Made the mistake of listening to the Totally Football podcast with James Richardson, Daniel Story and a couple of other people I've never heard of. No mention of our incredibly marginal offside goal, no mention of potential redcards, no mention of even the first 2 goals. The majority of the discussion was about Pep and Klopps handshake at the end of the game.

That's what we're dealing with in England, football journalists with pretty much no interest in actual football, they are just there for the soap opera. It's embarrassing.

These Football Times latest pod was about the fa youth cup and at one point came to the conclusion that City had no significant players coming through to the first team.

Over the years I’ve learnt the sensible thing is to stick to the City Pods

What!..so you can listen to that smarmy Scouse Muppet that the Bluemoon pod dredge up every time we play them.

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

It’s a pretty wanky word, though. Very David Brent-ish, ironically enough given you were relying to @Eric Hitchmough !

I don’t agree with that in the workplace :)

Once again Clive does it on Mastermind for us,bit much to be mentioning us again,so he did the next best thing and asked a question about the Dark Side losing in the Thursday night cup.
Well done Clive, I'm sure it can't be just me that notices.

Some clown complained on BBC Viewpoint
that Clive should not be doing 'serious stuff' on Mastermind whilst also being on HIGNFY a daybor two later where world politicians are mocked.

FFS.

Didn’t think you would somehow!

What a hectic schedule. Monday film Mastermind and fly to Ukraine, report from the front line for 2 days and then fly beck for a Thursday recording of HIGNFY.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Arghhhhhh, FFS, It wasnt Bambi that was shot. Why do people keep quoting this as it DIDN'T happen.
It was Bambis mum that got killed ..........
and later served with a red currant sauce, roast potatoes and broccoli stems.

OK I made the last bit up but it was bambis mum.

I'm not having that. It was red current jus.

Sauce ffs.

But was he at York away?

 

[Saddleworth2]

Wonder if the media ‘wonderful game’ narrative would have been different had the 5 big decisions gone City’s way instead of the bin dippers?

You know the answer. The annoying thing is those decisions have been airbrushed out. Hardly a mention and certainly no critical scrutiny from pundits or media.

He must be in charge of scheduling as well as his other talents.

Is that before or after the deep fat fryer?

 

[jjctid]

He’s proved nothing yet, he could turn out to be a bargain but we’ve seen players before showing promise who become utter shit, just look over the road at “Bruno”.

I have only seem him twice. The first time was against Forest where he was bullied by their right back and obviously the last game where although a cameo he was virtually anonymous. The jury is still out for him unless you are A- a liverpool fan OR B- one of our beloved unbiased media sycophants.

 

[train man]

Does Gordon and Mohammed who rang 606 last night post on here?

Gordon had Chris Sutton on toast and Mohammed, well what can I say, he was bloody amazing, he just reeled off all these facts and stats and was quite funny with it as well, I was pissing myself laughing at him.

Bravo to the pair of you.

Thanks for that, just had a listen on bbc sounds. You were right, Gordon 57:45, Mohammed 1'32:50
Mohammed: 'PL doesn't even stand for Premier league anymore, it stands for Pep's League' hehe...

But yes, what a contrary prick Sutton is, banging on eternally about (no) CL and not even in a devil's advocate style, trying to tell City fans what they would prefer to win - CL over PL - just fuck off you absolute twat.

He looks like a Columbian Wilo Flood to me.

If you're a Liverpool fan he's the best in the world... naturally

Everything they have, had or do is the best in the world laaaaaaaaa

Yes, but he went corporate, posh bbc buger.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

I gave rag Ogden a bit of a mouthful on the train back to Euston yesterday. To his credit he said he was surprised it was the only abuse he'd received on the journey back.

Shame he wasn't asleep. Then you could have slapped him & called him a shitbag.

 

[Blue Mist]

Oh shit, just when we were building a side to compete, our strawberry blond midfielder has had secret talks with Florentino Perez, the Real Madrid president. He's going this summer I just know it.
It must be true as Football 365 is reporting that a Madrid newspaper said it happened.

Oh, anybody know who we play tomorrow?

A couple of rag no marks who call themselves a protest group get top billing on talkshite sports news.
