I know where you're coming from (as in we're not the only big-spenders in football) but those (admittedly, I'll-advised) fivers were published on the official website. It's our own look out if others use them as a stick to beat us, now.

I have no issue with the pic, I should have mentioned the link led to a page that hardly mentioned city. Plus it was strange why they deleted it.
 
What's best -

Divert our attention from continuing to get on with the job, and argue the toss with the media, getting into a slanging match / court cases / and a tonne of bad seriously bad PR from the people we are arguing with...

or

Accept we will get plenty of crap comments, but carry on executing the plan, smiling as we do it?


Answer is obvious. We just get on with it, and let them be distracted by us, not the other way around.

The Saturday before Barca away, game moved to a late KO, the game after Barca away moved to an early KO, not very helpful.

coincidence mate.


as fucking if !!

So now the premier league BT and Sky have done this to ensure we don't win anything? You really need to go to Area 51 where you may well meet David Icke!
A media bias is undeniable but why would it be? There is no divine right for journalists to be biased or not. Look at newspapers political views: Not based in fact but based on preconception. Nobody seems to have a problem there. Why would newspapers/media not be pro Manure? Biggest club in England, if not Europe, if not the world. Pro rags is not anti City. It's just a 'victim mentality' that prevails amongst many posters on here.
Good example is the following scenario; Last game of the season, Southampton win and City finish 2nd, meaning rags finish 5th or, City win and win title but rags finish 3rd or 4th. Which would you choose? Sadly, many would take option 1!! Makes us look small time and petty. In fact, not dissimilar to assuming there is an agenda against all things City. Catch yourself on. If we're good enough we'll win stuff and if we are not quite good enough, we won't.

How exactly do you know many would take option 1, have you factual data or done a survey or are you basing your views on a handful of posters on a football forum?

I agree to an extent but with the exception of idiots like lipton on the press pass on Sunday morning. He kept referring to us as liers over the lampard deal and even the presenter told him to stop using that word. We should have gone in with a threat of slander and demanded an apology. But nothing happened as usual. I don't mind bias towards united, chelsea etc. I find it quite funny, but slander is another issue
