What the fuc does FMTWFF mean?

I googled it and the only two proper results I got were you posting FMTWFF on here?

I trust in Pep.

Genius he probably isn't but he's no mug either.

I hope we smash it next year, a couple of decent signings and we could be unstoppable, shut the critics up.

Ha, I wondered the same thing some time ago and googled it with the same results as you got now.

Fuck Me That Was Fucking Funny. It was coined by some poster on here.

And it was, btw.

I think that was effort to make him a nickname. Though it's not really catchy is it?
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?

No need to moan and make up shit. We're playing in a fucking derby and everyone needs to get behind the team and whoever is selected.

I don't rate him. He needs a one- or two-horse league and to be able to buy up the very best players. That's not a 'manager'; that's a man with a silver platter up his arse.

No doubt he has made some very bad calls this season. A top class manager makes his team greater than the sum of its parts,he hasn't done that this season-not even close. He may learn from his mistakes and I'm sure he will be backed to the hilt on transfers this summer, but if there isn't a vast improvement come this time next year serious questions need to be asked.

I've been as close to death's door as can be, which made me realise that life is too short for anything other than love.

I know these posts are typed in jest, in anger, as knee-jerk reactions - I've been guilty of these myself.
We will prevail no matter what, I know it, and deep down, you know it too, because good triumphs over everything, and the club that we all love, follow and support is the best of the best; today, tomorrow and forever.

Ain't never gonna be a club as awesome as City, win or lose or win or win, and that's a fact!
I'm aware of the main issues: Pep's decisions, gross official and media bias, and an ageing squad.

All I'm saying is, always stop to see the bigger picture; each one of us once arrived as babies, and each one of us will leave as precious souls.
Love. Just LOVE!
Look forward to the future because it's great to be alive; it's great to be part of the beating heart that is MCFC.

Tim

PS. Gee, this is the most kumbaya post I've ever written (I know, Carl)
PS2. OD, I think that Phips doesn't intend to rub us the wrong way, he's just being Phips - love him (think about it ;))
PS3. Thanks NT and Notts for the well-wishes; well in Nottsblue - I love the colour, it suits you, so proud of you (I hope NT is next), don't ever change (except to orange) - hugs ;)
PS4. Where in the blazers is Gringo/DM? I didn't see him when I took a peek on the other side, and he'd only be up, not down, the ol' pumpkin ;)
PS5. I'm straight, but I think that GJ is a total dish in both skills and looks, and many of you fellas secretly think so too! The kid radiates legend already for me (ek kan nie wag nie)
PS6. Sorry for leaving so abruptly, I've been checking in intermittently; well done to TB for winning the prediction title in May 2016, and thanks PrezIke for the sublime finale:)))
PS7. Bless the officials and the media for their efforts; if they don't let us in through the front door, there's also the back door, the windows, the chimney, the letterbox, the airvents....

Welcome back mate, hope you're doing well.

And there will be. What has annoyed me is that it's as if Pep brought this on himself. We werent great at times but we were flying, that was until he started downplaying the teams achievements and forecasting a downturn. His formations, players and the Premier League duly obliged. Why he did it, i don't know, but if he was trying to play mind games, he truly failed.

In truth, he's probably just about living up to where i thought the team would be but that was without having the 'Mighty Pep' in charge. My expectations then were a little higher but with the caveat that without a change to the fullback issue, he wouldn't make much headway; another year older, and all that.

I suppose i expected more, but then again, i wasn't expecting the blatant cheating that the powers that be have provided.

I'm pretty sure Blind is a rag and with your mystic meg powers indicated he will score in the derby with some shite shot. Why not say something postive and support the team who's next match happens to be the derby instead of writing utter drivel, made up drivel at that.
