Journalists banned from Ten Sacked Presser

Man United have reacted to 10 defeats from 21 games by banning journalists from attending Erik ten Hag's press conference.

So precious and petty. Or is this justified?

We are still one of the form teams in world football with only two PL defeats since SEPTEMBER. Those were against two very good and very cheating teams in City and Newcastle. If you take out those essentially invalid results, this current side is statistically the best EVER PL side.

Yes, I don't think that pallet of bricks that fell on my head earlier did any real damage.

Of course. His change in opinion will be linked to his own club somehow. I guarantee that.

This doesn’t even come close to the list of things I actually give a f@ck about.

I get why the dips care as they will always feel inferior to us despite having a much better team. It is strange behavior.

Not sure any Liverpool fan feels that way.

Neither am I. Which was the point.

I totally wish my club would ban certain media outlets if that's what you mean.

Not my fault your brain can not figure this out.

Journalists writing unsourced/verified stories should absolutely be banned and I'd say the same should go for every club.

Of course people need to be tribal and will be very petty about it. This affects every club and much like VAR, should be something fans can pretty universally agree on and discuss.

But no, that's far too hard to do. Much easier to make the same snotty one liners that have been made a million times. It really is like groundhog day, how are people not bored with the same cycle and things being said?

What is an unsourced/verified story? Who defines that?

And who determines which stories are "unsourced/verified"? The clubs?
