In 2012, Roan was banned from all media activity involving Manchester City following an interview with Patrick Vieira, which had been originally arranged to promote Football Against Hunger, a charity Vieira was involved with. Vieira was quoted in the interview as stating that city rivals Manchester United receive favourable refereeing decisions when playing at home. Roan was accused of deliberately taking Vieira's comments out of context and engaging in 'leading and aggressive questioning'.[2]

In 2018, Roan faced calls to resign following his comments at the memorial for Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and four other victims of a fatal helicopter crash. Roan alleged that the Leicester City's boss had a 'mistress who died in the crash'.[3] Following, Roan issued an apology to explain that the comments were made off-air and with 'no offence intended'.[4]

What’s that called then?

Mediawashing by the BBC?

Fucking Hypocrites.

Matt Hughes in Mail today in his article that Premier League clubs are voting to outlaw state ownership in the future.

Stating City are 78 per cent owned by the Abu Dhabi Sovereign Wealth Fund.

It's just blatant lying.

Well they’ll get a shock if brought in and expect our owner to sell up.

I always reckoned we did. Big losses at Bristol City and Derby did for us

The 2-1 defeat at Anfield didn't help. A game I missed because our car broke down on the East Lancs.

It might be because it's targeted towards me (as a city fan), but which other media puts paid ads on articles about transfers with over inflated fees to get clicks? The Athletic trying to grow their Twitter following by quoting as high a package as possible in a promoted post.

Correct Tolmie, and the never ending bullshit narrative around the club, always comforted, by posters like prestwich blue and others who actually know there shit. However the trump card for me is a mate of mine , law degree, masters at Cambridge, lectured in law at four Uk universities, specialised in sport and business. He is not a city fan, but is adamant, that premier league rules and FFP would not stand up in a real court of law. don't think we will contest. However Newastle might,
pretty sure they have no intentions.of finishing midtable.

The 4 0 defeat at Derby one of my worse days watching City, after that always outsiders for the title. Played Derby first game following season came from a goal down twice to draw 2 2 only times I was at Derby.

It is simply not normal to quote all in packages for players. Just observe the Nunez to Liverpool stuff today. Fee only. Its as plain as the nose up their arse.

Sure we'd gone 15 games without defeat and I think Trevor Cherry scored with a free kick. They had to open the gate for one City fan because he was too big to go through the turnstile.

I think the fan who was to big to get through the turnstile was Alan Potter from Denton.
