Bluemoon goes into Meltdown

Aah yes....the imaginary rag mates. Yeah, coz that's what we do innit? I'll just ring my City mate and talk to him about money ruining football. You know, just out of the blue like. The sad pricks on there believe em as well. Did you see the Scouse one that lost an argument with his imaginary United friend? It is brilliant.

As Badunk said - 'Imagine being beaten in an argument by someone you invented' :lol:
 
manimanc has actually been reprimanded on Bluemoon for posting too many quotes from RedCafe. Classic.

Fake, City fans don't have phones. They use smoke from fires to signal one another. One fire for "rag", two fires for "cnut".

Three puffs of smoke for 'flower', two long-one short for 'a rag mate i met down the Trafford Centre'.

And if it's one continuous puff of smoke then that means "I've just set fire to my neighbour's Citroen".
 
I'd be content and die happy if I knew he got banned from Bluemoon after being banned on here. The ultimate meltdown :lol:
 
The imaginary Manc/rag mates have been shelved, it's now all about who can make up the best story of encounters with imaginary rag shop assistants! :wenger:

I went into Timpson's to get a couple of keys cut this afternoon, wearing my City jacket.

Anyway, while the female assistant was checking the keys, her male colleague started. "You want to get a proper top."

"Nothing wrong with this one," l replied, immediately on rag alert.

After repeating the crap about the top a couple of times, he then changed tack, "You should get a proper logo" - yep, logo - "on it," and picked up a rag badge they had on sale, confirming my suspicions.

After telling him I was quite happy with the badge on my coat and informing him that City is the only team in Manchester, he asked where we were in the League.

"Top," I replied flatly and went to speak to the woman. "Can I leave them with you and pick them up later?"

"Yeah, you don't want to listen to him waffling on do you?" she replied.

A few years back I went into a shop (cant recall what it was) with the intention of buying an item there and the rag behind the counter made some general comment about my jacket as I walked in and I simply turned and said ''have a good day now, you just lost yourself a sale'' and walked out.
I don't (or didn't when in Manchester) knowingly give my money to brash rag businesses.

I read on and it was followed by this weird one

I attended one such ''panel'' meeting.
This was (admittedly) about 8 years ago but doubt it has changed. Barclays were the meeters and greeters at some gentleman's club in London on a Friday lunchtime. The 4 international managers were invited (Sanchez and Venables who was England assistant) turned up. Someone from the PFA, Managers association (Frank Clark who I had to sit next to!) loads of journos (Harry Harris, Patrick Barclay etc), John Motson, a few bods from Sky (no idea who) Brazil failed to attend, which was strange seeing as what followed..... and me (representing the FSF)

So the champagne reception was followed with a stick yer hands up vote. Names of the player of the month nominees were read out with a few stats and any other nominations asked for. Each name read out and a show of hands.... Ronaldo won.
Same again for manager of the month..... Bacon won. (what annoyed me is the results weren't given for a week, should have gone to Bet Fred and ripped him off....)

There then followed a 5 course meal with wine, beer, brandy, cigars..... the journo's all had their noses in the trough and when I passed on the cigars, was nudged and told to reconsider.... and pass it on......
Motson was smashed by the end of it.... next day there he was at Anfield doing the commentary!

They're not even willing to have a bit of banter with rival fans? That's one of the best bits of being a football fan. What a bunch of precious spackers.

I meet City fans around town all the time. They say stuff. I have a sense of humour, so I say stuff back and we laugh it off. The end.
 
Don't city fans claim that all city fans come from Manchester and there are no United fans in Manchester? That's a hell of a commute to go buy groceries.
 
Unbelievable.

I mean not only are they making up pretend encounters with make believe rival supporting shop assistants, they also lack the imagination to make those pretend encounters anything other than entirely mundane and uninteresting.

I wonder what's next? Making up stories about not putting "kind regards" at the end of an email at work because the recipient is a "rag".
Maybe even a little anecdote about walking out of a gay bar because the ambient lighting was red and not blue, and he literally is not going to be buggered to be buggered in rag colours.

Even when they make stuff up, they still come across as complete tools.

:lol:

The shop assistant stories are truly riveting.
"Told him I was from Manchester and he goes; 'I thought so"
As an aside, I was getting some keys cut in Stratford in London (where I live for Uni).

Picked up a City key ring and the assistant struck up a conversation about football. He was an Arsenal fan.

He said 'We don't get many of your lot down here. Where are you from?'

Told him I was from Manchester and he goes; 'I thought so. The only people who look at the City key-rings are Northerners. Get loads of United fans, though. The only reason we keep those keyrings in stock is because the owners are City fans from Manchester. They're from Wythenshaw and have season tickets.'

So you'd think the owners would keep an eye out for vermin when looking for employees

It amazes me how they seem to remember every word of every conversation with every "rag" they talk to. I can just imagine them writing it in a little blue diary under their pillows...

You could make so much money writing The Diary of Bertie Magoo -- Bitter Blue in the style of Bridget Jones.

October 18
Rags encountered --3

I went to Lidl in Stockport, and I must explain I'm not actually from Stockport, I'm city centre Manc born and bred, but my aunt had this hairnet crisis and lots of ins and outs, so I'm there temporarily.
But anyway, I met an old rag mate in Lidl. He stood there looking at a bag of frozen peas. I said 'Hi, Dave.'
He thought he could blank me, but I told him that he couldn't understand the beauty of Niall Quinn's disco pants.
Typical rag.

It's funny that every second story is them proving how long they've supported City or our what part of Manchester they're from. Why do they care so much to inform people of that?

Up until a couple of years ago it was the only way they felt they could outdo us. Although, they did have a wider pitch and taller corner flags than us.

"I went for a medical the other day. Doctor told me my red blood cell count was low. I told him of course it was. He said I should eat more red meat. I said "feck off you rag cnut" and left. Getting myself a new doctor after that."
