Actually, from my perspective, it's because, in contrast to their undoubted technical expertise and innovativeness, Sky's journalism is tabloid crap..
Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

It's a point alright, but then again, part of me is glad that Rafa didn't play their game, and frankly, he did seem to derive pleasure from it, but its not much of an excuse for subjective journalism on the media's part.Originally posted by Scratch View PostGot to admit tho, Rafa did kinda make a rod for his own back with his attitude towards the press, so it's no surprise that he gets unwarrented stick for it from that same quarter. The fact that he was foreign may play a part, but then so is Wenger and the media never hounded him, even with Arsenal's lack of trophy's recently.
Fan paranoia is alive and well, there is no doubt about that, but pushing an agenda without even having the correct "fachts" as Rafa put it, is part and parcel of the modern media.
No doubt we cannot pick up on other teams' fans' disgruntlement, but I don't believe for one second that Sky do not have their favorites.
Wenger, in fairness, is a long term incumbent at this stage, and his overwhelming early success brought him a lot of fans (as well as his thrifty exploits in bringing young players/teams through) so I'm not sure he stands out as an example of media non-targeting. He is the anti-Rafa so to speak, in that he's a real friend of the media.
All Roy needs to do is finish in the top 4, as his media treatment will reach Harry Redknapp levels of sycophancy."I will make the boys feel your support"

By design i feel...they no what get's people talking, they know what 'sells' so they go with it...they piss people off, yet they know you can't walk away. Clever, annoying journalism for the masses.Originally posted by Neil Young View PostActually, from my perspective, it's because, in contrast to their undoubted technical expertise and innovativeness, Sky's journalism is tabloid crap.

The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
