The Divide Between Fans

[MARKMAKAVELI]

Exactly John, it basically reads:

"Me and all the other Hughes Outers are happy with the new manager therefore everyone should be happy".

sorry mate but bad timing

IT IS TRUE THOUGH, BAD TIMING OR NOT.

TIME WILL TELL WETHER OR NOT MANCINI IS THE MAN TO TAKE US FORWARD BUT I DONT THINK ANYONE CAN ARGUE AGAINST HUGHES BEING SACKED

Don't post that often, just peruse daily but this post is a fucking laugh. It's taken until the 20th December but this surely must be the fucking half wit quote of the year!!......While all may not have been rosy I can think of many many reasons why I could argue against it....OR SHOULD THAT BE ARGUE AGAINST IT?

Yeah I agree....apart from the fact that your quoting skills aren't up to much and you've made that look as if WW said it and I THINK IT'S CLEAR THAT IT WAS OLDSHOUTYBOLLOCKS ;-)

You're right mate, as I said don't post that often and quoting skills are not exactly up to scratch. Can't argue with that at all!

So now it suits you to get behind the manager you will do and you will encourage everyone else to. Thanks for this.

Nice one.

I know Mark, unbelievable isn't it? The morons on this site have illuminated themselves in immaculate unimaginable glowing golden star lined showers of uncontrollable, myth building, verbal super shite today. Quite breathtaking. Truly. Embarrassing. Most certainly. The hypocrisy is as laughable as it is tragic. I never thought i'd see so many fellow blues so happy at, what to any normal functioning human is another publicly embarrassing period of instability. And then after all the months of their constant boring, monotonous, bullshit they tell everybody else, that NOW its time for all fans to get together and not be divided?

To those of you who know who they are... I support my team, whoever is in charge. I'm a City fan...end of. Don't tell me when and when not get get behind the team because it suits your sad little 'anti-whatever the fuck little cock' agenda you've got going on. I dont give a shit.

I hope Mancini is a success! obviously! Does that need a thread to reinforce this point? A thread to say get behind the team??? Not for those who are ALWAYS behind the team. This thread to me appears only to serve a purpose for the morons who endorse it, because could it be that the despicable way in which they have supported their team over the last year has got them questioning their own support?

You dont need to tell me to support the City team and management in place for the Stoke game, maybe you need to tell yourselves though.

[john68]

What a superbly honest rant...

another translation of the original could be..."NOW THAT WE'RE HAPPY, YOU MUST BE TOO"..how dare you demand that.

[Chopper]

Quad biking maybe?

SCOOOOOTER RAAAALLLY

[Niall Quinns Discopants]

KK,
You know that I have massive respect for you as a person and am proud to have you as a pal.
That said...your original post was absolute BULLSHIT!!!!

First of all...Hughes did NOT divide fans...it was the attitude of impatience and intolerance of the fans themselves that divided fans. To accuse Hughes of causing division or even the appointment of Hughes as causing division is to abnegate responsibility for your own decisions.

Secondly, for some one who never accepted Hughes from day 1 to now demand that now he has gone, we should all get behind our new manager, is insulting to say the least.
When Sven was sacked, there was no thought about all pulling together in support of Hughes. You never offered Hughes any support at all.

while I agree to some extent about the second point, I couldn't disagree more about the first one.

Appointing former rag superhero was as stupid move as any to begin with and showed Cook's complete inability to understand football supporters. Many would take on him eventually but some never. Why even go there with manager appointment as there were lot of other good managers out there even then.

Deep down everyone knew that from the beginning.

Why this all should be taken on on Robbie Manc though? What has he done to anyone. It wasn't his fault Hughes was sacked. If you want to vent your anger, direct it on Cook who was main culprit on both hiring and firing Hughes.

Regarding people being smug about Hughes getting the boot. Well I don't feel smug one bit. Like I said, I would've been happy to see him prove me wrong as it would've mean we are successful. Despite what some people would have you believe, that's the way I feel deep down.

I hope we as a club have learned from this episode and same mistakes will not be repeated in future.

