It's a really good piece that.
F365 can be a bit inconsistent from writer to writer, but they really loathe two-faced journalism.

Well said mate.
100% agree.

Spit, Catflap Junior and Kenny Dalglish's daughter once again blowing smoke up the dippers arse

Why are these 3 constantly covering the dipper games.

Spit is biased as fcuk, never has a good word for us and is regularly seen and heard cheering dipper goals.

Never heard him say how Fabio gets away with murder (can I say that ?) every game for example.

Once again he escaped a booking tonight, nothing mentioned..

What does Catflap Junior actually do ?

As for the anchor woman, I'm sure no strings were pulled to enable her to get her feet under the table at SKY.

The whole lot needs a fkin good shake up..

There must be loads of presentable league one and two ex players who are knowledgeable about the game and would appreciate the opportunity to earn a six figure salary..

Not a fkin chance of any of them getting a look in though..

Fkin Carragher should have been instantly dismissed after spitting at a school girl instead of being front and centre every time there's a game on SKY..

The guys a first class, classless knob..!

These line-ups are exactly what the broadcasters want, that’s why they’re there, to basically spout the fanboy angle as well as rewrite what dodginess we have just witnessed.

Impartiality does not sell subscriptions, Carragher and Neville do by having empathy with their lead viewers. We (and I mean approx 80% of PL fans) are just a by-product that gets patted on the head every now and then.

I can't wait for the time where we don't need the likes of Sky and BT for coverage.

Looks like Migs has found his angle ....... admirably outspoken!

Only reason Norway have been vocal is because they are in fact an oil state and actually have the largest oil and gas based sovereign wealth fund and are also energy independent.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Fucking state of that clown lol!!!

What the fuck is a non-possession player? Every player in the history of the game takes possession at some stage in every game they play, are they trying to compare him to a Michael Owen or something? what a whopper….suppose they’re gonna have to learn the hard way. This is a player who’s worked equally as hard on his physique as his technique, he’s had a few more injuries because of this but is now playing in a man’s body. He’s very quick, explosive over short distances, big, strong, not bad in the air & a very good finisher, I also think his link up play is decent & from what I’ve seen he plays well with his back to goal, There’s no reason why he can’t play slightly deeper than an out & out 9, and I’m sure he will do that in games, would that make him a possession player? I’m not on Twitter but I’d love somebody to revisit that in 6 months

Just watched The Post on film 4, was the start of Nixons troubles. ( not Eric, President Nixon. The difference in the reporting then trying to get the truth out and the sports reporters now who hide behind freedom of the press to continually report lies and are unable to accept court rulings that do not benefit the red shirts. Watch the film and see if you could place Lee Stone Migs Barclay or any of the other biased cu××s that chase clicks in the lead roles. And don't get me started on television pundits.

 

[chesterbells]

I can forget banners and painful defeats. But the stuff that these clubs have tried to do must be punished at every opportunity we get. And as painfully as we can.

Starting tomorrow night.

Otherwise known as second

Or First of the losers

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

Bless him, the pathetic so and so.

A tenous link to the Qatari regime which has no relevance at all to City or our owner. Still they all look the same don't they? They never let you down these racist journos.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Ronay's desperation clearly showing.

Pathetic ****.

 

[argyle]

I read it.

This at the bottom of the article disputes the entire thing.

"On Whoscored.com’s list of Europe’s current top 10 goalscorers he’s fifth on assists. He loses the ball less than Lewandowski, Mohamed Salah and Mbappé."

Pathetic ****.

It's very clear that Ronay, who was one of the media posh boys who converted to football late in life because it was a good way to earn a living, actually has no idea what he is talking about. Pep will be able to change formation easily to make the most of Haaland's talents.
Has he ever watched Haaland play? He is not some sort of bog standard target man. His movement off the ball is fantastic, his pace and spatial awareness is incredible. He is the best striker I have seen since a young Alan Shearer. It is not unusual for Pep to swap formations three or four times in a single match. We always play different formations with and without the ball. Haaland can play upfront on his own, in a front two or a three. Ronay makes a fool of himself everytime he writes about football. He's a bluffer, like so many at the Guardian, but he is fooling no one who attends football matches.

 

[the blue panther]

I had to laugh at the pre match Liverpool love-in tonight on 5 Live - Don Hutchison actually said words to the effect that , now we've signed Haaland, given his pace, teams are going to start dropping back to defend deeper against City, to guard against his pace. The result will most likely be that Haaland won't be as prolific as people think, and he had a bet with Woodgate (who, in fairness appeared to be disagreeing with him) that Harry Kane will outscore Haaland next season.

Whilst the latter is always possible, I was still laughing at the fact that Hutchison must have never watched a City game - if defences dropped any deeper against us to counter Haaland's pace, they'd be behind the f'kin goal line!

Doesn’t matter anyway, he’s playing left back for Pep ;)

 

[jamiecav]

Who cares if he is shit in possession, thats the bit we are good at. Just need him to finish 2 or 3 of the 28 chances we create

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Hmm more bollocks.

Close the gap in points, played a game more and are SECOND.

 

[lonestay]

Noticed the BBC are quoting Erlings transfer fee in dollars now, it's 60 million dollars because that's a bigger number than 51 million pounds !!

He's literally payed to write pompous metaphors and the middle class armchair fans lap it up

 

[BlueMoonday]

This new thing of including wages on top of transfer fee is doing my nut. I assume they will apply this too all clubs this summer then? Even that thick c*nt Micky Gray was at it just now on talkshite.
