Unfortunately we have allowed the 'tarnished image' mantra to gain traction by not killing the 'germ' at birth by effective media management/damage control.

At 93.20 we were most peoples second favourite team.

We failed to 'institutionalise' and develop that position.

We have subsequently become the most successful club of the decade, decorating world football with brilliance & records in equal measure under the finest coach of many eras.

Centurians.
Fourmiddables.
Doubles.
Trebles.
Quadruples.
Infrastructure Development.

We've failed to 'institutionalise' and develop that position.

City are excellent at many things and atrocious at others, media management and PR being one .

Which really does make the ‘sportswashing’ accusation hilarious, if any of them thought about it, for just one minute…

Lost count the amount of times Ive overheard random conversations about us being cheats , recently was at the airport and overheard a couple chatting to this woman and her young son (who was wearing a city shirt) .... "Bet you wont be wearing that when youre found guilty of cheating"......son was about 8 or 9 ffs , cartel have done their job in tarnishing the best side the premiership has ever seen , I really do hope the club come out fighting after all this shit is done with

Another example of the " level playing field " they are supposedly after?

Awaits Jim dragging us back on track.

All members are equal only some members are more equal than others

I'm sure one of those looks like Richard Masters Esquire...

I know kids at that age won't understand, but I'd have loved for him to pat the badge on his shirt and say forever mate

When we win are we going to swap the four trophies in the Bluemoon header for 115

Turns out the statuette of limitations is only a small piece of our defence.

Yep, ADUG failed on cultural awareness with regard to our media in their due diligence. Let's hope they've learnt a lesson.

Liverpool legend loses £300k IR35 appeal

Phil Thompson, the former footballer and pundit on the weekly Sky TV /Soccer Saturday/ programme, has failed to convince the upper tribunal [1] (UT) that

Now there is a banner:

"Sky had the right to require Thompson to express opinions that he did not believe or limit his own opinions"

Now there is a banner:

"Sky had the right to require Thompson to express opinions that he did not believe or limit his own opinions"

can we just shorten it to:

"scouse idiot directed to spout nonsense by sky broadcasting"

actually tbf if we did that they wouldnt know who it related too.

When I see a bird that looks like a duck , walks like a duck and quacks like a duck , I call that bird a duck ! Silva is finished at top level . Stop clutching at straws .

Perhaps you`ve been fucking ducks and not the unfeathered kind.

Unbelievable Jeff.

Not sure there's much to read into that. It's what you'd expect from a regular presenter contract.

The "express opinions he did not believe" part, is the standard for discussion/phone in programs. Nobody listens to two people agreeing for an hour. Either they take opposing sides of an argument, or one is the devil's advocate.

As for "limit(ing) your opinions, if you're a guest, then you can say something outrageous and just not get invited back (and if it's a legal/offensive issue, you'll hear a quick apology). If you're a regular employee, then they'd be expected to have more control. If Sky had received a letter from City threatening legal action if they said X, then they'd be expected to tell their presenters to limit what they say. We know that happens, as various journalists have said they have to be careful what they say about City.

Seriously? A presenter can stimulate debate, but a pundit is there to express his opinions. If not then what is the point? Might as well have the producers there. This information should be as damning to the credibility of Sky and their idiot pundits as the leaked emails were to City. Let's not treat it as if it's normal.
