Don’t let it bother you this is shit UK today . UK is run by narrative and populism.

By the time the rag/dipper media outlets have stopped rimming their beloved teams and woken up to the realisation they aren't good or consistent enough to win the PL, we will be miles in front smoking a cigar and supping brandy getting the sideboard ready for a few more pots

Another part of the ‘Strange season’. We hardly got a mention earlier in the season and I mentioned that we seem to be being ignored by the media. Then we had stories of ‘The beginning of the demise of City’ where they just decided we would now fade away into obscurity thus leaving their Rag loving authors just to concentrate on the chosen few. But then the climb, the demise was shown to be conceived by said Rag lovers and the decent into obscurity was too short lived, for them anyway.

At that point you’d think we’d get plenty of decent articles but it turned out to be the opposite. Yes, they written up the match but that was about it. The lowest point for me, which did make me smile also, was when we beat the Rags in the cup and the big uproar about how we celebrated while people were dying. Nobody cared until then as it’s part of the game and what was bringing a bit of joy to the world. After all, how many protocols had been put in place for COVID but none of them can be enforced once they cross the line.

There have been many other stories that have been printed/shown in a negative light, or our club being linked to even if it’s nowt to do with us. But the ignorance has continued as if to blank us out and allow them to peddle the myth of the ‘Best 2 clubs in the world’. That’s where the money is so that’s where the stories are. Anybody else is merely garnish.

"Is Grealish the Player of the Season"?

Oh just fuck off. He's not fit to lace Foden's boots, or Gundog's. And apart from that we're only halfway through the season. Little fucking Villa will finish mid table like they always do

They actually said on MoTD that he may be not just the player of the season in England but questioned if there was anyone better at the moment in the world........

It's getting, no sorry it has become ridiculous the amount of shot they come out with. I haven't bothered to watch it for ages, the first time I have and the reporting of the United game was appalling and then the came out with this retarded comment.
I fucking hope the hammers fuck the Scouse wankers over to just to see how they cope with having to spin it somehow

Now , Moyes has his team playing well , to be fair to Agent Moyes.

They seem to be very unlucky against Scouse , if i recall the game last January seemed to be the point where we all thought teams were rolling over for scouse2 and decisions went against Wet Spam in their Anfield loss- they did have a go. Today they can have a good go at Scouse2 . They are clearly playing with more confidence.

The season before, they drew 1 each. Milner was yards offside pretty much under the lino's nose on the touch line in the build up to their goal and in the last minute Origi was clean through and should have been flagged but wasn't. Luckily he shot straight at the keeper.... and to think, that could have cost us the league title.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Most fouled player in the league signing for the team gifted the most penalties. Match made in heaven for the Rags. First player ever to be scouted purely on his inability to stay on his feet.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

I call it the David Silva effect. His level was above any of the pundits ever achieved. The plaudits
Come as he leaves. Disgraceful. Penandes not fit to lace his boots, but plays for the scum.

I ve said it many times, I think Dave is up there with the likes of Xavi & Iniesta.
One of the best playmakers in the last 50 years in football.
And also the most underrated ever.

I don't think he was underrated, but more like ignored because of who he was playing for.

Just took a small look on "Transfer Deadline Day".
Wow, nothing happens worldwide, but still, the media is trying to sell it like it's the best ever.

Can someone please tell me why Barca are not being dragged through the fire by FFP as the way they run their club is a scandal.
Massive debt, unaforadble wages, and no one seems to be targeting them.
It makes whatever we were charged with look like peanuts, even though we did nothing wrong
It really fuckimg annoys me that the knives were out for us, but they seem to be treated as an exception and almost victims
Them and Madrid are a fucking joke and have thought they were untouchable for so long, throw them to the dogs!!
