England women beat Latvia 20-0 tonight in a world cup qualifier. Been checking the media outlets for the rightful slagging off they should be getting for showing such little respect for their obviously-outclassed opponents but can't seem to find any......must be because they don't play in blue.
The BBC goes as far as to say:
"The victory signified an end to a disrupted 2021 for England but was the perfect way to cap off an impressive World Cup qualifying campaign under manager Sarina Wiegman so far."

This was the reply.

Thank you for contacting us regarding coverage on the BBC Sport website.

Impartiality is a core value of the BBC, and this is one reason why we believe our news and sport coverage is trusted and respected around the world.

We apply this principle to our reporting of all issues and topics. The BBC is of course independent of any political or commercial interests, and our news agenda would never be influenced by any outside organisation, or in this case, football club.

Ultimately, we know that not everyone will agree on what stories we should cover, how we should cover them, and to what extent. These are complex decisions that our news editors put a great deal of care and consideration into, based on the editorial merit of all the stories at hand on any given day.

We regret that you are unhappy with the level of coverage dedicated to Manchester United on the BBC Sport website, and please be assured we have noted your concerns.

All that being said your feedback is highly valued. All complaints are sent to senior management and the team at BBC Sport for review, and we’ve included your points in our daily overnight audience feedback report.

These reports are among the most widely read sources of feedback in the company and ensures that your concerns have been seen by the right people quickly. This helps inform their decisions about current and future content.

Thanks again for taking the time to get in touch.

Kind regards,

Abbie Crawford.

That is a very long winded way to say fcuk off.

Aye. Good effort though, sniffer, and have the tenaCity to keep asking the awkward questions. Maybe next time ask why you are paying a licence fee for impartial sports content but having to read content for a click-bait audience?

Anyway, fuck ‘em, the cartel loving cunts.
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".

Thanks, I intend to keep asking/complaining. BBC/sport/football/premier league usually have 14 headline stories, sometimes 8 to 10 feature united. Regardless of me being a City fan what about the other 18 premiership clubs and their followers. It is biased and unfair beyond belief, I will not rest on this.

Been there done that, good luck.

It's a bit like the long-haired left wing students of the late 60s and early 70s are now the Uni lecturers and civil servants and it takes decades to iron that out. Same unfortunately with places like BBC and SKY and Scum. Fed on a constant drivel of success under Taggart, these places are awash with Scum fans and it takes ages to get rid.

On the positive side, seems not that long ago that the only City rep on these programmes was Mike Summerbee, who got banned for telling them about their bias. Oh and Andy Hinchcliffe - who just as well never have played for us. Nowadays the first and second generation of City champions are all over the place - and biased as hell.

Great

At least we have a voice in Micah now. Some clubs have no representation at all. I agree Sky are just as bad. How biased are Rat Boy and Martin Tyler apart from being a pair of pricks. It makes me cringe when they commentate.

I agree with Carl on this.
Micah is a lovely guy but he is way out of his depth, talks rubbish and I cannot see the punditry gig lasting for him.

Leeds fans in trouble for “homophobic” chanting last night at Gallagher. “Chelsea rent boy” was the chant.

A lot on here call Ronaldo a ladyboy (justified if you ask me). They’d be thrown out if they mentioned it at a match. Crazy world we’re living in.

Mind you I suppose it's an improvement on Micahs first media appearance.

He certainty talks shite, but in fairness they all do.
But the BBC seem to love him, so I reckon he;s here to stay.

Juventus under investigation for false financial statements.

By the local police, the cunts from UEFA are sleeping, of course.

Bad Sports on Netflix, the episode about Italian football tells the whole story of how corrupt they are.
If I am not mistaken after Calciopoli UEFA had no-decisions against the clubs that took part in the farce, just the Italian federation sent sanctions, relegating Juventus, Milan losing points.
