Very true mate, I almost think a majority of other fans would like to see us do well too!

Really? Why? I always thought he speaks well of us?
Every single professional footballer I have spoken to today absolutely agrees.
They'd have to turn into a broadsheet to get them all in.
That doesn't surprise me in the slightest actually, are you allowed to name drop as to who? Or even better, just give initials, it'll be more fun! I'm gonna dim the big light for a game show like atmosphere!

Jim Beglin on the radio was the worst I've heard, although you're going back a bit - maybe he's chilled now. tbh a least he had a personal reason for disliking us, can understand that more than the nodding heads who just dribble over the top six or whatever.
Pity the koppites though - by far the strongest media bias is pro-Utd IMHO, must be enraging for them. The media likes to talk mince about the Man Utd 'way of football' - fearless, swashbuckling attack and the Old Trafford faithful will accept nothing less. Fair enough Fergie put out some good stuff in his time, but was more perspiration than inspiration in Europe yet you'd think it was some peak-Messi Barcelona like golden era the way they're eulogised.

Likewise when the RS are on and its getting to the 80 minute mark, the commentator will usually remark how they're good at late goals and winners "as they showed in that derby match with that fantastic late goal against their rivals Everton". (NB and not the one that was gift wrapped for them, scissors provided)

Carragher: "I never see Newcastle as one of the biggest clubs in the country, but I see them as a team that should always be in the top 10, always around that mark with Everton and West Ham.
Prick.
Prick.
I completely forgot to do this test but so wanted to... Was anyone else playing? Just out of curiosity!

Examples in today's commentary, I think they genuinely don't realise that they are doing it. E.g. 'Lucas Digne has had a GOOD season in an AVERAGE team' (DN. I'd have gone with 'excellent' and 'average'). Contrasted with 'Man United are a TOP team'.
Action areas that pops up: 41% their box, 50% middle, 9% our box. Commentator comes out with: EFC have made a GOOD start.
43rd minute, we finally got: 'EFC have done virtually everything right, it’s been a terrific performance'
So we got there in the end! But we're as far behind United in the league as United are behind City! But the starting point is that non-top 6 teams get nuance, the top 6 teams get superlatives!
