I remember him kicking the shit out of rags as a hero in blue.


Do you remember him lifting that European Cup trophy as well?

Yes, & scoring v the rags for us some years later.

Brian Kidd was fucking tremendous; a warrior for City. If Dzeko had even 20% of the balls Kiddo had in a blue shirt, he would score 50 goals a season for us. He even played at cenre back for us v people like Leeds. Imagine Dzeko doing that ?

If he's counted as a rag, then I hope we sign many more, as he put twice as much heart into playing for City as anyone I've watched this season.

I remember him winning the first and only cup and first and only league title in my lifetime as assistant manager.

I like him, I'd love to have a beer with him - but then he's very likeable. V useful to keep on imho, even if only to ease transition for the new manager, like a handover I guess, with a view to proving his worth to the new boss.

Platt is a local rag, constantly looks like an egg travelling at speed, and doesn't seem to exactly exude charisma. Although I've chatted to him myself, and found him pleasant enough/reasonably personable, I wouldn't want to share a pint with him. He has footy pedigree, is Bob's mate, and speaks fluent Italian. He's like a bespoke Mancini right hand man.

So if you meant the question purely with a view to who should we keep, blatantly Kiddo, all the way. Platt will slither after Mancini like Renfield.

If you meant in a fight, I'd still back Kiddo. I'd even join in if we was losing.


you two would make hash browns of Platt wouldn't you tough guy?

A rag is a rag is a rag.

.
Tevez is also a former Rag yet he's played a massive part in our development as a club. In his first two seasons for us he was arguably one of the very best in the world. So he played for the Rags, so what? Did you not celebrate his goals for us, did you not sing his name when he was banging them in?
Just because someone has been associated with them doesn't mean they can't do a job for us aswell.
I'd like to hear your response without you resorting to childish insults or name calling.


Of course I cheer his goals but we are talking about yet another rag. Rag that was golfing somewhere when our lads were pushing through 38 games to win the title.

A rag is a rag is a rag.
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?

Just to make it clear, if I had to choose with two rags in Kidd and Platt, I'd take Kidd in a heart beat. Hopefully there will be no more rags coming in ever,

I've always been horrified at the idea of Rooney signing for City, but I'm starting to think the comedy value could outweigh the negative..

I find it odd a Finn living in a lighthouse is calling a local lad who played for us and was part of the management team to deliver us a cup win and league title a 'rag twat'

Don't think many people in the ghetto have got their own tennis court tbh.
What kind of ghetto did you have in mind btw? Polish? Jewish? African-American?
