Sky putting the boot in Grealish tonight. Naturally throwing in his pricetag.

The only two on there who seem to give us even slight praise are Tim Sherwood and Clinton Morrison. Rest of them are rent a quote arseholes. Don't even get
me started on that smug prick that presents it

Yeah, I like Sherwood, and Dean to some extent, but the rest of it is a shit show.

Just watched on motd, only caught 2nd half on the City app. Think we played well, how unlucky was Gundo with that shot?

Shay Given always speaks well of us, slaphead shearer is a bitter twat.

Normally I'd be spitting feathers at the rags being the opening game, but in the circumstances, they did put a smile on my face.

Just seen the bit with Shearer, saying
"it wasn't the first time Lewis had a go at the ref, and if you dive in like that on a yellow, you've got no complaints"
But clearly you do have a complaint if the Ref as got it wrong , ie Lewis was the one caught !

Shearer, what a twat. Then ended by saying we weren't in the title race. Let's see shitface !

It is obvious that most national online newspapers are gloating about our recent problems, don’t give them the click bates or buy their papers

Not bought a paper in 20years

I'm not that bothered really. Let them write us off. Because it will be even sweeter if we turn it around

 

[wolviedinho]

I don’t watch any round up channels now at all. I don’t need the hassle nor fake praise.

A lot of people don’t like us for whatever reason. So why would I listen to their views?

Same bullshit repeated daily now.

We played shit today and got a draw. We all know who played well and who didn’t and we all know that a lot of issues have come at us in one go this season.

The media personalities can stay silent and irrelevant. I do hate the personal attacks on Pep tho. Just because he is the best and now you are happy to see him struggle. It’s sad and pathetic and insecure anyone calling him out be it Jose or slot or Carragher/neville. Hiding behind banter again but it clearly reveals their true jealous hateful feeling towards a huge figure in the game.

Radio silence is bliss.

Shearer is a snidey ****.
They way he openly wanked over the rags in the FA Cup final still sickens me

No doubt we've got our issues but do these lazy pundits ever learn... seen spotty, ratboy. Merson and AS say it now that our title race is done.... we're in December. It's doubtful yes but to rule us out completely... these will also be the same pundits that we'll say league is ruined ect if we do win it from here

 

[cheekybids]

Whoever was the co commentator on my feed was good. Constantly calling out Palace faking injury.

Meanwhile Michael Owen is continuing the City in crisis trope.

It’s never an “injury crisis” I’ve noticed, just a crisis.

Last season our bad run ended with a 2:2 with palace.

When we turn it around. :-)

Says everything about the media on match of the day. Shearer says Lewis deserved his red. On what fucking planet can anyone watch that and say it’s anything other than a shocking decision and should have been a penalty to us.

If that’s the rags or dippers there is a media wide outcry.

 

[One Fan Clapping]

BBC football page headline was “Forest stun United”.

They’re ten places ahead of them. They can’t get it into their heads that United are a faded star and are where they are because they’re shite!

 

[rice10]

Do we think United will go for Viana now that Ashworth has already left?!

I bet he get linked to them in the press

To add balance, there are a number of posters on here who agreed with that shit decision, so why wouldn't one of our many detractors ?

Pundits are just paid shills / whores for the most part.

 

[Eccles Blue]

Does Shay’s accent get more Irish when he’s defending us or is it just my sensitive hearing? He’s a great pundit because he’s much fairer and more respectful than most about all teams. IMHO

I had wondered that, what with him delaying his arrival until the summer. He was either contracted or he wasn't .....
