Media bias against City

[Shirley]

Total bullshit story. With tickets costing £50 - two months' wages for the average Vietnamese - who the fuck is going to buy them just to burn them? If this incident actually ever happened some media twat has bought them and paid a local to publicly burn them.

Absolutely, we know how the media works.
Rumour has it they first asked him to set himself on fire but after he refused they gave him 10 tickets and said ok burn them instead ;)

to be honest I couldn't care a fucking flying fig that sky, bbc, mirror, sun ,mail express don't like us, put us in the moneybags team, that's there problem, I am [us] are Manchester city fans- supporters we know what the team is about, where we are going, what we are going to win, we are here to stay now and fuck them all because sooner then the will think, they will be with us maybe not this year or the next, but they will jump on the Manchester city wagon when they know that we are not going away, a bit like us fans, being there done that all the way in the third tier and still here now,

I have a feeling that this is not new. An article in the Nazigraph today about top 10 clubs for financial stability talks about Norwich and says...Despite the fact that Carrow Road will be hosting the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal this season, the supporters have not been fleeced for the privilege - season-ticket prices have been frozen for the second year in a row as a “thank-you from the Club to fans in the 80th anniversary year of Carrow Road”.
It is subtle but just crops up everywhere these days.

Mirror today. Luke Shaw 27m to come good. Funny that sterlings price always quoted with add ons included but Shaw is not. We need to win CL and PL twice before we cough up the extra. Shaw add ons range from 1m (mirror) to 6m (Express and Mail) and only based on appearances. This happens every time. In addition the lad is crap but hardly gets any scrutiny. Media bias alive and kicking.

One from Yahoo today....I know I shouldn't click....

In talking about Carrick:

".... the signings of Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin will lessen the burden on the England midfielder"

Imagine how that would be reported of an English City player....

".... the signings of Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin will turn the England midfielder into a bench-warmer" ??

The media are in denial about the rags result last night. No mention on talkshite on 7 o'clock news, little about the goals on my twitter account. Ladyman saying it's just a preseason friendly, it's about fitness. I just compare that to the delight expressed by the hacks in repeating our Real Madrid score.

I heard the same about an hour earlier. Couldn't help thinking it was passed off as matter of fact. Unlike our world-ending defeat to Real of course.

Funny how MEN, Sky Sports News, Talksport and the like barely mention the RAG's having one of their players (Di Maria the noodle) going on strike yet when it is Tevez having a golf in Argentina it was headline news for weeks !! cnts.
