Pure Class from the scouse there then ,
Tyler will probably call it Vindication for the horrible
Time the dippers endured , Holy fuck Cunts

[salford city]

Just when you think that they could not sink any lower. You would have thought someone would have said something about the date - fuck me

[Original Dub]

They don't give a flying fuck about heysel and neither does the British media.

I'd love to watch that parade live if all that ends up being on display is the fa and league Cup

I once asked why a foregn guy supported the rags. He answered that he liked English football and as his national TV only ever showed the rags or Dippers his choice of clubs was rather limited.

Yes, but why? That's the million-dollar question.
I can confirm that I've seen City once in Romania in the 90s, and another time before 2004.

I am speaking from the point of view of a country that was very limited football-wise until 1989. After that, romanians had a colossal hunger to see football on tv, but they were fed by the rising media with the rags & scouse, barca & real.
I wrote here, I found out we were relegated in 2001 two weeks later after someone told me. Had no way of knowing with all of the rags/scouse games on the telly.

Now the local broadcaster here for the Premiership is owned by Eurosport (for 5 years now). Every game in the Pep era the commentators mention about the money Pep spent on defence (money that are mostly fake news).
I am 100% convince they are getting the brief from the main station of Eurosport, which is owned by Warner Bros.

Sorry for the delayed response Peter.
The answer is simple. If you show a couple of teams week after week and if the advertising about those clubs is always positive, the sheeple swallow it. Just like the sheeple here in England believe that the rags and dippers wealth grew oprganically and despite being exonerated by CAS, the sheeeple still believe we are the corrupt club. It's because it is an incessant message from the media.
It controls public opinion, it creates markets and audiences to sell to. That created demand increases advertising revenue and therefore increases the profits of all concerned.

The rags, dippers and Arse are media manufactured...and the sheeple follow as sheeple do

REVEALED: Liverpool to pay Wolves a multi-million pound bonus payment as part of Diogo Jota transfer deal if they win the Premier League... raising integrity concerns over their crucial clash at Anfield on Sunday
Diogo Jota joined Liverpool from Wolves in a deal worth £45million in 2020

Wolves will receive a multi-million pound bonus payment from Liverpool as part of the Diogo Jota transfer if they win the Premier League this weekend, raising concerns over the integrity of their potentially decisive meeting at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp’s side will win the title if they beat Wolves and Manchester City fail to win at home to Aston Villa, and may draw some confidence from the fact that the visiting club have a financial incentive to underperform.

Jota signed for Liverpool in a deal worth up to £45million in September 2020, but Wolves received just £4m up front, with much of the rest of the fee dependent on both the player’s and the buying club’s subsequent performances.
Liverpool have since paid a further £13m to Wolves in mandated instalments and Sportsmail has learned that another payment of several million will be due if Jota wins his first Premier League title.

Wolves will gain an extra £2.2m in prize money if they secure their current position of eight in the table however, which may require them to match Leicester’s and Brighton’s results at home to Southampton and West Ham respectively, so they also have an incentive to try to beat Liverpool.


Such performance-related payments are increasingly commonplace in transfers that are not triggered by a release clause as the trading clubs are left to haggle over the fee structure, with the Jota deal complicated by a fixture list that has sent Wolves to Liverpool with the title up for grabs on the final day.

The Premier League banned so-called third-party ownership of players in an attempt to protect the integrity of the competition following the Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano affair in 2007, but the potential for third-party influence still exists in the form of complex transfer deals and a loan system that permits clubs to dictate the schedules of players they have loaned elsewhere.

In another quirk of the fixture list City’s final-day opponents as they seek the victory that would see them retain the title are Villa, who sold Jack Grealish to them last summer. Grealish had a £100m release clause in his contract at Villa Park, however, and it is understood that the transfer does not include any performance-related bonuses, with City paying the club-record fee in three equal instalments.

I remember him tapping the Burnley players in 18/19?
No one said anything bad about that. Was quite normal.

To be fair, John, every single person I have spoken to has said that we have to win on Sunday, otherwise they’ll be insufferable. Wolves fan (Rags are his 2nd team!), Rags, Spurs, Shef Wed, to name a few. The only ones who pull their face and won’t talk about it are Dippers and those who have Dippers as their second team.

What I think we are seeing is the media sycophants showing herd mentality and revelling in their own shit while others watch on in disbelief.

That would be fantastic, Beef, but I think the others will soon forget, as they usual do. I still have the impression that other fans are too gentle with the dippers based on the history and what they did to english football. They still get a free pass, imho.

BBC Sport Football - no mention of Foden award - no mention of our record third U18 League Win - total guttersnipes. If they were Rags they'd be top billing - eg U18 Cup won by the swampettes massive feature by Cyrano Stone.

hours after other news outlets and still no recognition of U18s from last Thursday BBC Sport is infested with rags and dippers.

Media is full of “how to beat City “ articles though .
How anyone can even argue the point that the media are bias is beyond me .

Typical article, note the headline, “City Backlash”, then the first line of the subtext “Utd Backlash”. Subtle but it boils my piss. Journalism as an intelligent and honourable profession is dead, not only in sport but everything. In my humble opinion they should be called activists not journalists, because all of them are acting on behalf of someone with an agenda, in other words they are owned.

They don’t light any candles for the people who died or were injured
That’s why I hate them and journos who suck up to them loath their We’re victims whining.
You have to admit the city is a cesspit of criminal low life, has the most unattractive dialect, and the worst fans ( excluding Evertonians they are ok ) in the
Entire leagues of England and Europe yet still the media adore them.
