I think Ronnie and Moz used to organise the Fox bus, went with them a few times, Fox and Ridge Hill still going. Did you know Loz Mason?I was at that one, my mate was the steward at the time

Fox is still going as far as I know, not sure about the club.I think Ronnie and Moz used to organise the Fox bus, went with them a few times, Fox and Ridge Hill still going. Did you know Loz Mason?
Don't know the name Loz Mason but I'm not good with names.
Really happy I’ve binned em off Coverage of our games has been an will continue to be dire from these clowns and like you say the constant fawning over the other shambles is tedious bordering comical Fk em
Moyes and Antonio waxing lyrical at the weekend was perhaps the start of a new beginning. If not we should get tough and start hitting the naysayers with a ban from the ground unless they can reveal what exactly is their problem with us.I’m sure fellow professionals give credit where it’s due. The media is something else.

Not sure I see true recognition for our manager and players in the end of season players vote awards. Which surprises me but obviously they must believe the shit they read about us.I’m sure fellow professionals give credit where it’s due. The media is something else.

Fuck me that was a horrible blend of painful and infuriating. It's like you were conversing with a bot.Just to show how Sky don't care: here is the complaint email:

Dear Sirs
The programme has become a joke. EVERY programme has spent most of Its time discussing Manchester United. - their manager; their failures; their transfer targets. This is to the exclusion of the really interesting and successful clubs.
I can only assume you get funded by the amount of time spent discussing this one club.
They are now one of the mid table clubs. Why do you spend all your time discussing them & making them the headline feature.
Fans from all clubs are sick of it & you are losing them to other channels.
Change the record

Thanks for your prompt reply. I agree the matter needs some coverage but this week it's been wall to wall and frankly totally repetitive. Really poor presentation as there's not much to say about them other than they have been poor for the last ten years compared with the real top PL clubs. But there seems to be an agenda at Sky that you have to say the words "Manchester United" every 5 minutes.
Their days have gone. Can't you move on? Ooops- it's on again (5 minutes went by without mentioning them but most of that was for adverts)
There have been amazing things going on at Spurs; Arsenal; Forest - not to mention Liverpool & Man City but they have to share the spare half hour when you don't mention the "other" team.
Afraid you cannot just excuse the coverage given to MU just because they're not doing well.
It's really a disgrace and you have 19 other PL fans who are noticeably SICK of Sky & as soon as they can get coverage of games from less biased organisations they will leave in droves.
Listen to Peter Drury commentaries & compare him with the dross from Martin Tyler who mentions MU as soon as he can
You really need to take this seriously

You haven't answered any of my points
Are you going to raise the issyr with the people who matter? Will anything be done or are you just "going through the PR motions".
Glad I have all this in writing. I'm sure many media outlets will be interested to see how you fob off your customers.
I'd really appreciate a thoughtful reply
My aim was not just to "share my views" with you but for Sky to consider them and do something about them. Do you ever take action when you receive such complaints or do the MUFC connections rule the channel!
