Who has the UK rights to the IPL? Nothing to see here so let’s get our wank sock out for a bit more Ronaldo

Sky have got the IPL rights. I suppose they've just lost 20 million on TV rights for the 5th test might also play a part on their editorial.

They have lost on five days test cricket which is nothing like £20 million thats the suggested loss to ECB. The absolute lack of proper questioning regarding the cancellation is telling from Sky compare and contrast to Agnew who has no part to play in the IPL, he knows what’s what, meanwhile the Rag wankfest must continue.

Sorry.

£20 million was how much Sky paid for the whole series/ODIs etc.

The Talkshite cricket pundit is as pissed off as Aggers about it. Calling out India's power.

Back on topic.

Any mention of Rapey Ron on whichever sports/news channel is getting switched off.

A nice warm feeling to know that the conversation will be about just how Fcking brilliant “likkle citeh” are & how they’ve pissed on every dirty trick they’ve tried. Last 10 years Gill & the piss can have been made to look like Dastardly & Muttley.

A great analogy. I shall henceforth think of the rags as the "Vulture Squadron" and Likkle Ol' Ciddeh as the Pigeon!

 

[give it to gordon]

Ronaldo was even mentioned in the courage of The Tour of Britain yesterday. Something along the lines he now lives around here and be funny to see watching at the side of the road as the race goes pass !

“Mutley do something”

The similarities are all efforts have been on stopping City, cheating & skulduggery. Imagine if they’d just tried to get better.

True, but he did end up by saying we should hold Ferguson in high esteem and remember him "warts and all".
But at least some faults highlighted. Basically, Syed is a GPC toady, though

An absolute clown car of a man who called City fans ‘vicious rats’ and promised to ‘shout our innocence from the rooftops’ if we were cleared at CAS but has yet to do so

My thoughts entirely.

 

[Leeky]

Can’t really have a word when they’ve stated a fact can they?

I don't dispute that, the facts are the incident occurred somewhere in the Caribbean, whilst playing for Bayern Munich and has since transferred to Lyon, why was this story published in a British newspaper in the first place?

The only reason was to give a negative spin towards City.

I know the BBC are shit when reporting on City but look how they reported on the case.

No mention of City

I hope Ronaldo’s game is the dampest squib since the opening of a pork pie shop in Saudi Arabia.

Since we’re not allowed to wish injury on someone however abhorrent they are, the best I can hope for is a dour 1-0 to Newcastle, with Ronaldo sent off near the end having failed to muster a shot.

Bravo on that opening line mate............

Sly Sports News this Afternoon.

Amongst the worsening and on-going Ronaldo w@nkfest, the Sky Sports News Commentator proclaimed “United could have sold 10x’s more tickets for the match“. That’s 740,000 tickets.

At that point the TV went off.

Why oh why did I think we would get more from the BBC 6-30 local news than "Manchester City will play Leicester tomorrow" after watching endless shite about the site's new saviour.Not a mention about our possible missing players due to FIFA's ruling crap.Off to the pub now to fume,again.

As former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo returns for his "second debut" this weekend, BBC Radio 5 Live has confirmed it will host exclusive live coverage.

I bet the Rags never thought in their wildest dreams that they’d have continual PR from one of the biggest and arguably the most famous TV media company in the World right on their doorstep.

 

[JGL07]

BBC's sport section journalists still playing with their private parts over Ronaldo's return. One of the 4 articles has this headline -

Why is Manchester United v Newcastle not on UK TV?​

It certainly is one of the greatest scandals of the modern world.

If United sign a 37-year old who was effectively shown the door by Juventus, the least we could expect would be to cancel all previous TV schedules and screen the match on all sports and general TV channels.

 

[oldius]

The level of ass licking in the Mail is beyond any I have witnessed. I stopped counting at 8 main stories featuring Ronaldo, including the total surprise that Rio is urging him to do well. Thanks for that, Knob.

 

[Spanishbob]

Cannot believe the shit I’m having to quickly read be it the fail or mirror or the muen it’s either cr7 or mendy.

 

[wolviedinho]

Juve having a dig at city in the metro. Comparing our alleged approach to Ronaldo with United. The word traditional is used.

My take, we would have taken Ronaldo on a free. The scare tactics from his agent brought United crawling with the chequebook.

Traditional approach my ass. City have money but we have stopped being mugs.

Probably why the London hierarchy moved the studio's next to the swamp.

99% of any press is a dig if the champions and most successful team of the last decade get a mention at all. It’s time we started burning down the house, fuck all this softly softly shite!
