I'm as blue as they come, and see this as nothing more than an honest mistake. A very stupid one granted.
did a rag pal tell you this !scotty said:Apparently Gary Cook has just welcomed Uwe Rosler into the manchester United Hall of Fame. Everyone is going mad. the end of Gary fuck. the stupid Rag twat.

The reaction to this on here though has absolutely shocked me - i thought city fans had the greatest sense of humour of all clubs. I thought we could laugh at ourselves. Is this not a moment to laugh at? 10 years ago no-one would have accidentally called us Utd cos we were in a different world to them. Now we're competing for 4th and we're accidentally being called Utd? I take that as a compliment of our current success. The more successful we are, the more this may happen. Admittedly i didnt expect it to start with our own CEO but never mind, shit happens.
Unfortunately the rags name is now a worldwide brand. The better we do and the higher up the table we are, the more likely it is that people will get confused because where they are used to saying "utd in the top 4" they are going to have to learn how to say "city are in the top 4".
I think this is a good problem for us to have to live with.
What i'm most pissed off about, is that our own fans booed during an Uwe Rosler speech. Disrespectful pricks.

Well they're wankers for taking themselves so seriously and deserve a slap. Simple as that.The Fat el Hombre said:I think a few blues had to be escorted out of the place cos they were going off their heads

My dad was there he said it was bad. he said it was a great night up until that point where it all went tits up, I think a few blues had to be escorted out of the place cos they were going off their heads

ffs why though? Must be alcohol induced surely. I mean, even if it was as bad as it sounds, does it really need that sort of reaction? Seems a bit OTT to me.

Bluemoon is getting embarrassing at times.
What's that got to do with it? You said people had to be escorted out, ergo they're wankers who need to learn how to behave. Makes no difference if i was there or not, either you're telling the truth or you aren't.The Fat el Hombre said:Were you there?pardoe said:Well they're wankers for taking themselves so seriously and deserve a slap.

Why did Colin Shindler call his book "Manchester United Ruined My Life"? Because he knew it would sell more than one called "Manchester City Ruined My Life".
You are surely not suggesting that GC did this on purpose are you PB?

Wanting to take a swing at the guy because of it is obivously OTT, but the people on here trying to pass this off as nothing need to seriously think for a second about how Garry Cooke's 'slip of the tongue' went down at a 60th anniversary OSC bash. To make a fuck up like that and not even try and make amends, make a joke or anything is just fucking shocking, apparently he just left it hanging there - Uwe Rosler in the manchester united hall of fame.
People on here can sit behind their PC screens and play it down as per usual but in the real world it's a colossal balls up, there's no two ways about it. Cookey was just starting to earn a bit of credibility after his early gaff's and now he fuckes up bigger than ever before
Nope, in the grand scheme of things it really doesn't bloody matter. Life's too short.The Fat el Hombre said:People on here can sit behind their PC screens and play it down as per usual but in the real world it's a colossal balls up
