Lineker was gutted (13 Viewers)

[messiahrobins]

On the BBC at half time during the Franchise City v Saudis game, when talking about our match Lineker was clearly hating having to praise us, in fact they all were, you could see it.
I love it, absolutely love it to see the premier league loving no shame media lot having their day ruined. Bloody love it.

Not sure about that. They were quite complimentary and was good to hear.

 

[covcity4life]

Seriously you are sad as fuck OP. Stop seeing things that ain't there

He literally tweeted about cov as soon as it happened

 

[Sick Boy]

I highly doubt it; he tweeted how happy he was for us.

What an odd take? They were really complimentary, Lineker even bothered to Tweet what a good cup game it was.

 

[ceetee]

Let's face it, our game was probably bottom of the list when they picked their games, but it may well be the most exciting watch.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Linekar has no opinion either way on us. He seemed genuinely complimentary to me

Wasnt talking about his tweet, was i mate. Disnt know he tweeted. The bloke is a c@nt and i know full well he hates us, you are probably too young to remember 2001.

Have an inkling as to why you hate Lineker. Shan't bother nibbling though.
Weird reaction by you after a historic win

Give it a rest

I thought they were OK, Shearer was miserable because Newcastle were losing.

2001 MOTD. The smirk. No i wont forgive or forget. If you have fair enough. Each to their own.

Lineker hates us, always did, Shearer and Ian Wright never had a good word to say about us in the 90s. Had any other lower league team did what we did today they would have been banging on about it constantly.
Younger fans wont remember what these guys were like back in the day.

 

[fatso]

I thought he was very complimentary.

Ian Wright wasn't on there.

Oh I remember just don't dwell on petty shit from over 2 decades ago especially on days such as this

Let me guess. You want to know why refugees don't live with him?

Ian Wright is a great pundit. Unedited, and once he dispenses the tomfoolery his insights are really interesting.
I can’t see why he’d have a beef with us being a London boy. He did break Oggy’s nose once though.
Lineker on the other hand….

I met Ian Wright on holiday in Florida in 1997 and he did say a good word about us so you are factually incorrect.

Yes. Though he does have an opinion on lots of other things.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Why are our fans so obsessed with thinking there is some sort of bizarre media agenda against us?

 

[Seamus1]

I personally do not think there is a mainstream media bias against us, however I bet Midlands Today are going to be absolutely gutted. Furthermore has anyone ever heard that Radio 5 Live ‘Midlands football correspondent’ Pat Murphy ever mention Coventry? He is always commentating on Wolves, Aston Villa or West Brom, and occasionally Leicester City

I have never met him, but he dislikes Oggy ive always had the impression tbh.

What????

 

[Otis]

Have an inkling as to why you hate Lineker.

Because he has a severe dislike for crisps?

 

[Domo]

the leicester/coventry rivalry is a farce anyway

 

[hill83]

What????

The usual stuff against Linekar is his political stances. So it was worth a rod by @covcity4life because other than that I assume that’s why people don’t like him either.

And it’s a decent little barometer for who I assume it a c**t or not

 

[Martin180]

Pathetic thread

Couldnt give a fuck about his political beliefs. Not sure what that has to do with anything.
I hate him as he was a smug c*nt when we got relegated after 34 years. He is a Leicester lad. I really am puzzled why people are defending him.

Cause he did fuck all today

 

[PVA]

This thing where half the forum seems to think the entire media hate us is really weird.

Omg the BBC hate us!!1!1!!!

Remember when they were voting for the best FA cup goal he wasn't very complementary about Houchins goal.

He said our fans were wankers.

Do you always strive to find offence where none is actually offered? It must be exhausting.

Why not try to enjoy the result and stop being so sodding precious.

Did you not get the memo in January when Leicester fans were saying they really don’t care about us…

… I’m sure Lineker was showing how much he didn’t care then too…
