So is Keown on BT , the champions of England on the BRITISH Telecom channel and all they keep going on about is Leipzig .

Same with Townsend and the commentator on Bein Sport. RBL need to do this, do that, too attack City, blah, blah, blah.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Erm sure that Jake wanker presenting has just asked ‘where is the aggressive Leipzig we expected. It has to be better’ and then ‘the home fans are trying their best to get their team into it’ or something similar. He’s desperate for this ‘really good’ Leipzig to get back into it.

The five stages of commentating on city games when we are winning.
denial that city are any good, fondly recalling the last time we were beaten.
anger that the opposition are not trying hard enough.
bargaining - all it takes is for city to lose concentration once.
depression - long silences, comments about money and how much the subs/defenders cost.
acceptance - full time.

R5 live currently at the bargaining stage

 

[Metalartin]

Worse than that, he was moaning that it was City, 1-0 up, away from home, in the first half, who needed to take more risks. Why doesn't he just come out and say it: "Hope City overcommit and concede another counter attack goal, that's how you beat City you see".

Where's VAR when it's needed. Climbing and some.

Ian Dennis tried the money angle and she hit back.

 

[Rochdale Blue]

A friend of mine who owns quite a large business and is well clued up reckons the Glazers have been buying land around Old Toilet for some years now but don’t want to get into the development of the area. They will just keep hold of valuable land until it reaches its peak price. I’m only the messenger here, I’ve no knowledge whatsoever.

Did someone sell them the bridge over the ship canal?

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Tomorrow will be about the fallen giants in the Thursday Night Has Beens Cup , with the Ragsvbying for a quadruple , top four , Carabao Cup finalist , secnond rate european trophy and FA Cup Quarter finalists , not bad for a billion spend over 5 years.
Scum

 

[Rochdale Blue]

I could be wrong, but I thought The Rags bought the freight handling site between the stadium and heading up towards the Trafford Centre a few years back, quoting security concerns. Didn't want a site adjacent to them where "terrorists" could launch RPGs.

I can just see the mibs getting off the train from Euston and marching down Market St with their RPG's.

BT Sport ,City have a big cloud hanging over their future ....F off Humphrey you snidey prick

The lot of them were snidey. Camel gob laughing at Sweep, Keown and the other Leipzig fan boy constantly praising them.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

That Jake Humphreys is a proper negative c*nt towards us , every time he opens his trap he spouts shite and negativity , i can only think Jack is giving his Mrs a proper seeing to behind his back to produce so much hate.

That's fantastic. I might also add ensuring that any city goals no matter how well crafted are called as lucky, deflection or lucky bounce, keeper has to do better, how has defender allowed it to happen.

Hope to fuck that ape Keown is nashed off back to the bbc when Bt join up with the other lot

He was fairly positive about us - which shows the depths the rest have sunk.

 

[Metalartin]

Well atleast they didn't deny that was a penalty or try and get away with not even showing the replay... Even if the delivery/tone was entirely different than they'd have given it, for their darling clubs in the same circumstances. To be fair, it wouldn't be believable if they acted outraged by it.

When Camel said Dias need to get up earlier, smirking. Gvardiol only stayed up so long as he was on Dias shoulders.

 

[Metalartin]

I actually thought it was a good leap well timed but there's no denying that he prevented Dias from jumping to challenge him with his hands where they were. Maybe the likelihood of Dias preventing Gvardiol getting a free header comes into it. Do we know if there was a check atleast? I might be able to take that one if they've checked it.

They can't have checked the handball though(how can they not give that?), which is something they'd have never ignored if the shoe was on the other foot.

Confirmed by BT sport they did not check the handball...
