Football

They are probably pumping money into the FA too

I swear the whole crowd cringed when that Gallagher started croaking down the mic', it was awful!! I did Charlie's homework to escape the noise - now I have to see the headmaster !!

Of course they'll cope. But the media is a clicks based business & need to make things seem more serious than they are to get those clicks.
That's why there are more pieces in the media about the red Mancs than any other team for example. They know they'll get ten thousand times more clicks than if they write a dozen stories about Brentford or the south coast scum.
Layer some doom on the story, no doubt fuelled by FFP FC's press office who have been instructed to make a mountain out of a mole hill & hey presto! Speculative nonsense from pundits who aren't actual journalists.
On the plus side for FFP FC, it takes their disciplinary hearing out of the spotlight. It's all confected. Trick is not to bite.

That term was a soundbite from Bernardo Silva. Nothing more.
& look at how it's being framed.
I can confidently say that nothing of the sort is happening. It's all for clicks & is a complete non story.
Today's big market is stirring anger & that's not exclusive to footy by the way. But that's a different conversation.
The more angry they get people, the more attention & clicks they get.
Don't bite. That's exactly what they want & that drives even more clicks.
It's a load of nothing.

Yep. & it's working.
Ignore it. It's a waste of energy that is better spent enjoying stuff you enjoy.
I watch a game. I moan about the ref, the assistant ref(s) &, come the final whistle, I just get on with whatever I want because what I think won't change a thing.
It's just not worth getting riled up about.

No I don't. But I'd wager media companies have focus groups that give them that exact same feedback so they know where to stir up discord & anger.
They are the real villains & parent should let their kids know that too. Like I said, it's all confected to drive clicks.
