Time to ban the media from Carrington?

No!

These things happen and i want them to be out there and us being slagged off about them. You might think "why you daft sod?" but the reason why is because when we start to really become a good team, playing really good football and actually start winning trophies it will make it all the more sweeter because all along the way the media will have tried their very VERY best to destablise us - but it wont have worked!

Their stories would have to be "dispite all the trouble they've had along the way, Manchester City FC have risen above the kock-backs and become a real top club!"
Unfortunately most of the British public believe the trash and lies that they print and it does effect our club. If you think they are going to change the agenda once we become successful you are deluded.

The main culprit is the MUEN which is now owned by the rag mirror. Pictures of both incidents were taken by them. Before they were taken over they were more careful not to try and upset the blue fan base as they knew we were their bread and butter. Build a fence and starve them of the publicity and boycott the paper.
Are you listening to this mania Dougie?! They'll want a fence round Kinder Scout next.
Here's some good news though

This is part of the reason the club wnat to move the training complex to the Ashton New Road site. But according to Bernard Halford last night it will take about 4 years.

I dont agree at all. The owners bought our club hoping the positive image from a leading Premier League club would reflect well on their name. City as a club needs to use whatever means it can to influence the media so it portrays the club in a positive light. We will have a tough job currently large sections of the media are against us. However we must act! Do you think United just let bad stories come out against their club? The owners want MCFC to be a highly regarded world brand that enhances their image.

You are a purveyor of mania, Dougie sits astride his steps to provide us with daily training reports from outside the fence and the fencing of Kinder Scout is the logical extension of your suggestion that views from public footpaths should be screened off.
 
who gives a sh*te what the press are stiring, they have to resort to silly bust-ups which mean nothing because they have nothing else on us. let em get on with it, if its not trg ground bust-ups it will be something else they make up.

Are you a journalist by any chance as you are very good at fabricating things. You dont even know me and I couldnt give a shit about Kinder scout. I am talking about Carrington and City. If its a choice of Dougie sitting outside and the media being allowed to carry on with the relentless agenda helped by the view, then we build a fence and perhaps city may allow dougie to sit inside the fence!

The bad publicity is damaging the club. I dont think it is necessarily the MEN. If you look at the amount of interest generated by "minor scuffles" any paparazzi photographer can sell his pics for a lot of money. The owners must be displeased with this. Even if we have to erect an independent privacy screen within our boundary imo it should be done as a matter of urgency.

In what way is it damaging the club? I've heard two pundits already come out since this broke yesterday and say "this sort of thing happens every week at a club somewhere around the country, it's only because it's City that it has become big news!". Is it stopping us progressing up the league? Is it going to stop us signing Dzeko or anyone else who comes? Is it going to stop the developments in and around the stadium and further around the Manchester area that we have all seen in the Vegas thread?

As i've said, i welcome anyone to slag us off because when we become a real team and a proper top club what can they say about us then? Plus any bad press we get may keep away the unwanted bandwagon jumpers and leave us with SUPPORTERS of the club, not people who are here because they've seen the "City dream" pasted all over the newspapers!

The club needs to control what is coming out. This is not just paparazzi photos but interviews with players and officials etc. Forces are trying to undermine our club. We need to take action on a variety of levels.
If as a consequence that means no more reports from Dougie's ladder then so be it!
