BBC team of the season so far. What a joke ! I know it’s based on fan votes but shame on the BBC for even considering giving it coverage.

Safe to say the vast majority who take notice of and vote on the BBC website are from the South East.

At least it gives those fans something to celebrate - little victories and all that.

It's not that exactly, it's because our player ratings on the BBC are always marked down by the hoards of armchair dwelling red shite followers, both scouse and manc.

I also vote on this - just to try to balance the red shite I go through their games giving scores of 1 to all their players. Perhaps we need more doing it - or am I just wasting my time... :?:

Anything voted on by fans is pointless.
It is a numbers game, fans are biased, players from clubs with the biggest fan bases 'win'.
Keeps the clicks rolling in so media are happy out.

Just a complete waste of time if you want objectivity.

Wtf!! should the current owners be accountable for past ownership mishap?

I feel for the victims, however this cunt is using their misfortune to bash city. Just when you thought this cunt can't sink any lower

The victims knew it was a possibility they’d have to see the horrible cunt, so it’s on them for trying to make money from a rich club just because we once employed someone. The whole thing makes no sense and I’m not sure why it even went to court as he wasn’t employed by City during the period they were abused.

They saw a potential payout and saw the pound signs. Most probably egged on by the solicitors and other hangers on, also sniffing a payday. They got what they deserved, which was nothing

They were after a payday. Out of court £ would have been a win. Disgusting what happened, however they should be ashamed of themselves.

Just about sums it up. Yes terrible things happened and the kiddy fiddler is banged up and hopefully getting a few pastings but his actions are not on us and the solicitors knew this and were chancing their arms on us caving to avoid a publicity scandal which we rightly did not do so yes, shame on the law firms

I do it all the time. Razzer always gets one of the lowest scores as the Dippers/Rags et al love marking him down in games, same with all our players. Therefore, I always give them a shit score, even if they were a star player.

I don’t mind giving the BBC their clicks in this case, just a bit of fun and makes me chuckle.

Cynical to say that they were just out for $$.

Victims of these crimes usually just want justice and for the truth to come out.

They got that in the first case. He’s behind bars now. This particular case was against City, not Bennell. It was 100% for money.

And apparently they refused to take part in the compensation scheme city immediately set up (which was deemed to be fair) as obviously these lawyers told them they could get them more.

Anyone that thinks this is not about money need to give themselves a slap around the face...for an hour!!....its 100% about trying to fleece City out of millions for a fucking crime they didn't commit....anyone with even half a brain knows this.

Sometimes I wish the 'do gooders' took over a business and were sued for something the last owners were supposedly guilty of....id love to see their attitudes then.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"
