We focus more on the future ours looks bright, yours on the other hand looks rather shit
Why do you say that?
We have stable revenues, improving profitability, fresh investment coming up in youth facilities (long overdue) and an outlook of long term planning.
The gap between us and the other title contenders is not huge.
Whats making the transition painful is the style of play we are introducing ... but its better to do it now than later.
Nobody has milked 1958.So you wont mind stopping milking 1958 then yeah?
Modern day supporters are more concerned about success/entertainment rather than historical events.
How many of City's non-local fans know who your coach was when you won in 1968?
How many of City's non-local fans know the name of your first stadium?
Do any of them even care?

Im going to be ever so polite and say....give over lol.
Your club has laid its foundations in the tragedy that was Munich and to this day, milks it for all its worth.
My uncle was a rag and alive at the time and he said the huge up swell in support for your club due to it was incredible.
It helped to make you what you are today.

He is wrong. Post-1958 there was definitely sympathy for Man United but our current success is based on SAF, being successful at the 'right' time, commercializing our brand name really well and investing in long term assets (youth facilities, training grounds, club partnerships).

You became a world wide name overnight due to the tragedy, end of.
The club recognised that fact quickly and have milked it ever since.
Commercially you have done incredibly well, no doubt to a world wide fan base that has no doubt grown due to the PL success but it was huge before that due in no small part to the Munich tragedy and thats from a man who was alive at the time.
The sympathy the club received at the time worldwide as well as throughout the country, rightly so might i add, made millions Utd fans overnight.
If you think the club didn't recognise that and hasn't tapped into it ever since is naive at best.

You are badly overestimating the effects of the Munich tragedy.
Utd might have been everyone's second favorite team in the 60s but it was more because we played in an attractive, expansive way.
In the 70-80s when the football was dire, Utd were just another football team.
Edited - thanks !Wayne?

The level of sympathy support post Munich in places such as Barnsley/South York, Dudley and the Black country and Ireland was a direct result of the deaths of Tommy Taylor, Duncan Edwards and Liam Whelan,even today these places remain a hotbed for their support almost certainly directly linked to Munich.
thousands of city fans turned coat after munich ,a lot of women ,men who "floated* beetween the two clubs ,children were swayed becouse of the disaster ,The level of sympathy support post Munich in places such as Barnsley/South York, Dudley and the Black country and Ireland was a direct result of the deaths of Tommy Taylor, Duncan Edwards and Liam Whelan,even today these places remain a hotbed for their support almost certainly directly linked to Munich.
