49.8 Possession
50.2

53.9 Territorial Advantage
46.1
They were wrong,the stats Buzzer saw may have been for a certain section of the game.
The bottom line is they lied about the possesion we had more.

Don't know but Summerbee said City had 60% possesion and had more chances than Utd though.

Highest posession was 55%-45%, but overall both the BBC and Sky have the overall possession at 49% to United and 51% to Manchester City.

Not exactly 60% but neither was it 54% to Man Utd. They did it to make him look foolish, whereas Summerbee, without the advantage of cameras, computers and stats boards, was still able to use logic to determine that the match was NOT as one sided as his fellow pundits and the presenter were making out at the time.

Had Sky Sports given the 'impartial' and 'unbiased' sports coverage they claim to do, then Summerbee would not have felt so frustrated. He felt like his views were being attacked and that his assumption that City played well and matched United were being ridiculed as nonsense, when the stats ACTUALLY show, that Summerbee was right.

City and United had an equal number of chances, again Summerbee, with 30 years over his fellow prsenters and lack of game statistics equipment called it right, yet they ridiculed him on that too.

How can anyone say he was making a fool of himself when Rooney was MOTM and one of their pundits said Silva was MOTM until Rooney scored that goal and he had a poor game.

Mike Summerbee you were spot on and are a credit to this football club.

Already have done mate.

Here's my letter:

I am writing to express my complete and utter condemnation of the treatment given to a true English Legend such as Mike Summerbee during your coverage of the Manchester Derby on 12/2/2011.

It seems very obvious to me that every attempt was made to belittle, ridicule and demean every positive comment the former Manchester City winger made, by his fellow pundits Redknapp and Yorke and of the main presenter.

The most telling was their attempt to portray Mr Summerbee as someone who was not in complete possession of the facts of the game by revealing the stats which showed Man Utd had a 54%-46% possession advantage over Manchester City.

However the TRUE faces as stated on your OWN website and various other websites shows that Mr Summerbee was actually correct in his assumption that Manchester City possessed a greater period of possession (51%-49% in favour of Manchester City)

I would like to know whether or not it is the general practice of Sky Sports football coverage to present inaccurate facts and to demean past legends of the game just so you can present a positive and superior image of Man Utd over Manchester City.

I also noticed the bias concerning Mr Tyler in his commentary, went beyond the realms of the acceptible and a blatant example of a lack of impartiality.

For someone like myself who has subscribed to Sky Sports for 7 years, i have noticed this trend for a while but it is only after today that it has become glaringly obvious that, for a self confessed impartial sports broadcaster, today's events and spiteful, playground demeaning of Mr Summerbee leads me and indeed others, to believe this is anything but the case for Sky Sports, and as a result i am seriously considering my subscription as a viewer, i don't expect to see a one-sided viewpoint from the presenters and indeed the network for such high profile games such as this.

I expect at least a reply from someone at Sky Sports to explain why the programme had an obvious bias towards Man Utd and the dispicable attempt of demeaning a long serving former English footballer using inaccurate or misinterpreted statistics which have since shown Mr Summerbee's comments to be wholly accurate in their delivery.

When I felt at my lowest today - immediately following the game - one of my all-time heroes made me rise up again and feel immensely proud.
Thats what heroes do.
Buzzer, I love you.

Correct, ignore the other shit, and how does the worst player on the pitch gets man of the match for one piece of genius, its called luck in the real world, because 99 times out of 100 he would not have scored, and probably 75/100 not even connected with the ball.

$ky-mutv in City legend humiliation shocker

Watch the Rooney goal again carefully....came off the middle of his shin.

Thought I was being biased until my lad rang up saying the same thing.
