Last week in the Mail in the wake of Arsenal beating Real 3-0 there was a table listing Real's biggest defeats at the hands of English clubs. The journalistic fact checking was thorough enough to have taken note of Derby beating them 4-1 in 1975 but, you guessed it, they failed to remember our famous victory against Madrid all those years ago in 2023.This snippet from the Guardian actually perfectly encapsulates the way City are reported on in most of the media.
A wholly gratuitous dig at City fans, followed by something that promotes both United and their fans, and yet the truth is the thing they are praising United for, we significantly exceed, which underlines the modern affliction of appalling lack of journalistic fact checking, despite being penned in the age of the internet. Hard pressed ffs. Embarrassing fucking ****.
