BBC match thread headline. 

Spurs 1-2 Aston Villa : Son has third goal disallowed.

Bunch of nobs. They weren't disallowed. Offside means it shouldn't have even got as far as the net anyway. This is why we think there's a bias. 

100% and the media will overlook this and not criticise Ange for his terrible use of high line

Why did "Big Ange" get so much adoration from the media in such a short space of time? He's a good manager but it was way out of proportion.

same reason bielsa did

What have we always got tragic bluenose Carney analysing our games. Pisses me right off. I want Dean Smith there next time the blosers are on TV in about 6 months time.

SSN wasn't bad, Hendry and O'Hara, one fan of each, so pretty genuine.

I think it's a little bi that, the open, ridiculous football, but also combined with him just being a jovial, chatty manager who's good for a quote rather than the usual boring script.

I feel like Emery doesn't quite get the plaudits he deserves from the media. Ok they give him a lot of praise but I feel like the job he's done doesn't quite match with that. Is it because we're a less fashionable club? Or is it just because he's fairly reserved?

If I was Ange I would be fuming. Just had to take his own medicine for 90 minutes at home. Emrey the master, Ange still the pupil.

It's weird that Sky have the games kick off at 2 and 4.30, it leaves so little time between matches to analyse the first game after the final whistle.  Could easily kick off at 1 or 1.30 instead.  Not that I expect a whole lot from the likes of Carney but we are paying a premium and I expect a bit more.

He's new to the league. His team plays exciting football and he seems like a decent guy.  He's also good copy, which journalists love as he will give them quotes they can work with. I'm sure metrics are involved too, Spurs have 3 or 4x the number of followers across social media channels as we do, a lot of that will turn into clicks. Obviously it's not a one to one thing and Spurs might have inflated numbers because during the decade where Social Media really blew up (2010-2020) they were having one of the most successful periods in the club's history, even if they weren't delivering trophies, whereas we were slumming it with the dead men.

There's been loads of pro Villa stuff during the international break, did you not see it?   There's no circus around Unai either, so column inches aren't being generated by drama, nor is he a guy that neutrals could sit and listen to for ages. Some of that is his personality, he seems pretty chill but some of it is just because he has a thick Basque accent too and it's not easy on the ear.  I don't care either way,  the Villa stuff is out there if you know where to look, just don't expect the BBC, Sky or whoever to start acting like a fan channel.

Of course I saw it? Doesn't mean he hasn't gone under the radar a bit given the job he's done, especially relatively to Postecoglou.

Because he won a few matches as Spurz manager.
