Pellegrini bad news for City's English players!
He's not even here yet let alone left English players out of his team.
No author to the MUEN article but it is virtually word for word to that of Joe Bernstein in todys Fail on Sunday.
How low can this so called newspaper stoop.


Why are you surprised at this anti city propaganda from the MUEN ?

Is that your own head,or have you borrowed it off an idiot ???
 
Fair play to Stuart Brennan clearly they have jobs to do but its good to see they accept when limits have been over-stepped

One of the issues for journalists are sites like News Now as we fans are very quickly able to identify the sources of stories and so can see where stories come from so copying is no longer tolerated without naming the source otherwise the perpetrators can be identified

It's no surprise is it feck em all just a bunch of hacks
It's water off a ducks back to me city never get good press
FACT
 
Saying FACT at the end of a statement, even in capital letters, doesn't make something true, you know.
There have been many, many positive City stories in the press, especially in the MEN.
But you choose not to see them, as they don't fit your prejudice.

The main problem is that too many are like sheep.It starts off with one person making a negative post and too may follow,without ever having read the MEN,based on you being a Red,your Manager,Your Exec,your .... :)
Cheers Mate.
 
FWIW the rags only had three players that started 50% or more of their league games.

Rooney 22, Ferdinand 26 and Carrick 34.

The likes of Duncan, Smalling, Young, Zinedine, Welbeck and Scholes averaged 13 starts each.

Come off it Stuart. This article is a prime example of a thread that you were taken to task with on the mancityfans.net forum a few months ago and you categorically denied that this kind of behaviour occurred. This is one of many many instances over the years where negative inferences are written about City by the MUEN and that is why we have called it the MUEN for donkeys years.

Fair play for you asking the hack to take it off the site. Maybe he/she should publish an apology but I certainly will not be holding my breath in anticipation. That paper has always been rag biased and always will be. It's parent company are very rag orientated so what else can we expect...............

By the way numpty,you should read the thread,we are talking about English players only.

Namecalling. Well after reading your post I know what level you are at.

If you dont compare all players, how are you gonna decide who is a benchwarmer and who is not.
And at what magical percentage are you considered a benchwarmer or not.
And if you come in as a substitute, well you arent on the bench anymore.
Instead you bring something to the team effort. Does that count or not.

Well your post have so many flaws and if you actually did make up your mind on that unsufficient (my second language may have flaws, but still make sense) information the laugh is on you.

Could City even fill a starting eleven using your logic?

A team full of benchwarmers. No wonder United won and City got knocked out from the UCL group.
Ah diddums a numpty and he gets all hurt !! Bwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
fucking read the thread soft boy.We are making comparisons against the article on England players within the squad,no fucker else.
Unsufficient ?? WTF !!
We are discussing starts not substitutions,thats the whole point of the debate.These players will not get as much minutes playing time as they have done in the past.Whats so difficult to understand about that ??

After reading your response, sure, I´m the one thats got hurt.

Actually, its mostly you who tried to do an comparision, most people just complain about the articles.

So now it sounds like its a comparision between english players within the squad. Well no that arent the case.

Less playing time than recent years? Well your post didnt include statistics from another season.

So why would anyone take your post seriously when you arent able to use the simpliest logic, that to compare something, you need something to compare with.

Btw, your numbers for Milner is slightly wrong.

Wait, you say we talking starts, then you go on about "minutes playing time".
Oh, but then your magical logic excludes substitutions? Right, benchwarmer was it not? And if the benchwarmer plays, that doesnt count...

You are very consistent. Make up your mind next time before you post.

I didn't deny that mistakes occurred. This was a sloppy use of the "Gossip" genre of article, made by one individual without reference to anyone else (the lad who did it is a Blue, by the way).
The "Gossip" articles are meant to reflect stories in other papers, usually transfer rumours. The way this one was written, and set out, made it look like we were saying it - that has now been rectified.
You see agenda and intent when, in truth, there was just somebody under pressure, trying to get a high quota of stories up on the website, and making a mistake.
United fans flag up what they perceive as instances of anti-United bias - can you tell me why that should be?
Some Blues will persist in thinking we are anti-City, and some Reds will believe the polar opposite, no matter what we do or say.

Stuart, genuine question.

I personally don't believe there's anything like the differential in reporting from the MEN as others on here do between City and united. I don't live in Manchester, but I'm back fairly frequently and my mum and dad get it delivered so I read it when I'm back and like all regional newspapers it has a style of reporting which is positively disposed towards local clubs. Although there are going to be endless disputes about the City/united supporter numbers in the city and/or its surrounding hinterland I think it's fair to say there are fans in plentiful numbers for both clubs, so reporting negatively on either, to any significant extent, seems unusual to say the least.

Against that backdrop (and so you don't have to be defensive!) what do you think about the relative reporting on the two clubs in the national press? Clearly I am asking that question because I have formed a pretty robust view myself, but I would be interested what your views were.

It seems to me that united, for reasons of their national preeminence, and City because of their arriviste status are treated very differently, to the point of parody, at times.

Cant believe that we have so many people SWP who become upset because I used the word "numpty".Sensative souls mate and I assume some have lead very sheltered lives,unlike you and me !! ;)<br /><br />-- Mon Jun 10, 2013 2:55 pm --<br /><br />
