Media thread 2022/23

[Stiff Little Wingers]

ITK’s often have been told something in good faith. Players change their mind. I was told by someone very prominent in the game that Hazard was a done deal. Everything agreed till he and Mancini butter heads over the position he would be played.

I think us crushing Madrid lead them to act in desperation, they may well have blown our deal out of the water. Make no mistakes about it, that 4-0 crushing changed the landscape of European football.

I was being sarcastic but not doing it very well

I trust Tolmie more than I trust anyone else in the media. They just literally make stuff up. Nobody is going to be bang on 100% of the time. Football just doesn’t work like that.

Yes me too. I value his posts but was being sarcastic as I thought Sergio 1970 was being.

Can you share the link where he said it was done?
Or you just shit-stirring.

You tell him to fuck off and get his facts straight, then ask him to provide a link to what he claims in a separate post, only on BM ha ha

Pound for pound think Dennis Irwin was Fergusons best outfield signing and didn't seem a twat unlike Beckham, Giggs etc

Times a great healer, never thought I'd be agreeing Mr Benn (as he was known at the time) was a half decent rag!!!!

We, as fans, take the hit from all the media sh1te. If you look at it from the City business point of view; they don’t do confrontation, it only leads to more bad headlines and nothing changes, in fact it only makes it worse. So maybe they have it right. Ask yourself, from a business point of view, has all the bad press effected our winning of trophies? Has it effected our income in any way be it fans in stadiums, selling merchandise, lack of sponsorship etc? No it hasn’t. We are the fastest growing club in the world and non of this sh1te is effecting the bottom line.

’Taking on’ the media as some on here advocate would be a total waste of time. I have said for years that the best way to tackle them is ignore. The media hate a vacuum. Don’t react to the numpties and most of all don’t buy a paper either hard or soft copy. I haven’t bought a paper in 30 years, do the same, bin Sky or just watch with the City commentary like I do. I can’t believe, after all that is said on here, why people still listen to TalkSh1te, bin it for Christs sake - they want you to react that is what makes them money. I have actually learnt not to hear or react to snide remarks made in public - it makes the speaker feel like a cûnt, they only do it to get a reaction. True friends will not give you grief.

Have a feeling a complete 180 will happen soon regarding Qatar human rights issues. Qatar in fact will be the biggest democracy, a good arabic country, an example in the Middle East.

Can you imagine the journos called City fans rats and all will go and do the same to rag fans? More like it would be long articles what western democracies can learn from Qatar and stuff.
