fuck off.



Just thinking the other day. How many times did you lot hear again the term: Big FOUR, after City became huge in the Premiership? And in the last 4 years, only once the first four places had another team than rags, chelski, arse and us.

I saw the ad for the first time tonight and felt exactly like you do after watching it. Disgraceful. You'd think that an English broadcaster would be hoping that we do well in Europe but the knives are clearly out and you get the distinct impression that they can't wait for us to get knocked out. You can guarantee that if it was the dippers or the rags in our position the ad would only show the goals that they had scored and would be filled with hope and inspiration

You dont hear Big 4...but I started seeing "Top 7" last season. The way that shower of cunts are going it'll be "Top half" except for the bottom three

Full on United love-in on SKY all weekend.

And of course Rio 'I make a dick of myself on Twitter every day' got upset about Brian Kidd celebrating. Does he even know Kiddo played for City? Does he even know he has worked for us for years?

Does the cunt even know Utd have got rid of him?

Atmosphere was excellent. We need to pretend the opposition are the rags every week to invoke that passion from the crowd.

Wow. Not one mention of the ref having the worst performance of any ref this season... in fact, quite the opposite.

Have a read of this little gem - he's screaming out for fa action.

It's hard to not get annoyed at but the the likes of Sky aren't interested in promoting the English team, they're there to promote their 'Dream Teams'. The whole aim of that advert, and similar ones to it, are to entice the Rag & Dippers hoards in, increasing the viewing figures by pampering to the masses.

Always remember, Sky and the Rags have walked hand-in-hand since the the dawn of the PL and it's those 2 who've perpetuated the myth that the Dippers are, and have been, a real big hitter in the PL years. There is only one reason for this and that's down to how many plastics they have worldwide, nothing more.

Oh look, there it is again, 'The Pressure On' advert that is not meant for the City fan. How could it be?

You did see who wrote the article though?!!! One of the worst lowlifes on the planet when it comes to shit stirring and trying to sensationalise and create a shit storm out of nothing. Adrian Durham doesn't warrant any airtime, he is a egomaniac who thinks he can spout venom against all premier league teams because he supports Peterborough.

It's a pity that there was no mention of Shrek's continual attempts to brow-beat referees during every game, or the way that the Scum have done this for years and the way that FergusScum made this into a way of footballing life at that deplorable and despicable Club.

Joe Hart was just an easy target for such a journalistic outburst but, at least, the referee couldn't claim he didn't see it, which limits the possibility of any retrospective action.

This.

He's a loudmouth shock-jock on a pissant radio station aimed at White Van Men and the under 12s - tabloid, broken Britain radio for want of a better word. Nothing he has to say is of any interest of relevance.

I heard that Butthead has the worse record for a Rag manager since 1986, even eclipsing Moyes after 5 times the spend. Funny though, that Pellers is the one under pressure after winning a double and sat nicely in the PL even after a lacklustre start.

How things are so different in the eyes of the media. Where are the Rags sat in the league?

Thinking about it, they could've been only a couple of points behind us if they'd have beaten us. That bloody word, so short but so far from the truth.

Well, you've always got the daily mail...

Not a slanderous piece, but all connected to the latest push.
