BT Sport this morning (there's something sweet about our trophy being paraded at Old Trafford):

Exactly, it would have been mental on here! Sky sports news at 10am then focused on managers who won the league in their first season - Mourinho, Ancelotti and of course, pellegrini. I wonder if united fans are accusing Sky of setting van Gaal up to fail with that, because you can bet your house that if this time last year that same clip was shown in focus on pellegrini's first season, many on here would accuse them of exactly that.KippaxCitizen said:I think they actually did have sky ribbons on a couple of years ago.Pigeonho said:Indeed they do. I just watched a Sun Sport on Sunday ad for tomorrow's papers, with part of the ad showing 2 united fans crying in the car, with a load of city fans walking past, obviously celebrating another derby win.KippaxCitizen said:People just finding things to get pissed off about and completely ignoring things like this, for a change.
As for the posts re the PL trophy, it's usually red and navy blue throughout the season - Sky's colours.
Anyway, over the Summer BT and Sky had billboards with us celebrating goals, one with Suarez looking gutted in the background, one with us lifting the Prem trophy...when in years gone by they have had images of a player from all the top teams, even with United as champions. If that was the case this Summer we'd have people on here saying "are we not that champions? you wouldn't know it, they're trying to hide it that's for sure!"
If we'd had the Summer of adverts that Arsenal have had there'd be uproar!
Yet - using your example - we have an advert with a United fan crying in a car with City fans celebrating outside and this place ignores it and just looks for, searches high and low, even in the depths of the shite press just to find a small derogatory remark. This week the word was "splashing" about us "splashing the cash" (yes something a trivial as this gets twenty pages on this forum) yet the advert with the United fan crying is totally ignored.
Had it been a City fan crying and United fans outside celebrating, you could all 100 pages to this thread.
Dave Ewing's Back 'eader said:BTSport sent me a missive recently. Coloured envelope with Dick van Miffy in solo mode scoring the GotS. Inside the cover of the book/pamphlet had City winning the title and then fuck all in the rest of the book. MANUre appear again with the usual culprits. Nothing changes.
I think de Niro, George Hannah et al must hear it played backwards which, to them, is broadcast as:KippaxCitizen said:On BT Sport now they've got the build up for the game on and nobody in the studio thinks United will finish in the top four, this was live on air to the nation.
On Drive Time on talkSPORT this week they've had Ray Parlour and Matt Holland both said United won't challenge for the tile, and two phone-in guests (Paddy Power and Begović) both said the same thing. All live on air to the nation.

There are lies damn lies and Guardian articles. The line that did it for me "Asked if Touré may be one, the manager would not be drawn. “We will see in the next days,” he said, though it is understood that Pellegrini was referring to Dzeko and not Touré."
