Media Discussion - 2023/24

Well if we are found guilty Paddy then I hope you have to refund all losing bets with all matches involving City.. We will still be playing as a club however you will be financially fucked ;)

I doubt if Paddy Power give a toss about us.
The PP ad tomorrow will be for some other club.
Ryanair have an ad most morning on the radio, about a different club each day.
The one for us was " Unlike City, we can fill all our seats"

I'm not too worried what they say. Sometimes its better to be talking about us than not talking.

5 Live at the moment - Nedum Onuha, Karen Bardsley, Julien Laurens (no idea who he is) and Matthew Upson talking about today's games and the season so far. No hidden agendas, no sly digs, no bias (Upson perhaps just a little when discussing Arsenal) - just intelligent discussion and light years ahead of the stuff served up on Sky, TNT, MOTD and Bein. Bardsley especially knowledgeable and puts her points across very well. Nedum and Bardsley both very even handed and fair talking about Liverpool, Arsenal, Villa and even United.

As a rule I don’t mind the banter ads from PP as it’s spread around PL clubs, and most of it is nothing more than harmless piss taking.(especially where the Rags are concerned). But this has gone too far.

It's Paddy Power.
They genuinely have a 'Ministry of Mischief' within the organisation that comes up with all sorts of nonsense to get free publicity, hits & clicks and they are very good at it (all be it, it is now much watered down to what it was before they were acquired by the Flutter PLC).
They had a cracker on United and Ten Hag the other day also. Don't take a blind bit of notice whatever Paddy puts out. Just laugh along with it, and take it for what it is: a complete wind-up.

Most of their ads or short videos they do are very funny. See the Arsenal one it’s brilliant. However I think this one is out of order by blatantly mentioned unproved charges

Your penultimate sentence answers your rhetorical question! Just mention “Manchester United” as many times as possible and bingo, you’re hired. It’s not a difficult company line to tow but the lack of footballing morality is a disgrace (or misfortunate if you’re Spanish apparently).

"...not a difficult company line to TOE"

"...not a difficult company line to TOE"

My bad! A bit like “the case has been squashed”. We have a mate who inadvertently comes out with mixed metaphors:

Get your mouse on it (in betting parlance)

Don’t put all your eggs in one box

He’s blowing his own cornet

And many more.

Absolutley!!
Not arsed about PP, they take the piss put of anyone and everyone who's relevant at the time. Just gotta laugh and be proud that little city the club that nobody cares about get mentioned all day and everyday!

In 1974 I was at the swamp to see Denis Law put the rags in Division 2. Why do the media portray this failing outfit as all conquering of all era's ? They had a decade and a half of success and have been pathetic now for over a decade. Why is neville the rat given a soap box on world wide tv to bleed out of his arse how this shouldn't be happening. Why shouldn't it be happening ?
I now watch City away games with a Spanish commentary as I still like to hear the crowd atmosphere but don't have the bias snipes.

Do you think not mentioning them will make them go away? They're there for the foreseeable, if they still constantly bring them up once we're proven innocent then you can complain.

Over here they constantly rib the NY Jets about empty seats when they average 78,000 at home games, shit sticks
