I see the media have really gone to town on the bottle throwing at the rags last night (not) The boiled bollock on Talkshite this morning said something along the lines of "Simeone must have done or said something to get that reaction from the crowd" like it was all his fault,
Just imagine the press reaction if that had been at the Etihad.

He did something alright...his team knocked the rags out of the CL

This is an extraordinary take for anyone who is not a Communist. What UK natural resources are in the hands of 'the people'? Very few, if any. When coal was nationalised, for example, the private owners were handsomely compensated. In other words 'the people' had to buy 'their' coal. Blimey, in the UK you can't even take fish out of a river, because the fish, although a natural product, are someone's property. Try telling Colonel Fanshaw-Smyth that his trout and salmon are 'the people's'. Has he stolen them?

The South African Sports channel Super Sports had SWP and Tim Sherwood in the studio the other night, both had nothing but praise for the performance, but desperately unlucky in front of goal.
Even had Martin Tyler on commentary along with Mathew Upson. Completely different animal to Sly and BT

Super sports is generally very good on our games.
 
The smiley bloke who does the sport on Granada reports was all giddy as he told us that Liverpool could cut the gap to one point after being thirteen points behind us not long ago. Now of course that is correct but of course he just failed to mention it was a false thirteen points as they had games in hand. I don't hold out much hope of Arsenal winning but it would give me immense pleasure to stop the media hysterics for a short while.

Did I hear him wrong or did he say keep winning after the segment?

Neville's diatribe about Saudi and UAE is not only about his jealousy and insecurity about the scums decline, it will also give him a topic to spout about when he appears on question time this week.
Moreso after the select committee this week.
GNIAC!!!

PM Johnson's trip to Dubai and Saudi Arabia shows how close the ties are between our countries and how much inter- dependancy there is. They know how much our economy is susceptible to the global oil market and there is enormous political pressure to reduce our dependancy on energy from Russia (led by Putin, the war criminal) and to help reduce the price of fuel at the pumps. I can't see any way the UK government or PL will sanction our owners or those from Newcastle however much hot air Neville spews.

That was superb! The 3 guys worked really well together with the same sort of humour we’ve got ...,,and remember they watch Leeds week in week out.
They absolutely demolish Humphry in a way that doesn’t mention his bias at BT but makes him out to be a self serving bellend and layer on top some funny social commentary. There’s the clear implication that the way Nelson Mandela improved his somewhat dire situation was getting out of the comfy chair and just going for it!!
There’s a good lesson for me at least in that not only are most pundits/journalists etc shitty because they hate us but even if City didn’t exist they would still be wankers.
 
Drury & Townsend talking about goal difference...

Townsend: "I think that shows you how unbelievable Liverpool have been, that their goal difference is better than City's"

Drury: "Shows you how good City have been that Liverpool have won 9 in a row and their still not top"

Townsend: "Heh heh heh... yeah, good point"

Im sure Mandela would say there was millions of my people in a very uncomfortable chair, everything we did was to try & get them in one.

Sadly you were right about Arsenal but I wish people would stop going on about the post Christmas lead over the dippers not being substantial or a false lead because of games in hand. Likewise we are not a team that is falling out of the sky, rather we are not quite firing on all cylinders.

The hysterical commentary will grow and well it should, because most of the footballing world are excited at the prospect of another epic contest between two excellent teams. The fact that we hate each others guts only puts jam on it.

It's brilliant isn't it. My missus grew up in Urmston, all her family are reds and, whilst she wasn't particularly interested one way or t'other she'd have definitely leant towards the red side in her youth. I took her to Maine Road, we were sitting fairly close to the front in the main stand and an opposition player took Ali Benarbia out, straight away she's on her feet shouting "Dirty Bastard" .... and I thought yeah, this one's a 'keeper'!
