This accurately and completely echoes the reams of print and pontificating from the end of season 2013. United retaking back ‘their’ PL title from the new tainted upstarts, cementing a 13th title in 21 seasons, the gushing over Ferguson’s incredible awesome record and how it’s been a brilliant time for football, the PL and what a time to be alive watching the best football in the world.

Ah…


The only similarity is ‘saviour’ and ‘moysiah’
 
"Their victory has however sparked comments about the healthiness of City's dominance and concerns about the competitiveness of the league."

How many titles have we won on the last day of the season, let alone the last kick?

I can just imagine the scene of one of these morons knocking on the door of the Emirates or Anfield and saying, "FFS, when are you bastards gonna compete?"

There's no competition when we win it; it's unhealthy 'cos there's sky blue ribbons on the pot!

I do wish I could read some football reporting that was informative, inspiring, creatively written and saw what the rest of the world beyond Rag/Arse/Dipperdom see.

The only conclusion an intelligent person can come to would be that it is driven by base jealousy and envy

Ahhhh! The Daily Mail, quick to criticise, hold the moral compass and whose owner is a member of the House of Lords who took up French citizenship and became a tax exile with non domestic status. He registered the Daily Mail in Bermuda thus avoiding paying full uk tax.

Despite all the slime, shade, shite directed as us for being a SMALL club.

We're NOT a small club anymore.
This was our TENTH league title.
We've dominated an entire DECADE of footy in England.
That's the very definition of a big club everywhere on the planet except for the fake news media.

They want to be all in on denial but..

1937
1968
2012
2014
2018
2019
2021
2022
2023
2024

It's simple math. It did happen! And they just want to throw their toys about and kick and scream up a storm. Pathetic!

City were a big club, long before our recent success, we were winning trophies long before most of the mard arse teams looking up at us now had won anything ….
I can see us winning at least 7 in a row .. !

I would think that Our Tata has not one single thought about taking down his former employer but winning the title on the back of what his own team has done.

It's quite clear from this headline what drives Herbert - not pro-football, not pro-Arsenal or their manager but blind, ignorant, malicious anti-City drivel.

Absolutely Dave. There are so many stories to be told if you were interested in other stuff than tribalism.

For example, I like to know how they guy from Luton is going on and his prospects, an article about all the kids coming through at Barca, why the case against Paquetta is taking so long, what is it about Dortmund that attracts so many English kids, who is the Ipswich manager and what has been his journey etc. I know some of you guys will know some stuff about those isolated cases, but I want an in depth researched piece with some personal detail and an thoughtful opinion at the end. I would pay for a subscription for that stuff, the stuff I thought I would be getting from the Athletic a few years back.

The majority of 'journalists' have strayed so far from the original job that there is no way back now. They feel like crackheads who can't wait for their latest fix of salacious gossip or negativity.

Only a very small fraction of people actively use Twitter/x (about 5 per cent last time I looked) but that includes all the media people and they use it as a main source of their stories. That's why we get a totally distorted view of what is happening in this country. Tribalism of all sorts is the dominant theme especially in politics and sport. Huge stories outside London get ignored. The infected blood and Post Office scandals were ignored for at least 30 years. The role of a journaist used to be to reveal news and challenge authority. Now they just cut and paste content from other websites as part of a clickbait culture. Coverage of footbal in the UK is diabolically bad.
