After MOTD blanking us, Sky took it to lower depths of Spurs-dissing by talking for about 10 minutes on the title race, and we're complete non-entities apparently.
I saw that, though I suppose they are just trying to big up the City v pool match they are showing tomorrow. It's good if we are ignored.
Let them ignore us. We've got a run of home games now. Do what we need to do and screw what the media think. Less pressure that way. They'll keep showing as many of our games as they can anyway, as we're the best team to watch.
Fair comments, but it was cringeworthy the way they completely ignored our input into the title race.
Let them ignore us, it takes pressure off the team that they're placing ones that (coincidentally) cracked over Christmas/New Year.
I want us so desperately to finish above one of the Manc teams, so that I can see the smug grin smacked off that tramp Lawro's face. Hopefully, it will be Linekar giving him the smacking, too, for taking the piss out of him, season after season.
Why is it? Sky don't give a **** who wins the league, they're in the business of selling the next match they screen, any hype to get more eyes in front of their advertisers. We're not, or ever have been perennial title challengers, so why on earth would they, especially at this stage of the season.
Why is it? Quite easy really, because we're 3rd, at this stage of the season. To repeat, it was cringeworthy to watch such poor journalism and analysis.
3rd means you're 2 places off 5th, just as you are 1st. To repeat, we are not title challengers...yet. I will add, a few more weeks of odd results and that could change, i just don't think the term applies to us this week.
Radio 5 live have dismissed us as well,they had pat Creand and Dennis someone, who played for City discussing which team would win the league.
