shackattack said:am not on here for good,but reply to everton/scouse threads only as it gives a different angle other than the blue bin dipper/golum angles...like most city fans i have lived through the ridicule of our neighbours.difference now being you are in the tunnel and we can not even see it. but you support your team because it makes you who you are, i can no longer imagine being a red than most of you can. and watching our recent performances has left me under no illusions that this will be a tough year for us.our players believed the pre season hype and do not put in a shift currently and lack of competition makes them complacent
Everton were the best team to come to us last season. You were really fired up for it and played really well but the following game you drew 0-0 away against Wolves i think and then the same at Stoke and i said then you need to find a striker to compliment a decent team. Beckford was never going to be the answer. If you could have raised 10 million for Huntelaar he might have been ok for you but its easy for me to pick names out when you are obviously struggling for money. I just feel for you as Moyes has built a good team but you need a good squad to really compete. Still think you will finish top 6-8.
I found myself disliking you a bit last season and was looking forward to the home game as the next one behind the derby. Mainly to do with their being a chuckle bro on the pitch and Moyes comments about our team spirit and players only signing for money.
As for your fans i think you are a decent bunch and its always a great atmosphere when you come to Eastlands as you always fill the away end and the banter is how it should be.
Okay, we have hit the jackpot but after 34years of nothing (i am 34 too) we are entitled to be a little bit smug but remember...we only hate man united!
