Media discussion - 2024/25

So called sports media in this country are drowning in their own jizz declaring City's reign is over.

Naturally 5 live world phone in have neglected to bring in their semi regular city contributor and have a rag spouting bollocks about us being relegated.

When this small blip ends they'll be back to calling us cheating oil cunts in no time.

The BBC are the equivalent of RT state run news agency in Russia. I have no respect for anyone who works for that propogandist organisation. I don’t even watch bbc anymore had enough of hearing their BS.

Correct. We had a visiting supporter on here recently stating that the bbc are great and "a national institution" ( off topic thread)

Not in my book.

Any corporation that has a statute of a well known paedophile outside its office is not worthy of any such accolade.. Can't remember the historical figures name but he said to have abused his own children.
Imagine walking past that figure every morning into work to earn your pay?
Disgusting.

Rag pundit; "I don't understand why there's no relegation clause in Peps new contract?"

I'm so glad you brought this up. I am fuming about this show (fuming enhanced by lots of cider).
Agree with everything you've said. I'll also add that, when talking about a caller's suggestion that City's "demise/fallen empire!" could be due to the ongoing legal case, Presenter Dotun Adenayo used his broadcasting skills and presenter control/licence to segway into a little anecdote. When travelling in Jamaica he stated to his girlfriend's brother that a (presumably wealthy and guilty) rapper on trial for rape would be found guilty. The brother replied that he doubted it as anyone with money or power never gets convicted (because of the legal resources they can access?).
He then immediately stated that City are of course quite at liberty to defend themselves.
Either I'm pissed and paranoid or I'm rightly pissed off that he just similied (?) City and guilty rapists.

Sounds like the story of numerous BBC presenters to me.

The daily Telegraph it seems has an entire Sports Department purely staffed by rabid anti City hacks ( I cannot use the term journalists ) as it would be an affront to the few in that profession worthy of the name.
No doubt we provide free sandwiches and bubbly for them at our press conferences before they scuttle off to pen their bile .

We need an insider in hospitality to add a "little extra protein" to their pre match experience!

I did wonder if that was his bitter Gooner side coming out? Couldn't believe it myself when he said it.

Paul Sarahs is on there occasionally, he's a blue who used to (possibly still does) post on here. Been known to put both him and vickery back in their boxes when needed. No blues rang in when I was listening. A couple of rags did though...I was tempted mind.

BBC breakfast @ 8:30 North West, regular presenter telling the people that Manchester City playing tonight in chumps league then highlights the fact that we have lost 5 in a row, I don't need reminding of this thank you very much. Switch to 800 and BBC Wales mentions Wrexham,Cardiff and Swansea all good with no agenda. No wonder I am starting to pick up some Welsh. Bora da everyone.
