Remember Rob whatshisname, worked for Sun, had to apologise on Sunday Supplement one year when he said City had Mancini in the stadium when Hughes was sacked?

A right pisshead, he was eventually discovered and sacked for not turning up to international games when Uefa and FIFA rang the desk to ask why their accreditation wasn't being used and we're going to have the revoke it.

The twat was at home drinking and covering games off the telly.

Closest I ever came to doing that was at Blackburn one year, so cold I couldn't type.

I spent second half doing it from the press room and watching it on their internal TV with pea and ham soup and sarnies.

Bliss.

Memory serves me right, the story about Mancini came from twisting the facts as he had his assistants come to, think it was, Wigan away as I was corporate at City at the time so when I had away tickets they were always the best seats and I had them sat next to me. Didn’t know it at the time but soon as I saw them once he was appointed it all made sense.

Scousers making threats of violence, who’d a funk it. An interview from Talksport lifted to turn into an article in the Mail, shows how piss poor this is. Anyways I’m sure Bernardo will be saying ‘Paddy who?’

Bernardo should challenge him to a game of football.

Who the hell is this scrawny arse ‘bin dipper‘ Pimblett? Wants to fight
Bernardo because Bernardo made him cry. He‘s a ******* loser!

Spot the difference reporting from BBC in a week, same reporter for both

Last weekend Rags v Villa Womens report, 1st sentence:
Manchester United scored five against Aston Villa in a one-sided affair at Old Trafford in front of a club record crowd in the Women's Super League.

(crowd was just over 30k at Old Trafford so half full)

Today, Us v Rags Women
Mention about the attendance only just added, was not in earlier reports and not at the top of the report like the Rags one and they had to get a dig in:
City announced the attendance as 44,259, which would be the second highest in WSL history and a record for Manchester City women's football, but there seemed to be a lot of empty seats on a freezing afternoon.

So a much higher attendance in a smaller capacity stadium but only 1 report mentions empty seats
Just what u expect from the BBC

Well said. It is concrete evidence in black and white like this, that 100% confirm there is an active bias within the BBC.

I hope someone makes a complaint about this, because it is such an obvious bias by a supposedly neutral organisation, which we pay for. If anyone has the contract details, I'd be only too pleased to do the honours.

City weren't involved. Was covering a Blackburn game at home to Spurs.

Ah right. I just recall a December game, Boxing Day, 95/96? at Ewood, coldest I’ve ever been (and I lived in Moorsdide, Oldham). Couldn’t wait to get back to my car, plus we lost 2-0.

I was feeling a bit achy before the game but soldiered on!
Went in my 'lucky', but, thin blue coat.
Like you said lost 2-0 and I was in bed for over a week. I was so ill!!!!!!!!!!!
Took me weeks to get right. Wore what I want (and what kept me warm) since then rather than relying on a bloody coat to try and get three points!!!!!!!!!!!
