I like to see how they would fancy a spell in the 3rd tier, one of them was saying our support back then, of getting gates of over 30k was a city myth that " they like to throw around, they were ONLY getting 28k", ONLY.... made me laugh that one.
Can we have a best of RAWK and Rag Caf thread?

Rag Caf isn't bad as there are some good, pragmatic posters on there. RAWK on the other hand...
They have this overwhelming sense of entitlement because they've won the European Cup/CL 5 times, despite the fact it's 10 years since they last did it. Or believe that they're a "bigger" club than us because they can sell out a stadium in Kuala Lumpur, despite the fact we've won the PL twice and they haven't won the title for 25 years. Or state that we're the luckiest club in the world because we were rescued from the verge of oblivion by owners pumping money in forgetting that FSG did the same for them and still do. Or firmly believe that singing "We're gonna win the league" doesn't actually mean they firmly believe they're gonna win the league. And don't even mention those hyperbolic and cringe-inducing songs and poems.

Why are the rags of the caf sucking up to us? I've visited a few times recently and come away thinking most (if not all) posts were fairly well balanced... Feels bizarre.
I think there rivalry with Liverpool and our recent head to head with them has forced us into some kind of tacit unification. Not sure I like it.
I'm sure next season when we smash them in yet another derby and Liverpool are back struggling for top four everything will go back to normal again!

If we were highlighting individual lunatic comments from RAWK, we would end up pasting 99% of their forum to here, probably easier to just post the site link.
It reads like the pamphlet of a deluded cult. I only dread to think what would have happened if they had won it, but alas St Brendan and the lads he took from the street, breast fed and installed a footballing philosophy, the likes of which the world has never seen before, could never be expected to beat the team that the devil himself built on the backs of slaughtered children and at a cost of £19Gazillon.
Like the rest of the loathsome old "Big 4", they do things the right way...

Talk about damning with faint praise.
Saying rag cafe is the best united forum is a bit like saying Stuart Hall is your favourite sex offender.

I'm going for Vanessa George here, as unlike that Scudamore bloke I strongly believe that women are under-recognised at the top table of sexual predatory paedophiles.
