Media discussion - 2024/25

At the end of Chelsea's match report tonight on the BBC is this quite bizarre paragraph.

"In fact, a report from the Transferroom website suggested that Chelsea's squad, valued at £1.1bn, is worth as much as the Conference League's other 35 team combined.

They are, therefore, strong favourites to claim glory in Europe this season. That estimated squad value is nothing for the Blues to be ashamed of - but merely highlights how European football is changing with England's top flight dominant, especially when facing teams from outside the continent's big five leagues."

I look forward to the same friendly editorial leanings when we next play a "minnow".
 
Sky Sports’ write up about the “Making of Morgan Rogers” is written to subtly disparage his time at City (sending him out on loan), with some suspect quotes from Brian Barry-Murphy.

Quelle surprise.
 
Of course they have, or at least it feels that way to us. The best part is though, if you asked a United fan, they would tell you how they feel they never get decisions. It's what we do as fans and we can be quite blinkered. I don't think the media influence decisions, I think they may try to but apparently the whole system is corrupt anyway, so why would they need the media to influence them......
I will happily backtrack as I don't want abuse from fellow blues for simply stating I didn't think it was a red.
Another red for him, will he get this one overturned?

It will be 'Obscene', ' ghastly' you know the drill pal
 
MUEN ran with a story that said Barcelona eyeing up Haaland and possibly Neymar. BUT, they then say that Barcelona plagued with financial issues and City unlikely to want to sell etc etc. A total non story designed to get clicks. Its like running a headline that Hitler is planning on making a come back, but then saying because he's dead this is unlikely to happen. Most football sports journalism is garbage.

To be fair, only 99% of it.
