Doesn't that equal the club record from the '30s?

We go again, we want 10!

Just watched the ITV news , Chelski win and the Scum beating the barcodes and keeping the pressure on them.

HaHa if it not more blatantly obvious I do not know what is.

ITV = Scum and Retards

Apparently, the 6 o clock BBC news had exactly the same content and spin. Fuckers. They should have played the whole of our first-half performance and told their viewers that this is how football can be played, when you're seriously fucking good.

Cheers pal, it's been a while since I read it.

Good to see that the Rags are keeping pressure on the Chav's with us just getting another win.

It's endemic this shit, they only see the old Sky 4 and nobody else. We are seen as a blemish on this modern day sport, forgetting that there was life before the Premier league.

Just tweeted ITV news and written an email complaint to ITN news & included Simon Heggie our Head of Media Relations complaining over their lack of reporting.

Good to see but I'm not sure it'll make a difference. These are commercial companies who are only interested in the 659 mil Rags or 400 millions Dippers that are tuning in. You'd think the Beeb would be different but even they have goals to meet and the writers/producers who set this up want to keep their jobs.

Anything to set the cat among the pigeons, the more we all email and complain the more will get done.

I've learnt one thing working for a FTSE 100 company and that is if you complain to the right people in the right way things get sorted out, a lot of the times the chief executives aren't aware of certain aspects of their company while social media and emails are powerful tools if used correctly.

A club record is a club record and is deserving of more praise imo. That said it isn't going to be forthcoming and a pot in May will more than make up.

Still pisses me off though

I'm not disagreeing with you mate and I've done similar in the past but I do think this is a top level decision, not an editorial one.

They know where their bread is buttered.

Good to see MotD mentioning our 8 straight wins with RatBoy2 letting us know we don't get enough credit.

I wonder why with fuckwits like you!

Even on the BBC website Football page we are the 13th story down.

As long as the points keep coming in, I am happy.

The players themselves can't fail to see it. Perhaps it serves as extra motivation for them.

To be fair mate, we were one of two secondary stories on the main page, just below the main one - MotD mainly featuring the Rags, Chelsea and Arsenal. Obviously, after an edit, we're now behind the 'Giroud - Sorry' , 'Irvine Worried about Job' and a raft of others which include Chelsea at the top with 3 Rag stories (Wiggy, Wiggy & Ta Maria) before our excellent win, in tough conditions, without a striker.

No bias though, surely?

Wish I'd started a 'MotD' thread now but just not got the energy.

Now that we're a force to be reckoned with part of me likes the media bias. Partly because I can laugh at its absurdity and partly because it will stop easily influenced bandwagon jumpers from coming to us.

On the record. Fantastic isn't it. I legit can't remember our last loss. What a time to be a blue. I'd been panicing at te lack of strikers and the lads have just got ok with the job. Real team spirit on display at the moment

I personally hate the media bias mate and believe it should be highlighted as much as possible (no shortage there). However, I do chuckle inside when some of these reports/pieces are written, they make it so obvious.

I was expecting a 'City struggle in the snow' headline from somewhere, but that would just be absurd.
