If this rancid, graceless outfit is lauded as Britain's finest sporting institution we are fucked.
Top post AB. I saw that at Wembley, when all their fans on coaches from places like Leicester, Nottingham, Northampton, Wolverhampton, etc were chucking bricks at our coaches after the semi-final. Not only had they lost but they'd lost to "little City" who they'd mocked for years.AustinBlue said:I don't hate them, I pity them. None of them know what it's like to support a team that has no hope of winning anything, and yet still belonging to a brotherhood of other fans. None of them know what it's like to sing songs like "we lost last week" or "we're not really here." They sing nursery rhymes about glory and winning. They have this shallow experience that they think is rooted in some divinely appointed right to win that one day will come crashing down on them. They'll never know what it's like to beat United. So they can bleat on about injustice and unfair treatment... but I won't hate them. They have a shallow, plastic experience and I celebrate every time they have to choke on a loss, but mainly I'll just feel sorry for them because they don't support a team like City.

Quite simply, they are a disgrace to English football.

Not because they got beat in a Football Match but this whole,National inquest into the supposed unjustness of the Nani sending off. In my opinion, it should have been a Yellow. However it does get worse every single time I see it. If we want to talk about hypocrasy for a second look up Fergusons reaction to the Kompany sending off in the Cup or even better a sending off for Eboue of Arsenal against Utd a couple of Seasons back in an identical challenge to Nani's.
As we know after the Game the ITV coverage did not feature any other incident from the Game such as the debateable disallowed Madrid Goal, the possible Handball from Raphael or the dysfunctional tactics of United once down to 10 men. Today has featured more of the same from every single Media outlet; Paper,TV and Radio.
I had always known there was Media Bias but it was only today that I realised how strong and how despicable that Bias actually was and how it has a strong chance of stopping us as a Club from reaching our aims and Goals.
