I think it's fair to say that Simon Green doesn't quite get it. The fact he talks about Danny Mills and his association with City as a positive sums up all that is wrong with the people running the show.
Perhaps Simon should be told that Mills has a serious axe to grind with City...
We refused a letter request a few years back from him asking for a reference to be appointed to his kids school of governors.
He had slagged us for ages and considered him a cheeky **** for even asking.

I think its the opposite mate. And I think that's exactly why he does it. He knows it's pissing City fans off, and he loves it cos it gives them publicity
But when there is just one English team left in the CL, why would you go out of your way to piss off those fans of that club who might be a large part of your audience?I agree coupled with the more positive that it pleases non City fans.
This may bring them more subscriptions which in turn may keep BT on their expensive Sports orientated business plan to oust Sky.

"Slobbering masses of rags and dippers..."Quite. Why this pandering to the slobbering masses of rags and dippers fans who most likely wouldn't even be watching our match?

Love it.
Let us wait and see what happens when the Premier League & Champions League starts. My guess is they will still have as many pundits that are against us as they usually do. If this happens just e-mail them and tell them that you will drop their sports channel, unless they start putting on pundits who are going to be neutral,, providing they haven't played for the team were against. Therefore no more biased rags when we're on your sports channel.
It's fruitless us cancelling,they don't care if we are there or not as they have hoards of rags and dippers as customers and that is who they pander to and they won't sack any pundits becausewe don't like them.I have rung and have a right moan and they gave it to me for £8.99,i hate streaming so i said ok and will turn the volume right down and just watch the game and not the pundits
If we got together and a few thousand of us cancelled at the same time they would take notice other than that the few of us who would cancel will be more than made up for with the fans they pander to,i would prefer to cancel but it's not really practical,i can fully understand those who cancel and do share their frustrations with them and SkyOf course its not fruitless cancelling and that is pretty much the only bit of power a consumer has over an organisation.
If you choose not to do it that is your perogative but lets not try make out cancelling is pointless. You have made an intelligent decision whether your dislike for their coverage is worth losing access to watching matches. Nothing wrong with that.
I dont like them so they wont get a penny from me. But its all about individual choices.

Thats how all movements start with a trickle turning into a tide. I think it has been noted though within BT and is probably one of the reasons for Luca Toma to have the opportunity to interview Mr Green (although it will be viewed negatively regardless). If its not practical thats fair enough and there is nothing wrong in coming to that decision.
