What was it they sang at our place earlier this season? "City, City, money can't buy history" or something? Summed their arrogance up for me, them and United have the most condescending and holier-than-thou fans I've seen in my life. Moral crusaders while Monsieur Vinegar takes home £7million a year and fans are charged the highest prices in English football history. "We do things the right way". OK.

The herd said:Oi oi son
don't agree with you as a gooner I think you have no class . our club has been managed the right way for decades and we have the name in the game and the trophies amassed because of this and not because of a sugar daddy . We are proud of this are you proud of how you got to where you are ?
You need to look at your own istireee you plank. Your best team was managed by Herbert Chapman, a manager you pinched from huddersfield town along with about 10 of their players

I think some Arsenal fans have been the worst for the elitist view they take to football recently. At least United have success to back up their statements if they claim to "play the best football in the country". Arsenal just have a top 4 finish.
just wanted to say this to any lurking Arsenal fans whom may still be caught in the headlights of a self consuming hatred eating away regarding our oil money.
I started watching City in 1972 when we truly had some great players and football was a world away from what it is today. Somewhere between 1978 -1982 we lost our way and the rot set in and since then I and thousands of others have had to suffer, watch and support some incredibly poor footballers. Most of us have travelled the length and breadth of this country spending thousands for nothing more in return than a faint glimmer of hope that one day it would change. Other clubs were financed and had great luck with the timing of the Premier League and the cartel of the Champions League and the gap grew ever wider.
To all you Arsenal fans who are now outraged with our newly found wealth please understand this - This is the only one way other clubs can compete nowadays and your cosy 'big 4' got too cosy to notice that by keeping it all to themselves that one day somebody somewhere more powerful or more richer would eventually say 'Fuck this we're having some of it'. So whilst you enjoyed your time in the sun, we floundered and just about kept afloat largely due to thousands of us turning up week in week out. Yes we was here when we were shit. Whilst you have never ever had to witness years upon years of some of the worst footballers you could ever imagine wearing your beloved clubs shirt. You have never ever had to watch your closest historical neighbours win everything in sight for 20 years non stop. Doubles/trebles, buying star after star footballers, having to endure 20 plus years of piss taking from the world's biggest set of C**tiest supporters. Having to listen to every pundit from China to Chinley spout on about how great they are. You have never had to grow up and listen to every footballer tell us 'it's their dream to play for United'. To have the Munich disaster held as some self righteous reason why everybody should hold a candle for that club. You have never had to hang onto a dream that one day just one day you could have some success instead of watching your club yoyo from division to division, to watch your club change managers so often it became almost a monthly event. You have never had to watch your club lose at home to their historical friendly lower league clubs like Bury and Stockport.
Our name has been dragged through the mud, kicked in the balls, laughed at from all corners yet one thing has remained constant through it all.
Us the fans...
So please forgive me and try not to take this too personally but I couldn't give a flying fuck as to what Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, United, Gillingham, Stockport, Bury and any other football club on the planet thinks about how we got the money or how we go about spending the money. Right now I couldn't give an Owl's hoot as to bringing through some unknown kid from some unknown club from some unknown village on the planet, nurturing him and watching him grow with us. I'll tell you why that is, because for years we've done that and clubs like your's used to come and take them off us when all the hard work had been done. You would lord it over us like some self righteous lord of the manor who was coming to take what was rightly their own.
So forgive me this one little pleasure as I will go on for the next 10 years loving it if we spend spend and spend some more to bring any silverware and I mean any silverware to my beautiful long deserved club and our supporters.
Seven years without a trophy...comeback when your near the 35yr mark and i'll start to have some sympathy.
Blue 2112 fantastic post, I could not agree more. well done

That really is a great post!
Now lads are we going to let an Arsenal fan have his say as you are on home ground??
i can hold my own with any fan talking about my club even your plastic rivals from accross the road.Without wanting to brag we have had success aftrer success for many a year and the fact that we have gone 7 seasons without nothing does not worry me because like we have always done in our history we will be back and like london buses there wont 1 one trophy there will probably be 3 or 4.
THE FOOTBALL ISSUE IS MONEY
It is and has ruined the game, my great club has a new state of the art stadium with plush comfortable seats great views and no atmosphere why ??
because its full of corporates and tourists who are coughing up the highest priced tickets in English football.
you might feel agrieved that those that are bothering to come down are having to pay £62 then spare a thought for fans like me and thousands more who cannot afford a season ticket and attend home matches in a stadium we call the bowl.
This is a football issue and until football fans can come together as one ( could it happen) and vote with there feet it will continue to ruin the game and take it further away from the working man and his kids.
