[Chris in London]

Fucking media. Driving to the match the only reference to our game that we heard was that **** Schmeichel basically saying how the scum were going to win, how much he disliked us and had to pretend to be happy in the last derby at Maine Road. On the way back the kids were flipping between 5 live and talk shite, and it was 98% rags (a bit like our possession) all rag callers and all bar one with a London accent, the one being some ragess who 5 live gave a good 10 minutes to and she just kept saying the same shit shite, after which Chris Sutton said it was the best call in years - says a lot about Sutton’s opinion and 5 live callers. Then this morning on talk shite (the last hour that I’ve been driving) it was ALL about the rags nothing about us. We get nothing from these media cunts, the best football the PL has ever seen and the cunts obsess about a mid table pub team. PS I don’t want to be mean but how fucking thick is Jamie O’Hara? And now talk shite has that **** Jordan, so good at business he took his club into administration, I’m off to watch the recording of our game

I got stuck in traffic on the M6 coming north yesterday (missed the first 20 minutes) and had talkshite on. (I'd had enough of the war by that point.)

They started talking about the game at 5 past 4, The first 5 minutes was all about Liverpool and that they are going to win the league. The next 20 minutes was that the rags were going to win today.

It was a relief to park up and walk the last mile.

Starting to feel a bit sorry for him now, strange bloke with some strange mates who have strange views.

Lee wasn't at the game because of a family doo!
Is the Athletic his only job? If so, it shows you in what extremely low regard they hold City when their only City correspondent is given derby day off

Talk United this Morning on Talkshite.

I notice the time of your post. I switched it on around this time to hear Schteve McClaren and must have heard "Manchester United " 100 times

I had that daft woman on Talk Sport. "You can't polish a turd". Like most of these callers she knew nothing whatsoever about football. "I'd play the reserves". What a clown. And the presenters acting like she's some kind of football genius for saying the team are shit.

Fuck me, I don't even support Man United and I know exactly what the problem is: poor management from the top for ten years. When you start to berate an entire squad you are talking rubbish.

That girl was comedy gold
"It's not the manager's fault, it the coaches "
Well who's in charge of the coaching unless she meant the bus that got the rags to the stadium

Today's football news is not about City winning, it's about United losing.

If United had won, it would be about United winning, and nothing about City.

This is and will always be the reality of reporting about City and United after a Manchester derby.

Yeah, every media outlet was the same - radio, MotD, todays papers. It's as though they are willing for some magic wand to appear with every paragraph, word or syllable that is written or uttered. They are desperate to get the Rag 'steam train' puffing again! It'll be stuck in the sidings for some time yet. I think The Arse have got their mojo back and will keep ahead of them, so whoever stumps up at the Swamp next season will only have the Disney pot to go for!

Hahaha what a scumbag, absolutely devastated

He doesn't mention that there is a civil war in Yemen and the UAE is part of a Saudi-led coalition supported by NATO which is fighting on the side of the Goverment there. I am not defending what is happening in Yemen but it is a very different situation to what is happening in Ukraine.
Delaney also fails to mention that he works for a company whose majority owner is Lebdev, a Russian Oligarch with close links to Putin. The second largest shareholder with a 30 per cent stake is a Saudi businessman. So unless he works for no pay Delaney is being paid in what he himself would describe as "blood money."
