But they're aren't enough threads about media bias on here, let's get some more on.


One general media bias thread should really do it. Of course media bias can be discussed when ever it's relevant but one thread into which most of these posts could be concentrated would be great. One Rag-thread would also do just fine by me.


And me.


Agreed.

Don't have the tiniest interest in how the media talk about us.

No, that's not true. There's the merest hint of extra satisfaction when we win a trophy to recall how these tossers have lost the plot. So overall I prefer the bias agin us, ta very much.

And after all, they mostly don't talk about us because, like the pants on the invisible man, we're not really here.

phips wrote:we are last year's champions. "last year" refers to last season. "champions" means we finished top. when did we finish top? last season.
thus, we are last year's champions. we--nor anyone else--can be this year's champions at this point, or any point up until the end of the season in May.

there's nothing wrong with the statement. don't be so sensitive.


The newbies will never get it.

AAAAAA That song!!!!

It does drive you mad after a while.
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

It's actually quite funny how unashamedly biased it all is


I thought Danny Murphy was really fair in all his comments, though. And he's an ex-scouse.

we are not last years champions, we are the current and reigning champions until we don't finish top again.

all last season the rags were constantly refereed to as the current champions.
Still here.

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.
