A defeat for City would see Boro become the second team this term to complete a league 'double' over them. Only Portsmouth have beaten the Sky Blues both home and away.
Lets be honest the standard of reporting surrounding various aspects at CCFC has often been shoddy, inaccurate and baseless sensationalism. It is lazy journalism, and what I find so frustrating is that the correct information is usually easily obtainable. :facepalm:
To be fair I reckon it's just as bad for a lot of sides our level. I remember a FLS a while back where Reading were playing. The number 19 assited one (and was referred to as Jobi McAnuff), before then scoring one and correctly being referred to as Hal Robson-Kanu. I think they're just lazy to be honest. Match of the Day is pretty poor as well.
if you didnt support cov, you wouldnt bother about us either...
saturday at 2:59pm summed up when it is like to support CCFC. We were the only team that knew we would be in the championship next season, all the rest could still go up or down. CCFC - GOING NOWHERE
Jeez lads cut the victim mentality you sound like scousers! Its just the usual media thing. They are more interested about bigger clubs because their viewers are more interested in big clubs. As much as it pains me to say it if I wasn't "blessed" with them as my team I'd think we were one of the most insignificant clubs in the country.
At least get the facts right! I mean I'm sure beating Pompey home and away does not mean Portsmouth did the double over city. Also didn't City beat Middlesbrough at the Ricoh? So how does City beating Boro or Boro beating City means that Boro does the double over City?
I've heard about people complaining to the BBC about 'biased' language- perhaps a friendly email might point their (admittedly idiotic) errors out? The wording's just stupid lol
Even Craig Hignett just said in his report on CWR (pre-recorded) that Middlesborough beat Cov at the Ricoh, and that if they win they'll be the only team other Portsmouth to do the double!!!
Clive Eakin didnt even correct him, however as im typing this he has pointed out he was wrong not to correct him on his stats!! Only relating to Borough fact though!!
Yet again no highlightS on midland today! Why do the BBC think its acceptable that they only show premiership highlights (when they play) and lower leagues apart from the championship??
