Media bias against City

[@BluePhil8]

make sure you don't look at today's back page of The Sun, it mentions £58m for Martial so won't fit in well with yesterdays agenda rantings, keep it Merson based for now guys

Any other papers or news outlets quoting the full fee or just the Sun?

They had it at £36 million the day before,even though everybody knew what the real price was. The only reason they're reporting it as £58 million now is becuase of the abuse sky have been getting.

I spotted on Sky Sports that the outgoing transfer fee on Liverpools page for Sterling was £49M,but on the City page it was only £44M.Strange ?

And the player himself has mentioned the fee in public.

It's working folks, keep at it. Don't let the bastards get away with anything.

Positive article in The Independent from Ian Herbert on our transfer template. Makes a good read.
Sorry but don't know how to link it!

Nice read, message might slowly be sinking in....

Manchester United can learn lessons from the transfer template of rivals Manchester City

My point exactly. Does anyone else think that if us blues were not shaming these b*stards into correcting these glaring anomalies that anything would change ? Witout exception the majority of media outlets were quoting the lower figure now all of a sudden we see them quoting the figure accurately or at least inline with how they presented our transfer fees.

Some may have got so used to doing the Ferguson shuffle for years, without thinking, that they don't even consider what they are doing beforehand, just do it automatically.

I don't actually want them to kiss our arses all the time like they have over the years with Utd, Liverpool etc. Just be fair & honest give credit/criticism to City where it's due rather than acting as a propaganda tool for others.

am I reading this right, The Sun and Sky are being influenced by a few rabid City supporters? This is the organisation owned by Rupert Murdoch? Who has just re-employed Rebecca Brooks! Crikey.

I have to say I'm particularly fond of how some in the press ignore the way United's net spend is lowered through the brilliance of flogging off a fine player at a big loss
