If Everton beat West Ham will the BBC do a top 7?

So a British ambassador for one of the Worlds biggest charities, who also just happens to be one of the most famous football faces on the planet, hosts a football match for said charity in Manchester, and the kopites are whinging because the BBC had the temerity to write about it post a picture of Beckham as part of it?

Seriously lads, you need to give your heads a collective wobble on this BBC bollocks.

Its ****ing cringe.
It's another one of dem conspiracies.

On one level, I don't really care that the Beeb journos are Man U obsessed. They clearly are though, and that is apparent to anyone who isn't a Man U supporter themselves (or those who just take any opportunity to have a go at us on here).
I don't care in footballing terms, because their opinions are irrelevant, but I do think it's sad on a different level. The BBC has a long and venerable history- in the pre-internet days it was often the best source of information for large parts of the world, and it's a shame for its standards to decline to the point where it too is becoming irrelevant.
I don't think there are dark forces at work, I just think it's laziness and lack of awareness (the same traits that make the London-based media find every detail associated with the capital fascinating whilst ignoring much of what goes on elsewhere).

It's the overall decline in their journalistic standards that I dislike and the lack of effort to be impartial and to look further than the ready-made stories on their doorstep- which is a significant part of their journalistic brief.
Having said that- it's only their sports department, and not very important anyway.

Whenever I criticise them it's usually for their poor grammar and spelling- a subject what is deer to my hart.

It's not though, saint. If you watch BBC breakfast news, there's a far higher proportion of articles related to the Greater Manchester area than ever there used to be.
 
My official stance is; I don't give a **** <ok>

If you think the BBC pages are biased then either don't read it or try doing something about it (complaining on a internet forum doesn't count).

You might as well say that if you don't like what's going on anywhere don't bother discussing it on here.
