BT Sport commentary v Arsenal (A)

Shortly before they screamed that Laporte has just swung an elbow & should be off only for the replay to show nothing.

Remember when Neville complained about Mane 2 footing Ederson, proof the ears overrule what the eyes can see, 2 years we heard how the Dippers were wronged.
That first bit of commentary, you mentioned, took the biscuit for me.

Keown’s words (roughly): “they’ve (arsenal fans) all seen Laporte’s arm go up there, and he’s (red) done nothing about it”.

Cue replay showing Laporte do no such thing.

I get that Keown is die hard Arsenal - and I can take 1 out of 3 - but when the “friendly” ex blue commentator is that biased finger pointing scouser, it takes the piss. And Darren Fletcher… well Forest Fan my arse.

I’m sure others will have said but MOTD have just been totally objective about it. Both PKs probably should have been checked but their shout wasn’t and they could see why. Easy.
 
He’s definitely a Forest fan. My ex-wife used to be his boss at Century Radio in Nottingham and he does quite a bit of stuff with Dave and Les at the Southbank, who I’ve known for nearly 30 years.

Yeah I think they are just ambitious & know the game of being pro some clubs & anti big bad City. It is how they are considered good at their profession & as journalists they believe they invent the story……..I preferred when they just called the names out & described the decisions, not their opinion on it.
 
The coverage today as already been mentioned was an absolute disgrace from commentators and pundits as bad as I’ve seen and heard,it actually was shocking second half when they started not actually commentating on the game but referring to the incidents in the game over and over and calling out the ref,like others I don’t have BT sport or Sky sports but use IPTV for all the games won’t be getting a penny off me ever the cnuts ..

I know Pigmol don’t often say much but they’ve got a duty of care to protect their ref from that today. They were joking he should he sacked yet he got the big decisions right. I’ve seen less abuse aimed at the ref when they’ve sent the wrong player off or given 3 yellows.
 
Lee dixon was nearly crying In one i saw. they called in Dermot Gallagher for his take and he immediately said it was a penalty.

Dixon had the actual gall to say he didnt care what Dermot thought, he was only concerned if it was a clear and obvious error that VAR saw, this was whilst a slow motion replay was running that showed xhaka firstly trip then pull on a fist full of bernardos shirt.

so dixon was basically happy for the referee to get it wrong And didt want VAR to correct him. Knobhead.
Dermot Gallagher's explanation was perfect. Wasn't too happy with SWP's lukewarm defense of City either. Where is Nigel or some vocal City fan when we need him?
 
We’ve seen this bias before from BT sport - remember Jermaine Jenas during the City v Spuds UCL semi. Got my blood boiling though no much different to Keown today.

Also McPointy’s overheard comments about Wolves.

Back in 2016 they had complaints from City fans and BT claimed they listened to our complaints and said their head of live sport was a City fan. He’s probably been sacked since then.

It’s probably Colin fucking Schindler

Something not right today about the whole game commentary wise and pundit wise BT and it’s panel was a disgrace,was the narrative set up we absolutely want City to lose title still alive and top 4 arsenal well in the mix something wasn’t right ..
 
The worst bit for me was when Jesus was held in the penalty area and the commentators said it was fine. No big inquiry afterwards about why VAR did not review it. It looked like a penalty to me. If it was an Arsenal player fouled in a similar manner would the commentators have said in was fine? Would Jake Humphrey have lead a witch hunt into VAR inconsistency?

The commentary is as much guilty of inconsistencies as VAR.
Keown said defender had his arms wrapped around Jesus but managed to remove them in time (just as the ball was about to reach Jesus)
Keown needs to remember whilst he is a tarquin he is an uneducated one - tries to paint pictures with his limited vocabulary - prick
 
Fletcher is a tosser. Funny how they were complaining about var not overturning their pen shout but then also said var was ruining the game when it overturned ours. Aftv not bt
Fletcher is a talentless t**t - can’t stand the man…

couldn’t believe what I was hearing when he said “I can’t believe they haven’t reviewed that decision”… he did it again for the Bernado penalty and exclaimed he can’t believe that’s been over turned

love the option on Amazon to turn off such drivel as these f**ktards
 
Mad that you can watch the match and it's analysis, yet only find out that Gabriel didn't get his 1st booking for scuffing the spot after watching the highlights on MOTD.

Genuinely gutter level coverage today.
 
BT have been shown up tonight by MOTD.

Gary, Dion and Wrighty made the BT Sport mob, including our very own Joleon, look like a bunch of know-nowts who should never be listened to or taken any notice of ever again.

Don’t give them your money, Blues!
