Schmeichel a dick, tells Erling he played with his dad and his only contribution was being on the massage table for 12 months.

As I have said many times, Schmeichal is an egotistic **** that always has to make other people’s triumphs about himself. He does it in nearly every interview with our lads.

He's like a child who hasn't quite learnt how to banter yet. It's too personal, or too stupid - and it makes for fucking awkward tv.

Get fucked, we need conflict and the media are it.

Should we stop clicks to the site?

If we close this thread, then what am I supposed to do all day in work?

They did a small piece on Radio 4's 'Today' programme this morning. I was delighted to hear Chris Bird being interviewed. The interviewer did the 'tainted' trophies thing and got put down immediately and he argued that the PL had acted in an inappropriate way with the timing of the charges etc. She did refer to our ownership as being ADUG and amazingly the term 'state-owned' was not mentioned. Chris Bird referred back to our relegation in 1998 and the move to the new stadium which I think he was in charge of and emphasised our great achievements. I particularly liked the way he scorned the opportunity to compare our treble with United and he pointed out that as City fans we are only really concerned with our own achievements and not those of United. He was asked if our funding by an AD billionaire (note again not the AD state) was difficult for rival clubs to compete with and he made the point that our owners had invested in the club's infrastructure and not been so concerned about taking profits out of the club - unlike a lot of other PL clubs. All in all he referred to the sort of points that we have made on here. So well done Chris for telling it as it is like a true City fan. I suppose the programme has a really small audience compared to the typical media outlets who besmirch our name. But I was left with the feeling that it would be great if this could happen more often. I expect the usual suspects to deliver more and more venom as we pull further away from our rivals which is inevitable if they continue trying to stop us through devious means rather than concentrating on their own issues.

Relatively small audience amongst fans but very influential at many levels.
Well said, Chris.

I wonder if the Manchester Evening News have any plans for a special edition on the club's achievements this season?


Serious question BTW, not wumming.

The press are all about making headlines, they are well-aware that the vast majority of their readership are not City fans, so of course they will try to retain their employers’ faith by writing stuff that makes the readers feel good. I live in Bournemouth now so I rarely get to City games, and rely almost entirely on TV to watch my lifelong heroes, but straight after the match finished on Saturday, fireworks were going off in several places, just after the trophy was lifted. This doesn’t usually happen in Bournemouth except during the summer school holidays, November 5th or New Year. Yesterday one of my grandsons was playing in a six a side football tournament, and I was surprised but delighted to see several City shirts among the spectators, even Jack Grealish with a 10 on his back had miraculously made it back from Istanbul hours before the plane had landed. City shirts around here now seem more prevalent than our red rivals, and in the old days it used to be mainly Spuds or Chelsea. The times, they are a-changing.
