BT Sport

In fairness he slated Clayton for his tackle on Sterling and at the end for Traore's tackle on Nolito.

He really didn't say they should hack City players down, but that they should get stuck into us, which is right, it's the only way they were ever going to get anything from the match, ergo he was saying what everybody really already knew and thought.

He was wholesome in his praise for Aguero, the same for De Bruyne's crossing, and he even had a little moment of man love near the end over David Silva.

But none of that fits the agenda on this thread. They were shocking last season, BT, less so this season, though some of them still can't let go, Savage especially, but today Peter Drury even managed to fit in a reference to Billy Meredith, proving to BT's younger viewers that we actually do have a history that goes way, way back.

I haven't watched any of the pre- or post-match coverage, so I can't possibly comment on that.

An ex city player should not be advocating tackles like that on our players,he was better than usual but that is from a low low baseline
 
Lot of fannys on here. Coverage was ok. Sky however spent first 15 mins riticising Pep for picking strong side today and backing Robbie Savage about lack of crown on Wednesday. A lot of bitterness.

When there is a dearth of intelligent, football-based comments re MCFC, and where we come in for certain criticisms that would not be laid at other clubs' doors, even though the criticism might be more appropriate, you can only come to the conclusion that it is 'bitterness' that drives and informs these knobs.

The BT coverage today was much improved and a lot less biased than last season's outrage, but their coverage leaves a lot to be desired most weeks.

Anyway the positives today:-

Peter Drury is always fair to City and for all his shoutiness can do all their matches on BT for me. His reference to Billy Meredith was a nice touch. Drury is a good professional commentator. There are good commentators out there: Drury, Alistair Mann, Guy Mowbray.

Ince - he is always fair (though he benignly didn't hide his Middlesboring connection). No issue with him since he left the rags. From being a gobshite in his rags days, the more I've heard about him, including from Blues like Paul Lake in his book, the more he seems a decent bloke. Never thought I'd say that.
McPointy - was actually unbiased today which is a first but try not to pay too much attention to him. He's a nob, and he was a disgrace in a City shirt, barring that first game, and he will resume normal biased service on Wednesday, mark my words.

Rachel Brown-Finnis, ex-England Women's goalie said in the studio that she hopes City are rewarded (in the FA Cup) for treating the competition seriously.

Had a decent chat with Ince a while ago, and must admit he was a really nice bloke. Had a lot of good things to say about us and not as many good things about the rags. Always seems to say things as he sees them when doing his pundit job,and, (getting tin hat ready) I quite like him.

Don't forget he's loathed by rags because of playing for Liverpool
 
All those saying Mcpointy was unbiased today, must have missed him saying "thankfully" every time we
misplaced a pass or something didn't quite come off.
