I've always found SSN slightly too all-American showbiz, grand-slam Sunday over-hype, but I always thought we got our fair share of the limelight & probably as higher profile as the "big 4".
Then, this morning I compared the reporting of last nights American defeats suffered by us and the Rags. Both the same scoreline, both against MLS teams and both meaningless pre-season PR run-outs.
"City, with a team including Adebayor, Jo (dont make me laugh) & Wayne Bridge (reserve left back) suffered an embarrassing defeat to NYRB".."will Mancini need to get his cheque book out again"..."slumped to their second defeat on the bounce"
No mention of who was missing, no mention of no new signings playing, no mention of a starting 11 made up of fringe & academy players!
They didn't feel the need to mention who was in the starting 11 for the Rags. No snide mentions of "United, with a team including Nani, Scholes, Giggs, Berbaflop, Evans, Gibson et al", they were just unlucky (against 10 men)!
So, in conclusion, you're all correct..
..bunch of Rag loving, anti-City tossers who I wouldn't piss on if they were on fire.
Thank you.
Add to that, the fact we pulled the biggest transfer off of the summer so far (David Silva) where we got a glimpse of him walking after his medical yet we had 3 days of Liverpool signing Joe Cole on a free! HOW?
Also Kolarov has scored some screamers for Lazio yet he signs for us and SSN show him spooning a free-kick and getting sent off.
Rant Over
....but it does go on and on - small bits of bias - to massive..
Today they are talking about Torres and him possibly leaving the scouse - they show a goal he scores - and from the many fantastic goals he has scored - real belters - which one to they show.... you guessed a straightforward header against us
