So Liverpool will probably get a week long media meltdown for their ref mistakes and we get shite like this from Sky Sports via Dermot Gallagher:
“It’s a foul for me, no yellow card,” he told Sky Sports. “Referee has got the best view, the referee is looking straight at it. I think he can see the intensity of the tackle, he knows, he’s got a feel for it because he’s six/eight yards away.”

We don't need meltdowns but at least admit it was a blatant second yellow card/mistake. He's nothing short of bullshitting there IMO. Does he seriously think Walker was play acting in his reaction? I'd like to see the full debate but can't seen to find it on youtube or sky. Wouldn't surprise me if they all just agreed and moved on.

Fulham game is nearly 10 minutes old and still no mention how much Chelsea gave spent on transfers. Sky wankers.

Saw that. BBC United - Mediacity couldn't find a clip of Franny scoring a goal for City. Cunts!

There’s four articles on Franny on the main BBC website.

That goal was an iconic Lee moment. Even if it was against us.

I’m no lover of the BBC but they’ve surpassed my expectations of the level of coverage they’ve given this sad news.

They must be reading the thread.

Iconic, which it was. However, there are numerous clips of Franny scoring for City. One of those clips would have been more appropriate. Even though Franny played for Derby, he will forever be remembered as one of the greatest City players ever.

I agree. Franny had a great career and before today I have never had an issue with that goal (very ‘Typical’ of City).

As long as what they put out is factual, why shouldn’t we enjoy the full career of a City legend. It will have real sentimental value for Derby fans of the time.

At times like this, tribalism isn‘t relative, compassion for all, is.

Our tribalism is only against the BBC not rival fans/clubs.

I made the following comment on the BBC hys section but it was removed by the biased BBC:

"Biased BBC put a photo of Lee scoring against City, not no image of him in his iconic sky blue City kit. There's no way they would do this for a former legend from another leading PL club. Institutional bias again!"

(Edit: Have resubmitted a similar comment:
"BBC put a photo of Lee scoring against City, yet no image of him in his iconic sky blue City kit, even though he spent the lion's share of his career there!
There's no way BBC would do this for a former legend from another leading PL club. BBC bias? Couldn't possibly be, such a suggestion gets removed by the completely impartial institution!"

Let's see if they remove this too?...)

I don’t know how to do it but maybe a Twitter page called BBC HYS deleted comments & fans can post screen prints. Complaints are no good but at least it can permanently show what’s going on.

Arguably the most iconic photograph in our History
