Media Discussion - 2023/24

[Eccles Blue]

Yep club saying out is a waste of time but are the media the printed press allowed now to knowingly lie in print?

Only when it is about Manchester City because we are the BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD and they are jealous. :-)

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

Bitter? They're the best chuckle I have all day. Every day.

Bitter would be declaring that football has gone, that the money has ruined it all, in around the early 90s as we headed towards division two as the rags snapped up the best British talent at any cost. Probably.

Or forming a breakaway club where many members seem confused about what they have broken away from and seem to believe they have rivalries with clubs they will never play against.

I would love to see the club treat this one as an isolated of a journalist going to far and actually banning him from City. Not because of his reporting of City but by his willingness to defame our support for cheap clicks and point scoring.

 

[cookster]

There's nothing in the article that has defamed the club.

Plus, we don't want to be like RAWK liverpool fans who start petitions etc.

Just ignore and carry on being treble winners!

I didn't mention the club, it was the fanbase.

 

[Spurs quarter 69]

I honestly feel sorry for all Bobby Charltons friends and rellies and even for United fans of my age and older who can remember him playing but honestly this is so over the top. Surprised he hasnt been laid in state in Salford cathedral. Sunday is the third comemeration of his life and while i would urge all City fans to show total respect for him and his family, enough is enough. Cant remember this level of grief for any previous footballer even Bobby Moore, when all is said and done his great days ended in 1968 never won a trophy after that. He had a good life and lived to a ripe old age most of the people mourning him are far too young to have seen him play, do we really need this Princess Di level of grief. Let him rest in peace and on with the football.

Unless a whole life is put to Coldplay or Snowpatrol, it's meaningless these days.

They are using Everton as the Guinea pig as to what they can try get away with hanging onto City. The difference is Everton didn’t just fail FFP, they exploded it with the losses they made. City are getting fucked over for £30 million payed toward a sponsor over two seasons, and also payments to Mancini before FFP came into existence in the Premier League.

It would be piss funny if they gave us a sanction of a 12 points deduction and City then went on to win the league by 13 points.

On Everton if this is happening, how does financial fair play work to keep clubs in business then the Premier League attaches a sanction to them that could see them in some perilous trouble in the coming years if they get relegated.

TBH I think we could live with a one season 13 point deduction if it meant the slate was clean. We’d probably still finish in the CL spots but would not win the league for a season.

If Everton got a 12 point deduction they’d be absolutely fkd possibly for decades.
