DM headline news ....BINDIPPERS,then the MUNCHENS and further down the paper ..its Citys game.

You couldn't make this shit up (or apparently you could), courtesy of the BBC of all places, it's really going down market since they realised they actually had to account for the pennies they were spending. This is taken from the middle of a piece about the match where he manages to slag off both CITY and PSG:

The money men don't live up to billing

This fixture was touted as a battle of Europe's richest clubs, with both sides backed by wealthy Middle-Eastern owners - PSG's from Qatar and Manchester City's from the United Arab Emirates.

While the teams have spent almost a reported £800m between them on players in the past five years, the game, which was entertaining, lacked the quality expected from such blue-chip line-ups.

Fernando's mistake for PSG's equaliser was a prime example.

The Brazillian collected a pass from Hart on the edge of his own penalty area and, while trying to flick a pass with the outside of his foot, directed the ball off Ibrahimovic's boot and into an empty net.


"The adjudicatory chamber of the Ethics Committee ... has banned Mr Joseph S. Blatter ... for eight years and Mr Michel Platini ... for eight years from all football-related activities (administrative, sports or any other) on a national and international level. The bans come into force immediately." - 21/12/2015

The BBC is Establishment trash, nothing more. Even it's news content is as partial as I am to a curry.

Just decided to take a look at the daily mail app on my phone to see what their take was on the good result last night. I had to scroll down past the following before I got to a city article.

WW while you are 100% correct. I think the order in which these stories are presented are (at least partially) determined by the amount of clicks the story gets.

With our fan base vs rags, dippers etc this is unlikely to keep city related stories at the top of the page for very long.

Tuned in to see how the BBC would portray tonight's match in their sports report after the news at 7:30. Normally they would say something along the lines of "Good luck to the only British team left in Europe's premier cup competition tonight...............etc"

But no, true to form, before the report even started the sports reporter (Matt Smith - Scouse rag fan) turns to the sofa and asked the presenters what their definition of European elite was!!! Sally Nugent says "Champions League medals" and Dan Walker says "10 semi final appearances".

That was us firmly put in our place before the fcking report even started.

Anyone who still thinks there is no media agenda needs to have the scales removed from their eyes.
