We weren't even playing, and yet still their bitter, deluded and obsessed "fans" bring us up. The sooner those rusty old gates at the Swamp close for the last time, the better.
I think both us and them are bitter, and slighty obsessed if i'm totally honest.
The threads posted last night kinda back that up too.
The difference is, they actually have hate in their souls!
So do I mate...
how can you not
I don't hate them, I more pity them in a way. Apart from the old school reds, the new breed have never been in a position where they have had to look at them in this current light. They are not used to losing and not used to seeing a team so thin on the ground. They sit in their seats, in the pubs and in their armchairs swearing and cursing at anything that's not United related. They don't watch football for football, they watch it for their own self-serving bias, so that they are somehow seen as winners in some misguided reflected glory. Watch them, and watch how they react to another team winning. They don't praise them for a good game, they just try to belittle them in some way, and god forbid if one of the Prem challengers wins a game, they get so angry and irrate, to point that either tears have to flow or a fight may start. Watch them when they are aiming vile abuse to opposition players at the game, or throwing things at them when their backs are turned, that his pure hate and it eminates throughout all areas of the club, from management to fans.
And let's not forget the delusion! They sit in their ivory towers waiting for the next piece of silverware somehow unaware that all these things cost money. They now turn on the owners who have brought them what they craived most, and when they actually get a possible takeover bid, then believe that these 'Red Knights' will not put them in an even worse position than before! Won't the Red Knights have to pay the Glazeiers over the odds to get the club, because let's face it, the Glaziers are not going to walk away from their pot of gold just because the fans say so - and that extra money is going to go into - you guessed it - Debt!
So mate, I don't hate them for that. Yes, I dislike that sort of mentality but it is something that they have to live with, so in my eyes, I think pity is the appropriate word. Maybe this will be the way for many of our new City fans, but for those who have been around the club for longer than say 5 years, I'm sure they will keep the humility and understanding that a proper club breeds.
