Remember Rob whatshisname, worked for Sun, had to apologise on Sunday Supplement one year when he said City had Mancini in the stadium when Hughes was sacked?

A right pisshead, he was eventually discovered and sacked for not turning up to international games when Uefa and FIFA rang the desk to ask why their accreditation wasn't being used and we're going to have the revoke it.

The twat was at home drinking and covering games off the telly.

Closest I ever came to doing that was at Blackburn one year, so cold I couldn't type.

I spent second half doing it from the press room and watching it on their internal TV with pea and ham soup and sarnies.

Bliss.

Memory serves me right, the story about Mancini came from twisting the facts as he had his assistants come to, think it was, Wigan away as I was corporate at City at the time so when I had away tickets they were always the best seats and I had them sat next to me. Didn’t know it at the time but soon as I saw them once he was appointed it all made sense.

Spot the difference reporting from BBC in a week, same reporter for both

Last weekend Rags v Villa Womens report, 1st sentence:
Manchester United scored five against Aston Villa in a one-sided affair at Old Trafford in front of a club record crowd in the Women's Super League.

(crowd was just over 30k at Old Trafford so half full)

Today, Us v Rags Women
Mention about the attendance only just added, was not in earlier reports and not at the top of the report like the Rags one and they had to get a dig in:
City announced the attendance as 44,259, which would be the second highest in WSL history and a record for Manchester City women's football, but there seemed to be a lot of empty seats on a freezing afternoon.

So a much higher attendance in a smaller capacity stadium but only 1 report mentions empty seats
Just what u expect from the BBC

Well said. It is concrete evidence in black and white like this, that 100% confirm there is an active bias within the BBC.

I hope someone makes a complaint about this, because it is such an obvious bias by a supposedly neutral organisation, which we pay for. If anyone has the contract details, I'd be only too pleased to do the honours.

Ah right. I just recall a December game, Boxing Day, 95/96? at Ewood, coldest I’ve ever been (and I lived in Moorsdide, Oldham). Couldn’t wait to get back to my car, plus we lost 2-0.

I was feeling a bit achy before the game but soldiered on!
Went in my 'lucky', but, thin blue coat.
Like you said lost 2-0 and I was in bed for over a week. I was so ill!!!!!!!!!!!
Took me weeks to get right. Wore what I want (and what kept me warm) since then rather than relying on a bloody coat to try and get three points!!!!!!!!!!!

Wasn't it Rob Shepherd [who had to apologise on Sunday Supplement], the one Graham Taylor told to cheer up in a press conference on the documentary about us fuckin up the USA94 qualifying?

No, it was definitely Beasley, the bald Chelsea fan from the Midlands, a guy who used to love to make veiled references to how handy he was in a fight. He was egged on in his ranting by Paul Smith, a Spurs fan who looked like Dracula's less attractive brother and was clearly desperate to get stuck into the vodka when on the early Sunday Supplement slot. @tolmie's hairdoo will know the details better than I do, but both of them have managed to piss their careers up the wall, even in a milieu famous for its tolerance of badly behaved drunks.

I believe that Rob Shepherd is another one with, let's say, alcohol issues. No idea what he's doing now, but he was accepted back into the industry after once serving time for having tried to bite a bloke's nose off during a dust-up in a bar: Express man gets prison sentence. Bear this in mind the next time you see people of this ilk try to moralise about our ownership.

It was indeed Beasley. He's a Chelsea fan and a big admirer/mate of Hughes and he outright lied on Sunday Supplement that Mancini was in the stands for Hughes's last match before he was sacked.

He was duly exposed as a liar and he promised to apologise to City fans for it on his next appearance on Sunday Supplement. During a discussion about something else he suddenly veered off topic and mumbled "I promised to apologise to City fans so now I have" and immediately went back on topic. No mention of what he was apologising for which mjust have confused a lot of neutrals. As apologies go it was as low key and mealy mouthed as they come. And it was clear he didn't mean it.
