Bluemoon goes into Meltdown

Good to see they’re worried about playing us :lol: Someone’s worried we’ll out run them in midfield. Well that to me tells me we’ve improved massively this season if city fans think we’ll out run their team. We’ll be well up for this game and ETH would of watched there game against Southampton and seen what we can do to hurt them but he wouldn’t of got any clues on what they’ll do to us because they was that bad at attacking last night.:lol:
 
They look like a team in regression, not because of Haaland, but because they are getting older, and currently struggling to play 3 competitive games in a week without picking up injuries to key players, and the squad players coming in are not quite at the same standard to keep it all ticking over. De Bruyne doesn't get a rest because they need his creativity, and tonight he was chasing shadows and looking old and fat.

We'll see how it shakes out. They are definitely exhibiting some of the same symptoms as Liverpool, lacking the same energy levels with a lot of older players plus guys who have played so many high-energy matches over the last 4-5 years, then new players in the mix who aren't at the level.

But Liverpool looked like that last festive period and Klopp was able to coax one last 3-4 month run of big performances out of his group last spring before the wheels really came off this year. I wouldn't bet against Guardiola being able to do the same.
 
Listened to a Citeh fan on TalkShite who moaned about the weather. At least I think that was what he said as he had a thick Scottish accent. Odd considering all Citeh fans come from half a square mile of the centre of Manchester according to them. Maybe Grealish had his hair ruined in the rain. The fact is, Guardiola the great Guardiola thought Saints would be a pushover and put on his reserves. Southampton the new Stoke on a wet Wednesday night now. Different take in Saturday and if we do beat them, which is possible, no doubt playing away on a Wednesday will be mentioned.
 

Thats kinda true but not exact, the term came from City giving United their old shirts as opposed to them being actual rags. Both clubs had a great relationship till the 70's with support being regularly shared (ie fans watching City one week, United the next depending on who was home/away). I'm not quite sure where the hostility came from to be honest as the clubs consistently had each others backs till that period.

Heard that. Tbh the guy sounds mentally not right. Talksport shouldn't be making a fool outa people like that, it's the thick cnut called Jackie knuckles :rolleyes: a City fan. Imagine she was your mum...
 
Used to knock about with some Blues back in the late 90s early 2000's. They always said it meant Red, Arrogant Sh**s
I thought it was because we were always heavily favoured by newspapers. As in hogging the headlines all the time. Rag is slang word for newspaper in the UK.

I could be wrong though

Nothing to do with that. Back in the day and we're talking 60s or something, City let United use their kits because we were skint.

Hence, us using their rags. It's childish, pathetic and small-time on the level of singing about Hillsborough, it's so back in time.

Happy to be corrected but pretty sure it's that.

Rules of the United Thread. ( Blue Moon forum - Baby boomers edition)

1) Say the word 'Rag' over and over, like it actually stings our eyes, which it doesn't. Most United fans find it quite endearing. It's like that Monty Python sketch, "We are the knights who say NI."

2) Say something about Munich. Mostly to deflect away from the horrific tragedy, and paint MUFC in a bad light. Completely ignoring the capabilities and finances available to football clubs in the 1950's.

3) Say something about Louis Edwards meat factory circa 1966. (Louis Edwards has been dead 43 years!)

4) Mention the Martin Edwards toilet cubicle rumour. (Martin Edwards retired 22 years ago!)

5) Try to make Sir Alex Ferguson relevant in every post, and not an 82 year old man who has been retired for a decade. "I don't care what they say about his brain operation, he's still running that club from his secret lair inside Mere Golf Club. And he controls all of the VAR decisions."

6) Mention Ryan Giggs/Wayne Rooney shagging habits. Love a bit of tabloid tittle tattle.

7) Act like schoolboys and make up childish and non PC names for players and managers. Camel Gob, Ratboy, Gashford, Slur Alex, Slabhead....yawn.

8) Repeat all of the above for 50 years, even though the majority of their fans under the age of 30, cringe themselves inside out, every time they trot down this laboriously well worn path. Some of them have 50 thousand posts, mostly on the same subject, yes Manchester United. They are riddled with it. It tears them up inside. They never fail to make me laugh, those Berties.

Ah now you mention it that does ring a bell. Think you’re correct

It was the 20s/30s. Not the 60s.
 
“Tent Peg” is an embarrassingly shite attempt at a mocking name. They ought to leave the name calling up to the dippers, they’re better at it. No surprise from Bluemoon though, it might be the lowest IQ forum on the internet.

Yeh at least that lot are quite funny with the names they make up, Ten Months is one of my favourites :lol:
 
It's quite cringe like how is it even supposed to be an insult (ha ha your stadium got blown up ye wankers).

No clue I registered there years ago but couldn't settle to be honest, its how I ended up here. Theres a group who kinda dominate the place who question everyone blueness like non-stop, I'm pretty sure they're the type who when sitting at home and their partners phone beeps accuse them of having an affair with Alex Ferguson, Howard Webb and the ghost of Matt Busby.

Sunday:
Outsider - I think Pep got decision x wrong "Ah so you think Pep made a mistake, shows you're a rag, consider yourself on rag watch now you've exposed yourself as a rag"
Wednesday:
Outsider - I think Pep made the right call with the team, it just didn't happen "ah so you think Pep is a genius when he's clearly screwing us over and sucking up to United, now I know your a rag, you raggy, rag, bacon face whiskey nosed loving raggity, rag, rag. Bert Trautmann bombed the swamp ya rag!".

Gawd knows what they'd have made of Peter Swales!
 
It’s also said that our own fans came up with it

This is kinda true but a play on how its used today. United fans did indeed make rag jokes about themselves in the 1920's (way before the bombing) when the club struggled, but it died off and only came back as a derogatory term by city fans after the bombing. So while United fans were the first to use the term it was in a completely different way and with a different meaning to how our fans took it. Personally its a word I despise.

I’d thought it was similar to self deprecating humour. It’s grand and all when you say it flippantly but someone else saying it is a whole different story. Didn’t know about the bombing aspect though, thanks!

They act like a cult but without any of the style, at least Liverpool fans on rawk are hilarious.

Their obsession with us and Fergie is also oddly perplexing seeing how city wasn’t really a rival back when we dominated it, it just sounds bitter.

Exactly its like one of those things where someone pokes fun at their own weight or stature, its completely different if someone else does it.

It wasn't on rawk but on the BBC, but I saw a Liverpool fan change "Erik ten Hag's" to Erect then Shag's. I did giggle.

Man Utd 2-1 Man City (Rashford)

We've been fecking robbed.

Corrupt as feck.
Oh look we have shit our pants again
Speechless. Now people will criticze the team, but we had the game completely controlled. That is just...speechless with VAR
And again our full backs flying forward. Pep you are tactically turning shit.

Game management this season is amateur & never learns

All on pep once again
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.....

Officials are incompetent
Wheels have cone off.
It’s time that someone in the hierarchy at City called this out.
We've been raped
nah feck off i'm done this league is bent as hell no point
Say what you want about that crap decision from the ref....but we fly into stuff devoid of thought VERY often. Our defense is shambolic.
Lol. feck this. Would love it if Eddie occasionally made big saves. Oh well...
What a collapse !
Think that’s the last game I watch this season, TV off cheating cnuts
Would be nice to see game management from Pep now and again.
feck off idiot. It was comoletely controlled and then we were robbed. Moron
Haaland is shit Btw

Playing with ten
Haaland has been invisible for 82 minutes. Alvarez should be on.
