So there won't be anything about the rags v spuds on the back page next Tuesday, then.
It will be something about a City squad member.
Let's wait and see if you're right before you start calling people paranoid.

Every team's fans think the media is biased against them. Ours are no different. Do you not think all our rivals will think the media loves us, after all the columnists have been raving over Aguero the past few days? The rags think the media hate them, and probably think they love us because were "challengers to their throne".
How about we try and be different? How about we become the set of fans who DON'T think the media hates us? Sounds absurd, I know. But let's try it for a short while, hey?

I doubt the sports editors of other regional papers covering two main clubs oversaw a cull of journalists in which one of those clubs was left with no representation on the sports desk.
Fletcher did so.

I'm not sure I believe what I've been told....

What was the back page feature in the MUEN last night?

The format has now changed. Ref sports back page, used for early previous days news ie "Fletch is back" and the 10 pages centre pullout is now devoted to late previous days news with 4 pages on Citys win and other related news.Other 6 pages ref Rags and other local teams,cricket etc.
Don`t be mislead by some of the anti MEN tossers on this forum,who never read it but take "advice" from ill advised non readers !!

The MUEN has been taking the piss out of city since at least the early 90's. Back when I used to deliver the fucking thing on a paper round.

Just to make a point or two here.
The reason City were not on the back page, as Oakiecokie has pointed out, is that the later sports news now goes on the pull-out, so City were on the cover of the pull-out and three pages inside.
The very same happened to United on Monday - they won their opening game and the back page story was Micah Richards talking about City.
With tight deadlines for evening games, these kind of things have to be done.
To answer the last point, the only person "culled" in the last round of redundancies was a Red.
Chris Bailey left voluntarily to work for City.
At a quick tot-up, that means there are now five Reds and five Blues on a 13-man sports desk covering the MEN and the weekly papers.
Just for the record, the main moderator on our website is also a Blue.
Just try taking a step back and put things in context sometimes.
There is no anti-City agenda at the MEN - we would have to be commercially suicidal to do so.
United fans call us the Manchester Evening Blues, as they only see the stuff they regard as being anti-United and ignore all the positive stuff.

I'm paranoid because I enjoy being paranoid, it keeps me on edge I'm like a coiled spring from morning till night ready to pounce on anyone who calls my beloved club, but their is one thing that bewilders me, I never hear city the club call anyone or complain?

By the way,how difficult is it for you to write positve stuff (most of the time) about the Blues when you are a Red.Must hurt surely. ;)<br /><br />-- Wed Aug 17, 2011 5:00 pm --<br /><br />

How about when city was in the first and second division and your newspaper gave us sod all coverage. When I say sod all coverage I mean literally half the time you didn't even bother putting in any kind of match report. Then when you did half the time its was a column an inch across by at most 3 or 4 inches long.

Now don't try and deny it I was a skint teen back then when that happened. There was no bloody internet either so the main ways I had to follow what was going on back then was either read the MUEN or if I was lucky listen to the match on magic 1152 (I'll always love magic 1152 because of that).

As for the highlighted that would be why you have to give away your paper now because you've been shitting on city fans for the last 20 years. So no one wants to read your crap any more.
