The thing is, it isn't even an insult, they don't really understand what football is all about - i reckon 99% of the bellends on there wouldn't even support them if they had to go through a bit of hardship.

Exactly. Football has never just been about the winning for me. You have to go through hardship to appreciate the good times when they come around, plus it’s as much about the social side IMO - meeting your mates on match day, the camaraderie, etc. If it was just about what when on out on the pitch and nothing else then it would be shit, even if we were doing well. We’re seeing this currently - watching lockdown football from your living room is utter wank. Don’t get me wrong - I understand fully why it has to be like this for now and sure, City are making it that little bit more bearable at the moment but I’m not celebrating our victories anywhere near as much as if fans were in the stadiums. If pubs are back open for the title run-in, we’ll get a bit more of that buzz back.

Back to that clown’s post. I actually have fond memories of both those games. Mansfield at home was a great night, and York away was a top weekend on the lash. It’s a shame that 90 minutes of football got in the way on both occasions but no-one is entitled to anything in football, not even self-entitled dickhead Liverpool fans on RAWK. And therein lies the difference. City fans will always wear the bad times like a badge of honour and love to reminisce about them as much as Aguero winning the league for us, whereas many Liverpool fans couldn’t even stomach 6 months of Roy Hodgson before resorting to wishing cancer on him, and one poster on RAWK famously comparing his tenure to a modern-day Hillsborough, before the mods went into panic mode and tried to blame a Red Cafe member for hacking that poster’s account (with no supporting evidence whatsoever) as they couldn’t accept that a Liverpool fan would ever come up with something so embarrassing. Anyway, the Hodgson months resulted in just over 35,000 fans turning up at Anfield on New Year’s Day 2011 for a PL game against Bolton, whereas we had over 47,000 in against Blackpool on the same day. Yet, do you ever see or hear Liverpool fans fondly reminiscing about the Hodgson reign (or any other bad times in their history) in the same way City fans do about all the shit times we’ve endured? Never. If anything, they just want to sweep that period of their history under the carpet and pretend it never happened. That’s what sets both fanbases apart. They’ll never get it. Now let’s see you put this post up in lights on your shit stain of a forum you bunch of glory-hunting plastic twats.

Posts like the one you refer to, don’t only reveal what Liverpool fans like that think of City, but other clubs in general, except for what they perceive as ‘elite’ clubs. Two thirds of clubs in the Premier League have been in the lower division since City were last there; so by that reckoning, his contempt must be confined to at least 86 league clubs (excluding Everton, so being generous).

Speaks absolute fucking volumes.

I''m decent at maths. Are you De Niro in real life?

Morning Tony, to answer your question, no, I'm not De Niro, we just happen to have the same name..

Btw, If you mean the De Niro who posts on here and is held in very high esteem, then I'm flattered to be mistaken for him..

However, if you don't mean him and I've completely missed the point then my answer is a plain no, I'm not De Niro,.!
