It's wishful thinking from those barely capable of rational thought.
Agree after around 25 mins someone for Palace drops like a fly in each half for a 5 min time out when they are most under pressure . I've seen this at Etihad too . Only 2 mins added in first half , was much longer than that kouyate was rolling around.Made this EXACT same comment to my son!
Grealish was called for a “cynical” foul when he tried to get the ball but caught the back of the Palace player’s leg, but then, within minutes, Palace were being admired for a “good tactical foul.”
The double standard is a joke. Then, on BBC, they were all over Rodri for dinner many fouls without receiving a yellow card, even when he ran to Kouate to complain about his diving and time-wasting.
And, yet another game where the time-wasting started from the kick off, but not a single time-wasting word, let alone yellow card! Even Vieira was kicking the ball away when it rolled out of play at their bench!
Fucking hate these kind of teams, yet everyone lauds them because their negativity blunts the most beautiful football they’ve ever seen played. It’s strange, isn’t it? Lauding NEGATIVE PLAY, simply because we are favorites to win.
The commentators succumb to it, the home fans succumb to it, and then, post-match, the media piles in. Next thing you know THEY played a masterpiece and we were poor!!!
It’s lazy, boring and uninformed…but no-one outside of City fans cares.
Iv already switched off from the mainstream media gonna feel like a hermit it i totally stop following the sports media haha!I might still post the odd Daily United screen grab picture on this thread, but by and large I’ve given up on the football media in this country.
The absolute fawning over the Scousers when they won their only PL title in 30 years, set a a marker. Winning the CL only only made it worse. If the Scousers win the title this season, let alone do the quadruple, treble, or double, it will be even worse.
Switch yourselves off from the Liverpool love-in about to sweep the football media in this country.
Ah that explains why I was struggling to put 2 + 2 together with some comments last night in some threads.Where's the thread from the bbc sport chap who wanted some fan previews of the Saints cup game?
The replies I saw all told him to do one. If he wondered why, he should look to the charlatans he works with, and the biased skewed and racist reporting the eminates from their sports editor. The corporation's coverage of the Ukraine war has been praised by some, though there's still a huge amount of sensationalism, imo. But they're proud of their news coverage and defend it to the hilt.
Does the sports department have no accountability for its facile output? When a poster said there was no coverage of the palace game tonight, like an idiot, I looked. If you click on either of the teams for tonight's kick off, the preview does come up. But no other articles for the defending champions, in the context of a currently tight title race?
If you think I and many others on here are imagining things, do you really think a rags or dippers game would have so little build-up?
Hope the whole bunch of red shirt apologists are still traumatized by yet another demolition derby by the boys in blue.
Load of celery labias!
A Yorkshire Terrier will do him, break his neck in 1He needs shooting.
The worst product to come out of any Ferguson team EVER.
It’s getting to a point that they can say anything now and nothing will get doneAs for the comments on here from ratboy and spitty, well the club need to sort this out now hopefully, they've been deemed to go over the line now...all this 'ignore it and it'll go away is never going to happen.
As for 'good foul', 'cynical foul'.....I'm just so glad I never do the pre-game, half-time or full-time fillers and never commentary.
