We’ve definitely got one journalist who is honest about City - John Cross from Mirror.

Gives it then about the cup final & how Pep genius was a new way of smashing gunners.
Also - airs the theory that it’s now ANYONE BUT ARSENAL - City now not the most hated club.

Basically Arteta was taught a lesson.

James “erm kinda” Cross.

Writes like a genius talks like a 7 year old.

I think he’s just straight talking without using some of the pompous rhetoric applied by most self serving journalists

BTW - Why do you say “James?”
 
the idiot Julian Laurens from ESPN who loves Arsenal is saying - as a fact - that Pep is going at the end of the season EVEN THOUGH ITS REALLY JUST HIS OPINION. He really is sick about our improvement but adamant we won’t catch Arsenal because they’re too good :-) Insists players are having to deal with the knowledge that Pep is going in May.

The other guy Jonathon Northcroft showed his incompetence when trying to refute John Cross’ accusation about arsenals reliance on set pieces ( boring football) by saying city are also one of the best at set pieces. He’s obviously never watched us :-) or read this:

Arsenal and Liverpool rank as best and worst from set-pieces as Premier League clubs embrace trend - Between the Lines

Between the Lines takes a look at this seasons increase in set-piece goals as Premier League clubs try to give themselves an edge; Arsenal are most effective side, Liverpool least, but what are they doing differently? And where does every team rank?

I thought the (sympathetic) headline was from the London Evening Standard at first.

When in reality, the MUEN should have called Arsenal and their players out for cheating. The Arsenal players will be fit for this weekends PL game.

The only other shit house who withdrew players from internationals was the piss can. Artetta is bricking it. To do move like this when their next game is Southampton in the FA Cup. What a fucking shit house of a manager and a club.
I've got to ask the question, is this move by Arsenal legal in football, if players are not injured or ill ? But obviously Arsenal will be backed up by the Prem League and the FA.

Arteta is creating a drama again. With Pep it is always business as usual no matter how much pressure the club is under on and off the field. Arteta is reacting too emotionally as usual. He has weak leadership skills and transmits stress to his players (and staff). This mass withdrawl of players has just put the players under more pressure to perform. Arsenal with their stop/start football, diving and cheating, manager time-outs, are crippled by self-induced anxiety. So is their fanbase. Arteta has made another blunder by making it "all about them" again.

I dont know why I bother but I just reported some cretin called Keith on the BBC HYS section about Phil Foden who posted "City are Proven Self Confessed Cheats", needless to say I got the reply that the BBC didnt have a problem with that post,
its a real shame but the BBC really do seem to be turning into a Shit Stain of an organisation.

Just a update, I decided to appeal the moderators decision that saying and publishing "City are Proven Self Confessed Cheats" was ok, I filled out a appeal form asking when City had been found guilty of cheating? and why was the comment not removed,
It took them a couple of days to get back to me but this morning I got a Email from the BBC which said "In this instance, We Believe the Moderator made the correct decision so we will be unable to uphold your appeal"
I know I was wasting my time I was just interested if the BBC would accept they made a mistake, obviously not,
I thought maybe saying Cheats was acceptable these days so posted "liverpool are cheats" on a HYS this morning about the Dippers, Needless to say it was removed in less than 2 minutes :-)
I am sure the club could wipe the floor with the BBC if they could be bothered.

Nothing will probably happen, but I really do feel you should send City copies of your correspondence and the BBCs responses.

Cant help but feel it would be a waste of time, City as a club seem happy to accept all the shit being thrown our way & us supporters just have to put up with it?

I seriously don’t care about HYS in a negative way. On the plus side though it is evidence that the Rags,Dippers and Tarquins are hurting big time.
115 remains their crutch for the time being. And when it finally folds they will just revert back to post-CAS e.g. brown envelopes etc.

Did the moderator give any rationale as to that decision? Did you ask for rationale?

Exactly this, he’s dipping for the line & that’s when the players tighten up…… no mistakes, don’t do anything daft. Pep will be saying be brave & the players feel it.

Sorry its a bit long winded but this is exactly what I put in my appeal,

So when "Keith" Says "City are Proven Self Confessed Cheats" thats ok? That meets all your Criteria for being a good post? Could you supply me with any information about when City were found guilty of being "Self confessed Cheats" otherwise its just a complete lie which appart from being off the actual topic is also abusive & a Lie,
If you are going to have a HYS section please at least try and keep it sensible, I know all football fans are going to have different opinions but you are happy for people to tell complete Lies and get away with it?

I then recieved the reply posted above this morning, I know its a waste of time but I thought I would test the appeal system, fully expecting a reply to say they had removed the post, I guess its a free for all on the BBC as long as you aim your lies & Abuse at City & non of the other clubs?,
I just hope if we win the case & are found not guilty City will take some action but I have serious doubts they will.

So they just responded to your complaint with ‘no it’s fine’ without any explanation as to why the ‘cheats’ post was ok? Worth another complaint mate. They should have at least explained why it didn’t break their rules.

Yup, that is what they do. Sometimes, you can drag it out to 3 or 4 replies, but ultimately, they shut it down at their end eventually.
