Pat Connor, Manchester United fan at Sunderland: I’m 74 now and have watched United all my life, but in all that time, I have never seen anything as despicable as the behaviour of the Sunderland fans when City scored. They were all singing City songs and doing the ‘Poznan’ at the end. I just thought it was disgusting, especially as we have given them about five or six players in recent seasons. The feeling I had at the end of the game was that I just wanted United to hammer Sunderland whenever they play them again.
I wonder why Sunderland fans aren't so incredibly grateful at being permitted to hand over all that money for o'shea, richardson, bardsley, campbell et al. After all they've really set the Premier League on fire and shot Sunderland to trophy after trophy.