[Vhero]

Never before have I witnessed one person creating such a divide between City fans as hughes did. There never seemed to be a gray area where he was concerned, you were either with him (happy-clapper) or against him (hughes-hater) and the 2 camps were at each others throats from the start.

Of course we will always disagree on certain topics regarding our beloved club but I hope to never again witness the polarization caused by hughes' appointment.

Now can we all please learn to live with the fact that hughes has gone, get behind Mancini and work towards one common theme.

Thank you and Merry Christmas :o)

I agree with this 100% mate it's what pissed me off the most about the Hughes regime and glad its over for that reason not for footballing reasons in which I wont talk about my opinions.

No, just some of them like you and others on here that can't forget the past. I'm all for rivalry and friendly banter with United, but some people take it too far. If they play well and win the league, I'll be happy for them. Some of you have so much bitterness and child-like behaviour towards anything United that it is embarassing.

Sorry Mark I don't agree with the "if they win the league bit" but I admire your honesty, what fucking wound me up up was the fact that so many City fans had an agenda about Hughes from day 1 because of his past. To me that was pathetic and short sighted bitterness, some of the bollox spouted by fans was anti City because to me the Manager, along with the players are City.......what won't happen is the vitriolic divide that we've had on here in the future because I think all fans will be pulling in the right direction....at last.

[Chopper]

Bollox.

What had people confused was a manager with limited success being appointed to guide us through Europe. Based on CVs I felt that Sven had a better chance. I didnt see any difference between Hughes, Bruce, Fat Sam, or Souness, and I dont see one now. We had a manager who paid ebay prices and sealed his fate by getting cunted by twitchy. Its done, if Mancini fucks up Ill want him gone too. No hidden agenda here I like wins.

???? Sorry mate but I was just reiterating what certain folks said on here about their thoughts on Hughes....'twas in black and white.

Chill the fucl out! I expect this sort of shit from some of the other light-blues on here but expected better from you.

The point of this thread is that the appointment of hughes divided our fans, are you seriously denying that happened??

I started a thread asking for City fans to get along with each other and certain knob-heads have reacted by having a go!

Here's some breaking news for you, I didn't sack hughes!! There you go, it wasn't me who sacked your precious Sparky so back the fuck off!

He has gone, if you can't cope with reality then seek help rather than having a pop at somebody who is trying to stop so many arguments between fans.

You can't just wave a wand and expect people who have had "other knobheads" winding them up and generally spreading disharmony for 18 months to be all cheerful and feel well disposed to those "other knobheads" all of a sudden.

I don't want to be at the throats of my fellow blues and I'm sure that come the end of the week harmony will have returned to a great extent but you are deluded to think that we'll all just return to getting along great when most of "us" are (to whatever extent...) disappointed in the events of yesterday.

And some of the threads, like this one, were ill-timed IMO (and as many others have also pointed out).

I'm not looking to have a row.....I'm bored of arguing on here. But you need to look at things from the perspective of "certain knob-heads" rather than just your own.

Ant, there are some people who have just used this thread as a vehicle to start more petty arguments. I started this thread as a genuine attempt to reduce the disharmony between blues. I don't agree that it was badly timed, in fact I can't see when else a thread such as this should have been started?

Some of the happy-clappers can't cope with the truth of the matter so are continuing to lash out. Hopefully somebody will give them a cuddle soon and they join us here in the real world and we can all get along.

[MARKMAKAVELI]

KK you have missed our points entirely, just as most of the Hughes Out brigade did throughout the whole saga.

I'm done with this thread now, at least it's over.

No I haven't. It is you and the other happy-clappers who have deliberately missed the point of this whole thread and turned it into more petty arguments. I hope you are very proud.

"You can't get passed the fact he was a rag" is pretty much the mantra from the clappers for the last 18 months. Blackburn were a bullying side, couldn't win away from home, he had won nothing as a manager and never managed anything as large as what he was asked to do in this job. Add to that putting together a £60M defence that can't defend and thoroughly abject displays against relegation candidate teams and you have your answer, but none of those points were addressed with anything more than the "more time" argument and when no-one was buying that it was back to him being a rag as the reason.

So when you think people are missing your points, I think maybe you should try looking at it from a different point of view instead of convincing yourself you are right and everyone else is missing the point.
