    This may not be to do with us, but it is not headline worthy news either.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21547926

    That is one of the main feature news headlines...

    I also notice they keep putting Suarez's picture on the 'Today's Football News' column when there is not even any Suarez news inside....

    We've been told time and again the media run the game and if you don't pucker up and kiss their arses you should be sacked, you deserve to be sacked and you will be sacked.

    Bin-raking, phone-tapping, cliche-spouting, myth-propagating, pun-loving ****ers.

    I saw that, pointless article made even more pointless by the BBC not showing or describing the swearing so there is no context to understand whether it was joking or stressed.

    They probably put Suarez up because they want poeple to complain he only scored 2 goals, or that he commited 1 foul for which he wasn't booked while received 10 fouls none of which received a yellow either. Yesterday the BBC live text was being done by a guy who was supportive and excited by Liverpool rather than Tom Rostance or some other miserable Salford twitterist.

    Its not worth pasting. Mancini swore in his press conference. It was after being asked about his City future. But they dont say the context. Was he angry at the question, was it aimed directly at the asker, was it just a slip of the tongue? We dont know.

    But the BBC made a headline out of it.

    I saw a chef swear on Saturday kitchen once when his omelette got stuck to the pan. That did'nt get a headline!

    This^
    I find it difficult to agree with the things you come out with these days, so when you post something I do agree with, I think it's worth a mention.

    Mancini set himself up for ridicule with the " best manager" claim, but it must get frustrating being asked the same questions time and time again. No matter how many times they get an answer the pointless bastard hacks just come back with the same questions hoping to get some fragment of a quote that they can sensationalize.

    I heard the incident from the press conference. It was a light hearted joke and there was cheering and laughing. That the BBC have made a headline of this and then cut the entire incident and reaction to make it seem like it was a serious issue is a disgrace.
