Media bias against City

I do enjoy listening to Paul dickov, always offers a positive view on city and a balanced view. Just on talk sport now and was really good.
 
On another note, is anyone else looking forward to watching "For the love of myself" on BBC1 tomorrow? This is a documentary featuring David Beckham playing a game in seven continents in seven days.

In defence: the cause of this isn't Goldenshite's obsessive vacuous need to shove his gurning mug in front of every camera, but it was a promo event for Unicef.

Sadly, it's billed and sold as Saint Goldenshite's Saintly Wonderfulness, and therefore gets primetime billing. Rarely has someone been less able to read a script convincingly.

Hmmm... *strokes chin*
Didn't the People's Princess do some heavily promoted charidee work for Unicef shortly before being bumped-off in a tunnel in Paris?

Not sure if it was the same journo but one of them did a piece about De Bruyne being a shit buy and a shit player the day after the Arsenal game.
 
I often think there's not enough United related documentaries on the BBC these days. It feels a bit like we're being a bit short changed on our licence fees with only the features on Rooney, Ferguson, the class of 92, and Beckham this year.
Tsk ric.

As if there could be such a thing as 'enough' United related content. They do their best to meet an insatiable appetite for rag related programmes, but the demand is just too great.
 
And yet again the DeBruyne fee is inflated. Someone will come on here in a while and say we are 'too sensitive' or simply 'soft'
You're too sensitive and you're soft.
:-)

The money angle, whilst a bit hackneyed at this stage, is fair enough in this instance. I took the article (well, it's more of a list than an article, really) more as being in praise of Leicester than a condemnation of our spending.

Not only is the DeBruyne fee inflated but the Sterling fee is as well and don't get me started on the standard £10m increase on Mangala's fee.
It's quite fascinating how they use the highest fee from either TransferMarket an Soccerbase for any player...

Did they do it when they played Chelsea or United?

I know what you mean but I honestly have no idea. I would imagine that the meltdown at both of those clubs would have been the dominant theme of any pre-match articles.
There's nothing like that drama at City right now. The days of actually considering the footballing merits if both sides and making a prediction are long gone from the British Press unless some mega-bookie has conveniently placed a half page ad underneath the article.
There IS a legitimate contrast in the cost of assembling both sides and it IS to Leicester City's credit that they are in the title race at Christmas. It's fair comment.
I know it's frustrating that all of our advances and latter-day achievements are constantly framed by the money stories but I honestly think you're (wait for it...) being too sensitive on this occasion.





Oh! And soft! :-)
