Simon Stone Reporting but as a supporter

This guy is doing it again. So obviously a Manu fan. Has posted 4 items so far this morning, all pro Utd, including a pathetic "sunrise over old trafford" picture. It is fundamentally wrong to use your job to clearly comment on your favorite team, like we ( ordinary supporters ) do on 606. The guy is not worth to price of a newspaper in my opinion.
Also have you all seen the fever pitch reporting of the Spurs defeat ( to a follow PL team I might add ) on today's back pages. Apparently Spurs as a club are almost disintegrated because of two cup defeats, both to PL teams, one on penalties and with at least half the first team missing ( not taken into account ) Did we see the same level of hysteria when Liverpool went out to Wolves and already out of the League Cup months ago ?? Nah because it is right for them to focus on the league - but apparently Spurs doing this ( PL game in a couple of days ) is sacrilege in their eyes.
Media.....just pathetic.

He was at OT for Ole’s press conference, what do you expect him to tweet about?

I thought Klopp should have started one of the front three in the Wolves game

And on the subject of the article, seriously who gives a shiiit. If you are offended or upset by a reporter, stop reading their pieces or listening to them

How can you stop reading ?? Why should I not view the BBC website or read a national paper or for that matter have an opinion about the likes of Simon Stone. What I would actually like to read is both fair and balanced criticism and praise for all clubs. Not the trash written this morning. Yes it is correct to compare press about liverpool and spurs or manu. At the moment there are lots of "end of the world" items about spurs, but if you use manu as an example, where they writing about manu season "unravelling" when actually a month ago is really was. Now it is all coming up roses for a team that are still 6th, which is poor considering their financial outlay. Yes liverpool might win the league, but like our supporters, do you not think they would have liked to see a cup final this year ?
In terms out club positions, that fact is spurs should not be third in the PL given their financial muscle compared with others, but there they are ( for the 4th season running ) so actually you could argue Chelsea, Arsenal and Manu are "unraveling" given their current PL positions. I mean chelsea and arsenal are not even in the champions league ffs When do we read anything about that ? plus they cannot all win the fa cup, so when one goes out are we going to read headlines like this morning ? Sorry but the press, sky etc have their favorites and have the power to say so in a forum that should be impartial.

OP, is Simon Stone now a City fan?

Or is he just the BBC football correspondent for both Manchester clubs?
