Very rarely mentioned

often overlooked

Why are we hated by the press and Sky

Two reasons in my mind. A lot of the media establishment grew up in the RS era of winning so are either fans or have a soft spot for them and a natural dislike for us.

The second reason is that we are usually the team who stop the formation of their beloved super six. When we were rubbish pre Moyes, or under Martinez they were more than happy to big us up. When we threaten the top end of the league showing up certain clubs who spent more than us, taking European spots from others, they don't like it.
 
Don't let it get to you. Why should we be arsed in the slightest. At the moment the more time they spend discussing the shortcomings of the RS the better.
Our time in the limelight will come but only by hard work and winning things. The commercial requirements of the Murdoch empire means that they have to have a steady interest from the big six, or as we know wherever Liverpool stand and above.
 

Middle table still in reality, anyway let them hate, once they jump on the bandwagon loads of tourist will start turning up and we don't want Bramley Moore full of those

We get a decent amount of attention and praise on Talksport ironically.

When Sky bought it, the first few weeks were just dreadful on some shows, as it was obvious they had been told to Skytastic the place. Jim White was the worst culprit.

But now, its settled back into shape a bit. Its almost like the producers and that have actively railed against the approach. The top clubs still get a lot of coverage, obvs, but Jim White has calmed right down, and actually has long segments about Charlton, Blackpool, tons of other clubs.
 
Was thinking this last night watching MOTD. They showed the league table of top 6 and i thought whats the betting that if we overtake Utd that they will either show top 7 or just top 5. Almost guarantee it will be one or the other
Just go with the flow matey.
Don't get wound up over this. Last on MOTD, Local BBC don't mention us, only three lines mention us in the papers.
I for one don't care!
We shouldn't need any one else to laud us up. Leave that to the players and RK.
