Media Bias

Quality stuff from Savage. Spends 10mins saying Leicester should take off one of their three central defenders. Leicester do just that and when Villa score he blames it on the defender having been taken off. Wonderful insight.

Was getting pretty wound up by them constantly showing Tim Sherwood in the stands. Yes we all know he's the new manager :roll:

I get annoyed by that as well.

Also the media obsession with Harry fuuuucking Redknapp and QPR

Jason Roberts came across very well. Bright, enthusiastic and articulate with a screen presence.

Even when asked if we signed Yak because Reading are used to playing with a big lump up front.

Although from the way he was sitting, it looked like he was wearing running tights.


Roberts has always impressed me with hs knowledge and reading of the game, and being articualte helps massively.

I actually like it that there are a lot more pundits who have spent a reasonable portion of their career outside the top flight, people like Roberts and Kilbane seem to have a much more rounded knowledghe of the game.

He scares me when he talks - his eyes go really big and he looks like he's going to nut someone with his direct talking.

He always looks to me like he's got an earpiece in through which someone is telling him racist jokes.

Jason Roberts is something like I imagine an American sports pundit to be i.e. talking absolute shite just to make sure you comply with your 3000 words a minute media contract.

Quite like Michael Owen as a pundit, seems insightful beyond the obvious.

I like a lot of what he says but his voice is so boring. He needs to find out who Lineker got to coach out his initially monotonous drawl.

I guess its ok to cheat if the keeper is asking for it :|

Class showing from Utd.
A blatant dive for the last one and I really don't understand how Rooney wasn't interfering with play for the second. Interfering with play seems to now mean actually touching the ball. The ball went straight at an offside player, who stepped out the way, therefore throwing the keeper off. I just don't get the rule now.
