Media Discussion - 2023/24

Which “journalist“ asked this question re Pell”istry”? What an absolute embarrassment he is. No wonder Pep has no time for them. Just post this knob 2 City shirts for his rag mate to wear.

There was an equally ridiculous question about Messi, Barcelona and the current Argentinian team being the 2 greatest ever teams.

So from Pep’s conference, Pellestri has said he goes to the city centre with his girlfriend trying to find city shirts and can’t? Odd, cos I’ve seen loads of tv channels with 1000s of footballers and can’t find him. 12 apps - and that’s in one shit team. 2 years at Alaves (12 apps no goals or assists, second spell 22 apps over 673 mins). Who is he, the ‘Arndale Cavani’?What a catch this lad is for his girlfriend. Do they play ‘bogies’ too?

I agree with all of this but nowt wrong with a game of bogies

 

[Xhavenjoe]

What the fucks is a Pellestri?

You shouldn't have asked that.
We are now going to have a discussion on whether its the Uruguayan version of a barm or muffin.

Id be fairly confident City would beat Argentina but the questions are bizarre.

So a bad taste chant by a couple of kids is still a big headline yet a racist tweet by a player is swept under the carpet.

And a pot of coins and some kids ‘messing about on the roof of police vehicles’ whilst the officers are stood next to them laughing at our bus being smashed up before a vital game.

Remind me again; who are we playing this weekend?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Fuck me.

'Teenager charged over Bobby Charlton chant' is more important than Gaza being bombed to fuck on Sky News.

 

[Blue Mist]

Apparently!
They've worn this stuff before and have been wearing DS gear for ages!

Is this Jim white who has made a career of the back of a yellow fucking tie?

My point wasn't about the DS gear ! It was about the blatant lie that they are the only sponsors of City other than the Abu Dhabi state.

I don't give a fuck whatvthe players wear, I care about blatant lies told by the media wanks.

It’s so transparent. Every time there’s a big game round the corner our players get linked with a move. It used to happen with Aguero all the time. Does this happen to any other teams? I’m pretty sure I know the answer.

Sounded like Jack Gaughan which is a surprise because normally he's sound. Trusted by the club as well and Pep usually responds to him well because not a dick like simple simon etc.

Probably the dick question was asked because he's under instruction from his editor.

That was Sam Lee. Sam not liked on here but usually his questions are far better than the likes of Stone, Jackson etc.

The real question is why? We're European champions. 3 times in a row premier League champions. We're fa cup champions. We're European super cup champions. IT DOESN'T FUCKING WORK!

 

[cheekybids]

Rest easy the BBC now reporting a 17 year old has been charged by Manchester plod and a 14 year old has voluntarily handed himself in.

phew.

Imagine how many back page headlines filled with this & yet a professional footballer comparing his team mate to a gorilla doesn’t even get a mention.

 

[cheekybids]

Pep should have said I’m sure Pellestri has been mis-quoted….. it’s far more likely he goes looking for United shirts with his name on the back & can’t find any!

 

[Bald fraud]

Carragher and Neville were giddy tonight weren’t they!

 

[hammocity]

I have sent emails to both the fa and kick it out. They havent even acknowledged my emails

Kick it out is a well oiled money machine for the Directors and Staff, they don’t have to work very hard to earn a crust.

If racism was actually kicked out they wouldn’t exist, they love what they do and the finance they receive is not justified but it’s great publicity

He's the only journalist that asks Pep about tactics. You'd think more of them would considering they have the chance to pick the brain of arguably the best tactician the game has ever seen.

It does work.... it keeps driving us to win more :)

Just listened to the MEN podcast on the derby and Simon Bajkowski let slip that journalists who cover us were watching the Newcastle game in the Young Boys press box on Wednesday.

Not surprised - it explains a lot about the quality of the writing of club correspondents that supposedly cover City.

Jamie Paradise was at Young Boys the other night, not that I’d ever question his professionalism of course.

Gaughan’s turned into a clown this week. His performance at a presser yesterday was an absolute joke.

Saw a clip from Klopp’s presser where the assembled scouse media take turns at sycophantic kissing of his arse, whereas Pep gets asked continuous questions about Utd.

This is what you get after years of a non existent PR team saying fuck all and still ended up getting bullied by the media.
