Yep, but have you read our main forum ? And we've won a cup already, and are still in with a chance of CL, and remote one of the PL, so best we be careful who we call fickle really :)

Beat me to it.

Last night as he started his programme, Collymore referred to 'Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams' three times in as many minutes.

In this world of advertising, product placement, brown envelopes, clicks on websites etc, am I being a cynic in thinking he might get a drop for mentioning them so often.

And why does no one in the media ever mention the long time nickname of the Rags, even in a historical way something like rags to riches? Or dare I say the antics of Louis Edwards.

Both would be of more interest than the crap page fillers currently used.

Because telling it how it is and not sugar coating the antics of that club in trafford in their past damages the 'romance' and belief that they are above everyone else as a football club.

Apart from being a thick cnut - Collymore is also a " media whore " , which explains everything !

The media don't f*cking know the reason for the nickname - world domination didn't start until 1992 - did it ?

Nice to see there will be no action against these muppets for the Hillsboro chanting at Anfield last week. The reason why? Because the UEFA referee never included it in his report.... but he did include "you're not incredible", at Porto... beggars belief!

Not really - corrupt is possibly the word you were searching for ?

This highly selective action and the way things are reported or not really pees me off especially when we get painted as moaners when we bring these things up.

All I want is fairness - why is that so difficult for them?

They will all have their seat counting pencils out tomorrow but no mention of Chelsea's crowd against PSG or the rags against Midgetland. This pic used in an article about tomorrow's match was taken at half time in a reserve match. Iit is a disgusting piece of deception to give ammo to the rags and others.

Totally understand your gripe, but the " media " have 659 million lemmings which need to be fed regularly !

Flicking through the TV channels last night............The Force Manchester about scuffers in Gods own city, and which ground is featured in the opening credits ? Correct, a cycle rack in Trafford.

I know but do lemmings live on a diet of lies?


That pic came from the Daily Telegraph a one time serious paper whose sports section now resembles a cross between the Mail Online and a rag website.
