    Interesting question.

    I'd say there is media bias as there is in everything to do with the media, I'm not sure what drives it though. It's not gone unnoticed in the lower leagues how much publicity Wrexham have got, as someone questioned the other week, two clubs got menshy's, Wrexham and Notts County, and the question was asked have you actually looked to see who's top of the league (at that time). I heard my lot got some publicity this weekend, some show that was broadcast interviewing the manager and club owner I believe (I've still to see it). So is it about being a big club or is it really about how you market yourself - that would certainly be true of Wrexham , no?

    Newcastle have powerful buyers/owners, I'm not sure that any media company wants to be left out of any potential growth, by not broadcasting you now. Newcastle and Sunderland, have a massive fanbase between, much like Man Utd and Man City, well ok just Man Utd lol. TV companies want viewing figures, they are not going to get that by showing Luton v Sheff Utd, otherwise the old man might decide he'll prefer to go shopping with the Mrs, oh well ok, he'll go in the pub while she browses the shops.

    So what conclusion have I drawn from all this, fook knows, but you aint a big club, you are fates constant runner-up, and I can't see that tag changing any time soon.

    We don't create or look close to back end of last season. Can't say I'm overly confident.

    Watching MOTD. It won’t get talked about as it’s not a TV game and City won anyway.

    Rodri obviously has to be sent off as the rules are the rules even if it’s a stupid rule to send someone off for briefly touching a neck. Why can’t Gibbs-White be booked at least also for obviously feigning injury?

    They couldn’t beat Everton at home. You’ll be fine.

    Actually quite fancy them at 9/2. Crowd will be bang up for it and Hamer is better than your midfielders.

    My point was nothing to do with Spurs, but seeing as you mentioned them, I’d say it’s more clear if the style that Ange wants Spurs to play than ETH wants Utd to play even though it’s only been 6 games competed to ETH having over a year.

    Today will be a really difficult test for Spurs but win, lose or draw, the gaffer won’t change the way he wants them to play.
