It's natural to support the underdog if they aren't your team isn't it? I know commentary should be impartial but sometimes I think we take offence too easily.
That's the thing though, it should be impartial but it rarely is with us.

Somebody should start up a petition to remove this eejit from the hall of fame. Big fucking jackass!I loved Niall Quinn, he was a shinning light through an otherwise tough time for us. Then he turned pundit, for the most part he was one of us when the rest were rag/scouse biased arseholes. The support, enthusiasm and sheer joy he spewed when we won our first premiership was magnificent, he was literally crying with joy but suddenly over the last few years there's been a change, a seismic shift and there must be a reason why. He was recently instrumental in the Aguero witch hunt and I was angry about that but Wednesday night has destroyed any respect I ever had for him. We are up against so much bias on BT Sports but to see his latest display on Sky against Celtic was the last straw for me. Niall, any legacy you had has now been lost in my world. City hall of fame to now hall of shame. Sad, very sad!

But there no agenda.Can remember the bias it was ridiculous, it was as though Celtic were playing Real Madrid and were representing the UK or something. I can understand the David vs Goliath sort of thing but it was an English club against a Scottish club and they were routing for the Scots... All it was all night was I hope Celtic can keep the tempo, hope they can keep the lead etc etc. If it had been Liverpool or United it would of been very different I'm sure!
We get bog all credit, even at half time the only analysis was about how good Celtic were defensively and how bad we were defensively yet they had conceded just as many as we had. Sterlings brilliance throughout the game got no coverage except for his own goal. It was his best performance in a city shirt for me, he was completely unplayable at times yet all we heard was how good these cloggers were at running about.
If the English media are building up the Scots more in a game than the best English player in football at the moment is it any wonder England play so shit at international level.
I've just seen a picture of Camel Gob sporting a beard! I can't believe that he hadn't noticed that it only emphasises his deformed mouth. Proper lol.
I just can't see the media changing in the near future even if we win the CL with 11 local Manchester lads they would find a way to play it down.

Everton are far worse in my experience.The scousers (either colour) haven't been able to handle to losing their players to little city. It makes their history bollucks they came out with a complete joke and the bitterness stems from there
No it fecking was not, good build up play possibly but the goal was deflected.It was a good goal. There's more to it than the shot. The move was very slick and looked dangerous from the start.
Agree about how distrespectful that ad is to Stoke though. It's disgusting. I really think BT don't have a clue about the sport.

Many Red Dippers are JCL's and don't understand the hatred the Old School have for us.
As I type this I'm actually in our Liverpool location.Remember the hatred directed at us for pilfering lescott? Refreshes the hatred. As for the red ones it must of been awful to think that's raheem sterling doesn't care where kenny dalgleish played and has never heard of Istanbul
The best was it's a very even game and then the chances came up about 17 to City and 8 to Celtic, cue silence.
The worst I saw was an advert with Pogba 6, Ibrahimavich 9, Rooney 10, De Gea 1 etc. I thought it was an advert for their Europa game, but no it was for the prem game against Stoke, with Stoke one and only mention being the word Stoke.
I thought that was disrespectful to Stoke and Stoke fans who pay for BT.
I can put up with the facial deformation. It's the catastrophe that's between his ears that annoys me most.
