Media discussion - 2025/26

from 2023 ? so the premier league have been hiding this


Didn't the bbc panorama program reveal pisscan and his dodgy football agent son were up to no good. I dont remember the fa investigating it. All I remember is pisscan boycotting the bbc and he was never fined for breaking pl and bbc contract.
 
I love self torture. ;-)

There’s more.

1894 have asked the club to turn the speakers off before the teams come out in Sunday.

This is how Sportsbible on Facebook are reporting it.

Such a shite take that. I’ve been wanting us to kill the cheesy PA pre-match for years because it kills off any attempts at supporter generated atmosphere.

I’ve always hated that kind of dictated ‘cheerleading’ at any big gathering - even back to the days of MCs being introduced into clubs!

Edit. A bit more killing there than I intended.

How the fuck does Pep put up with all the snide, loaded, bullshit questions in the pre match QAA, its fucking amazing.
What puzzles me are there any pro City jurnos at the press conference ?

More chance of finding a nun in a knocking than finding a pro City journo…..

Martin Samuel the ONLY one that comes to mind….Paul Hince back in the day,sadly now in blue heaven
 
And so it starts

Just woke up Quick Look on BBC sport

Loh and behold they have a new feature top story is some woman whose going to do in depth interviews with sports stars et Al so why not start with

Rat Face ffs
 
Just saw an article on BBC about Russo scoring two goals for Arsenal. I thought, “I bet they say former Manchester United player” in the story, and sure enough.
 
There is no media correspondent in City’s corner apart from Martin Samuel who occasionally prints a City story. I hate the mainstream press
More and more I feel as if football is just one huge Job Creation Scheme for mediocre writers , broadcasters and has beens who can steal a living by regurgitating the establishment line or spouting meaningless opinion simply in order to stir up indignation.

Twas ever thus in the press , but the Hollywoodication of the Premier League Age , combined with an unrelenting need for novelty and content, means that the gruel we all have to sup daily is thinner than that proffered to Oliver Twist by Mr Bumble again.

" Please sir , I want some more " Oliver says naively , but there is no longer the faintest whiff of any meat or , indeed , anything else substantial in the thin grey slop in his bowl . Oliver will remain hungry for something better but complaining only falls on deaf ears. Those in employment continue to dine on the fatted calf, burping and belching in comfortable satisfaction then sit back , having thrown another hod of coal on the fire .

In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries you might be a poet, a revolutionary or a disciple of God. From this field arises journalists and social thinkers. In the 21st century, religion, politics and economics are now considered dull.
