To be fair, Henke, I think that example of tribalism is *especially* representative of much of current society (even well outside of football). And I don’t necessarily see myself (or you, or we blues in general) as exempt from it.

Oh Lord, I'm not for a second saying we're exempt - we're as "guilty" of it as anyone, I'm not saying we're different in any way.
 
City could cure cancer and create world peace and United fans would find something to attack. It's normal, and not reflective of most.


That’s not true at all. There’s fans of every club gobbling this bullshit up. I live next door to a Spurs fan, educated with a very good job. He laps it up.
If it wasn’t what the football public wanted to hear/read. They wouldn’t be filling the papers & tv broadcasts with this constant codswallop.



You’re right in one way, people with no interest in football don’t care.

And most people I speak to who are football fans are barely aware of it and care less. Anecdote isn't data.

If you want to talk data, I’m pretty sure there’s lots of data to suggest that a constant bombardment of anti City nonsense is exactly what people want to read/watch.

Fair enough. I suppose I misread your message as your saying that United supporters’ actions were *not* representative of much.
 
The fact that they refer to the press as a pack - is incredibly accurate. If you watch them at City they are like little boys, talking shit, egging each other on, asking pathetic, stupid (and sometimes disrespectful) questions, few of them are particularly smart or talented, they are under huge pressure to get clicks (the press as we know it is about to disappear) most wouldn’t know the truth if it punched them in the face. Just look at how Pep looks at them - utter contempt. He’s got them weighed up alright. I’m not a violent person but how someone at the club hasn’t lamped Simon Stone is beyond me.

Yep even Henry sunk to a new low in my book going after clicks with his photo of our empty corporate seats.
 
The Dippers generally get a free pass in the media now , Klopp's failure to win a trophy in three probably four years despite spending £350m , the coach attack was generally referred to as banter by over exuberant cheeky little scousers , Salah was player of the year last year but didnt contribute to his team winning anything and VVC will probably achieve the same this season. Their front three are the best in europe but have scored 50 goals less than us this season , but the most significant issue the fact we have won more in the first 6 months of this season than the Dippers have won in 15 years , one league cup victory which really puts the Dippers current standing in football into perspective , they promise so much but achieve absolutely nothing season after season.
The Rags and Dippers will always be the media's love child and will not change in my generation , and as long as they both continue to be nearly men or shite i will happily take that , whilst i watch the club i have supported through struggles neither Utd/Scouse fans have ever witnessed , win as many trophies as possible ,never been a better time to be a Blue , the media garbage will never spoil that for me.

Henry Winter the Spurs fan ! Has he not noticed the corporate seats at Wembley are never full! I guess not.
