I had a call at 9am from Claire at Radio Five Live asking if I wanted to appear on their morning phone-in (presumably to cry about losing and slag Pep off)

MY REPLY

"The thing is Claire, I've attended 1400 City games in 28 different countries. I've had better days than yesterday, but I've also endured far worse.
I don't mind the sneers, because that's the nature of the beast, and we did the same last season when it was the other way round.
However, I can't stand the lies perpetuated by the media, including the BBC, and forever repeated on social media by attention seeking idiots.
Indeed after reading the latest spite and bile from Eamon Sweeney and Jonathon Liew, I find myself yearning to live in a military junta where journalists mysteriously fall out of aeroplanes".

Anyway she put me on hold for a couple of minutes and then the line went dead.
Just listened to it. Wasn't that bad tbh until some hampshire sounding gimp came on saying he is a scouse fan and the 130.charges some of them surely will.stick bs. Campbell actually said they are very confident

Yep, from Rugby, making a big deal that it's no longer 115 but now 130... "more than Everton!'', I have no doubt that the moron could not name one specific 'charge' from the manufactured rap-sheet.
Don't know why Campbell ever has a football topic - you can hear he doesn't give a shit, is bored as fuck, and tries to throw in some hilarious comments which fail to land and just show him to be a snide smarmy prick.
I do think the confidence he mentioned was from the City side though?

Yes mate he knows. Was interesting how he said it
 
Just watching BBC North-west news. They have a sports psychologist coming on to about Peps body language yesterday.

BBC trying to stick the knife in again. Don’t remember them doing this to last half dozen or so of loser Rag Managers.
Usually watch this after the news but have switched off so I don’t have to listen to the garbage

It’s not catering to City fans it’s a piece done for the giddy rag,red scousers and arse fans ..
 
Memory plays tricks on us all (mine probably more than most), but I didn't think we were 'energetic' after about the first 5-10mins.

Stand to be corrected.........
I thought we looked tired throughout but actually seemed well in control just before we handed them the first goal. Their best spell was the 15 minutes immediately after half time. It was a ridiculous and a very low quality match.

Losing mount helped them they brought young legs and packed midfield even more
Then late on fresh legs and hoof
 
Sky just interviewed Iraola before tonight's game and then after it ended the Sky team have just said Bournemouth are now mastering the dark arts of the tactical fouling - a component of their success apparently. Absolute wankers. Of course, Spit preceded the segment with a "We've talked in the past about Man City and their tactical fouling but one thing we've noticed about Bournemouth..." and then proceeds to embed the narrative about Iraola's team.
Earlier in the programme Spit was also basically tapping up Bournemouth's LB Kerkez for the Dippers.

Shit stirring par excellence.

I caught a very small part of it - don’t they realise Pep has always demonstrated an air of exasperation around him on the touchline? He does so at points in virtually every game doesn’t he?
It was a lame as fuck piece.
