Rag post of the day

[Cikku]

This whole thing has become so petty and pedantic. It has already been explained that the only European football news obtained in Australia during the 50's and 60's was from England, nothing substantial came through from anywhere else until the 80's. Superga was a tragedy that must never be forgotten by football fans, the point is that Munich is what grabbed the attention of young football fans in the late 50's irrespective of whether it was "a global marketing campaign" by the club or not. People never saw it that way which is why Manchester United became the focus of anyone who had an interest in English football.

Looking back on history, that event may well have been the worst thing that could have possibly happened to Manchester City because it made the club almost irrelevant in the eyes of world football when compared to the dramatic years experienced by their cross town neighbors. The brief re-emergence of City in the late 60's and early 70's was not sustained long enough to overcome the European icon that United had become hence the bitterness that has existed at City until this very day.

Is that a little harsh? Quite possibly, but it's also very true.

You love this site don't you, just can't keep away!

Why don't you switch sides and become a blue seeing as you like talking about 'Citeh' so much?

Think about it, the club you pretend to support has an aging squad, a senile manager (how much did he pay for that tramp!?) no money and fuck all coming through the youth team. The clock is ticking my friend, and I get the impression that you won't be able to cope with 'supporting' a club that isn't successful!

Citeh (as you call us) are the future, if you want to carry on with your glory hunting ways now is the time to switch your allegiances. You already know lots about our club and, if you change now, you can claim you supported us when we had won nothing like you do with the scum.

Welcome Blue Brother!

Actually if you were living here, you would have noticed how Utd pretty much invented football hooliganism because they couldn't live with the fact tht City had a better team on the pitch. Typical one eyed rag bullshit.

People do tend to resent success & City will suffer from that as it comes to us, but people mainly hate Utd because your're a bunch of cunts so don't worry, even when we steam past you, people like yourself, peddling your smug 'my dad is bigger than your dad' crap, will still ensure that at least, even if you went 50 years without winning a trophy & got gates of 10,000, everybody will still hate you. The reason being; you deserve it.

FC Utd are doing a good job of taking that attitude to the lower leagues & are suitably despised by most others above & below them.

There can only be one answer that you guys understand... -:)

I really couldnt have put it better myself

We've heard them all ten thousand times.

Frank - Are you going to engage in conversation, answer some of the questions you have been asked and add something of quality to this site or are you going to continue with your infantile behaviour?

I would be grateful if you could break your habit of ignoring questions and give me an answer.

Ta

[Sister of fu]

that there's some kind of magic that means Utd are unique & nobody can ever compare to them

Guess what Ted Hughes, you hit the nail right on the head. No English team can!

So Liverpool don't then you bell end??

[Beefymcfc]

I nominate Cikku for Honorary Blue membership, and I'll even sort him a ticket if he can get himself over for a game.

You know he wants to, and by the time he makes it across, he will be another fully fledged City Glory Hunter. I wonder if he's been there before?

This bit, I don't know, kind of proves the point about milking Munich Air disaster. You actually seem HAPPY that your club built their success on pile of dead bodies on Munich runway. Even gloating how it "turned us into bitters".

There also lies the difference in how your glory hunting supporters and our supporters see these things. You people seem to think that we have been particularily envious of your position in world football limelight that Munich Air Disaster got you. Now I'm not going to lie, lack of success hurts and sure we would've liked achieve similar success that you have. But I am happy that no City players have died in tragic circumstances. I much prefer to be "irrelevant in the eyes of world football" than see our lads die.

In fact, over the years it seems to me that OUR set of supporters have shown more respect to actual dead people on that disaster than yours have. We actually lost one of our own there as well.

Edit. Also one thing that I always find hilarious is the fact that rags never see any irony in calling our Club "Citeh".

[Dameerto]

...Some Rags are OK, but some, like this Cikku (what does that stand for by the way?) just go to prove that a lot of their support aren't there for the club but to follow a club just to bask in the reflected light...

Is it Spanish for 'Little Penis'?

Let's not resort to name calling eh ;-)

[Original Dub]

So this rag based his support on a load of dead bodies and comic books?

Excellent.

Whatever about the past since the sky money came in, replacing Scholes, Giggs, VDS and Ferdinand with no money is going to be a little bit difficult.

You will finish outside the top four in the next 3 years mark my words and those gentlemen that bleed your club at every given opportunity will continue to do so and what will happen then?

I think we all know this game is now built on money and has been for some time.

Game over.

[Beefymcfc]

I wonder if we'll here the 'No Value in the Market' quote this transfer window?

[Blue Blood]

Has that Cikku twat been banned yet?

Why united fans feel the need to come on here and spout their delusional crap is beyond me. Do it on your own forums.

The drunk has already ruled out the possibility of signing anbody in January.

I suppose Rooney took a large part of the transfer kitty and with the likes of Obertan and Bebe coming through, he must think they've got a really stong squad.

Or, it could be that he knows the likes of Pulis and Bruce et al will role over and play dead when they meet them. Read a story saying that as soon as his son was sacked from Preston he recalled United's on-loan players, closely followed by Pulis doing the same. What chance has anybody got with the mafiosa style cartel we have in the leagues? Even the fucking ref's wear Devil Worshipping underwear!

We should look upon what we are now engaged with as a kind of crusade. To storm these corrupt, aged fortresses and bring down this oppressive old-boys regime. It will be a beautiful thing brothers.

The Crusades! Sounds good to me.

Well, I was going to include the word "Jihad" for the sake of cultural equality, but I thought it might be taken the wrong way.
