Happinesstan Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Why does the “Grauniat” hate us so much Based in Manchester, socialist lefty leaning newspaper. Just to add insult to injury they employ a Mackem to cover us in the North East. Just a few reasons why they might not be in favour. It's not like.

Stifler Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I wish that I didn’t have to wait until the end to find out that I have spent half an hour listening to a mackem trying to play the moral top trump card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Not listened yet but; I've always liked Glendenning but he along with the rest of The Guardian, have been against this from the start. Me too, he's funny on the Guardian podcast and usually pretty fair. I don't doubt for a second he'd be saying the same thing if it was another club they were buying. If alot of people on here are honest with themselves they'd be critical of the same deal going though at another club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founded in Manchester, their headquarters may now be in London, but they have an office on deansgate for northern stories. So technically yes there based in Manchester.

OpenC Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 It used to be called the Manchester Guardian but I think it's a long way from its northern roots now I don't think they hate Newcastle United nearly as much as they hate Saudi Arabia, but at the end of the day they're just like any other news source; you have to look past their angle to find the actual news and make your own mind up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliMag Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I read the Guardian daily (because of course I do) BUT Wilson, Glendenning, and Taylor all support Sunderland. They don't have a single Newcastle supporter on staff. It does make a difference. The closest thing they have on the podcast is Philipe Au Claire who always has nice things to say about us, but I suspect its mostly done to irritate Barry.

Jesus Christ that's tedious. Did anyone make it past 5 minutes? I have to be honest I don't hate Glendenning, but I do pity him. He's garnered this reputation as being a bit of a drunk bore, and even if it's true it's a bit unsettling to watch people around him joke about it. He also doesn't seem that enthused about his own job. It's lots of half-arsed pod appearances and talking points even he doesn't feel confident in.

Ultimately he's getting paid to watch, talk and write about football and he treats it as if he's stacking shelves, and then has the gall to chastise fans that actually pay to watch He's the Michael Owen of journalism.
