His reporting was certainly Interesting. He described what happened in fairly vivid and sometimes shakespearian quotes.He was a City fan,so why shouldn`t he take the piss ? We did.

There were a good few seasons when that description was very apt! There's also the joke from B Manning about the City fan nailing his ST to the wall at the sheer frustration of watching City, and it was the nail that got nicked!

Whilst travelling back home we couldn`t wait to hear if it was Hall who would make us laugh, as you say with some of Shakespearian quotes.His reporting was certainly Interesting. He described what happened in fairly vivid and sometimes shakespearian quotes.
Had we known then,what we know now,we wouldn``t have entertained the cnut.

Not sure it was worthy of the term Shakespearean - utter twaddle most of it but he did have his own unique style.

He should have been the narrator for All or Nothing.

Not the paper - but their web site
Having nothing to do during this silly break I wandered onto their City web page and clicked on some of the links to articles about our players.
Scrolling down to the COMMENTS sections I stumbled across numerous mindless comments about "Emptihad, joke of the country, small team, Peep not a manager who hasn't won anything without Messi and empty seats.
What is the fixation of those idiots about empty seats? The other comments are just jealousy.
Guess I will not be going back to the Comments sections again.

I find it funny. When the rags were enjoying their dominance the only thing we perceived to have over them was our local and loyal fanbase - 30+ years and we're still here, fuck off back to London, and other chants. Now its a complete reverse of fortunes and they're using these jibes because they haven't got anything else to hit us with.Not the paper - but their web site

Best part of it is that most of the comments you see these days are from people who will have kids who, if we continue to be as successful as we currently are, will probably end up following us anyway, much like how they started supporting the rags a generation or two ago.
City could cure cancer, end poverty and create world peace, and you'd still get rival fans slag them off in comment sections. Long may that continue, there's nothing wrong with it. The nature of the slagging is the thing to watch. As said above, if it's the usual Emptyhad jibes then they're running out of material.

Quite. And the more they slag us off the more they must be hurting

I was on their website last night reading about the Christmas market being relocated for 4 years, the 4 years grabbed my attention but their was sod all in the article as per usual with the MEN, however yep the comments were littered with rags suggesting the emptihad could be used. Their wit and humour really is astounding.
