You should of given the fukers some verbals

Why? Gaughan and, to a lesser extent, Bajkowski are amongst the fairest City journalists out there.

What an utterly ridiculous way to frame last night’s events.

Are you surprised?
Nope.
Me neither.

Imagine my surprise to discover that Slimy Stones Premier League signing of the Year is a United player. This grifter's job title gets changed more than my socks do.

That’s his burner job title

Not knocking the beeb as whole , as it's a massive organisation with stations all around the country and loads of different departments, and away from sport, it's normally the first choice (BBC2 and 4) along with channel 4 if you want to watch something decent and not mind numbing boring. But got to admit BBC sport as got a real anti City seam running straight through it. Just came across a review of the WSL , ie rating very team's performance. Well it seams like your women had a good season mainly because of the other 3 "top sides" played in Europe. Also no mention of us playing in the cup final this weekend, but it's a thing in Brighton season!

 

[City Hobgoblin]

I never really watched The Wicker Man.

Bob Woodward was in All The President's Men

The bbc is a cesspit of Oxbridge nepotism and Tory stooges.

 

[wolviedinho]

He's a two faced twat who believes he's Bob Woodward.

Haha
More like woodworm -:)

And sexual perverts

Still like I said, it's the only channel (BBC 2/4) and channel 4 that I personally find anything interesting to watch, unless you can point to another channel that could watch ??

I only watch on demand stuff. Maybe the chan 4 news if im in. I never listen to the radio so don’t see any value at all in the bbc. YouTube would be better to sign up to. You can pretty much watch anything on there or get a dodgy box. They seem to be part of society’s fabric now.

You can find some good stuff on YouTube, but also loads of shite on it too .

Bob Woodward was in All The President's Men

Whoosh!

But you're right. Him and David Bernstein.

Was Ed Woodward, the Trafford Tramps' former sponsorship "guru" also in "All the President's Men" ?

No. He was in The Equaliser. Which wasn't given as offside.

I saw Gaughan, Barkowski, the Asian rag BBC City correspondent ( can't remember his name)and another drinking outside the northern monk bar yesterday. I thought to myself I wonder if these four fuckers are planning a hatchet job re the parade. They were getting through some pints anyway, lol

I don’t know how people can read something like Gaughans 4 part piece on Peps tenure and come away not realising that the guy is a massive fan of both the club and Pep and convince themselves he must want to write a hatchet job.

We have some really good journalists covering us and most of the forum does incredible mental gymnastics to lump them in with the half dozen who actually hate the club.

Dont mind Gaughan ,watched a podcast and he seems fair ,although thats a low bar for the journos we endure, and he works for the same comic as that wanker Herbert.

I think that’s a fair comment. The smear campaign against City has been driven by a relatively small group of haters. Unfortunately they have been allowed to set the narrative. Our Comms operation must take their share of the blame as well.
