Media bias against City

[chesterbells]

Another gem from Sunday Supplement.

The guys who haven't really given Pellegrini the respect he has deserved over the last couple of seasons are now making the point that he hasn't been given the respect he has deserved over the last couple of seasons.

Classic

Yes there are empty seats because he scored 90 seconds into second half and like people said they are still downing pints etc, what I don't get is people who are still drinking in the concourse 20 mins into the game, don't know why they bother coming tbh, just find it bizzare they can't do without a drink for 90 mins.

There were a good few mate but I'm putting it down to the holiday season peak for now

53k is a really good crowd. I generally answer the red cunts who obsess about "empty seats" that I go to our games and they don't go to theirs so why the fuck should I answer their fuckwit questions about empty seats, usually shuts the cunts up

City are probably the only football club in the entire world who will get slammed for only having 53k people attending a game against Watford.

"Another thing we've learnt from yesterday's game" reports: Sterling has already cost us £49m. I'm gutted that I missed our Champions League victory; can't believe it wasn't more widely reported....

As for the crowd: it's the biggest home crowd I've seen at a game in 36 years watching City (as I didn't go to the Chelsea game) and 53-thousand odd is still 97% of capacity. And As for empty seats when Sterling scored, I'd just sat down - did the second half start early or something, as I clocked the goal at 16:02, and I thought half time usually lasts more than 14 minutes?!

Yes, and united are the only football club in the world who think most of their (659 million) fans come from Manchester

People enjoy their football in all manner of different ways. Why would that be a problem for you?

Funny thing is - coming up from Cornwall you notice these things - when we used to come up to Maine Road there were always loads of Scum shirts about on the streets. Haven't seen a one in the last couple of years. Lovely

Was on holiday in Cornwall last year John, went into a shop to buy ice cream for the kids and the Cornish shop keeper wearing a scum shirt asked my kids why they were wearing City shirts, my 9 year old (8 at the time) said because we are City fans from MANCHESTER, why are you wearing a united top? He also said he wanted to buy his ice cream from a different shop, bless him

There were plenty who spent the whole match at the bar at Maine Road prior to the introduction of all day drinking in 1988! Some right sorry bastards to be seen at the bar back then.

Were you one of the aforementioned Maine Road 'all-match drinkers', mate ? ;-)

For the record I was born in Oldham and moved here aged 7, just after we won the league in 68. There's a few local City fans here in my generation because we were good. Missed 30 years somewhere though. Hence the twat you met

Hard though it may be for some of our more recent Blues to comprehend - there were times when the only way to "enjoy" watching City was through the comfort of a jar of anaesthetic or two!

Sounds like North Cornwall. Too much Devon influence.

Anesthetic tastes better than a pint of Greenall Whitley, mate.

I remember vomiting after a single pint of Boddies from the old Kippax. Possibly not kept too well

Chanel 7 news over here for their Sunday round up ran through a table with the scores on then proceeded to show Chelsea, dippers and lastly....Bournemouth!

TV3 News, in Ireland this morning, showed every goal scored yesterday the Premier League, bar our two.
Then they showed the league table and the presenter sighed "And Man City trundle on at the top..." It was the only mention of us, at all.
I do love the taste of their bitter tears on my Sunday morning fry up.

The only place they can sneak a few pints without their wives finding out !!
