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.

The BBC has a virulently pro-Establishment agenda, at the cost of anything approaching impartiality in everything it does.

The main BBC news website has the dippers as the fifth lead story of all news. Interestingly, our win over PSG was only mentioned in the sports section. Piss poor

Sky running a piece this morning on how prem league wages have hit the 2 billion mark. No prizes for guessing which club feature in the picture accompanying the article. It's that kind of shite that really annoys me, they feed the idea to the masses that City are the root of the problem.

I wouldn't mind but the latest figures show that we paid £20 million less in wages than Chelsea last year and £10million less than the rags. Cunts.

I see the English FA are doing their bit too, tweeting their congratulations to Liverpool's English contingent last night but no such tweet congratulating City's English players the night before. Cunts

If that's true that's a joke. I did have a quick look and can't see such a tweet though.

It's going to be interesting to see what order the stories are on this weekend's radio / TV shows, although I think I can guess

Probably a strategic move, England tweet was quickly followed by this :

That means we have players in the last four of both the @EuropaLeague and @ChampionsLeague following @MCFC's excellent win on Tuesday!

To be honest, the scouse media wankfest may work to our advantage in that it will focus more attention on those cnts and allow us to get on with it.

If the Dippers had gone out last night we would be getting it with both barrels from here on in. Let them have their fawning.

Agree with that.
We've slipped into the semis under the radar, largely. Could we make it to the final and win it without anyone noticing???

Howard Hockin commented on media bias towards City in his weekly editorial for the BM podcast for about 10 minutes, and went over several of the same issues quite well, showing how ridiculously inconsistent and biased the coverage is:

http://bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/podcast/epis ... 2-Hoop.mp3

His editorial starts at about 15:50. Here are some key parts:

"Tell me when you have seen or heard any journalist do what Matt Hughes of the Times did last night and criticise not only another English teams' atmosphere but also criticise the club support when a match has sold out? You can't because it's never happened. In the same way that empty seats at Arsenal and United simply don't exist as far as the media are concerned."


"Tell me when you have last watched a European game involving two foreign sides and heard the co-commentator compare the atmosphere with the lack of one at an English sides game the previous night Until Steve McManamon did it tonight, and last night when commentating on City."


"Tell me when do you last recall a pundit sitting in the studio criticising the fans of the team that just secured a famous victory by lying about them not singing rather than just commentating on the performance and the achievement. You haven't of course until Rio Ferdinand did last night at the Etihad."


"The TV studio is filled with ex-United player and they can't be impartial."


"Why then, fans and journalists, do we City fans think you have it in for us? If United had done what we had done, there would be no mention of a few empty seats. Not one mention of what the atmosphere was like. Not one rewriting of history, downgrading the opposition from world beaters two weeks ago to now being considered an average team. And every journalist in the land would say United pressed and made the opposition look average."


"It will take 20 years of success before we have legends in studios."


"Teams that have had success leading up to and during the early years of the Internet age have taken over and consolidated their auras and images of superiority that was transferred around the globe. Raheem Sterling would be the perfect case to prove this...No, it's not paranoia to say if he moved to United none of [the treatment he receives from fans] would have happened

I imagine he often has a good point, but I'm rarely able to keep my focus long enough to find out.
He surely must be tha man with the most boring voice in world history.
