Media Discussion - 2023/24

People are paid what their employers are prepared to pay and sometimes less. Would I like to come out of retirement for a £1,000,000pa, no thanks I’d like the money but I don’t want the work. I would have snatched their hand off if I was young, you’re dam right I would. I’m not jealous of Gary Lineker and think he is a decent presenter.

I'm not jealous. I like Lineker. He was a great player and he's a good presenter. But on Saturdays now he watches some football matches and then talks about them with his mates. For £1,000,000 pa. Really?

Just caught some of Deadline Day coverage on Sly. Some Ushited card carrying wanker called Flex commenting on City’s transfer business.

Yesterday Flex was highlighting City's outgoings and mentioned Jaded Sanchez, K.Schmeichel, and J.Trafford as players who have left for better pastures, then he couldn't help himself bringing it back to the rags and gloating about the Busby Babes and the Crass of '92. zzz

The best bit was when he was interrupted with breaking news of City's transfer deal for M.Nunes and he said he was annoyed because he wanted to talk more rag $hite on SSN.

Being a deluded rag is bad enough for your self esteem but this prick made a decision to market himself as Flex - what a twat!

Agreed. But that doesn't change the situation that our PR team (if we have one) are totally ineffective and have been since the takeover. As a club we are now demonised by the media. It's to late to change things now. Its gone past the point of no return. We are FFP, oil cheats, who's success has been made possible by petro dollars. The stadium is always empty and the fans are plastics. That's the media narrative and it has stuck. We have won on the field. But we have been absolutely trounced off it.

and yet the money and top players keep rolling in

plus the new fans we are now getting

so who has won the PR battle?

I don't think you can call out Lineker for spouting his lunatic views here. He comes across as quite a centre left type. Never heard anything extreme from him.

If lineker is centre left, then he's to the right of Sunak and all the other Globalists infecting parliament.

 

[Rory Bluelow]

If you actually think what Lineker says about us on MOTD vaguely resembles what is written about us on RAWK then you are truly beyond help!

Lineker’s always been a big fan of Pep and is fairly balanced regarding City. Apart from one particular blemish hosting Champions League coverage for BT, he’s been okay.

The “Busby Babes” were 65 years ago FFS - very relevant !
