Re: Media bias - football writers awards

We could win every trophy in England over the next 10 years and still none of our players would get any votes.

It just goes towards demonstrating what many of us have known for a long time, football writers are predetermined to be overly complimenatry towards United. The United based bias in the media isn't a myth, something City fans feel exists but in reality does not, it is very real. The fact that anyone could vote Paul Scholes, a man who was retired until January, as having had a better season than, oh, lets say Sergio Aguero, Vincent Kompany, Joe Hart, Yaya Toure or David Silva, 4 of whom made the Premiership team of the year, the other being nominated for both player and young player of the year, is farcical.

Well put. There is no myth, it's very real. And in many cases very obvious.

You only have to watch Sunday Supplement to know that the vast majority of these fuckers know fuck all about football. Their opinions on the game are about as relevant as the resident drunk down at your local boozer.
