These people commentating on City aren't City fans. They aren't bitter. People only hear bitterness because that is what they are listening for.
Michael Owen said we were the best team in the premier league and would win it 3 times last night. He said we were a joy to watch twice.
Not everybody lives in the same City bubble we do.
the major incidents from last night
1. Dawson disallowed goal - he was onside when the ball was played.
2. Penalty and red card - never a pen, never a red card
3. Dawson on Aguero - rough but there was never any intent to use the elbow.
4. Spurs trying to kick lumps out of us. - I'd expect it, it is what happens when you are the best.
On point 4, we may expect it, but we don't expect the TV 'pundits' to essentially condone it. I am not one of the 'agenda' exponents, but Owen is very clearly negative when it comes to us. It's understandable. We have replaced his first love, Man Utd, as the dominant football force and his second love, Liverpool (although those who once adored him now think he is a cnut of epic proportions), have been ousted from the top table by the likes of us and Chelsea. Add to that the fact that we turned him down when he was whoreing himself around with that pathetic self promotion brochure and we find ourself in a situation where he is inherently negative about us. He reminds me a little of Paul Merson a couple of years ago.
He was unqualified for the job but unlike Gary Neville, he has displayed no aptitude for punditry. The mixture of
prejudice and ineptitude should concern BT.
