MUEN again and again

I wonder how many times a correspondent from the MEN has to go on to Redcafe and apologise for mistakes in the MEN for articles about United if I would hazard a guess I bets its never

It isnt about an agenda its about negative press. Look at all the positive press this Liverpool side is getting and yet they made as big as loss as we did is that the story in the media no but our loss was

I admire the fact that SB has come on to the forum to defend the MEN I am just disappointed that he has to

When will the rest of the employees realise that by writing these stories they are alienating potential customers. I live in north Wales so dont get the paper but used to go on-line but just hide the publication on my news now feed since the empty seats article

Maybe nobody on there makes a song and dance about anything they print though? You'd have to ask one of our resident cafe-goers from here to check, of which there are many.

And if you think United fans don't think the MEN is anti-united, think again. United fans I know call it the Manchester Evening Blues, to name just one nick name for it.

I dont think City fans make more or less of a song and dance as United fans I just think that the MEN has overstepped the mark and has actually denigrated both the club and fans to the extent that they have turned off customers

Clearly they've not turned off customers though, as it's all people on here talk about with the slightest whiff of anything negative said. What was it the other day? 'They've not talked about the game', despite there being a 9-page pull out on it.
People look for negatives, and more often than not they find a negative that isn't even there to be found in the first place. That's in general by the way, not just the Evening Blues.

For those people like myself P.who read it on a regular basis,you should see how much negativity they`ve given those fuckers "over the road" within the last month.Fucking hell they have been doing a great job and I`m not talking about the odd column,but pages and pages about Moyes and his poor management skills.
Pity that those people on here who claim the MEN is shit should grow a pair and look at both views on both clubs.

That's the problem with instant news - people rush to get stuff up, and errors can occur - they are usually small, harmless ones like this.
The problem is that, with the level of paranoia amongst some people on here, every little error becomes interpreted as a major slight, all part of a conspiracy theory.
It's not just City coverage where these things happen, but other stuff, and stuff which could easily be interpreted as anti-United, does not get highlighted on here, nor does the overwhelming amount of positive, pro-City stuff we publish.


The snag is when you get "innocent" mistakes after publishing intended mistakes.

Your paper was "at it" again Stuart.
Like I've said get a new job, that place will drag you down.


he doesn't need "dragging down", he is already down - he comes on here and defends all the snide shit that his rag publishes, so why does he get credit for anything?<br /><br />-- Wed Mar 05, 2014 10:32 am --<br /><br />

This was on the MUEN website last week.
Look at the picture and see the figures of how much he gets paid a week.
There is no mention of it in the article which leads me to believe that it was done to counter the negative press the scum were getting with Rooneys new contract.
It was quickly removed.

Do you think it is more likely that this picture was used by accident - the sub-editor accidentally attached the pic of Aguero already used in this article:

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/manchester-city-player-wages-fans-6753659" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... ns-6753659</a>

As you say, it was "quickly removed" - because he realised his error.

But why let the truth get in the way of another load of paranoid tosh?


how dare you come in here talking about "paranoid tosh" - if your rag did not publish the picture with the salary on it then there would have been no issue, but it did - so frankly you are the paranoid one, muppet

I shall say it again, when the sports desk has a credible boss and not that hysterical man utd fan who comically and shamelessly used his position to weep and moan to every media outlet going about utd's plight i shall click and buy.
Stuart seems a nice fella but after that Steve bates meltdown i can't be bothered with their opinions.

i don't mind him being a red, i do mind the fact my 6y nephew has more composure after 3 bags of skittles than Mr Bates though.

You would have thought after the empty seats story the editors would be doing their job and not letting things like this slip through. I don't think there is any intent in showing the salary in the photo I just think it is shoddy editing. Brennan points to the original article showing pictures of City players and their salary (as the source of the original photo) but why are the MUEN discussing this in the first place if only to expose our huge wage bill - where is the counter balance showing what United or other clubs are paying out?
