We have to remember that a shit rags team is terrible news for Sky, BBC etc, they will be fucking desperate for them to start signing top players so they can challenge for honours again. They will be shitting it that rag fans might start getting fucked off with the club and start to leave in droves, that's why we get bombarded with transfer story after transfer story about them, Ten Haag this Ten Haag that, Ronaldo this Ronaldo that.
They have to keep them sweet no matter how infuriating it is for everyone else

I'm not sure it is terrible news TBH, they've had more coverage over this window than anyone else I'd have thought. It's all about the clicks after all.

The Telegraph have an article on Sterling at Chelsea and why he left 'the Abu Dhabi owned club.' !
When has any other club be referred to by the country of their owner ?
Did Mane leave the American owned club ?
Did Coco the Clown refuses to join the American owned club?

I wouldn't wipe my arse with the Telegraph (even when it was a paper). Now it's behind a fucking 'paywall'... ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I'm sure both of it's readers are impressed though.

Not sure... I heard they're still on a dinghy en route from Calais.

I liked this from Bernardo :

"Playing in the Premier League and winning four titles in five years and checking the Premier League team of the year every year and knowing that we're never the team that has the most players. We don't have the best manager, we don't have the best players, but we still win four Premier Leagues in five years? It just doesn't make sense. It probably shows that City players don't get as much credit as they should.

"For me, it doesn't matter honestly. I'm happy with the titles that we have and with the memories that in the last five years, we won four times. Of course, we don't get the credit that we deserve."




I am glad he said it doesnt matter because I feel that our haters in the media want exactly this, City players to leave because their careers get ignored.

Yes I heard that, it was ridiculous, even mentioning their name about 3 times when talking about that failure Depay.

There's a Wembley born rag who hosts a podcast for the Times, who informs everyone he is a rag supporter and repeats their name numerous times on every episode. Doesn't sound like he's ever got his shoes dirty getting on a North bound train at Euston, much less ever having witnessed a live game.

Thought I'd tune into the muppets on the 7pm Transfer show on SSN to hear about our new LB signing, and instead I got an assault on my ears of "Manchesh Nited".

I actually counted 55 references of "Manchester United", averaging a mention of their club name every 20 seconds for 18 whole minutes.

Hells bells.

I’ve sent a complaint letter about the over the top coverage of the rags. They reply but don’t say if they’ll change - because we know they can’t.

Happy to DM the email chain if anyone else wants to bombard them too!!

Saw Jackie at a Sportsman’s Dinner many years ago, one of his opening gambit’s was:

“You may have heard me and our Bobby don’t get on, it’s true, he’s a right twat”

No love lost there

Was that at Duky Town Hall?

Since when have sky invited in these fan "vloggers" to comment on transfers. Sky Journos know FA, why would these plastic blog writes know any better? I'd rather listen to some pissed old fart on his view than some woman from the Clanfield Wrap. All of them have talked shite, not offered any intriguing insight. Just stating the obvious and offering views based on no substance.
