It's already been posted but here's a bit more detail

City Xtra (@cityxtra.bsky.social)

#ManCity have lodged a complaint with BBC Radio Manchester after no dedicated City reporter was present from the station for the pre-derby press conference, which they believe is the first time in living memory for such an occurrence. Full article for more information on the Daily Mail website!

I’ll defend the wider bbc when needed, but their football dept is beyond a joke. I would ban them from any conferences for the remainder of the season, and maybe even from the ground completely.

The football output is matched by the political output. The bbc is not fit for purpose and needs fucking off.

And leave a chasm that would get filled by the Rupert Murdoch's of the world, what a bang up idea. I've always thought there wasn't enough misinformation around.

George Cole was a better footballer.

Fucking hell - another reference for the teenagers there.

Just how fucking old is our fanbase!?! :-)

There's probably one or two on here who remember Old King Cole.

Absolute rubbish. You take a measured, reasonable post from me, and spout that unsupported, sweeping comment in reply.
I’m surprised you didn’t throw in that you don’t pay your licence fee, and Saville or Harris too, and go for the full bbc bingo.

Get it on the politics sub-forum mate, cos although I’m interested to see you justify and detail what is so wrong with their political output, this is a football media thread (I think).

So the football output is biased but the rest of it defo isn’t?…ok. The bbc is bought and paid for just like the daily mail. You refuse to accept that which is nice. I don’t. It needs fucking off.

I liked the post - then thought for a few seconds.
The BBC in general just needs to move back to neutrality rather than trying to constantly pander to the latest whim
