Media Thread 2020/21

Jeez, Sky Sports News just ran a bit on today's game and they had to throw the Aguero/Massey 'incident' in. They showed the clip no less than 4 times just to drive the point home which is at least twice the number of times they've shown any goal this morning. Unbelievable.

Pep compared the media coverage to the Bernie/Mendy 'racism' incident so he knows what's going on.

Where/when did pep do that?

Until games stopped a small group of young City fans ran a food bank before home matches on the the old B of the Bang corner. In all weathers under a gazebo they did their bit quietly without a fanfare of publicity. They were liaising with the club about additional pitches because they knew there were plenty of City fans who would donate but approach the ground from different directions.
They had to stop doing it for obvious reasons but l feel sure they are still helping in some other way without fuss.
I am am proud of these guys because they are Blues giving their time and effort for others. Up and down the country there are 100s of groups in 1000s of stores running food banks for others. A job which should not be necessary but is certainly needed.
Of course none of them have the backing of the PR people of the two clubs attempting to take control of the Premier League or a European Super League for money, money, money.

But don't dare post that in the Sir Marcus love in thread, you'll get hounded.

I just seen that and it didn't surprise me at all, they've failed to get Pickford banned so keep the pressure on Augero. I also expect the weekly questions on Peps contract renewal to increase

Honesty guys why do you watch sky, bt etc or buy papers ?
If City arent bothered by the shit they write , then ignore it.

I dont watch any football news etc or buy a paper, havent for over 7 years now and my world is alot better for it.

I only know what's been said by the media thread here or any story that pops up on my Google news app and most of the time I just read the headline.

I felt I had to defend City when people at work or in the pub, would start going on about say the Aguero and Massey for example but now I just shrugged my shoulders and smile. It's a lot less stressful. If City wouldnt fight the press/media why should I in the pub or workplace ?

I know we weren't great but Fletcher and Keown were a disgrace tonight. Completely negative

One of Keown's first comments was about how City should have done better during the 10 years they've been in the Champions league. I wonder what he thinks of Arsenals one final in 20 plus years of CL football?
Set the tone for the night and I muted it just after both commentators showed their disappointment at City's penalty not being overturned by VAR

We don’t dictate the media agenda. We are not seen as English institutes like the Mersey and Trafford Scum. The media has built their foundations on these cunts.

It won’t change unless there is a seismic change by our owners but the colour of their skin and ethnicity will always keep us out. We never had a chance in the PR war. It was over the moment the good Sheikh purchased city.

Edit made for soleofsalford:)

But they could back us as an English team in Europe like they do with everyone else?

As if there could be any doubt "Marcus Rashford Manchester United " front and centre on BBC breakfast again !

No escaping him in on Radio 4 either
Insufficient vredit to the councils, supermarkets, restaurants etc for doing their bit in actually providing the food. Lots pulling together but a bit disappointed Liverpool is doing something and not Manchester.
