Twitter is poison. Good to know that we matter mind.

Correct answer. I strongly believe it should be pulled down until they get control of the racism, xenophobia and hate. To be able to sign up to a platform with false details and be able to spew whatever you like should not be allowed imo. This includes the “journalists” who now seem to think it’s ok to spout “facts” constantly without any fear of reprimand. For example us being state owned etc.. these false “facts” get imbedded in people’s brains and do more harm than you may think

Yea well said, but if you don't know by now the BBC aren't the national institution they used be. Just another shady propaganda media machine who hates City and anyone who's not Tory. FUCK em

Well I never, BBC loves Tories. Right.

 

[Gazza]

I have been watching ESPN FC.The pundits on there give well balanced views,Namely Craig Burley,Nedham,Klinnsmann,Steve Nicol.Sky and Bt should be taking note of how anaylsis should be fair and balanced.None of them put across any bias they may have.

It's fashionable to be anti-City.

 

[John Wayne]

What a ridiculous comment.So people are not allowed to post on any subject, only the ones you think are important ! You don't think it's a worthy subject so can you let us know what is ? By the way we thoroughly enjoyed the win last night and it is possible to do both.

Where did I say "you are not allowed to post on any subject"? Where? Let's have it.

Where did I say that "you must only comment on the topics I think are important?" Again, evidence please.

You're free to comment on whatever you like, I'm not stopping you. By the same token, you commenting on my thoughts as "ridiculous" makes you a hypocrite. You reserve the absolute right to comment on the media that you view to be unfavourable, just as I reserve the right to call people sad for doing so. Get a thicker skin.

There’s some hilarious stuff on here about terrible BBC bias (Amongst others). Just remember the BBC didn’t bother reporting half a million anti-lockdown protestors last Saturday. They barely reported a year of yellow vest protests in France. They knowingly harboured one of the worst paedophiles in history. What the fuck do you expect from the BBC?

Totally agree about twitter, it's splitting society. My Mrs has turned rabid with all the stuff about Boris on twitter. It makes people believe in only their own point of view

I one thing I would like to say it how everyone/every team believes they don't get enough praise or their team and players are underappreciated.
After the Carabao cup there were 100 comments by spurs fan how they are hated and City bought the referee. Then some cliched taunt about the oil money.

Red cafe thinks it's all Liverpool loving media. RAWK thinks otherwise. Arsenal are an enigma and everyone gets a good chuckle out of them. But it's amazing how everyone thinks they are the victims. Real or otherwise.

Also of the last 30 articles i read about City CL campaign, 29 of them mentioned our squad value. Its amazing how all the articles this morning covered City -starting with the word sportswashing. Its nauseating to read a report and the good parts starts in the second last paragraph. And then the entire red fanbase who thinks we are not criticized enough or at all.

At this point I don't even know who is the real victim!

 

[Mike Cledford]

Wow that was the quickest skirting over of a CL semi final ever by little Mike on BBC breakfast ! Had a big report in amateur cricket in Birmingham to get to !

I always apply my 'Imagine' test to reporters and pundits.
It goes 'Imagine that reporter routinely running down a French/German/italian/Spanish etc team before and after a match in his national press?
Can you imagine a French etc former international player doing the same about a team from his own country?
Or can you imagine any other club in the PL especially the Redshirts getting the same treatment as City?
I know it sometimes happens but most of the time it is a buig stretch of the imagination.
Cunts

surprised there isn’t a rival to Twitter similar but when you sign up you have to be verified! Once people sign up to it and traffic goes more towards it then Twitter might change at the moment they don’t give a shit what is put out! Oh wait they do a Sky video of a goal is taken down almost immediately!

 

[Segga]

and what did you want or expect to see in the Media thread?

A thread created for people to report and moan about the way the media treats the club?

As for the bolded lol yeah we only see what we want to see, there has been no obvious biased reporting on Oil Rich Man City FC and it has all been in our imaginations all along.

I thought I might of seen some positive posts!!
You are getting the wrong end of the stick I’m not saying there hasn’t. Some reporting has been horrendous but My point is I couldn’t care less because I know why that is. It’s born from bitter ex reds or fans in the media or from business who make money and there is more money to be made pandering to the red shirts

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

You can see this two ways. It makes me happy tbh. My god he hates us.



I totally enjoyed the stick we have him at kompanys testimonial.

 

[remember arthur mann]

One full hour now on BBC Breakfast and Midget Mike has given us 15 seconds, if that !

 

[Rochdale Blue]

Well he certainly stirred the hornets nest, the thread is chock full of United and Liverpool fans frothing at the mouth. Well done Gary Lineker.

The same shower that very recently were informing us that it didn't matter what we win because no one is bothered. In fact the very same shower that were proclaiming just last season that it was the beginning of a glorious thousand year empire founded by Jurgen, but are now saying the game will be destroyed by a City/Chelsea final. Most of the creatures on rawk seem to want a Chelsea win if we both make the final. Not bad for a club they claim aren't rivals and don't matter.

 

[wolviedinho]

Dietmar Hamman was mortified on German Sky last night again What did we ever do to him apart from stop him going Bolton!!!

He swore blind that there was no debate that De Bruyne should have been sent off. The other pundits were stood open mouthed looking at him as if he was joking, but he didnt flinch (although there were plenty of eye twitches!)

He hates City with a passion. Did he leave under a cloud or something? Dont remember anything amiss. Perhaps we didnt smash enough busses for his taste compared with his previous employer. Twat.

He is an addict bud, probably off his meds last night. I can give you 2 reasons why he hates city:

1. He is German and has a racist superiority complex towards Arab owners.
2 He is a delusional Dipper with hate in his heart.

The only reason he is on tv is because he went into bankruptcy not long ago and now rents his mouth out to any city hating commercial organisation. Twitching twit.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

It's funny how Hamman sounds Scouse, with a hint of German.

 

[Phil1]

Is it just old people who still watch BBC news every morning?

 

[remember arthur mann]

Understandably as to watch ITV you'd need a lobotomy.

 

[Mike Cledford]

Just caught the item on Breakfast. Smug peanut head mike midget's dye job was so distracting but I think he's basically said the tie not over yet. Showed all the goals and a bit of Pep. All in the space of 30 seconds before twittering on about community cricket in Brum.

At least Naga ManCity was supportive - not! Saw a bit of the early thing on Sly they were very positive about us. Does Charlotte Duncker work for the MEN? Sure I've heard of her before. The bloke on it raved about Ruben. Spoilt ot by rsaying Phil's game time could cost Raz a euro place.

To heck with the jackals. Let's score a hatful on Tuesday. In City we trust.

Please don't ever call Naga Munfuckingchetty aMan City again even in jest. She introduces that little twerp by saying:
'What's clear is Manchester City is slightly (with a hand gesture to show how slight) at an advantage at this moment in time?'.
Well you daft cow it means we are nicely placed for the home match and l am chuffed to fuck.
Stick to your golf and clothes shopping.

Loved to drink drive and abandon his car.
