ITV CL Highlights show....

WTF! Stayed up to watch this and expected the only English team left (City) to be first up, NO!

Then detailed - really deatialed highlights and chat of the Bayern/Athletico game, plus loads of adverts.

City match finally at about 11.15 - but talk about 'blink and you missed it'. The excellent first half was over in a jiffy.

Is this a conspiracy or some contractula f*** up? (I know some match highlights have time limits in the small print).

They always talk about the Wednesday games with brief highlights on the Tuesday games. It'll be the opposite next week.
 
I don't watch any highlight shows or much live football anymore due to the shit biased pundits.

I usually at a city game and if not I watch in a pub where you cannot hear the commentary anyway.

city website only for match highlights

they can fuck right off.
 
Much as I enjoy their pain, the way City are being portrayed in the media is just plain fucking wrong imo & it makes me angry that they can get away with it.

Haven't even bothered to watch this because I expected it.
I'm with you on this. I know it shouldn't bother me but it has got to the stage where when something good or big happens to us, situations where you normally might want to switch on radio or TV to milk things a bit for 24 hours and extend the good feeling, all you get is brought down by the media negativity. I got to my car after the match on Tuesday, turned on 5live and it was a trailer so switched to Talksport and literally the first sentence I heard was Cundy saying, "you could hear a pin drop in the Etihad tonight". I just thought fuck this and put some music on. It would have been nice to have been confident about listening to some reasonable, balanced talk about the match but seems like most media outlets just aren't prepared to give us an even break these days. The worst thing is that I think our coverage had been fairly negative, broadly speaking, since the takeover but I assumed it would get better every year, especially once we started winning titles, after all that is pretty much the way it went for Chelsea but in the last two years I would say it has just got worse and worse and in the last 6 months in particular, has become relentlessly negative.
 
Don't know for sure but that was possibly down to money, they have to pay for the license to show it and it probably costs a damn sight more to show City's game in the UK then the BM v AM match. Blame it on Sky/BT for driving the costs ever up rather than an agenda.

Yes it is and no your not suffering with a mental illness called paranoia
 
Gonna be controversial here but I like Keane as a pundit, not afraid to say what he thinks. Much better than the other so called pundits these days

You have to be honest - there are far worse the Keane. He has his own take on things that is at time a bit bizare but I think he is just calling things as he sees them which is all you want from a pundit. He is always a bit edgy though.
