Re: Sunday Supplement 14/15 Thread

I've been saying the same thing for years (same with Talksport). If a programme annoys you so much, why do you continue to watch/listen to it? It's baffling.

Never really understood that line of thinking. Surely as City fans we want to read and hear what people not are saying about the club. Surely its of interest to all of us how our club is represented.

That's just it though. Read this thread. A lot of people on here don't want to read/watch/listen when City are being criticized. So why do people moan like fuck when we are slagged off, yet till tune in to the same programme the following day/week/whenever? I think your point is that it's all about opinions, and I agree 100% with you. They're perfectly entitled to slag City off if they want (libel laws permitting), and I've never had a problem with that. Free speech, and all that. My argument, which you seem to miss/ignore is simply, why would anyone regularly watch/listen to a programme that they don't like? If I don't like a programme, whatever it's about (comedy, music, current affairs, sport, whatever), I simply don't watch it.

Re: Sunday Supplement 14/15 Thread

I generally dont watch this show as it winds me up, but thought i'd give it a go today, it wasnt that bad, Lipton went off on one about Lampard, but i thought most of what they said was right, didnt really slag off the signing of Bony, even saying that we have until June to balance things up so cant say we are failing now. Agreed that our and Chelsea's model is better than the Glazer model for football, FFP is designed to prevent others from challenging the status quo. I'm sure other will disagree with me, but after Maureen's moaning i expected Barkley to be kissing his ring as usual and he was quite balanced about things. Full on agendaists will no doubt be donning their tin foil hats and will disagree with me.

Agree wasn't that bad.. I think the Lampard situation by City was to protect Lampard

Re: Sunday Supplement 14/15 Thread

I like the show and I'm an avid watcher. Some of the journos are worse than others but ultimately they all give an honest opinion - it's their opinion - which may (or may not) be what we want to hear.

The quote by Lipton just now basically sums up what this show is all about:

"The Industry is based on gossip & tittle-tattle!"

Harry, the perceived media darling, is getting a bit of a kicking here.....[/quote
Everyone is entitled to an opinion like you say but these don't know the facts,yet talk like it's gospel for all to hear.That's why I can't watch this utter pile of crap !

Patrick Barclay thinks FUFP is a good thing & blames the free market for cementing the status quo. Under free market rules somebody can buy into a business & invest all the money he wants to make it grow bigger & stronger & be competitive. This bellend contradicts himself & doesn't realise he's doing it.

I think Barkley should stick to playing for Everton.

Patrick Barclay is often on this prog though.

I ignore your argument because I don't agree with it. I want to know what people are saying and writing about my club. If I refuse to read or watch anything because I might not like it I won't know what is being said. But others will and will base their opinions of my club on that.

I don't actually watch SS but I like to read the threads in here so I know which journos talk shite about us, which accusations are being made about the club and which myths are likely to be repeated to me by other supporters.

Why do you consistently open sunday supplement threads when your only contribution seems to be to moan about why people are watching the show?

And why do you only seem to have a pop at me about it, when De Niro said the same thing? Indeed, when you quoted me earlier, you edited out his comment. Why, if you're not simply having a pop at me? Serious question.

It's interesting some of you chaps think that defamation of our club on national TV "isn't that bad"

here is the slander, City lawyers please note
