Last night a sky subscribing rag, (aren't they all, all 659 million of them, their not ever at Old Scafford, though there's plenty of seats available and within the vicinity) stated 200 million spent and City could barely beat Brighton. I replied fuck off, you gobshite.

As you say United supporters a major source of income for Sky. Little wonder they skew their reporting to suit their customers is it ?
 
What is the Mendy tweet that has been referenced a few times on here? I've not seen anything so wondered what he's supposed to have apologised for.
I think he delted it now but all it said was "bullet header " just after the own goal. Harmless and in good spirit. But you know what the perpetual victims in the media are like
 
This is the 1st paragraph you can guess the rest......reads like the Economist the amount of times he mentions how much weve spent

It ended as you anticipated. The team that had spent £216million over the summer, whose squad was worth £569m and which is effectively the public relations arm of an energy-rich Arab state finally found a way past the club that almost dropped off the Football League radar 20 years ago, had spent 34 years painfully finding their way back to the top flight and whose squad was worth £37m.

Brighton have teetered on the brink of existence, threatened to go out of the league and out of business, sold their own ground, been homeless before building a new one.

So this was a momentous day and they deserved to enjoy it. And yet the carnival is over for Brighton. Well though they played — and they were excellent for long periods and even threatened City at times — they were undone by the familiar woes of newly-promoted sides.

They competed, they battled and they held their own. Yet ultimately, as they tired, they made but two mistakes. And the billionaires pounced.

The online version's been given a serious editing since!

It even mentions that Brighton found Spineless Mike in a generous mood.

Stevie Mee took offence at it so it was deleted before he called for a 10 match ban.

I hope when we win the title Mendy either tweets or asks in an interview how many he's won and thanks for the slip.

Honestly, a Scouser offended over everything...who knew?

What did he tweet that was offensive?
 
I've not trawled the thread history but am I the only one consistently disappointed with the way Stuart Brennan seems reluctant to talk up MCFC but has no trouble at all being negative. The respective report headlines tonight for us and the rags is a classic example. You would think that one prime qualification for being the MEN City reporter is that he/she is a City fan.

I believe the M(U)EN are contractually obliged to talk up the Rag's chance of winning the title this season. We might as well pack up now.
