Funny stats to upset United fans

^ on my point from above; without City, United would either still be a minor club or wouldn’t even exist.

Before our player Matt Busby went to them, United were nothing.

Their only trophies before Busby were won with City players. We agreed to give them first dibs on our banned players in 1906, with whom they won 2 league titles and an FA Cup. Without them, United wouldn’t have won any trophies at all in their first 46 years as a club until Busby went there.

We voted with them when Manchester Central wanted to join the FL, which kept them in business. Without us doing that there would be no Manchester United today because they were in the shit and Central were getting bigger crowds than them as an amateur club and had better backers. United were floundering down the bottom of the Second Division and getting gates as low as 3,000 which saw them being insolvent. They couldn’t even afford new kits. But Central not getting voted in saw their backers back-out, Central disappeared, and United’s crowds started to increase again.

Matt Busby had a trial at City but told City that he was thinking of emigrating to America with his Mother. So City offered him a one year contract and told him he could go to America after the year if he still wanted to but we were so impressed with him we offered him a full time contract during that year and he decided not to join his Mother in America and stayed with City. If City hadn’t shown so much interest and faith in him, he’d have gone to America and never have ended up turning United from nothing (nearly going bust and getting 11,000 average attendances in the 1930s) into the biggest club in the country.

We allowed them to use Maine Road after Old Trafford was bombed. They used it for 4 years just as City had been relegated and just as Busby started building a decent side. This lead to United sucking away our support somewhat as City fans were watching both teams but enjoying seeing ex-City star Busby at another local club playing in our own stadium and the better team at the time more. United wouldn’t have gained that support without being on our turf.

What have we got in return off the cunts? A banner mocking our longest trophy drought (but not Manchester’s longest trophy drought, as their 37 years is longer!)?

Top post, and anyone outside the blue bubble would see this as top Berting, but all of the above are facts.
 
Everything about them is unoriginal.

They stole ‘Manchester’ from us.
They stole ‘United’ from Sheffield Utd.
They stole their club colours from Salford RLFC.
They stole their ‘Red Devils’ nickname from Salford RLFC.
They stole their ‘Old Trafford’ stadium name from Lancashire CCC.
They stole their club crest from Liverpool.

Count your visits to the swamp for derby games. Chances are you'll have been there more times than many rags who claim to be loyal supporters. That stat has upset many former colleagues.

This one has always worked a treat for me. It's a trump card against the plastics. You can also include City's random trips for replays at Old Trafford like Luton and Walsall, plus testimonials. The one that pushes them over the edge is when I tell them I have seen George Best play more times than them and he is "seriously over-rated." He never turned up against City.
 
Slagging off the enigma that is Paul Scholes is a sure fire way of getting their hackles up.
I don't know what it is but they see him as some sort of demi god and one of the best to ever play the game.

His prem career average goals are shocking, something like 4 or 5 goals a season, his assists even worse, he finished his career on the same amount of assists as the great Danny Murphy , even Raheem Sterling currently has more assists than Scholes had in his career.
