This sounds to me like Cook has too many sherberts and got tongue-tied, which anyone who's had to do public speaking will understand.
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.
