Not Bluemoon but City fans on Twitter raging at their club's account because it promoted the fact that if fans in the UK want to watch tonight's game they can do so on MUTV.

They're so pathetic. Last season we had 78 yellows and 2 reds compared to their 71 and 4 and suddenly we're hatchet merchants who try and break everyone's legs.
But Fellaini, and .... Keane
I bet they still tell their kids the story of Keane ending Haaland's career at night, even though it's not true.
This is comical excellence stuff.. Paddy C could make some of them toss their TV out of the window.
David, my post seems to have been misunderstood to a large extent, possibly my inarticulate English. The post I replied to was derogatory toward City fans as a result of posts on Red Cafe that were selective quotes from Blue Moon. I made the point that anyone could quote another forum and make the posters look like idiots. There are many embarrassing posters here, namco, cybersomething, the bloke from Norway who is a 'huge' Utd fan and the one with charlton and best in his username for example. I know that Charlton has a couple of forums with widely digressing views but does that mean Card fans are poor or non-Card fans are idiots?
I would agree that some City fans have a certain sense of paranoia. I think there is a degree of justification for this based on the media's desire to appeal to as much of the public as possible (that being Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal fans..etc). BT Sport's abysmal coverage of City in the Champions League being a good example but recent articles in the Mirror and Mail being more contemporary examples. Whether the feeling will change, who knows but when your club is often portrayed as some sort of malign outsider then it seems natural to assume the role of an outsider.
Your final sentence is truly preposterous. Every single City fan is completely comfortable in their skin and quite happy with their club's history. Manchester City have represented the blue half of Manchester for nearly 150 years. The club has had periods of success and periods of decline. History does not equate to trophies. I loved the club as much when I watched them at Wycombe and Luton in Division two (and Charlton in the second tier I think), as I do now. Presumably, you are jealous of Crystal Palace in the PL and Millwall in the Championship based on that statement and feel that Palace and Millwall are superior clubs?
Blue Moon is a fan's forum. It represents a section of the support. Its members largely go to the games or come from Manchester and went to games before they moved elsewhere. Yes, there are a lot of vitriolic posts toward United. Do you expect anything else?
And the first response to his comment.http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.../man-city-transfer-sanchez-guardiola-13356920
Read the first comment,from big Ian on this article..I know this isn't off blue moon,but I thought it was refreshingly honest. I was thinking earlier today exactly how obscene Guardiola is,basically spending and buying,all the while trying to hide behind the facade of a master tactician .. big fraud and I think in a few years it's gonna end in rivers of tears for city.
If guardiola fails after this outlay(January to come yet)then he has to be finished. .
I smell Rag
I know. I chuckled. By the looks of it the lone voice...And the first response to his comment.
I had a bigger impact on Europe when i was in Greece for two weeks back in 09
City fans boo the champions league anthem? Just... why?people tune in to watch city and they get a chorus of boos for the CL anthem, still after the new messiah pep told them to get over it, but they chose not to. Like you say, why would that endear people to city as a new entity? Their own fans are apathetic, why would anyone else big them up
Because they believe that UEFA is against themCity fans boo the champions league anthem? Just... why?
And some people still question that there's an inferiority complexBecause they believe that UEFA is against them
It's a bit more complex than that.Because they believe that UEFA is against them
It's a bit more complex than that.
Yeah, there are some stupid fans who boo the Champions' League anthem because they think group stage draws are somehow rigged against us and that UEFA referees seek to knock us out. Some people booing it do so because of high ticket prices and general corruption within the organisation.
The majority, however, have always jeered the anthem since the infamous game vs. CSKA Moscow where, because of CSKA Moscow's offence, we were ordered to play the game behind closed doors two weeks before the game was due to take place. Despite this, CSKA had 200 fans inside the ground.
To make matters worse, UEFA then refused to reimburse any City fans who'd bought tickets and booked hotels/flights for the game, despite it being announced at such short notice that the game would be played behind closed doors.
The meaning behind the booing has become blurred, and I don't bother with the booing or chanting anymore, but there's more reasons than just "City fans are small time and think UEFA hate them."
I'd rather give foreplay to a sheep than watch RagTV. i dismissed the 'out of touch with the fans' thread as nonsense ... now i'm starting to wonder ...
Anyone who pays for ragtv should hang their heads in shame.
I've just subscribed to Rag TV.
I'm looking forward to hearing Paddy Crerand, Lou Macari, Dwight York and Brian Robson giving an unbiased pundits review of the game. And Phil Neville and Ryan Giggs commentating on the game itself.
I'd rather boil my bollocks in a deep fat fryer
Slag the club off all season and then subscribe to MUTV in the summer.
Post modern supporting.
I'd rather fart in my boss his face.
It it's even more tragic that City doesn't broadcast it on City TV, making "fans" like you acting as desperate as a Cityfan subscribing to ... wait a minute?!
Do they offer MUTV in Manchester? Or is it only available in London?
Can we chip in together and buy that bloke a deep fat fryer?They're in a rage over the fact they've been told to watch the City-United friendly on MUTV.

some of the points were justified to be miffed with at the time. Not to keep up the vendetta though, even their own manager told them to grow up. Uefa, Fergie, Gill, the FA etc are not to blame for the embarrasing support in number and voice of their team people witness each time theres a big live game at etihadI admit my view may be tainted by the City fans I know. Although frankly all of those bar high ticket prices (I am not sure how much UEFA has to do with that), seem completely pointless to boo about. Whilst I get the frustration at the CSKA thing, why didn't City just reimburse you, arguably not their fault in any way but it would have been the generous thing to do. Hardly short of a few bob, but I guess no club would do that nowadays
He would rather commit beastility than watch our club channel...gosh I know they are a lunatic lot but this takes the cake. And you wonder why this world is so screwed up.
To be fair it probably wouldn't be his first time, so it's probably not that big a deal to him.
they may be bitter, but they are fecking hilariousThey're in a rage over the fact they've been told to watch the City-United friendly on MUTV.

Very worried about this game. They will target our top players and we could have several long term injuries by the end
wondering how many of our players we'll see again in April once their broken legs have healed.
Basically given the Rags 90 minutes with no repercussions to scupper our season.
I'm very worried about this tie they're just going to kick the living daylights out of us especially if we decide to play them off the park as usual.

Last six derbies, they've lost three and won one.
