatics. I mean how good is Lewis Hamilton on the dodgems? It is just absurd.

BBC webpage of City women vs United last night.
Really irritating Massive background picture of a Utd player, whilst , er, we gave them a hammering.
Thought a bit blatant bias and a forlorn hope for them.

Ha!!! I thought you were predicting the score but just found out it's already finished. I'm off to see what Jurgen's excuse is this time.

 

[Dirty Harry]

Stephen Warnock's changed

No excuses;
It was cold, the sun was in the keepers eyes, offside goal, should have had three pens, bobbly pitch, covid break,just reasons .

 

[Shaggy]

Harry Redknapp looks like the result of an old weather worn satchel thats mated with a molten candle. The dodgy old spiv, gertcha.

If the rags lose again they'll be chasing klopp for distractions.

Well said that man, take a bow! :-)

Yes, I Noticed that. Generally they change it to include the latest goal scorer... 3 goals later... still no change.
