OK St Helens Blue but you've got to admit that was a very stupid thing to quote...of all things to give credence to - a rag song is the last thing on the list. It will take our club a bit longer to build up the support acquired by the rags after their last 20 years of success and for a devout blue to take a line from one of their mocking songs is just not on. I dont understand why you can't see that - Any loyal blue would take issue with you.
Why is it stupid..Look at our attendances against Reading,Salzburg,Notts County,Leicester,Kiev last season.I was there and the average weas about 25-30000...
Giving credence to a rag song. No - what I was saying was the song that they sing is true-Unfortunately . All I fucking hear about is our great Mancunian support and we are proud we have no Irish,cockneys etc etc... If we can get 46-47k at home for home league games why cant people turn up for the league cup,fa cup games.. And then they have the fucking nerve to moan when they cant get a ticket or slag the club off for the cup scheme being unfair. Yes I am angry about being accused of being a rag but I will get over it. We sing This city is ours,all I did was state that I dont sing it as our attendances are shocking to say the least for cup games. Believe me I give no credence to those twats from Stretford but to not be able to discuss chants etc is a little naive. Remember some of the vile chants we have sung in the past-it gets debated. All I am saying is people need to turn up,support the team and not just stay at home.
Can I breathe now....?
