Media discussion - 2025/26

You have to wonder who is manipulating all this positive coverage of utd yesterday. I thought both utd and villa were dreadful.

But you have to wonder what is going on with the collective positivity around utd from the punditry stooges. They have won 2 games in 2 months - and one of those was against the worst team in PL history - yet somehow it’s all positive coverage ?

No European football as well as struggling in the league (again) whilst having more rest in between games than most.
Its all out 'lets try and keep them relevant' by our unbiased media

Their shot on target if I remember correctly was from their new unbelievable, amazing WC Scouse kid who aggressively shot straight into the arms of the keeper from 20 yards out.

Brave kid.

Brave kid.

Needs to be growing up in Liverpool.

I've heard the same phrase repeated verbatim from various pundits and outlets, how does that happen? And the phrase is.......the Premier league is better having a successful man ushited.

It stems from all the media for stupid folk.
Talksport often repeat it, Sky sports often repeat it as does TNT.
Basically all the mainstream who are terrified of one of their cash cows going to shit.

Its great as far as I’m concerned because it builds on the illusion that they are “Man-U” the biggest and the best, let them believe it, it’s their biggest weakness they believe the can get any manager, any player because it’s “Man-U” When everyone knows that’s no the case, living in the past built on 25 years of GPC Kids are at high school now who have never seen them win anything of major significance

So if big Erl earns less in two weeks than they needed to save their club, what’s the fuckin problem ?? It should read per minute not weeks :-)
Another pathetic attempt at schoolboy journalism.., !

...and the jump from Haaland to comparing clubs reads like Erling is owned by an oil rich state. Wonder if he knew?

Even a 4-4 draw at home to a side hopelessly out of form is hailed as a 'victory' because it was an exciting game (allegedly).

Probably not :-)

A "brand" and a "cash cow" correctly identify the roles that the rags hold within the media income streams, hence the desperation by these shameless parasites to "polish the turd" in the most disingenuous manner possible.


Nothing else of note to report.

Although I did just buy some Gouda, manchego and Comte that just won't eat themselves...

While it's not a conscious act, the natural breakdown and transformation within cheese by microbes is a form of "self-consumption" that creates the varieties we love. So they actually will eat themselves and there is actually no need for you to get involved.

Same can be said for Vimpto, because like cheese, Pop Will Eat ltself..

These idiots on SKY transfer show make me laugh.
Semenyo would need to know Pep is staying.
Ffs does he know that Amorin or Slant will be there, fuckin idiots.

Ah, but see, that buys into the narrative that the only reason he'd sign for City over the others is because of Pep

So they are happy to prostitute themselves for the Dollar.
I really cannot decide between the two which I would flatten first.-:)

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

So according to Kaveh. Semenyo is going to choose Liverpool

 

[Xhavenjoe]

He speaks so slowly by the time he has finished his drawl the transfer season could be over.

 

[uwe rosler 28]

The only 1 I listen to regarding the rags I'd Keane he's the closest u can get to speaking the truth about them. He shot the the pundits and host yesterday straight after the game.

Everyone chooses Livarpool, until they don't choose Liverpool :)

Interesting looking article in the Mail about how City time their runs for the second half of the season. Or at least that's what I imagine it's about but it's behind a pay wall. If anyone can do that archive thing...
