Liverpool miss out on multi-million payout as City Football Group seal transfer

Liverpool have been scorned by Manchester City and the City Football Group after losing one player for nothing in the transfer window that could have secured them millions

Story has fuck all to do with us yet were portrayed as ripping the dippers off.

No agenda though.

I love this in the comment section....

"Why do I even read this rubbish"

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

Is that a Freudian slip of just a typographical error? ;-) :-)

Haha, typing error, now amended....

"Utd battle for signature"
"Villa try to fend off City"

Subtle differences, and I understand its about attracting the bigger fanbases, but jeeez the red teams dont half get the positive spin.

BBC football website showing the rags U16s vs Ballymena U17s live.

Has to be a first.

Are they actually allowed to film under 16's playing football ? the local FA forbid it as they are classed as children, I think it's to prevent diddlers and other assorted wrong uns filming.

That'll be why the BBC are covering it

Or after he moved there to play centre mid and ended up at full back?

I remember that line being trotted out.
Clearly Milner running down his contact and moving for free resulting in a multi million pound signing on fee and huge salary increase wasn't a factor yet Sterling was the one branded as greedy by the scouse loving wankers in the media when he dared to leave the cult.

The inbred scouse bastards can do no wrong with the British media.

Apparently he got £6m net before he kicked a ball

It was OK though as it was revenue generated by candle sales rather than Dirty oil money.

I see the BBC are using fee payers money wisely and sending Dan Roan to Tokyo for the Olympics. Get where water doesn't that c*nt.

If it means he's the other side of the world from us that'll do me.

All of which led to Sterling become the nations no 1 hate figure while honest James was lauded.

Just waiting for the headline "Greedy Grealish joins City Cheats"

Just waiting for the headline "Greedy Grealish joins City Cheats"

Then Lineker to pipe up: "£100 million...football's gone" to nods of agreement from Shearer, Wright et al.

Now now - Milner was clearly pursuing a life long ambition of playing left back for the serial winners of hearts and minds............

The headline in the Daily United.

Do you think the Daily United would have used the same headline if United and Solskjaer had made a £100mill bid for Grealish?

Before we were challenging, we were ignored. We guessed that all the full spreads and accolades were given because the media rep’s were either fans of their clubs or needed to get copy. Now we are more than passed that ascendency all those thoughts have proved correct.

The media do not hate us because we are City, they hate us because we are not their club and now have to work twice has hard to get the clicks.
