Rio tends to be supportive of City, a fan even (given his Man U affiliation) and Joleon Lescott is just a great guy. The pundit panel was very different to the commentary nonsense.Bloody hell, Match of the Day calling it like it is. Remarkable how much Keown and Ferdinand and BT have set the narrative all day.
You are right, I rather naively thought they had more of a sense of humour and humility than our north western neighbours but yesterday has proved me wrong.The Tarquins are and always have been as self-entitled and arrogant as the Rags and Dippers.
All 3 have benefitted hugely from outside investment in their history and every rule change around the distribution of revenue has been to their gain.
All 3 entitled red shirts are crying like babies because someone else has muscled in on the success that they think is rightfully theirs.
There is a connection there though, Keown spent a long time at Arsenal and Shearer is a real dyed in wool Newcastle legend. As long as they broadly exhibit impartiality except in a few select incidents I think that is acceptable. This is where McSpitty, McPointy, RatFace, CamelFace and Ginger fall short.Yeah but a couple of weeks ago MOTD led by the sulking Shearer went on and on about Ederson not conceding a pen v Newcastle as though it was one of the greatest miscarriages of justice ever seen. They’re all as bad as each other
On the Arsenal penalty claim it was actually Keown who first accepts that Eddie probably just got to the ball. He was disappointed of course, being a Gunner, but he was fair. The other two were bad, McPointy said Eddie caught the back of Odergaard’s foot (even after we saw the replays) so I have no idea what he was seeing, and the main commentator was using phrases like “he (Eddie) left his leg out” which means something else to me, it’s a term meaning an intention to foul or being careless, which was clearly not the case. He also was the one who kept going back to the incident and highlighting who the VAR fella was, even after their own expert (Walton) explained it was all in order.Rio tends to be supportive of City, a fan even (given his Man U affiliation) and Joleon Lescott is just a great guy. The pundit panel was very different to the commentary nonsense.

I was expecting Wrighty to have a massive rant about the “penalty” but fair play to MOTD they explained it without the histrionics, clear bias and red tinted glasses BT had to offer, which was an utter disgrace throughout, Keown shouldn’t be allowed near any of our games again, while not as bad as the BT CL debacle of a few seasons back when they got Scholes & Rio to be pundits on a City CL game, Keown was clearly leading the narrative on the commentary.
He liked the last post in the conversation, so it is at an end for me lolJohnny Tapped is very strange.
Not very subtle, is it?Which Club do you support?
