Re: so this agenda thing.

But according to the media when Sheik Monsour bought us they all said "you can not buy success". The snidey put downs change to suit their agenda.

Exactly my point.

Sheik M. via ADUG has shown them how to put a business plan together that disproves their long held view that you mention.

Perhaps if they ignore us we will go away ?
It certainly helps them with their circulation figures if they pander to the majority of their readership/ viewers.

Re: so this agenda thing.

If we finish first or second this season,as seems likely, our record in the last 5 seasons will be 3rd, 1st, 2nd, 1st and 1st /2nd. The media do not give us the respect or credit our record deserves.

they simply dare not. if the media told it how it is there would be million of rag remotes switch channel, clicks would dry up and papers would lose circlation.
i like they have to lie. it means we are good, very good.

I switched the BBC early evening news on yesterday and caught their sports section. They showed the Chelsea goals and a couple of other incidents and they showed the goals and a couple of other incidents from the rags' game. In between they showed about 15 seconds of a snowstorm at the Hawthorns with no match action whatsoever. Now why would that be I wonder?

Surely you're not suggesting that people are putting stuff out on the Internet for the sole purpose of generating the maximum amount of hits possible on their website, irrespective of how ridiculous the content might be?

That's almost too far fetched for me to be able to take in.
