I don't remember Auntie Beeb having this "Big 6" identity crisis when we were languishing in 8th.

Crazy idea, but here goes. How about we just call it the "Top 4" or "Top 6" for ease of reference?

There you go.

Yes, in the BBC Handbook it was state the Top 4 or Top 6 must be instantly replaced with "Big" if any of the Red Arse Cheeks, are omitted.
This of course includes many articles of transfer speculation or on loan-deals, if it involves the Trafford Tramps.
I feel as if I've been reading The Fish-finger Chronicles, with his every move stalked by Slimy Simon or one of his reptilian underlings.
I suppose it distracts from their on the field failings ?

Yeah, thought about going there with my family, I believe they released a tourist board video to attract holiday makers a few years ago. Hotel Rwanda or something, I will have to give it a watch.

Probably contains all the touristy info.

Arsenal get such a generous sponsorship from them, their tourist industry must be booming.

Wont be needing Britains aid soon hopefully.

Reuters saying £10m a year but that won’t be state sponsorship for Arsenal fans or the media

It's the so-called "Big 6" now.

Ignoring the fact that both Arsenal and City are actually in positions required of them to be...ermm..."Big 6" members.

So the very media who coined the "Big 6" modern mantra, have now coined the belittling "so-called Big 6" phrase simply to pacify the Rag hoardes who believe it is their God-given right to be members of the media-driven "Big 6" elite.

I mean, how could it possibly be a "Big 6" without all our red-shirt dahlings in it?

Jeez.

Haha, the 'big 6' only became a thing once the red shirts and spuds struggled for top4.

BBC Sport has been on the wane for years and years but it really hit home to me how poor things were when a couple of years ago while relaying news from the AFCON one of their female reporters on 5 live informed the listeners how “Doctor Congo” had fared in their match that evening

You think that's bad, on Cbeebies news they reported that the Democratic Republic of Foster went to Gloucester in the pouring rain.
 
I'm waiting for the Rag infested loving media to tell us United are back again after their massive win against the Romanian potato pickers on Thursday night. Arf!

..and the tins of Heinz beans, the multipack of Yorkshire Tea bags and the McVitie's Digestives.. you'll not survive going abroad without the essentials in your case!

Think on and look sharp 'mancboy' and 'mexico1970', think on and look sharp..!!
 
John Hartston and Dicky providing insightful and eloquent analysis in the Matchday live studio in spite of the CBeebies style nonsense delivered by Natalie Pike

Ffs surely we can do better than her

Moony from the podcast would be perfect. Knows his onions, asks good questions and isn’t giggly and daft when talking to ex players

Who the fuck is [Eamonn Sweeney]?

He's one of the many Irish journalists with rag or red dipper affiliations who clearly loathe us and take the opportunity to bang on about it in articles of soul-destroying tedium at any chance they can get. In my opinion, if he's not the worst out there, he's pretty close to it but you may avoid seeing him if you don't read whatever Irish publication he writes for.

We should also note that his byline pic has the look of a both weapons-grade, mouth-breathing simpleton and, if I can borrow on of GDM's favourite words, an inveterate nonce. Apologies to the easily offended but sometimes swearing is the only usage that's appropriate and thus it's going to be here as this bloke simply merits dismissive abuse rather than any serious commentary. File under '****' and forget about him.

One day I'm going to compile these posts into a book and make a few quid
