Those of a tendency to hate talkSPORT

[Mr Partridge]

But I did hear Adrian Durham say last week he was reading Lakey's new book. Are we his second team?

Apparently, if we've been his second team since before the money came in, then he must be particularly perverted. If not then he's glory hunting ginger ****.
The idea of having a second team is pretty alien to me.

At least he would have stuck up for us had he not been on holiday. Does talk bollocks at times but has a tendency to talk a lot of sense too, and is the only one on that station who isn't jealous of us. Probably because he supports a team who are way below us and we will never be a threat to.

Totally agree.

My 2nd team is City reserves.

And that's it!

I have a soft spot for Brentford.

Don't we all?

I'm working on a contract at the moment with little else to do meantime but the radio! So I'm stuck with this. I know I shouldn't take any notice, but I felt compelled to write, makes me feel a lot better:


Dear Talksport editors

We City fans don’t mind honest criticism. What gets us is the extreme ignorance of the presenters, almost without exception, about all things City. There is no-one that FOLLOWS the club at all, so they don’t get the information they do about their favourites, like Spurs and especially Chelsea. The most guilty are Cundy and Alvin Martin last night, but also the 2 clowns before them, and Micky Quinn. Alan Brazil is quite balanced strangely.

After years of saying we wont get any players, we’ll never get top 4 etc etc, we are now at a position, in quite a short time, to challenge for the league.

Wages
They completely make things up. Cundy was babbling about £90M package yesterday. When Adebayor signed they were outraged at 125 grand a week, now they have upped that to 175, strangely. Random.

Team Spirit
It is blindingly obvious that players who are detrimental have been moved aside, and also obvious to any observers that the team had a great spirit in the last 3 months. Yet these idiots keep shouting ‘no team spirit’. They hope.

Don’t like the way Mancini plays
Another classic. Based wholly on a 0-0 away at Arsenal. How many of them watched the demolitions of Fulham (away) or Sunderland? How many remember some of the sublime moves the team made last season. Totally discounted.

Chelsea way ahead
No-one at Talksport seems to know that City and Chelsea finished equal on points. Cundy keeps babbling about how far ahead ‘Chelsea and Man Utd are’. It is obvious to anyone but a complete idiot that City are improving year on year, but these fools just keep saying we’ll be fighting for 4th or something. They are just hoping against hope.


Robinho
Cundy – “they bought Robinho to win them the league”
Quinn – last week – “they’ve still got Robinho even”
Both statements idiotic

Adebayor etc
The players that have been moved aside are constantly screamed about as a reason why we cant win the league. What on earth have Bellamy, Adebayor, Santa Cruz and Bridge got to do with the first team squad? Nothing. None of them will know that Jo, Caicedo, Trippoer, Mee, Johnson M and Boateng have already been moved out this summer, with more to follow. Ignorance.

None of their players will get in the other top teams
Definitely the daftest of their statements. The other way round in fact. Apart from Rooney who would get in City’s team? And don’t get me started on Chelsea pensioners. They are totally ignorant – until reminded – of David Silva and Vincent Kompany, two of the league’s best players, by a long way. Then there’s Hart, Richards, De Jong, Tevez, Aguero.

Dzeko
Flopped I keep hearing. But he didn’t start many games. And yet he scored vital goals to get us to the FA cup final, and a couple of key ones in the league TO GET US EQUAL TO CHELSEA. He will come back and bite these presenters bigtime this season.

Adam Johnson
“Poor Adam Johnson cant get a game, it’s bad for England” etc etc. Has anyone watched him apart from the odd goal flash? Poor player going backward who gives the ball away. Allegedly likes the pop and is now 24, not a ‘young prospect’. I will drive him to Chelsea myself Jason, put him in your team!

So for goodness sake get some presenters with a bit of balance, or get them to read up a bit, so they stop talking out of their collective arse!

Best regards

John, St Austell CITY FAN!

Good letter John, I enjoy your letters on Sky as well.

 

[BackofJeanette]

I know! I know!

Got in the car at 5 to 10 last night, think it was Saggers and Mark Ashton?

Been debating fees wages etc, last caller, Utd fan (obligatory southern accent), going on a out the 'Arab' and 'Russian' money. How it's NOT fair, Utd won everything fair and square, blah blah blah!
Then the killer line;

These 'foreign' owners should be taxed more to prevent them investing that much money!

Oh so yanks aren't 'foreign' then?

Best was Saggers says 'brilliant call'


Oh yeah! Nearly forgot,

The 'Sky money' was different, this was paid to the successful clubs who would draw the crowds, or some such shit!

???????

Thank you. Seems I'm just a full time City-promoter! But all the ill-informed bias does annoy me.

In a way it's our fault because we've had so few famous players the last 30 years that the media is full of Scum, Dippers, Arsenal and Chelsea shite. But it is changing. Amazing how many people now feel we are the main contenders now.

I heard that call.
Typical Rag arsehole, Paul from Kent or somewhere. He sounded like he was about to burst into tears at anytime!
He came out with the same old bullshit we've heard a million times now - Arab and Russian money have ruined football - driving wages through the roof. Basically he was just having a pop at us and Chelski - completely ignoring the fact that the Rags and Dippers paid the highest wages throughout the 80's and 90's and nobody could compete with them.
As for Saggers, that cnut hates us for some reason!

True, I actually like listening to Durham (f*ck me, did I really say that) I think he's the best one on there by far, on the rare occasion he has a go if someone comes on and goes too far he'll often pull them up even if it's detrimental to the case he's trying to make.

Darren Gough though ? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, stick to cricket Tubby !
