The Bluffer's guide to MCFC

[SFraser]

What do Milwall fans deserve?

Supporters support a team. If every fanatic thought he defined a team every club on the planet would be on infinate European Cups.

Your team is 11 players on a pitch ruled by a manager, playing for a shirt that has meaning.

That's why you play second, third, fourth, meh fiddle to us. It's not the fans fault. Your football club is just shit.

 

[humdinger]

That's the most embarrassing thing I've seen since Owen's brochure.

It certainly is! It is the most cringeworthy thing I've ever seen, and it doesn't even seem to be tongue in cheek.

I'm actually embarassed for them. Made all the funnier by how much they have preached to us over the years and claimed to be a proper club and mocked us for being gloryhunters. Shows what a bunch of wannabes they are and how anyone will sell their soul to the devil given half a chance.

Laughed when I first read that article, sounds like it's a p-take written by a United fan.

Mind boggling that City see fit to put it on their site.

Almost feel embarrassed for their fans.

 

[erickingcantona]

any United are supposed to have plastic supporters. bloody hell.

 

[nistleloy]

No more empty blue seats and unsold bitter-burgers at the COMS after the world has read that!

Absolutely awful.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

This will be our first FA Cup Final since 10000BC, so don’t try and bluff your way through historical facts. The last time we won a trophy, we paraded the Cup through the jungle on the back of a Brontosaurus.

 

[sajeev]

how can they put it on the official site?

 

[Chrisjn]

Mirror claiming City are in for Xavi

 

[vanthaman]

Just saw this, journos are ripping into them on twitter

 

[Sassy Colin]

C'mon guys, must be some Photoshop opportunities here?

 

[MUFCgal]

Is this on their official site for real?

 

[Wonder Pigeon]

Oh Manchester City.

 

[towcester_red]

hahaha ive just sent that to everyone I know

Pathetic

 

[Crustanoid]

How are they going to argue that all their fans come from Manchester now?

 

[towcester_red]

If they can pick up 20,000 glory supporters they might fill the stadium

 

[stubie]

Man City = All of a sudden think they are a big club just because they have a few Billion in the bank.

Reputation is built over the course of time not how much cash you have in the bank.

Champions League qualification and the FA Cup Final will mean hundreds of thousands of people will adopt the Blues as their chosen side

Seems a bit optimistic to me.

 

[Talking Vulture]

To be honest Steve, I'm thinking of jumping ship. I mean, how shite is it supporting a team on the verge of making history by winning their 19th title and have a European Cup Final to look forward to?

Give me an FA Cup Final v Stoke and finishing 4th any day of the week. See you later MUFC

I know exactly how you feel, mate. Personally, I'm tempted to switch allegiance by the prospect of free season tickets inside special packs of Space Raiders. Well, that and the raffle with Jo as first prize.

Own goal

Ok you ready for this, they've outdone themselves. The bluffers guide pales in comparison.

Manchester City wipe Manchester United from top of the league on official website
Manchester City, perhaps worried the record 19th league title Manchester United are about to claim will overshadow their own successful season, have taken drastic, or petty, measures to knock them off their perch (online at least).

Manchester City’s official website carries a snapshot of the top of the Premier League table, accurate in all it shows, it is less than complete – Manchester United’s name does not appear.

City have gone to great lengths to upset their neighbours and rivals, publishing a provocative poster featuring Carlos Tévez when the Argentine signed for City from United welcoming him to Manchester.

This latest snub carries less of the effort or artistry that went in to that stunt, but demonstrates that the club have United on their minds – even if not on their website.
