Robbored Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 It was 75% Villa. The pundit an ex Villa player, the commentary all about Villa Championship status .......disappointing. Some mention about City but very little. Thatvsaid they did say that City stopped Brighton winning the SB last season.
Guest Euan BCFC Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 I noticed at the start of the game they said something along the lines of 'It's Aston Villa coming to Town, the placeis rocking' as if they were some kind of world class team
Dingbat Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 I think the Villa (and JT) bias will be evident whoever they play on the box this season - i wouldn't take it as a slight on City. Don't forget, a large part of their coverage was discussing how bad they've been and how bad their away record is - hope all the Villa fans at home enjoyed that!
wendyredredrobin Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 I liked it when the City fans sang "You're not famous any more".
Esmond Million's Bung Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 The sky coverage was embarrassing, it was a case of mutual masturbation by all and sundry and Villa/John Terry were their inspiration.

TBW Posted August 26, 2017 Posted August 26, 2017 To be fair if this game wasn't against Villa it wouldn't have been on TV so I'll deal with the lack of support from the commentary team quite happily in exchange for the coverage.
