Usual BBC bias this morning on 5 Live. Talked about Liverpool's game at Hoffenheim but not a mention of our game in Girona.

Um, can't tell if that's serious or not. I hope not!

Not only can I give you the date but isn't there a clock somewhere that shows the exact time the arse-lickin' began?

The DT this morning in good old RagPuffery style have 56 column inches on why Matic is the shrewdest buy in the entire window, and MCFC, the only team to play their home games within the geographical boundary of the City of Manchester, have 14 column inches on why we risk upsetting Girona. If the Good Sheikh takes a hefty stake in the Spanish club Uefa rules state that two teams with the same owner are ineligible so Girona might miss out. What's the likelihood of Girona making European qualification? What's the likelihood of the RagDipperArseHaringeyMeedya coming up with a story about us that has as much chance of happening as DEB'e stuffing the Eiffel Tower in his pocket and selling it on Conran Street Market?

But not one to let an opportunity go begging, the DT, within the Rag article, happen to mention that CFC's owner is Russian and that he is a billionaire. And, yes, you bastards on 'ere have guessed right - they mention yet again that our owner is an Arab and he's a billionaire. And yer second guess is also correct - there's no mention within the 56 column inches of those dear people who own MANUre, or where they are registered or what their cultural or religious background is! Puzzling!

The one thing you can always lay at the door of the RDAHM is that they are consistent in their puffery!

I should have put an exclamation mark or smiley face at the end of that first sentence, as I am as fully aware of the date, time,etc, as you are. There may be some of our younger readers who don't know the date, but I doubt it.
It's been rammed down our throats for over 59 years, and there's hardly been a day gone by since that the psychofants (deliberate spelling error) in the media haven't kissed their arses (and other parts of their anatomy).

Can't believe Spanish Dave doesn't make the shortlist for best BBC premiership team of all time but the likes of Xabi Alonso do?!?
Staggering really.....

Must be based on Garth Crooks team of the week.

Garth is a little boss-eyed, and tends to favour Rag's, Dippers and London teams.

Garth is a BBC employee and therefore tends to favour Rag's, Dippers and London teams.

Fixed for you.

Kyle W. was in his team this week.

He included Walker in his team of the week, but he might as well not bothered considering what he wrote, in fact I think the only reason he did include was so he could get on his soap box and spout his usual bo***x

Can on see this is because of the Spurs connection.

Standard for the RDAHM! Hasn't Silva the most assists in the PL since he joined us? But there again, those dead-beat second rate hacks who infest the media with their RagDipperPuffery have never bother too much with such insignificant details like, er, evidence!

This is a little snippet from the BBC OS where they have chunked the 25 years of the PL into five year slots:

Part five: New challenges - 2012-2017

Ferguson bows out in style at Manchester United, who suffer a prolonged hangover, Liverpool's Steven Gerrard has a costly slip-up, Mourinho makes a whistle-stop return to Chelsea before settling at Old Trafford and Leicester City overcome the odds in stunning fashion. With European trophies heading to Spain and Germany, England's big boys make good use of their TV goldmine.

Can't think which team is missing from that collection! Oh yeah, it's Haringey Hotspurs!

Does anyone else think BBC Sport, Salford is actually getting worse?

I appreciate the BBC is a nightmare of management, and jobs for life if you do what you're told, but somebody above the cannon fodder continually writing this biased rubbish must be in a position to put an end to it, or to at least make sure there is no bias.
