Everton fans will be fuming about this one.
Sure, they’re in 9th place at the moment, but you can’t deny that Everton have got a prettty decent squad this season.
Rooney, Sigurðsson, Pickford, even Walcott – they’re all world beaters on their day. So when the BT Sport production team was filming the advert for their game against Manchester City on Saturday, you’d have thought they’d have seen fit to include them. At least to some extent.
But no.
The advert for the game has been released and fans are pointing out a glaring omission, in that only City players are shown in the video.

Considering Everton are playing at home – not to mention that they remain the only team to take points from the likely-Champions at the Etihad this years – the trailer for the match feels especially disrespectful.
Here’s what everyone had to say about it on social media:
If we had a media department worthy of the name they should be right in @btsport face. This advert is an absolute discrace. #biased

@btsport disgusting! It so elitist really. Why don’t Sky & BT get their 6 teams they want and get them to play each other 6 times a year and just piss off!!
