While reluctant to defend the rags it must be pointed out that several United players were assaulted leaving the team bus at Anfield and had corrosive liquid thrown at them. Any other club but Liverpool would have faced a lengthy ban of course they got a slapped wristIf it had been the other way around the media would have been screaming for us to be kicked out of the competition at the very least

might be on BBC Iplayer
This is the one shown during the silence. It’s not on iPlayer. That was a different one.
Plus the alleged incident with Alan Smith’s ambulance
I thought that was Chelsea fansPlus the alleged incident with Alan Smith’s ambulance
Thanks for posting. I know they couldn't fit this into the 1 minute's silence but I was pissed at the BBC for not showing this and focussing on the players instead.Not cried like that since the Aguerooo moment. Love our club. RIP Colin.

I'm not sure if it was Jimmy Armfield or maybe Graham Taylor who called Alan Green a fool, live on air, during a radio commentary.Agree 100%. And Jimmy Armfield on the radio was excellent
I’m perfectly entitled to express an opinion, just as you have countless times about people you haven’t met.
Where did I say he was biased? I’ve never said he was biased, just poorly informed and/or grossly incompetent.
At the time City was suffering from an existential crisis, he chose to report on us in a way that undermined the club - due (at the very least) to his manifest and abject failure to properly avail himself of the facts, whilst closely aligning himself with those who sought to destroy us. That’s the reason I said fuck him. Who he supports has nothing to do with that sentiment.
And seeing as you brought it up, as to me spending too much time on here and/or for too long, maybe that’s true, but by any objective measure, since joining this place ten years ago, when I was bankrupt and broken, I’ve achieved more with my life than most folk can even dream of, including, I’ll say with absolute confidence, Sam Lee - and so I’m entirely comfortable about where this place sits within the context of my wider life.
So whilst you may know him personally, just because you do, doesn’t mean you’re right about him either - and the fact he’s a United fan has absolutely fuck all to do with any of it.
