Media Thread - 2021/22

2 questions

1. Do they count the people taking the piss out of them

2. Any idea when the parade will be.

They might get more for a parade than the last one! Oops.

Yep. All they have to do is add a clear disclaimer to the results pages saying the scores are not the opinion of the BBC. The problem from my perspective is that they validate them by using the highest score to award a MOTM and then go on to do this "team of the year so far" nonsense where one would expect there to be some representation from the team leading the table by a substantial margin.

What you say is correct but regrettably Dipperpool have a huge following worldwide & they provide the clicks the BBC want. Thus the BBC don’t care that the team of the year is a farce because it has no players from what ITV describe as the “best team in the world”

it’s an embarrassing article and reflects on the bbc accordingly. They become less authentic every day.

Lol if anyone thinks it expects city are loved by the general fan is naive. When utd were top dog their players were generally hated. It comes with the territory.

You’d be surprised. A lot of other supporters are still in the ‘anyone but Utd or Liverpool camp’ and are more than happy with us winning swag.

Neil Ashton working his PR magic again.

Beyond parody.

Dippers cheating.

Media accuse city of protecting nonces...

The Guardian up to its usual tricks….this piece front and centre with the headline in blue to make it stand out, also coincidentally, the picture used shows Bennell wearing a sky blue sweatshirt, not unlike the colour of the City kit.

Manchester City cannot be held responsible for Barry Bennell abuse, court rules

High court judge makes ruling over abuse suffered by eight schoolboy footballers more than 30 years ago

A random point from yesterdays draw for the 4th round of the fa cup. On the bbc, every single draw had more Thumbs Up than Thumbs Down... Except one game. Wanna guess which game it was? Remember though....No one cares about us!

Standard.

Pretty sure the Yaya's birthday cake story was blown up in the media to try and hide some Rag/Dipper story.

 

[Colin Bell (genuine name)]

That’s not a bad looking team to be fair, but if they played in the Prem we’d still be top of the league

Sols acting for the claimant is the same as the one acting for someone who got injured whilst riding a motorised scooter on highway illegally looking for compo. Cowboys

This poll you are all going on about.....

We had 2 players in Garth Crooks Team of the Year. And he knows his stuff does Garth.



N.B I ain't got a scooby if the fat bellend named any of ours. I made that number up.

[MillionMilesAway]

So the best team in The Premier League have no players in The BBC's team of the league so far?

Seems legit....

It's created using the postmatch ratings, so it's a popularity contest to some degree. Have a bunch of clickmad people to rate their own players highly, and they'll come out on top.

 

[spiny]

Was it not proven that the likes of Liverpool were linked to companies who promoted social media presence and click bait on behalf of clients?

Why does the BBC web coverage of tonight’s game between the rags and Villa state: Dion Dublin - Former Manchester United striker on BBC One.
Have they conveniently forgot he played 10 times as many games for Villa?
