What are City playing at?

[dannybcity]

The Mirror are socialists, they want everything flattened out on a level playing field and they despise people who have money. Hence their anti-City vitriol.

Let e'm write/say what they want. As Oscar Wilde said "They only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about."

Balls to the lot of of em.

The problem is until we win something or really look the business after 15 to 20 games they'll just love to right about us moaning at the press for these articles. As much as it annoys me with these slagging write ups about us I feel we have to bite the bullet get our heads down and just keep winning games, until the tide turns or a bigger story comes along like Liverpool going into meltdown we will keep getting these write up about us

Henry Winter is a ****. Just because he can write great prose, does not make him a friend of ours.

I'd be interested to hear what City think of him after he hijacked Mancini's unveil conference?

a bunch of fucking whips running our media

 

[davymcfc]

if we finish in the top 3 this season we will soon start to shut these cUnts up.

But he was only one defending us on Supplement. Custis- now there's a ****.

There now has to be some serious questions asked about the media/PR team at City.

We are continually having our pants pulled down by large sections of the written press and certain columinsts.

If some of this was happening to United, they would be down on it like a ton of bricks with banning orders.

The majority of local hacks are given a soft ride because in the main, they toe the line and know we are their bread and butter.

Admittedly, most of the anti-City agenda, they have no influence over.

However, it's time Vicki Kloss and whoeve,r start to apply serious leverage to City's availability.

It is the only avenue open to us in terms starting to clamp down.

I have read some articles today which are BEYOND BELIEF.

We've got Michael Calvin's Sunday Mirror piece hacking us to bits (AGAIN).

No real thread, just a variety of well-worn accusations, albeit casting our owners as The Muppets. He finishes with the all-out attack by saying the world must hope we fail.

Andy Dunn in News of The World - Cash crazy players, Balotelli's avarice.

And my personal favourite. The Sunday Star (Yeah, I know) Ray Ansbro Sports' Editor column.

For those of you who won't know, he is a huge United fan. This aside, to compare City to the Nazi's and their Blitzkrieg tactics is just unbelievable.

I do not agree, and cannot believe for a second, that all publicity, is good publicity.

Stop throwing the doors open, the patch journos will have nothing to write. The desk agendas will continue in spite.

Stop trying to be friends, it is getting us nowhere.

At the very least, why aren't these bastard sports' editors being dragged up here on luncheon?

It's no use giving stuff off the record to keep people sweet, making players available for interview, if the unpalatable result stays the same.

Start hitting them in the pocket.

Can I just add, the Sunday Star also has a spread by someone called Ben Fairthorne.

An interview with Buffon. Where the hell does this stuff come from?

I really can't believe someone actually go out of their way to ask him, 'So Gigi, Man City's defenders, not one of them would get in a top team'...?

Cue another knocking job...

Best get your tin hat on mate... you are going to be accused of being paranoid!
