Those cunts seriously offend and annoy in equal measure.

Using license payers' money to promote a very select number of teams is a disgrace imo.

I have read the many messages about fucking the license off and tbh it is looking like the only way to " fight back " against the bastards.

It's soooo easy.
Takes one 5 minute call
Tell em you're going to live abroad.
They refund the unused portion.
No detection teams.
LIBERATING !!

The BBC actively promotes toxic comments about City on its website. No attempt is made to moderate accusations accusing us of being cheats even though our case is currently being considered by an independent panel. There are no caveats on the comments. It is totally dishonest and unfair.

My last three complaints about comments on City weren’t accepted, they’re a joke.

I find it odd how some many dippers say City are cheats, guilty, oil money etc.
Of all the fan bases I thought the dippers would believe in innocent until proved guilty.
They had their fight to clear their name after the gutter press said they were responsible for Hillsborough. Yet these same fans now believe the gutter press regarding City.
You can't have it both ways.

A significant section of the population believes the fake news they are fed on social media. They seem happy to be manipulated. It is not isolated to LFC fans but they do seem very vociferous. A lot of people seem to be incapable of critical thinking. It seems like some sort of collective madness has taken over. The problem is much wider than football.

Let’s face it, it’s a ritual with rival fans to go on there and plaster it with all the cheats, 115 bollocks on any City HYS. Rags, dippers, Arse, Spurs all pile on and the BBC facilitate it with their choices of opening an HYS and often a headline or framed question. It’s like people on here when the rags lose saying “I’m going over to the caff ” - only they do it on a fucking industrial scale. It’s not a lack of intelligence it’s just deliberate and targeted bile and shows their level of pain. Anyone with half a brain knows it’s sheer bullshit - including our beloved (joke) publicly-owned broadcaster, but the fact they actively encourage it, is a fucking disgrace.

Agree with a lot you say but there's definitely a lack of intelligence on there from a majority of posters, they haven't got the brain's they were born with.

Ducker in the Telegraph put the boot into City and Pep this morning whilst his colleague Dean in the adjacent reportwas glowing about Arsenals heroic come back. We might as well just concede it is now a two horse race!

Absolutely, gonna be some battle this arsenal vs liverpool title race.

I read

I read Barney Ronay's report of the Liverpool win at Palace.
Apparently Slot has perfected this style of play that "anaethetises" opponents to submit to defeat in a controlled manner.
It is obviously absolute bollocks, but Bombastic Barney loves to go well over the top.
When City control the ball and a specific match, Pep is accused of "killing the game".
Oh, Palace could/should have equalised in the last minutes...

Didn’t anaethetise Forest very well

I read a report recently that stated that 30-50% of the population don't have an inner monologue, I think they all congregate around the BBC's HYS to gain an opinion.

I'm pleased to report there's a healthy resistance movement in the comments section of the Mail. You can recognise some of the usernames from on here.
