We need to go after him now. Can’t let him keep getting away with this whilst looking like he stinks of fags and piss.

We won't though, and, these cunts know it, Like it or not this defamatory narrative actually works, you get talking to other fans, they have swallowed the state owned, dirty oil money, financial doping, cheating ffp and escaping punishment nonsense.
Yep its one of the biggest gripes I have with our owners, they have failed to defend the integrity of the club against a aggressive media campaign. They should have sued early on, they would have won, and, the likes of Jordan, Harris, Delooney, Herbert, Ladyman et al would have been silenced, fucking annoying!


Agree 100% with your sentiment, these cunts need exposing and teaching a lesson.

Reality of taking the press on may be very different though. City have zero friends in the press, zero. You only have to look at what has happened to whoever the press 'en masse' decide to turn on. So for the club to lynch one of these fuckers in court it would have to be a watertight claim of defamation or whatever.
Otherwise the press would get additional exposure to spout loads of shit and drag more bullshit stuff up to put on their front pages.
At worst it could spark a co-ordinated campaign against both the club and the owners.

So it is a real double edged sword and the other edge may be even sharper and do more damage than the fairly low level sniping we have to put up with.
I would think that the club take legal advise on every single outburst against us and when it clearly crosses a line they probably make things clear behind the scenes to publishers/ owners and the money men behind these fuckers rather than go to public court.

The press and public mouthpieces have way too much power imo, allowed to spew opinion as though it matters - as though their opinion is of any fucking value at all. All the gutter hacks that go after people they dont like and abuse the fuck out them is seriously wrong imo.
Seems a fact of life though and has very few limits despite doing real tangible harm to people they pick on, all while hiding behind the 'immunity' of the press.
All i can say is i am always really surprised that we dont see any of these twats suffer strange accidents

I heard his drivel - wish TS would just tell him to fuck off .

Trevor should ask him how much he put into the local community to lift it from the slums ,like our owners did, when he was the owner of CP .

Failed football club manager cunt .
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Lads, how do the BBC get paid for this shit reporting by Phil Dawkes:

"Atletico ended the fiery contest with 10 men when defender Felipe was shown a second yellow card for a dangerous follow-through on Phil Foden, having received his first for an arm that drew blood from the England international's head."

There was no booking for the follow through on Foden. This this Phil Dawkes even watch the game?

Seen earlier while scrolling a title from Talkshite "Disgraceful Atletico Madrid accused of endangering Man City, but Talk Sport host loved it"
Didn't bother to check who the host was, but fuck me, how low can you be as a pundit/journo.

Now change it to rags/scouse instead of City and I can guarantee you something like that would never be allowed.

Fucking amazing how these cunts get away with this like that.

Media discussions seem to exclude the following:

Dippers easy CL QF, easy CL SF(on paper), PL Rags and Souse1 next up at Klanfield both beyond shite, well rested for FA cup SF. A lot of 50/50 VAR decisions go Dipper's way (a la Sterling goal).

City kicked to pieces either side of both Dipper games. Consequently, key players injured, tired, not rested and suspended.

US owned TalkSport, SKY and our own rag/dipper infested state broadcaster BBC are all at it - is there no end to this disgusting anti-arab media agenda? BBC national news just now, their sports reporter John Watson clearly implying City were jointly responsible for the carnage last night. "UEFA investigation launched after police were involved in tunnel fighting and Pep Guardiola admits his side are in big trouble...." Blatant smears and relentless negative bias - he then went on to extensively praise "impressive Liverpool still chasing all four trophies".

Pep's "big trouble" comment was in connection with the injuries to Walker and de Bruyne and nothing to do with any off the field incidents. Any intimation that it was to do with some UEFA investigation into trouble is troublemaking by the press.

Deliberate, dishonest, deceitful and despicable - this is the way the BBC are currently trying to distort national perceptions of our club

What is most important to point out here is the difference with what the BBC SHOULD HAVE FUCKING REPORTED IN IT'S HEADLINES.

As an English team going to the bear pit of the spanish champions and being subjected to what they were and overcoming that with grit and professional calm

what the fucking fuck - where is our national broadcaster ?

WHERE IS OUR NATIONAL BROADCASTER AND WHY ARE THEY NOT EULOGISING ABOUT A PERFORMANCE BAR NONE IN EUROPE BY AN ENGLISH TEAM ?

I've noticed and pointed out yesterday, saw the highlights of the Chavs vs Madrid and Tyler and Smith were dying every time Chelsea scored. To be honest, I was not paying attention in the past, but I reckon they have the same media "balance" like we have.
Negative press after negative press, but somehow they position themselves as protectors of the English clubs, but only preferential.

I think I am going on 27 years of watching english commentary for the league, I've never heard, not even once, a mention why the english clubs were banned in Europe.

The only time I have heard it mentioned in the media was by Mark Lawrenson.
He was talking about gatherings with his old Liverpool team mates.
He said that the only thing that was never discussed was Heysel.
He was surprised by this given the events and scale of the tragedy.
In fairness, that may be understandable for the players, a bit like trauma victims, block the traumatic events from their minds.

In main stream media it is never talked about, unlike City's vile owners, Newcastle's vile owners, etc...
