Everton (A) FA Cup QF | Pre-Match Thread

This is going to be tough for me. My Dad died two days ago and it will be the first City match without him.

He grew up in Moss Side and as a kid would 'jib in' underneath peoples legs to get in the ground. A regular at the old Kippax. Said the greatest moment was the roar when Colin Bell returned from injury.

The first City match I wasn't by his side watching. Fucking hurts.

Hope City win for him. Though it would be typical if they didn't. Xx

Sorry for your loss.
Time, as always, will heal.

If we don't win it I wouldn't mind seeing Everton win it.

I'm not a fan of draws either.

Sorry for your loss mate. I hope we win even more now.

Our players have to watch out for the Oliver factor. Any touch, however feint will have them collapsing to the floor in the full knowledge this cheat of a ref will give them a free kick. And do not lay a single hand on them in the box, will be a penalty yet watch what he gives them free kicks for and the same goes unpunished against us

Backed Everton to qualify at 13/2. You can thank me all later.

its not our fans they are aiming at its the bitters watching
the whole of the football community bar manchester city fans all want us to lose at the weekend

sadly all the controlling media outlets and tv companies are united and liverpool based. even the so called natural pundits want us to lose. the so called city pundits are told to play a part and don't be to over the top backing the blues

There is definitely a bias towards certain teams, as the more successful they are, the more the 'oxygen of publicity' is provided to the broadcaster.
The broadcaster, doesn't really care if the star or team they back is/are money laundering, drug abusing or nasty characters as long as there is some aspect of a story they can latch onto, to keep their brand name prominent, without being involved.
You could consider Mike Tyson or Lance Armstrong for example.
And City? Perhaps the Black Knight in the eyes of the media...
