Media thread 2022/23

[jrb]

Could have gone in the Liverpool thread or the Make a Liverpool Echo headline up thread.

The (Liverpool FC) Echo just can’t let it go.

Obviously they haven’t bought into this new friendship between Liverpool Football Club and City. Or refuse to.

Maybe they could do another in-depth article and find out who threw the pint pot filled with coins and liquid that injured the young City fan?

The narrative form the LFC/Echo continues.

Of course the cult will lap it up.

The Echo website is a pile of shite, just like it’s Sister MUEN website. Full of ads, a page that downloads slowly and get’s stuck. Hence the screen grabs rather than copy and pasting some of the article. If you want to read the full article the link is below. Just be patient whilst you get through it slowly.

Where's that from and what's the form,ula? The link I had said - £469m over last five years for City. Maybe I am not understanding though.

I had it saved to taunt rags & dippers so had to do a reverse image search. Looks like it came from here so all credit to @BlueCityBrain on twitter for it.

It is stark that. Thanks to BlueCityBrain.

If anything the narrative should be 'City are doing amazingly well competing with the free spending Man United's, Arsenal's, Chelsea's, Newcastle's and Liverpool's, with their considerably lesser limited spending.'

Tbh I think the media are doing cut and paste from lfc to arsenal.

'Poor' Arsenal
Arsenal have 'injuries'
City spend lots.

I think today more than any other the media have realised City will have a chance and that Arsenal might not win the title. And it's upset them.

Go City!

Plus the rag fans in the media getting giddy adds to it all..

How come we spend so little?

If the likes of West Ham & Wolves outspend us then imagine how good we’d be if we at least matched their spend. CL wins almost guaranteed and title sewn up by February. Are we deliberately trying to keep the league competitive?

We must surely have plenty to spend on a left back, fast winger and Bellingham in summer, given our income from TV & commercial deals.

No mention of those sponsorship values being deemed as fair value by none other than UEFA. Lazy journalism. Just look at the depth of our sponsors - Puma, Nexen, OKX, Sony, EA Sports, Hays, DS2, Gatorade, to name but a few. All clearly Abu Dhabi based sponsors, hmmmm.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

He really was last night, virtually every comment about us was a snidey little dig. Absolute tosser !

At least he is hurting .

When he's got an arsehole like Carragher or Neville co-presenting he is at his worst , but to be fair he should have been put out to grass a long time ago.

No mention of Standard Chartered fined hundreds of millions in the US and the UK for money laundering and breaking Iranian sanctions.

Also.

City aren’t owned by Abu Dhabi, stated in the skewed article, City are now owned by Shiekh Mansour and Silverlake.
