Another downside of a stuffy Rag win in the CL is Social Media is even more of a cesspit than it normally is for a few days afterwards. Especially with the Ronaldo fan boys posting on every social media platform.
 
Fact is the rags struggled to overcome Atalanta tonight.The media “great night under the lights” yawnfest looming.
The fact we schooled these 5-1 two years back will mysteriously not be mentioned I suspect…..

A 'much improved' Atalanta gave manure a fright

It was a Europa league tie in everything but name. Christ the standard of the champions league is awful this year, I would say Bayern, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Liverpool, Psg and City are the only top level teams in it. The rest are shite.
 
The commentary was right up there with a CL final for a team made up of part timers taking on a big gun, except that it was the rags being lauded as ‘brave’ , heroic blah blah blah. You utter clowns of the media. The only people who are considered brave and heroic are armed forces personnel who storm a machine gun nest.
The commentator cliches that were rolled out yesterday along with the screaming like a schoolgirl when the rags got close to goal made them utterly embarrassing.
Not one mention of the players price tags, as is the usual with us.
BT are a disgrace. If you pay for it, you’re a fool. IPTV is the way ahead.
 
At least the Beeb had the good grace to remind everyone of the Sick Swan at Old Toilet - can you believe that was really TEN years ago??

10 years since 'Why Always Me?' - The day Man City beat Man Utd 6-1

BBC Sport looks back at the day when Manchester City beat rivals Manchester United 6-1 at Old Trafford, and Mario Balotelli revealed his now famous 'Why Always Me?' t-shirt.

And the mute button, never underestimate its importance.
 
Small victories,

How a post gets through referring to City as dirty Arab oil money or words to that effect is beyond me!


Dear BBC Visitor,

Further to your complaint about some of the content on a BBC web site (reference number P42431093), we have decided that it does indeed contravene the House Rules and have removed the offending material.

Thank you for pointing this out to us.

Regards,

Classic guardian football weekly yesterday covering Tuesday nights games.
City coverage lasted about a minute.

Lars Silvertsen: City were brilliant, Foden was brilliant but no point discussing the financial disparity between the teams cos we've discussed it so often previously. Credit to City because they've used their resources well compared to PSG very well
Gledenning: Bruges total wage bill just £18 million. About the same as KDB.... blah blah

Same old same old.....

I stopped listening to the Guardian Football Weekly years ago. It's the same old boring tropes. Hilarious that the website finds itself asking for donations when it employs people who have such disdain for the jobs their actually paid to do.

Genuinely the only comment about that game was this from Rushden "I guess the story here ist that Phil Foden is really good at football". That was it. It followed 35 minutes on Liverpool vs. Atletico.

They routinely miss out City in the preview shows if we are playing a bottom half of the table side.

Let’s be honest, there isn’t 1 tabloid that is pro City. But out of them all, 3 tabloids stand out for me, the Daily Mail, the Guardian, and the Daily Express.

I give you the Daily Express City headline after the 1-5 away win at Bruges in the CL tonight.

Who f*ck is Will Lancaster.(sourced from News Now Man City)
