Why did you ask then?
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Exactly. I thought that was pretty straight forward and simple.

Who are Blues in current squad? Nedum is the only one I know of.


If you accept that managers and players are only loyal to that club when their wages are being paid, why did you all have such a problem with hughes being an ex rag in the first place? Surely, by the same argument as soon as united stop paying his wages, they mean nothing to him.

To get an answer? Don't agree with your thoughts in the answer but am not in the right frame of mind to type sensibly or explain my thoughts, ok? We're all pissed off and I'm not gonna vent on fellow blues on here

Nobody biting today Edge? I'm not in the mood for you either...

As for topic - Of course Hughes is a blue. As long as he is the manager of this club he is a blue.

Someone also mentioned that "he never will be".

So that means Taggart isn't a red? Ridiculous statement. If hughes, as expected, wins the league and several cups he will be remembered forever at this club. and that, in my book, makes him a legend blue without a doubt.

It's not as if stating Mourinho is the man for us is an outlandish opinion is it?

Nope, just a damn good manager.

True but that will all change if they start winning stuff. Most will develop a lifelong attachment to the club & it'll become their club. Hughes may end up the same if he finds it becomes his 'home.' Ferguson wasn't a rag but he became one, same as Scholes, Cantona, Busby etc did. Other players like Hughes, Ince etc seemed to leave it all behind as soon as they left the club. To each his own.

It's quite possible that Hughes will fall in love with City, it's happened to many players & fans who previously had no affinity for the club & it will happen again. If it's only possible to be 'born' blue then half the people on here don't qualify as blues. I don't subscribe to that opinion. I'll welcome anyone who loves the club. If Hughes fails & leaves in bitterness so be it. If he falls in love with the world's greatest club; who can blame him?


In my above post to Craig I said more or less the same. It's very much possible to grow into being a Blue even in adult age like happened with Goat and Rosler. But for Hughes there would be long long way to go. But when some munich twat spits on me by saying that my 26 year old makes me lesser Blue than Hughes one year in job with the Club it makes me think that priorities or some people aren't quite in order. It also makes me wonder whether he is suffering from so called "Andrew Davies syndrome" of having watched Hughes in Stretford End and then finding City later for one reason or another.

Scholes is a prime example of my point by the way. He plays for rags and is hero there but he is most certainly Oldham and has never hidden that, taking his kids regularily to Latics games. Busby, who knows, he was from Scotland anyway. Ferguson has according biography been Rangers supporter and apparently still is at least to some extent.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I've read an interview where he clearly states that he grew into supporting united eversince he joined their youth team. Some people were claiming he was Chelsea. Again, anywhichway he isn't (Sky) Blue.

My MAIN reasons for being against Hughes appointment was never about him being (ex?) Rag though. That was just cherry on top of the cake. It was just easier for people to argue against by saying so.

Don't panic. It is just one game. No need to start pointing fingers and wanting change. Surely you can see the progress we are making?

Mate, Andrew Davies could make progress with the team we have this year compared to last year.

It's possible to have a local team you grew up with & end up in love with another club though. Hughes is certainly giving the impression of someone who's getting attached to the place. I hope he eventually acheives the transition, it'll mean we win things on the way!

We need to kick that cunt Hughes out the club and bring in a real leader of men.

Let's hope we will have that discussion in depth one day as it would indeed mean that we've had loads of gloryladden years behind us by then. But there is a long long road to go.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
