Have we turned into Rag Fans?

As ironic as it was to sing "we'll score when we want", that really made me cringe. Was always going to haunt us and makes us look like right arrogant gits.

"You loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win" (Leonard Cohen)

Can we sing that instead of the plain stupid (because untrue) "score when we want"?

Some people have. Putting gold badges on designs for next season's kit just screams arrogance.

Also threads saying 'When we win the league...' and not 'if'.

We just need to tone it down a little bit. Would be much better if we were humble, took defeats on the chin and just supported the team. We don't have a right to win every game and teams will defend for their lives against us. Let's just accept it, enjoy the challenge and go for it as best we can do. Then if we win it we can celebrate and if we don't then that's part of sport.


The majority of these threads lately are being done by WUM's.

The board is infested with them at them moment but unfortunately some people can't see it. The clues are there for all to see if you know what you're looking for?
 
Yes, a minority of our fans have become extremely arrogant and have completely lost all perspective since the takeover.

I'd point you to this forum over the last week. We had numerous threads calling for the managers head and calling him clueless because despite being top of the league, we got beat.

10 years ago we would be pissing ourselves if the rags did that.

You are assuming that all members are blues. They are not.

All fans of successful clubs will tell you, you get hated by being successful, we were loved when we were poor.

We don't need to be loved by other fans!

If we were'nt being successful we wouldnt be hated..

We need to be hated by the other fans!
 
It's just a perception flouted about to somehow ridicule us for going to the top. I was returning from a recent event with 8 other people in the car. The Everton game was on and when the final whistle went a young lad in the back said 'Thank God, they're arragant mugs'. To this I asked if I was an arrogant mug as I'd sat in the car without a peep about the football. He then sheepishly said that we all were due to our circumstances at which I asked who he supported. No need to guess who it was and when it was pointed out to him that this was the perception of how the Rags act then he said it was just because they were winners and everyone was envious of them.

I then pointed out the league and left it at that. I think he got the point.

I think our fanbase remains much as it ever was. The humour's still there. Had a good laugh yesterday. The miserable fuckers who love slagging off our players are still here. Heard them too. There's always been arrogant banter i.e. small town in..., and practically every game I can remember from the second division that we won had [scoreline] in your cup final. No different to we'll score when we want in my opinion. There's always some underlying irony which I'd hope most fans will understand for what it is. As for general arrogance, I don't know. I expect to win the title because I believe we have the best side but is that arrogance or is it justified? We're top of the league with the best scoring and defensive records. Are Bluemoon meltdowns a sign of creeping arrogance? Possibly. We should never be above being beaten by a particular class of opposition, that probably is ragish behaviour. Just as long as we're not being consistently beaten by lower league opposition then it shouldn't be a cause for concern.

yeah....and what's it like to see a crowd at every small ground we took over.

Great days........arrogant as fk. Come on you blues.

ello ello we are the City boys
