Media Discussion - 2023/24

also, forgetting the play-on/pull back farce, on the commentary Neville dismissed Akanji's penalty shout, fair enough, but he also brought up a previous similar incident (united iirc) which wasn't given... 'just a hand on the shoulder' - I can remember an even bigger 'hand on the shoulder' only incident, with additional falling backwards and throwing arms in the air to get into a Platoon pose by the TWGD Salah, that resulted in a pen.

The problem is that City players are shite at diving.
Salah is a Master (Hons), as are a few Arsenal players.
We need to either up our game or not bother...

The media doing an Adebayor on Erling.

Shows how complicate they are in protecting the brand.

If it had been Liverpool, instead of us, the media would be all about the ref's mistake and totally sympathetic to Klopp's loudly proclaimed sense of injustice, with no word about the on-field reaction.

It's so utterly transparent.

Yep media all red shirts lick arses

Shebahn letting her inner raggy out again on Talkshite this morning. Full emphasis on a "Huge viking intimidating the referee shouting swear words at him"

You know, sometimes I sit there and question whether I am actually a paranoid schizophrenic and this media agenda isn't actually real. It's like virtually nobody else sees it. The plain as day inconsistencies in the way we are reported against compared to say Liverpool, the ability for even the most positive stories to be twisted to seem negative. It gives me immense comfort to know others see what I see. Even if it means you too are a paranoid schizophrenic

Pep couldn’t ask for a better opportunity to get the siege mentality going with a bunch of pissed off players. Just a pity we’re disappearing soon.

Which doesn't necessarily mean anything. The lies in the newspapers today are that Haaland tweeted "what the fuck". He did not tweet those words. He has no case to answer. But the media complicity in trying to undermine this great club of ours cannot be ignored.
