ABU watch

Nobody wants Utd to win the Europa league, just like they did last season in the FA cup.. the utter shite I've listened to over the weeks about the Europa like is unbelievable, there's spurs media fans trashing it as its the NEW thing to do.
If it wasn't a all English final and Utd wernt in it the Media and ex scouse pundits would all be al in Spurs corner like they were when Fulham got to the final years ago. To be fair Utd and spurs bailed out in the league around February ..
Now when Klopp did it with the dippers and lost the final not much was said about that..

Alyson Rudd you'd probably be astounded to know is a Liverpool fan.

Was a piece in the Times last season when she and Tony Cascarino just went up to a Liverpool game to fawn over Klopp in a post match press conference just before he left.

Most sports journalists support their preferred team but it's often hard to tell because they're professional. With her, you can tell who she supports almost immediately when Liverpool or United are mentioned. She's OK when talking about other teams but when those two are being discussed she's halfway between an actual journalist and a youtuber.
 
Alyson Rudd still making money by being a journalist in 2025 is a great example what's wrong with that industry. She's been a bitter and just all in all terrible writer and person talking about football for well over a decade at this point.
 
Ogden putting it out about Amorim threatening to walk out of club. Great time to put this out. Done to unsettle him and our team. Amorims press conference will result in him being targeted with questions about his future. Media are scum.

Now they want us to give goals away. More than we already do with our game.

Does this apply to every game? Other teams? We had some shocking decisions against us during years. Should those teams give us goal.
 
You'd expect that kind of rage bait from Talksport but it shows the level mainstream football discourse has fallen to when it's the BBC doing it.
 
Heard this all feçking day, bloody hell the ref made the right call, keeper does not have to have 2 hands on the ball or even one just a finger etc he's deemed in control of the ball. Had same shit with the Coventry goal in semi it was offside..
Had that bute Agbonlahore on radio basically I thought someone has died they way he was talking crap.. contradicted himself how many times. The main thing is they don't want Rashford now as they haven't got CL.... so we've been punished more than them..

BBC - Why does Cunha want Man Utd move

Subtext of the article is basically - “why does anyone want to sign for Man Utd, they’re shit.” Did Chelsea get these kinds of articles when they finished down the table yet still signed players left and right? I’d expect better from the BBC.

Why do we expect better? They all hate Manutd.

Shearer berated ETH in last years final for finishing 8th and winning trophy... look how he acted towards Ange...
 
Funny how all the complaining about a team finishing 17th and making the CL through winning the EL has died down since last Wednesday.

I mentioned this elsewhere. It’s as if it never happened.

That article is standard bbc, would be written in a completely different slant for Liverpool.

That could be because he expects better from United. Seeing all that we won back then.
 
No the era of ABU is over.

Its now ABMCONALALAMU
 
It actually really bothers me how the agenda against United these days is portrayed by the media. Take the Europa league final, in the run up were both an absolute joke, totally undeserving of a place in the Champions league. Spurs win and the agenda switches straight away, Spurs have pulled of the incredible and are no longer a joke.

Imagine we'd have won, it would have been continued for weeks and months. Undeserving place in the Champions league this and that.

Can't imagine she would have had much of a sex drive around that time and Richard had some full balls that needed emptying.
I'm obviously being facetious before anyone gets too up on their high horse.

You'd see this level of discourse on a Newcastle forum and this cnut writes for the Telegraph. Football journalism is rotten.

The cnuts a fecking embarrassment. If the Telegraph actually cared about their credibility they’d have given him the boot a long time ago.
 
Devastating tweet from Collymore when you consider he has no known fondness for us. :lol:

Agree, no more issues about a team finishing 17th in league going into the CL.. just blowing smoke up Anges ass .. it utd were there you wouldn't here end of it ..
 
There is this weird thing the English media is doing when they report City transfers, they basically report only the initial fee and never mention the existence of add-ons or they say with bonuses and not share a number but when they report for United it's the full fee plus bonuses (they say up to or total of).

City got Reijnders for €55 plus €15m, they report only the initial fee in £ as if the €15m doesn't exist (other European media report the full fee plus bonuses)


But they reported Ugarte fee in full, initial and bonuses



This is done by the BBC and The Athletic, 2 of the most reliable news in England.

Seen it before but now it feels too obvious and I don't get it why
