The Liverpool v Man Utd game and the media

A little rant time I'm afraid.

On two different stations today I heard comments along the lines of these....

- Man Utd and Liverpool is the biggest game in the world given they are the biggest 2 clubs (er... Barca anyone?)
- Man Utd v Liverpool is the biggest game on the planet (er... El Classico?)
- 'Everyone' in the UK will be glued to their screens this afternoon

I think you catch my drift...

It riles me when comments like that are made as there are lots of different definitions of 'Big' (Mrs ACS can vouch for that).

Personally opinions like that should not be pushed out to the nation as there is a footballing world outside the North West...... one that disagrees on so many levels with the above...

 

Sounds to me like delusion near the level of the Americans, who call everything they do "World this..World that.."
