What is it with Mills, Hinchcliffe and Richards that they have such a dislike for the club? Is it that they are prepared just to toe the line for the money?

You answered your own question there.

Didn't milner get a rating out of ten one week when he either wasn't in the squad or was on the bench and didn't come on?
I'm sure that happened, maybe someone could correct me.

There was a newspaper report that City fans unsportingly booed him in a game against Liverpool at the Etihad. Which was quite shocking at the time as he wasn't even playing and if my memory is correct, wasn't even there.

I don't understand what your saying/asking?

Normally the scouse and rags run BBC opinions, you'd have thought that even if the scouse were shit they'd get 7 out of 10 scores.

Wasn't it a testimonial. But you're right, he pulled out of it in the days before and was nowhere near the stadium

Don’t forget Stuart Pearce in that list.

I just don’t get Hinchcliffe at all. Surely somebody at Sky must be looking at feedback he gets - not just from City but everybody.

Spends every game criticising everything. The time when he was explaining what Haaland should have done to score yesterday was the moment he jumped the shark.

It was Kompany's testimonial

The Express. The infamous Charlie Clitlicker if memory serves………

Correction - Man City fans boo James Milner - 19.09.19

In an article headlined 'Why are Man City fans booing Liverpool star James Milner in Vincent Kompany testimonial?' and published on September 11 2019 we claimed that James Milner was booed by Manchester City supporters when he 'touched the ball during the Vincent Kompany's testimonial.'

The whole of the BBC? Wow, are they reform or Labour? Where do they stand on the license fee? Odd though because my brother in law rag is convinced the BBC hate them.

 

[give it to gordon]

The BBC player ratings are determined by its readers, and hardly any City fans bother with them these days so not very likely to get an unbiased assessment

I always give the rags all 10 out 10 when they lose

Probably because when they played for City, the club hadn't begun to dominate the Premier League ?
Perhaps they think they missed out on the glory and a bigger wage ?
Mills, particularly, seems a bitter beggar...

All cunts.

It's like the game yesterday, Townsend had decided that Cash was going to be MOTM before the game. As it happens he was probably right, but they all do it, every game.

 

[Gazza]

All cunts.

All fullback cunts.

Richards was here when we won 2 league titles, granted it wasn't in the Pep era but he saw quite a bit of success.

Did Danny go for a Brazilian..

the lad in midfield was motm he got in way of everything Onana ?

I listened to Talksport for 10 mins yesterday morning and noticed a clever little snide tactic by Custis on his show. I presume Henry Winter had been positive about City - which they countered with a text from a listener saying nothing City have done should be applauded - 115 - cheating etc. Custis finished by saying “City APPARENTLY claim they are innocent”

Job done for them. The ‘text’ probably written by one of the production team

I shouted plastic Geordie **** when I heard that.

 

[TinFoilHat]

"Emery has shown the PL how to stop Pep from winning matches."

Only heard hairy handed nonce telling the world via media how long balls and running through Van Dick guarantees goals against the scousers.

That's so unlike his namesake.

Did you then rock backward & forwards in your armchair until your Horlicks arrived.
