Manchester City loan Josh Wilson-Esbrand again

Manchester City have it bad. According to The Daily MailTHE Cityzens expressed their dissatisfaction with the BBC Radio Manchester after the absence of a journalist at the pre-match press conference concerning the derby against Manchester United (defeat, 1-2). An unprecedented situation according to club officials. Etihad Stadium residents believe this treatment deprives their fans of fair coverage with other Premier League clubs.

For its part, the BBC claims to cover Manchester City as usual and recalls having provided commentators for the two clubs during the derby on December 15. However, Radio Manchester does not have a similar rights agreement with United, which makes the situation more delicate. If the BBC denies the existence of a formal complaint, Manchester City have made their dissatisfaction clear, emphasizing the importance of broadcast rights for local stations and the need to respect their supporters.
