Not that it matters to this thread but never really socialist tbf, was founded by liberals and has always sided with the liberals or neo-liberals, only backed labour in the 80s/90s when it adopted a more neo-liberal agenda.The Guardian aspiring to be Talksport. Born as a socialist paper in Manchester. Emboldened by the Peterloo massacre. Now descended into a shell of a publication taking it's lead from social media.
Can you imagine the spineless **** saying something similar about a group of supporters that point the finger of blame at the SAS?'Beyond that, a frightening calm. There is a school of thought out there that City is a club driven by grudges and enmities, fuelled by antagonism and spoiling for scraps at any opportunity. Perhaps this is true at a boardroom level, or on the wild frontiers of the internet, where City fans remain unrivalled in their capacity to nurture conspiracy theories and illusory slights, desperate to be hated.' :-)
as he is a red scouse cult member I doubt it.Can you imagine the spineless **** saying something similar about a group of supporters that point the finger of blame at the SAS?
Not sure I'm aware of this insightful Grimsby follower - surely he's not broken rank from the masses..........This is exactly how the abusers in an abusive relationship work. Abuse, then blame the victim.' oh look at the city fans moaning about a perceived injustice'
As witnessed in that excellent youtube video by the Grimsby fan, we're not all paranoid tin foil hatters, it's a fact we are getting an endless stream of unjustified shit.
This **** even manages to contradict himself in one article, stating 'city fans are desperate to be hated' whilst slagging us off.
****.
The debate can be put to bed right here, the 100 point team is the best pl team of all time, as thats the metric that the pl is judged on, nobody gets a most stylish trophy (although lets not give the dippers any ideas), nobody avoids relegation because they tried really really hard, it is solely based on points and the team that has got the most ever is the best ever and that for all but the most stupid of media and other fans is where the discussion begins and ends.Is going unbeaten that great ? It sounds amazing but if you look at it, 12 draws wasn't it.
Would a team that drew every match and got relegated be as great as that arsenal side ? Both go unbeaten.
They way they are reported upon suggests a collective membership across the Fourth Estate. By any objective measure, the group of supporters with the greatest capacity to nurture conspiracy theories and illusory slights are Liverpool fans. There are countless examples of this and it is a course of conduct that goes back 40 years, when they absurdly blamed Heysel on a number of third parties and rogue actors. And yet not one member of our free and fearless press dare comment on it. Actually one did, and he was subject to a witch-hunt. So, like all bullies they look for a less recalcitrant target.as he is a red scouse cult member I doubt it.
A school of thought created by the likes of him and his colleagues to nurture the irrational responses of those incapable of free thinking against the club and it's support base. This is the freedom of the press for you from someone laughingly called a sports journalist, but the most worrying aspect is the front pages are even worse.The bitterness from Jonathan Liew's latest spewings over at The Guardian.
Shan't be linking it for the obvious but I found the below passage a particular high/ point of the article.
'Beyond that, a frightening calm. There is a school of thought out there that City is a club driven by grudges and enmities, fuelled by antagonism and spoiling for scraps at any opportunity. Perhaps this is true at a boardroom level, or on the wild frontiers of the internet, where City fans remain unrivalled in their capacity to nurture conspiracy theories and illusory slights, desperate to be hated.' :-)

The slide of the Guardian started with the move to London and targeting the media and teaching as its audience. A decline in print made predictable the shift to social media content and its views.The Guardian aspiring to be Talksport. Born as a socialist paper in Manchester.

The cnut wants flushing down the Liew.Liew is such a ****
