Terribly bad biased journalism by liverpool echo sky sports bt sports and match of the day

[Toffeelover]

happen all those RS pundits are desperate for a bit of extra cash.

 

[Ballsupintheair]

I would assume their numbers in that list is just people who have been pundits on the main sports channels, and MOTD, that have appeared over a certain number of times. Otherwise the numbers for all the clubs would be much higher.

Andy Gray

You beauty

 

[Del-boy]

You can’t get away from them. Doesn’t matter if it’s Sky, BT, BBC or ITV, even Bein sports. Like they must have a kopite in the studio or the broadcast can’t go ahead.

Don't think he was any good for anyone tbh! Was ok at Blackburn I think.

Remember when we were considering signing him and baines going the other way, before baines has broken into the side, just imagine .

 

[gorgeousgeorgeEFC]

To have Carragher doing the co-commentary and Souness and Jamie Redknapp doing the punditry was just too much. I'm now in the process of getting rid of Sky.

Fletcher and mcmanamananaman insufferably Kopite ish tonight mentioning the Steau Bucharest lovers almost every 5 mins you could hear the fear whenever Man City got close to scoring ,the fact there top for the next week minimum means all BT coverage will be directed towards praising the dark side forever more

 

[Jimmyblue4]

Let's get a petition GOING letting the powers that be know you can't have our fiercest rivals "fans" ( pundits) freely taking stabs and insulting us

 

[Jimmyblue4]

Just Google Everton AND see how many news item's about RS pop up. Especially celebrating the derby, disgraceful. If it was France Italy Spain Argentina there would be a civil war

 

[degsy]

rs in media bias shocker

 

[Toffee-nerd]

It even extends out here to australia. The main premier league broadcaster here is optus sports. Half time yesterday they had Luis Garcia as a pundit talking about how good liverpool were and they were worth their lead. Didn't mention the goal was offside. Sick of it tbh, so much blatant bias for them.

 

[Raino85]

So apparently there's just 7 ex-Liverpool pundits?! lol

In the past 12 months I've either watched or listened to all of the following people work on live broadcasts of football matches or be paid to give their opinions about the game by some national media outlet. All our ex-players and/or confirmed kopites

Carragher (Sky)
Gerrard (BT)
Redknapp (Sky)
Souness (Sky)
Saunders (Sky/Talksport)
Beglin (ITV)
Thompson (Sky)
McMananaman (BT)
Barnes (ESPN)
Nicols (ESPN)
Lawrensen (BBC)
Owen (BT)
Murphy (BBC)
Bellamy (Sky)

And before all of that we had Hansen for 30 odd years boring the nation to death.

Can anyone name anymore, surely there is? Absolutely farcical how many of their ex-players get jobs in the media, even Mourinho a few years publicly said it was a ridiculous monopoly and he was fed up of it.

Lawro
Warnock
Mellor

Shouldn't be a problem how many are 'for' a certain team; it's just up to the TV companies to pick somebody neutral or to pick an even number from both sides, including co-commentary! There are more than enough to go around. What annoyed me last weekend was that SKY took this option for the other two derbies (Neville on Spurs-Arsenal; Alan Smith on CFC-FFC), but then we had Carragher.

And for the people saying it doesn't matter: the immediate, high-profile pundits shape so much in the game. Particularly when they can be the first one to express an opinion or highlight something. From who gets investigated for diving/elbowing etc., to the branding of a club's playing style, its manager and its players, to what fans think about a team. It stretches so far. Yes, there is a whole lot more that matters too. But to suggest it's insignificant goes completely contrary to evidence.

Sound pathetic some off you lot.

They were also of course responsible for getting the two match 'simulation' ban for Niasse.
