At risk of being abused for my armchairyness (I do, after all, live in Leeds unlike lots of you listers), wasn't Sky's coverage last night blatantly biased?
I mean I'm not one of those chip on my shoulder Leeds fans, but the way they highlighted everything that Leeds players did - eg Beckford's elbow to the keeper's jaw but almost totally ignored the fact that he'd been elbowed first, or the forearm smash on Robinson, or the shove in the back that lead to Marques 'fouling' their player for a 'penalty', even down to the closing montage with Grayson laughing right after the Robinson elbow - was outrageous. To me, it was a tough game, played by committed players, all of which were equally competitive, or equally bad, depending on how you like to see things. To Sky, it was a team of Frank Booths and Hannibal Lecters vs Luby-Loos and Hambles! And why do Sky never have anyone out and out Leeds as their sumerupper? If it's not Dave 'wanker' Bassett it's Michael 'canIhavesomefreephysiowhileI'mhereworkingforSky?' Bridges. Nice victory though.
