Read two articles on Sky Sports, one on Giggs and one on Mendy.

The Mendy article had Man City in the headline and mentioned Man City four times in a short article.
The Giggs article did not have Man Utd in the headline and mentioned MU twice in a much longer article.

Unlikely to be coincidence.

Fair play to Souness for not backing down on the comment he made about football being a man’s game

Let’s see if he is still a Sky pundit in a couple of weeks

The womens players that have tweeted about it crying are showing exactly why he’s said it.

We are powerless to do anything about this. The point is not that they are women, the point is the criteria has always been - we were told - that to be a pundit you have to have played in the Premier League. These women have not played in the Premier League. If they were going to use pundits who haven't played there, then anyone who played football could have got a gig - maybe me? How about Carl?

It's just all so ridiculous and unfair.

As soon as he said it, we all knew what was coming. So predictable and unnecessary

I don’t know why they’re getting so emotional about it. The match he was commenting on was literally a mens game. Are they that thick they don’t know the difference?

everyone needs something to be outraged about nowadays - so tiresome

This should be rammed down the throat of the liars in the media

fcuk Souness and the horse he came into town on.

Couldn't give a toss about his current predicament.

You might not give a toss about him but they are coming for all of them, it won’t stop here

Cannot be ignored though - this BS needs to be confronted at every given moment .

There's some redshite article on the BBC saying who's best, rags in 99 or red scouse in 22.
At least rags won the league in 99.
Suppose they have to do something to keep their redshite fanbase happy, cos the redshite teams certainly aren't.

[Blue Jam]

I'm sure a deluge of this this sort of dipper rag BS was predicted on another thread

It's not even a contest. Rags won the treble and the scousers failed to score in three finals. Neither team has won a game yet this season so why even debate two of their squads from different eras. Some of the other questiosn are more interesting and relevant to be fair. Would like to have seen a question about the most successful team of the last decade but they would probably just bitch on about us not winning the Corruption League yet.

Thought the questions were interesting to be honest and both sides put their respective debates across well.

And though the rags obviously ended up with 3 pots which hasn't yet been matched, they were dead lucky and should have actually won none of them. Arsenal should have won the Double and Bayern the CL

Precisely, and though Liverpool won only the FA cup and the League Cup, they were dead unlucky and should have actually won all of them, and probably some they didn't enter as well.

[patrickblue]

Good god, I never thought any of you would go so far as look at the questions. The whole point of posting was to show my disgust at how far the media would go to promote two sides that are failing abysmally on the pitch. I don't even think there's any debate who's better, one lot dominated the others won a couple of cup finals on penalties.
Who was better in 2022 or were City 2022 or rags 1999 better might have been more relevant.

It's because there's their relegation 6 pointer coming up

Precisely this. I saw the story but was never about to read it. Good old beeb, trying to drum up interest in the paddy power derby

Unfortunately every story eminating from Dipperpool seems to be conceived by the reasoning of 5 year olds, not really worth the bother - although they do usually sneak 'Manchester City' in there as clickbait!

Interesting thing is that if, by some bizarre twist of fate, the Rags win, they will be above Dippers in the league.
