But, but all ushited players come out of the academy, don’t they?

Oh, they do, they do, but sometimes they then have to buy them back for well over £100m ;)

Funny how they never mentioned the rag scum have spent about half a billion in the last ten years to win about two cups.

You need to put another £500m on top of that, rags have spent over a billion £s since pisscan retired.

I put this on the HYS bbc report of last nights game.

Once again the unbiased bbc post 5 comments about city's bench (cost) in their match commentary. It really is just propaganda these days, nothing like a balanced discussion from the so called national broadcaster. They really must be hurting at the salford red office. Love it.

All the top liked comments supported my view (6th highest). Yet after I complained to the bbc they argued that they post live comments that represent "majority" views.

They make it up as they go along, the quality of journalism is just shocking.

I used to go on the DT football page up to about 7 years ago. Mark Ogden was a major reason l gave up written media but l also hated the way moderators would amend or omit parts of posts they didn't like altering their meaning completely.
Many of the posts from rags fans all claimed to be from Manchester but so obviously lying about that and everything else. Easy to spot for anybody but the moderation made it all a pointless discussion.
The BBC was reasonably OK in those days and even the Liverpool fans allied with Blues against the common enemy.

It‘s scandalous that it’s never mentioned in the media yet every one of our players has his price read out during commentary like it’s part of their name.

It‘s blatant propaganda really.

I think the art of Journalism died a long time ago, this lot are just click baiters and rather poor ones at that.

Well we are certainly the main story on the lovely Beeb tonight, Roan live from the Etihad!

Was there a full enquiry into the conduct of Beeb employees in the 70's & 80's.

I see that the BBC are promoting the line that the Champions League is a shoe-in for Bayern Munich.

Champions League: Why Bayern Munich could dominate European football for years to come

As Bayern Munich prepare for life without some of their key players, we look at why the European champions are already one step ahead of the game.

The rag PR machine go into overdrive when we’re in the CL and they are not.
They’re hurting like fcuk.

But they are happy to be informed that the CL overhaul will allow them unfettered access to Champions' League particiapation regardless of position, division or trophies won - in perpetuity.

Because it is their right - that has to count.

More of this press we want, Pep must be angry at the way we are treated in this country and the longer it goes on the longer I think he will stay.
Just imagine if they hailed him as the greatest manager ever to grace the premier League, he would go looking for a new challenge somewhere else.
Keep going media we will watch you being schooled by the master.
I'm even waiting for his press conference these days just to see if they get an answer to the "Hi Pep".
They can say and write what they want because I'm fxxking loving the ride.

Hi Pep, Richard Head, Sly Sports, Considering how much more money you have spent compared to the rest of the universe would you agree anything but a Quadruple this season will be seen as a catastrophic failure by Alex from Yatton on the BBC Sports website comments section?

I have known quite a few Richard Heads in my life, a few of them were bosses and a few others colleagues that I worked with. Amazing that a lot of them were Rags.

A few years ago, in answer to a cold caller on the telephone doing a survey, I gave my name as Richard Head. Subsequently, I received occasional nuisance calls asking to speak to Richard Head. It always amused me and confirmed they were nuisance calls.

The biggest laugh though was a couple of months ago when the wife answered the phone and the caller asked to speak to Mrs Head!!.

I think it was in Hot Fuzz when Simon Pegg took a call from a Peter Ian Staker.
"Yeah,yeah pistaker," said Simon. "I wasn't born yesterday you know".
It turns out that was his real name!!!!

Haha!....many blue moons ago as a young lad, I called the office to ask for a page to go out over the tannoy for Don Kiddick, said lady announced to 500 employees that she was looking for a large endowed Donald

On the BBC Champions League live reaction page they've (Mantej Mann) reposted this comment from last night:

View attachment 12609
They don't give in do they? It really is incessant. They never post comments about the money other clubs have spent.

Money has paid a part in building our squad. But we’ve spent virtually the same as the rags since the loss can left, they’ve paid more wages, and we’ve won more trophies. There’s nothing unfair about it. We are the better run club

 

[The Clansman]

This is certainly the case with the fake profile "Alex from Yatton" which has posted borderline racist comments about our owner in the BBC match day coverage. I understand this person has not been in the BBC team that long. The problem with the BBC Salford operation is that some of its staff are too arrogant. These trolls will be found out and will lose their jobs. The BBC is under a lot of internal pressure from the top to clean up its act these days.

I bloody hope so; Alex from Yatton was blatant even by Mediacity standards. Rag b@stards!!

I once took a phone call from head office and passed it on to another member of staff, and said it was Jeffrey Dahmer, the head buyer.

Hi Pep, R Sole, Weatherfield Gazette, Are you disrespecting ickle Citeh's so-called greatest ever striker Kun Aguero by instructing his teammates NOT to pass to him during games?
