[Chris in London]

He absolutely did write in terms that suggested the club was guilty of something. Would say it was shortly before the CAS verdict landed.

I remember calling him a wankstain for so doing.

In fairness, you calling a journalist a “wankstain” doesn’t really narrow it down that much

That’s not fair. I use it quite sparingly. Reckon I’ve ascribed that to two or three journalists in my time on here. I think that narrows it down a bit!

Thought the female and the guy with the mad hair actually asked proper post match questions. They’ll never get a job at the BBC or Sly

Seen the female on SSN many times

Lucky trillion dollar City lead at the break courtesy of a comedy own goal after a stunning Juve equalizer had silenced the sparse Ickle City support

Similar to what Migs and Liew are saying on sly sports

Absolutely shocking by those bitter fuckers.

You can tell they are hurting when we are only judged against perfection.

75% possession
24 shots
5 goals

…….. not perfect

‘City Beats Old Lady’….

Juventus in 7 goal thriller

And why this is good news for Liverpool..........

 

[blueste41]

Well that performance is going to upset the media.

Can see the BBC Sports headline :-
"City peak too early, their squad will be exhausted by this meaningless, Infantino vanity project".

Sky will no doubt trumpet that Liverpool will win the title by Easter, again this season...

Wonder how the MEN will shoehorn the Trafford Tramps into title contenders...

No idea with regards to Sky and the MEN but you couldn't have been more wrong regarding the BBC.

Club World Cup 2025: Man City lay down marker with hammering of Juventus

The Club World Cup may have had a lukewarm reception in some parts, but Manchester City did their best to kindle interest with a statement victory over Juventus on Thursday.

Thought exactly the same of the lad...some good questions.

 

[Blue Mist]

VOOMER was fuming with the commentary. Even you are happy!

I didn't understand the negative comments about DAZN.
They didn't add the price tag on every time they named a City player, they didn't have Spitty and the other prick. No outright gobby rag like Ferdinand, in fact no hate at all.
I'd take the camera issues they had over shots of some ex dipper in the stand and 5 minutes of the maganger picking his nose like sky give us, or tnt's adverts for future events plastered across the screen as City attack.

 

[hertsblue]

A good report by the Beeb.City thrash Juventus.

I note they have gone quiet on the crowd attendance now, seen like there were over 54k during a working day kick off time and the heat. Madrids game got 64k but was an evening kick off over there

North West Tonight briefly mentioned the result last night, but reported that the match had been played in Italy!

The commentators were much better than sky no digs that I picked up on, just nice impartial comments but, knowledge is always key and he didn't know Kidd was with us after the rags or mainly with us. There was something else said as well on another subject but, I can't remember what it was now.

Overall, 9/10.

 

[M12Blue]

Thought Calum Wilson and Shay were pretty good too

I watched the DAZN extended highlights on YouTube this morning with South American (Argentinian?) commentary.

Goooooooooooooooooalll!!! Savinhoooooooooooo!

Far more entertaining!

Maybe he/she watching a different broadcast because. I thought DAZN was a refreshing change, both in the studio and the on pitch stuff. The woman doing post match was decent, too.

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

I don't go on the BBC sports website, I still use ceefax/teletext on my TV.

Top story "Real Madrid beat RB Salzburg to reach CWC last 16" and the last story is "Ugly scenes as Inter beat River Plate to reach CWC last 16"

Nowhere in between is there a single mention of us on there. Last night was clearly a figment of my imagination.

Even at our lowest point were we ever as fucking bitter as those childish knobs at rag central Salford? Bitter childish cunts!
