BBC Verify....I watched Ross Atkins do a couple of pieces on politics prior to Verify setting up and he was I felt really good.

Verify starts and he does something on us, pile of crap full of untruths. I was hoping he'd be on the ball but, like the rest of them, only when it suits.

The BBC went into lock-step with other international news agencies to decide which stories they deem are true and which they deem aren't

Cool name though. Perhaps that's why she got the gig.

She's a one season wonder.

They just couldn’t help themselves.

More mindless rubbish to undermine City and promote controversy where none exists.

UEFA convention records the final score for coefficients so the result for City v Real Madrid was a draw - both on the day and over the two legs. Someone has to go through in a knockout competition and in this case it was on penalties. Previously decisions have been made on away goals, the toss of a coin or currently on penalties. It maybe pedantic but you can lose the tie and win or draw the game

Had City played at the Etihad first and lost on penalties away at the Bernabau would they still claim City had lost at home so the record could not stand? As City fans we have come to expect this level of puerile pettiness from our detractors who cannot accept our success.

Moving the goalposts after the event to try and hamper City. Sounds familiar…

Those are the competition rules they signed up to. If they hate them so much perhaps they should fuck off and play in another competition whose rules are more to their liking.

That's how these things work isn't it?

We’d have won on away goals under the old rules which applied to the rags too

Absolutely. There you go.

Perhaps post comments on his articles he writes in the MEN letting him know what a rag tool he is…

I called him ragiowski on the Muen..said he was a rag and shouldn't be allowed to report on City..but surprisingly the MUen took down the comments..he's a fucking bigmouthed rag **** that shouldn't be allowed anywhere near our club

Correct, we keep being up there with the best and the media have to pander to the also rans for their needy clicks.
