Media Discussion - 2023/24

I am tempting to repost stating poor quality comments not stimulating debate. As the opposite of what was removed for being off topic must be on topic

I just gave up. The agenda is clear, but it’ll be in front of the Independent Commission where this will be won or lost.

Sick of hearing about it, but what really pisses me off is the notion that City would have won nowt without financial doping. That’s so ridiculous as to make me spit!

Is it just us or does everyone outside of liverpool think carragher is a dipstick.

FFS Xhavenjoe a dipstick, all the words you could have used and you picked dipstick, mirror look shake head slap face ;-)

The media consistently misunderstand City at every level.
They don’t get how the business practices and aims of some of the world’s most influential and powerful businessmen actually work - it‘s beyond anything they understand and are familiar with, and they certainly fail to comprehend the levels that Pep and his team work at- all they have to do is count the number of titles won playing the false 9!
It makes them and other clubs scared because they don’t know how to deal with it fairly, so they go off down the ‘they must be cheating’ route.
They are football’s Luddites.

I think they do understand everything about City and they know how well we're run as a club. But it doesn't fit the narrative to say that because you're upsetting the red sheep and that can't happen heaven forbid, you're sacked on the spot, lol

Liverpool get bummed at home.

Spitty writes a piece slagging of Erling and the rest follow.

No mention or report on last nights game on Granada reports…. Wonder why?

Apparently Pep wears an exclusive one million euro watch. That shit was on a FB thread. How do they know he didn’t get it for twenty euros from Tenerife? Cunts.

If I earned 23 million euros a year, I'd definitely wear a Casio LCD watch costing £11.99 on Amazon.

I'd wear the £30 version which has a calculator on it just for shits and giggles

FOR whaT it's WORTH

"Yeeesssssss...." spoken in the style of Jeremy Paxman.

My favourite was their insistance that Yaya was a DM when for a good 12 months he was 3/4 of the way up the pitch knocking goals in for fun.

Tony Cascarino co-commenting on the Newcastle away game in 2012. Mancini brought on Nigel De Jong at nil nil, in order to allow Yaya to go forward. TC kept wondering why you'd bring on NDJ when you needed a win. I'm not sure he understood what was going on even when Yaya scored two goals.

 

[cheekybids]

I’ve tried a couple of times, but get the same treatment, but it boggles the mind that 115 and the like are allowed on without response.

Does it really boggle you? It’s organised & clear.

 

[BlueAnorak]

I believe Phil Brown is available :)

Actually, he's manager of my local team - Kidderminster Harriers.
He did well to start with but recent form hasn't been great and relegation to National League North will happen this season (baring a miracle).

 

[Withnail]

Whats more amazing is that he's still employed. The saliva smacking gobshite should've been sacked along time ago.

Says a lot about Sky and The Telegraph who still employ Carragher after the spitting incident. Absolute joke.

I'll be honest, nor did I, but it worked, and I was educated, you live and learn, hopefully.

 

[Our day will come]

Spitty should be concentrating on the striker nearer to home that cost nearly £20m more

I’m certain IF spitty was a Blue the cult would have had him sacked, disgraced and never to show his face again.

I feel your pain!

Next time Big Erl is roped in to do one of those cringeworthy post game on pitch interviews with 3 or 4 Sky twats lined up who then proceed to ask questions in turn like some kind of amateur meet and greet session, he should humiliate Carragher by completely ignoring him when it’s his turn to ask the mind numbingly boring question

Any subsequent attempts by the camp presenter to portray this as a bit of light hearted banter should also be ignored by Erl

He shouldn't ignore him. Just refer to the article and ask him to explain live on air how he thinks he can improve. We all know Carragher can't string two sentences together and the article was ghostwritten. When he has finished blathering he can say he will pass that on to the greatest manager of all time.

Or he could just say: "I'm sorry. I don't understand the question. I don't speak dolphin."

So many ways to make Carragher look like an idiot.

Or just spit on him.
