Matterfaeces and that miserable big foreheaded ****. ITV surpassing themselves. AFTV would have been more neutral.

It was set up to make money, which it has done throughout the last 31 years.

By continually promoting the " favoured teams ".

Sad to think that the stupid twat has been between Natalie Sawyer's legs, she surely deserved better .

She booked in to see a shrink. But it only reminded her of 'little' Sam.

It’s not that simple though, is it? Between them, united, Arsenal and Liverpool have won one title in the last decade, around a third of the lifespan of Sky, and yet the money keeps rolling in. Not denying that their narrative is geared to promote those teams, but the suggestion that the business model is predicated on those clubs winning things (as was implied) is demonstrably wrong. We have dominated over the last ten years and yet the business is still thriving.

Really don't understand how he gets so many gigs. The bloke rates himself highly but he is a complete nerd. Thinks his own opinion is the best out there and is an expert on the game. In reality he makes quite bizarre observations.

That's true, for now, the bigwigs at EPL, SKY, BT, BBC, ITV etc etc know what's good for the brand and IMO we are at a tipping point, they need one of the "glory clubs" to be back, in their eyes we aren't good for the brand long term

They'll accept Arsenal breaking our monopoly for now, but Liverpool or The Rags one of them needs to be there or there abouts

Arsenal TV tonight. Fucking disgraceful

Some balance would have been good wouldn't it, Dixon did actually say something like 'don't write US off yet' when 4 mins(?) of injury time came up.
In truth I think the official City website commentary is more balanced (obviously pro City but generally fair in their assessments) Did try and have the TV muted with the website commentary but it isnt in sync and is slightly out.
They said Pep was being miserable. He does look a bit 'narky' at times for sure, but as someone put on one of the threads last night all the questions were pretty inane ones about Arsenal and he probably thought 'here we bloody go again'!

I think ‘needs’ is hugely overstating it. Prefers, sure.

And ‘the brand‘ is stronger than ever, so that argument doesn’t currently hold much water.

What’s your reasoning behind the tipping point being now, rather than, say, a year ago?

Maybe last year Newcastle weren’t in the picture, so it was only nasty upstart City that spoiled the red vision of nirvana, this year Newcastle have performed better/earlier than expected, so it’s getting imperative to react to their nightmare scenario of no red teams
