True!
According to some Ned was born wearing a City shirt in Warri, Nigeria.
Regardless of where Ned was born I don't think anybody could claim that he isn't a Blue.


He's a blue based on what my friend? Genuine question. Just because he came from the academy?
Would a true blue go on national TV at the end of the season and spit his dummy out about the clubs current manager? Claiming that certain players would have had a chance with their national squads had it not been for that particular manager? Knowing that this would most likely be detrimental to the club, the club who has stuck by him through all his injuries, and still come out with it??
He supported the club as a lad. That makes him a Blue in my book.

Ned is deffo a Blue. No doubt about that, but there is a huge difference between him and Ireland, whose idol was Roy Cunt.

Can't disagree with Fidler on this one. Ireland has stated that he models his game to k@/%e and that his all time favourite player is Cuntona.
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?

At the end of the day neither is good enough now - potential or not - to play in the top 4. That's all that matters.

You must not pay much attention to the OS cause there was an excellent series of videos following Ned around Manchester last season. Anyone who saw them knows how blue he is.

You carry on disrespecting one of our own though by all means.

Disrespecting him? HAHA why you making it out like I've just pissed on his kids on Christmas day?
It's funny because anyone can say they supported a club when they were a kid. It's not a big deal. I saw Adam Johnson in a picture where he was wearing a United shirt when he was a kid. Is he a rag bastard??

Milner is a great signing and people really need to get the fuck over Ireland leaving. What has he done to merit all this love?

I don't know. Will you call him one if he says anything slightly negative about the club?

Why would I? I think you're on a losing battle here mate. Go and sit in a corner with your captains armband on.

don't agree with this at all. milner would look very good in a u****d team. he is an excellent signing.

as for ireland, he is a bit barmy, no? not sure about him at all and last season he was unadulterated dogshite. all the bollocks around not playing for ireland (the country) is a bit weird too. he had his moments with us, but not too many. not tracking scholes at coms was appalling and cost us a game and maybe more.

disagree - he'd look like a total cunt in a united shirt ;)

he'd fit into any of the best teams in the country imo. cannot wait to see him turning out for us.

Good deal all-round. I think Milner would enhance any team in the country and I'd like to see Stevie go onto better things.

Win-Win for me.

Apparently the Milner deal may not go through until tomorrow due to a new Academy signing getting on the medical machines first.

Good to see that they are all treated fairly, not just the big-guns.

Milner is clearly a better asset than Ireland in my book - particularly if money is not the major consideration. Stevie Ireland has played well for City but the standards are going up all the time and Ireland does not seem to be mentally able to cope with the newly rarified atmosphere. It is interesting that so many of our Academy guys are good footballers but don't seem to be able to make that final step to be Top Class, one suspects because of confidence and mental strength issues. At the end of the day in any sport these are fundemantal and the only young one that seems to have them in abundance is Joe Hart - Ireland, Richard, Weiss and even Nedum seem to be lacking in this respect = for in these days clubs want instant success and can't live with underachievement in youngsters when in the first team. So Sorry Stevie - I wish you well but you are not mentally tough enough for a team trying to be the best in the World.
