Vinnie's Goal v Leicester.BBC 5 Live.

[Shaelumstash]

I’d expect someone working for a public service broadcaster to be able to maintain some impartiality. If she wants to bum her dad and Liverpool so much she should go and work for a shit rag like the Liverpool Echo.

If that’s not clear enough for you, mugs like me and you pay this imbeciles wage to cry when City score a goal.

It’s clear as day yet sad to see that the BBC isn’t fit for purpose any more and it’s because they employ clowns like this with no integrity. And then you have clowns defending it, as you are here.

If the BBC want to act as United and Liverpool’s official fanzines - drop the license fee.

Fuck me, there’s plenty to be pissed off about in the world, today especially! But Kelly Cates supporting the team her dad was a legend as player and manager for is not one of them.

Trevor Sinclair and Micah Richards work for the BBC, do you expect them to be buzzing their tits off if United or Liverpool beat City? All in the name of BBC impartiality?!

Of course not. They’re human beings. Same as Kelly Cates.

She’s a decent broadcaster and seems like a decent person, there a plenty of people at the beeb to be pissed off at over her.

It’s completely unrealistic to expect every single member of the BBC sports team to have absolutely no affiliation to any football club.

Have you heard the way this woman talks about City in general? She is insidious, as are most of those scouse cult members. Trevor Sinclair and Micah Richards aren’t really arsed, and don’t have as prominent a role.

But I’d rather the BBC used our money to employ people that can analyse the game well and can educate the public, rather than gormless former players and in this case, family members. I really don’t need to hear Alan Shearer’s anecdotes about back when he was a player when he used to get ice baths with Kevin Keegan or whatever inane drivel they come out with.

I agree completely, you shouldn't ever take emotion away from life, just because it's your job. Listen to The Goat, or even Joleon (who is a brummy), they'd likely get upset in the same circumstances.

Thanks Vinny :)

Shearer’s a diabolical pundit, I give you that.

Dan Roan and Simon Stone are diabolical “journalists” Stone’s clearly a dyed in the wool red, and Roan clearly has a personal axe to grind against City. I do think it’s appalling that they’re the main reporters on City.

But I disagree with you on Sinclair and Richards. They’re both very pro City and regularly sing our praises and defend us. They’re not Paddy Crerrand level biased and try to be fair.

And Kelly Cates isn’t there as a pundit, but as a presenter. She’s very capable, comes across as polite, articulate and fair to me. But to expect her not to be a Liverpool fan deep down is just unrealistic imo.

Fair post

Yep!

Huge excitement in the build up as to the repercussions of us losing before the result comes in at 3:10. The build up really makes it though so watch the first 3 minutes lol.

I had talk sport on amd prior to the result it was all "what will be the repercussions of City losing? Then the result is announced and all they could say was had City lost these would have been the repercussions - and just repeated themselves!

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Worth it for the look on Kelly Dalglish’s face.

I watched the last game v Brighton in a pub and the TV next to the City game had Liverpool v Wolves with the sound off.

When Brighton scored the camera at Anfield zoomed into the Kop who were all cheering and one dick even wore a Brighton shirt. Then the camera zoomed in on King Kenny..... Grinning as wide as a Cheshire cat, texting somebody on his phone....
I looked away and back at the City game 3 seconds before Aguero equalised. Beautiful.

the goal unexpectedly popped up on my telly late one night last week and looked better than the first time around.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

in all honesty, it's the last truly great moment in football. Swansong to the golden era.

 

[FrankSwift1]

Wonderful goal and wonderful moment. Pretty much the whole country apart from Liverpool fans wanted us to win as well.

However I cant quite get people moaning about Dalglish daughter. Its a bit like in 20 years Liverpool fans moaning that Vinny's daughter doesn't look happy if they score an important goal and we are challenging them for the title.
