I have not bought a paper for years now but when I go to see my mother on a Sunday she always has The Fail, The Mirror & The Star. These three papers all have a clear pro Rag/anti City theme running throughout their sports pages, as I believe their 'sports journalist's' cater for the hordes of armchair rags who have bought their paper over the last twenty years whilst they have become successful. During that time, up until about 18 months to 2 years ago City had always been a mediocre to sh*t team/comedy club, to a sh*t to mediocre team with a load of money but would still f*ck it up anyway type of club. Ever since we beat the scum in the semi final & went on to win (cos typical City would see us lose in the final anyway) they suddenly realised Mancini might be the man to take us to the next level, (even though they had been reassuring their rag hordes that he was not) and with the plans to our academy announced maybe the good Sheikh would not get bored after all (even though they had been reassurring their rag hordes he would) and it was then their 'reporting' turned to utter desperation & bile.
Just remember the last day of last season when pretty much the whole of the football community apart from 'nited fans' celebrated with us, certain media outlets like these conveniently forgot to mention the utter capitulation of 'their' team, whilst begrudgly offering congratulations to us and at the same time letting their readers know at every turn how much money it had cost to achieve this. Newspapers like these realise that we now demand far more column inches than we ever did before and are trashing us in any way they can to appease the rag plastics who are probably the amongst the last people to stop buying papers, probably based on the w*nkfests over the rags winning during previous years.
Let them do what they want because it is changing f*ck all really and the only thing it is doing is increasing our exposure to the point where we are turning over real big money (almost a quarter of a billion pounds) and they are sh*tting it even more now.
Believe me, after supporting City for 35 years is it far better to be talked about than not talked about or as some kind of piss take club.
Forgive them for they are ar*eholes and know not what they do.
