City press for media recognition
By Dave Walker
So the media darlings of Spurs will roll up
at the Etihad Stadium with all the jaundiced anti-Manchester City journalists
hoping Andre Villas Boas’ team can end the champions’ near two year unbeaten
home run.
It was even worse when Harry Redknapp was indulging in an appreciation society
with the journalists, but even the demise of Redknapp hasn’t stopped the
Spurs adulation society.
The contrast as to how the two clubs are
portrayed in the press is staggering. City remain unbeaten in the Premier
League and are cheated out of the Champions League by a dodgy Danish ref and
yet still court negativity.
Spurs lose at home to unfancied Wigan and
then beat a bunch of Slovenian no hopers – NK Maribor – but are still lauded
for their wonderful free-flowing play. Pathetic.
