Funny how he and many other RAGS gained employment at the BBC soon after Woody outsourced the RAGS on-line operation to India.

Ha. I’ve just checked into the BBC main football page website. The glaring omission is pitiful. Christ if this lot were in charge of WW2 propaganda and it suited their agenda they would be rooting for plucky old Hitler.

We are City, we are City, no one likes us, we dont care, we are City, we are City, from maine road.
Cheers Millwall, now know how it feels. I have never before seen the media want an English team to fail so much, " it is clear and organised" as a great man once said!

Is it worth complaining to the shitty BBC about there abysmal coverage of MCFC?

They really are hurting. Some daft twat on sky now saying both Citys goals were fortunate and our second half display was way over blown in how good we were. No idea who she is, but the pain is so clear for all to see.

The better you are the luckier you get.

With less than 3 hours to go to the game tonight I had a quick look at the Fail's football page. The first mention of City's involvment in the game tonight is the 35th story down. Their 3rd story is about PSG being dealt a bow by Mbappe being fit enough only for the bench.

Among the stuff in between there are articles on GPC meeting Pocchetino, Lukaku, Soucek, Dier, Son, Deeney, Boly, the German FA President, Sancho, Notts County's assistant manager, Ratboy, Spitty, Cantona, last night's games, Inter Milan and Bale before another article on Mbappe.

Beyond pathetic as well as clear and obvious.

No.

Exactly the same script on talksport almost to the letter.
Had to pick daughter up at one, so thought I'd see if I could find t/sport channel people go on about, as luck had it " coming up city v psg" thought this will do for me.
As I said same points about luck goals and second half over blown.
Brought in a city fan to argue the case but I had given up just as they taunted him.
Back to Radio 2, can't be bothering with the childish nonsense.

Hey I warned you all last week!

People should be prepared for more of this.


As the dust settles, there will become a creeping narrative that actually for all of the possession and fancy play, we didn't create much and only scored 2 rather fortunate goals. The big thing being ignored is that it's pretty obvious City took their foot off the gas to kill the game after going 2-1 up after 70 minutes, but ignoring things with City is a must these days.

We'll still be getting plenty of praise from many angles, but be weary of this new critique that'll emerge.

No.

Now down to the 15th article on the BBC even basketball above us ...
