Media persecution of Raheem Sterling

Kylie nude you say?

Must admit, I did get sidetracked.

He's had the tattoo since September. Took me about 2 minutes to find that out on getty images, so nothing particularly new about "Ace's sick new tat" as the Sun put it.

One thing I did notice as well is that the AP photographer at England's training camp knew a story when he saw one, took a big close up shot of the tattoo to sell to the papers.

Beyond a joke.

Try telling that to the hundreds of innocent kids each year killed by semiautomatic tattoos.

 

[TonyM]

Although that said it's not semiautomatic tattoos that kills, its ink.

Fuck the sun and fuck England.

Raz will be player of the tournament.

Definitely think the tide has turned. Paper isn't even out yet and it's being universally condemned on social media by fans and journalists/pundits.

I think he should be dropped from the England squad also.

1. So he doesn’t have to suffer the indignity of yet another early WC exit for England.
2. Because when said inevitable early exit happens, gutter press will find a way to blame him whether his fault or not.

I’d bet my house on both of the above happening.

Can't believe this shite paper has not gone out of business yet. Anyone who buys it needs to give their head a wobble. The club needs to ban their journalists from attending our press conferences as well.

Well done the English press, making stories to unsettle your own players before the World Cup.
