I'm sure I've read an article somewhere that detailed how City had been last more times than any other club - obviously things have changed nowadays, but I don't think this story washes with me entirely.

Match of the Day running order: Chelsea appear first more times than any other club, but here's why it's good to be last

The key phrase for me is about it being "down to the editor". Fine, someone has to make the decison and Chelsea's implosion is certainly headline news but doesn't wash with me when the games where we have delivered multiple goals and are the current league leaders have been pushed down the order because of this 'narrative' (Chelsea meltdown). Hmmmm.

Might be right though about the rags being last more often due to the dross being served up by LVG's multi-millionaires.

When does Chelsea getting beat stop being the main story?

It doesn't. And then, when Mourinho is sacked and Roman's next biatch takes over, they'll get even more preferential treatment.

Still, could be worse, at least it's not City that are the centrepiece of the soap opera, right?
