My old man "won" tickets to sit in their corporate end. The lounge before hand was a scandal- shitload of Cockneys and a load of Austrians (and they definitely were, we spoke to them). Only two blokes in Scum shirts, who worked out we were blue but were ok- unsurprisingly they had Manc...

Me and the old man managed to sneak in to the Rag corporate bit (had a programme thrown at my head when I didn't cheer their goal), and I heard them singing about Marc-Vivien Foe. Anyone else hear it?

Liverpool around Xmas years ago at Maine Road: "You''re the ones, you're the ones, you're the ones that robbed me gran". Followed by a bloke screaming "I want my VHS back you thieving Scouse t**ts!" And not a City one but I was with a Dingle mate at Reading v Burnley a few years back and a...

Went today with a Wednesday fan, great game, we went as fans of the game. Great result, and I hope they go on and on. Shame they booed Bernstein, not his fault!

Oh well, we've won a trophy more recently than that lot ;)

Off topic, but as I was leaving yesterday, we were walking on that side road from the ground to the dual carriageway. A lad was walking down the road and wasn't moving for the car behind him. Guy beeped, and the lad didn't move. So the guy drove his car (slowly) into the back of the lad's...

Deluded, the lot of them. Who's going to reappear next? Howard Kendall? Dave Merrington? Ardiles?

I went to Bolton v York today with a York-supporting mate. York were great, and really showed Notlob up and a draw would have been fair (referee was dire, how Bogdan didn't get sent off for handling outside the box is a mystery). But the Bolton fans were a disgrace. Official attendance was...

Damn right. I work in West Yorkshire (but live in Manc still) and it's crawling with glory-hunting Liverpool fans with broad Yorkshire accents whose closest connection to Liverpool is that they watched Mickey Mouse as a kid. They'll all mysteriously revert to Leeds United and Bradford when...

I asked the same question because it seemed odd that the most senior person there would not work afternoons, because I frequently needed to speak to him. Turned out that he had decided to go home early each day, because he was 'working through lunch'- which must have been a long lunch, because...

We're playing well even with ten men, which is positive. Song will be off by the end of this game, if he carries on like this.

Come on Barrow.

Games I hate: Basketball- just utterly rubbish. Rugby union- any game where you can rename cheating to 'the dark arts' and therefore declare it acceptable is not worth it. Golf- marbles for old people. Polocrosse- spotted this on Sky the other day- it's lacrosse on horseback Formula One- I'd...

Rugby union, yeah. But definitely not rugby league.

A few months ago, I was sent to the West Midlands to do some security work at a NHS trust's IT department. The department had eight staff, managed by four managers, two of whom were apparently the same grade. But apparently I only needed to speak to 3 of them. When I asked why I didn't need...

Selling condemned meat to Manchester's children must have helped the coffers. Or at least Louis Edwards'.

My Dad's a lifelong Blue (as Manclad will attest) and took me to my first game in 1993 against Sheffield United. The game was rubbish but my old man won a cigar at half-time. I doubt that'll get painted on the walls in the concourse...

It's pretty pathetic really. I do know Manc rags who claim that "this is how City fans talk", which is odd as I grew up and went to school with the same Rags. The local Rags of course also can be found referring to their team as "Yanite-od", but apparently this is some kind of correct...

I've heard a rumour that there's more about Rooney on the way. From the same bloke who told me the last story a few weeks before it broke (works for a paper).

I was watching the scum in a pub in Sale on dodgy Sky and heard a rag shout: "I don't understand, why haven't we scored yet?" Tells me all I need to know about their sense of entitlement.
