Burley isn't everyone's cup of tea, but he can be on the button. They were discussing having ex-pros in the VAR box and he said (something along the lines of) " have you seen the state of most pundits. They are nothing but glorified cheerleaders." Made me chuckle. On YouTube if you want to have a look.

Found it. At 9.55 here.

It’s disingenuous tripe. I am sure you were being kind by describing them as “muppets”. Cretins spreading nothing but red poison.

Liverpool have a very good team. City are reigning champions and are hitting a purple patch. Any sane person would agree that we are favourites due to the amount of times we have lifted the trophy but these muppets cannot comprehend nor have they got the backbone to report a factual case.

You might aswell be watching a football showbiz channel hosted by Olly Murs ;) sky don’t have a reputation as a serious broadcaster. Just because they show the majority of games does not make them a leading authority. Treat it like a gossip column.

Spot on there Wolvie.

I've said it many times before Sky Sports News is nothing more than a magazine programme.

I remarked during the game that they were playing like players who didn't know their system, like when a club have signed 5 new players and try to integrate them all at the same time, or the first pre-season game back after 2 months off.

Yes, the open spaces in midfield that were obvious was a clear indication of problems.

After a morning of frantic Googling, Delooney has now finally dug out an old article with some mild criticism about liverpool and is using it as a defence to being caught red handed

Daily Heil shit stirring to support their racist trope that Arabs buy their way out of any rules etc.

Just watching the recording off BT. Did Ian dark side just say Leeds were in the box seat (at 2 0 down) and then 2 mins later say Leeds were about to go 4 points clear at the top? Not just a **** but a senile ****

That story is not supported by a single quote or piece of evidence. I don't believe that City would ever consider suing the PL over a proposal to ensure sponsorhips are "fair market value." All our sponsorships have already been independently checked repeatedly as part of UEFA's FFP regulations. UEFA didn't even accuse us of this (their allegation was not about the scale of sponsorships but where the money may have come from.) The CAS decison re-inforced the fact that our sponsorships were fair value.
This is just another bogus Daily Mail smear story from an unnamed source which is designed to damage City (and Newcastle). It could only have come from someone who is the loop ie a senior Chairman from one of the other PL clubs. If I was a betting man and, given that the story was created by Matt Hughes, my money would be on another toxic briefing to the Daily Mail from Daniel Levy.

Levy is no doubt bitter because he screwed himself over on the valuation of Kane, and now he's left himself with a sulky out of form player on a downward spiral.

If Sergio had broke records with the scum or dippers SSN would dedicate a full fucking sports channel today.

He gave them the most dramatic PL moment. Relegated to the yellow sports ticker.

Cunts.

They have a wonderful way of revising history and Sky lap the **** as fact.
