Talkshite announces the LC draw has taken place. 5 matches mentioned including that featuring last years runners up. No mention of 4 times straight winners at all. Very strange albeit we are drawn to play the conquerors of the biggest club in the world. That will be it then!! Oh yeah and the news announcer first states that the rags beat WHU, albeit he then corrected himself. Its hilarious isn't it.

It's getting more and more blatant form all the biggest media sports outlets as the season goes on. It's always been bad, but never this bad.

I'm far from being paranoid, but since Neil Ashton was head hunted by United to run their PR and Media department, the sports media in general have taken every opportunity to either have a go at City, or to completely ignore City. Coincidence?

Much as i despise the Rags it was a good move getting someone like Ashton to run their PR , if City did a similar thing i would choose Martin Samuel from the Mail always comes across as one of the more sensible journalists and he is experienced enough to have all the contacts required. Good PR is vital for any club but when we have owners who are marginalised because of their ethnicity we need a top guy to try and reverse that trend and shout from the rooftops about all the good work Sheik Mansour has done for East Manchester & MCFC.
The irony that football globally is fighting racism but when the media openly criticise our owners because of their location and beliefs they are just allowed to get away with it.

I too am disgusted by the bias at the BBC and something has to change. Their news coverage is generally good and some of their drama is outstanding. I have to admit that their light entertainment is among the best in the world.

Last sentence, one word: Miranda.

I am sat in a pub in Chorlton right now howling at the plastic cunts, been to their one game a season and talking like they’re awayday regular MIBs.Tourists and shitbags. Giving the JCL cunts loads of shit, not taking it well. Updates as we get them live from the scene, Clive

 

[johnnytapia]

How many empty seats at the Rags? Are there any headlines about it yet?

Only in your head

 

[RobinHood]

72,000 so not many empty seats

72,000 but not many trophies.

Sky sports news 4 of them this morning talking about Liverpool last night and the squad depth went on for about 5.6 mins then a cursory mention of our game and the young lads then moved on,every time I switch it on in the morning about 7.30am it’s either rag or red scousers they are talking about, is it any wonder a large percentage use iptv and so on..

Its enough to make you want to follow rugby or some other game.
I don't see the UK tv but I'm sick of reading about Neville and Spitty.
All about rags and victims.

Some big gaps in the top tier corners. Reported as 72k but that's bollocks.
Not arsed about their crowds really but Tyler and fucking Rob Green went on about it 5 fucking times. Says to me it was obviously a PR stunt. A full on Sky blow job. Surprised not.
And they were shite and went out so fuck off.

Tyler has always been a paid up member of United's fan club. Especially during Fergie's reign. The wine room wasn't created just for show.

Tyler was a disgrace last night, thank fuck I only watched the last 10 minutes - he was desperate for an equaliser.

Remember the story in the Guardian years ago, can be found online, when the police confirmed the Rags added between 10,000 to 20,000 to the actual crowd figures

 

[Bonzo Nododo]

No football results on Granada news tonight just bullshit about ratboy education and the class of 92 FFS.

No results on BBC national news either although they had a piece on safe standing. All this
pretending over results and attendances is becoming childish and tedious.

 

[waspish]

I watched most of the game and the swamp looked full.
fcuk em who cares, they lost.

Did you take pictures while you was there of all the top tiers where it’s pitch black! The scum never allow camera to show top tier! Those top tiers in cup games are always empty if half empty!

 

[goatinho]

A quick scroll through talksports twitter feed notices that there is no mention of utds loss....just a thing about who will score more , ronaldo or sala and something about Saint Rashford the saviour to all.

It’s only remotely close to full because they’re all forced to buy the tickets for the cup games.

They were beaten a few years back l think by Boro who filled one end. The rags can control the inflated attendance figures and even tv camera angles but they couldn't control the pictures taken by the happy away fans of the top tier to the right without a soul in it. That's a big empty space. A lot of missing fans.
