When people ask how blues can keep reading or listening to all the vitriol in the media, I can only answer for me, but I love it. Sure, it bothered me at first, but bit by bit, as City have become more successful both on and off the field, regardless, I've come to enjoy it.

The overtly histrionic public displays of the likes of Goldbridge are only a manifestation of what is going on in the heads of Roan, Liew, Harris and every other united, liverpool and Arse supporter. Look at Roan's face when he's delivering his bile, it's contorted with an all-consuming hatred. The "journalistic" equivalent of Klopp. It's an expression on the face of every anti-city writer, poster or blogger as they hammer impotently at their keyboard every time we win or even score a goal. It's visceral and pure and it lifts my heart with every word.

But maybe that's just me.

Thing is personally speaking around the time of the CAS hearing it was really beginning to affect me. Every day I would see or hear hatred towards my Club, I took it personally I couldn't help myself.

These attacks are on the one stable thing in my life, City have always been there. Through divorce, death, redundancy , my home club was always with me, my safety net.

To have my safety net attacked day after day got me down. It wasn't the only thing that was getting me down but it played apart.

One day I had a breakdown and poured my heart out on this forum. Thankfully some really nice posters spoke to me and got me to see a doctor.
The doctor put me on antidepressants and I have never felt happier.

So now I can read the press/media and like you just laugh at it, it doesn't upset anymore.

So when I say I don't understand why City fans read or listen to the press/media hatred, its because I don't want other fans to get as low as I did.

The press/media weren't responsible 100% for my mental health issues but it didn't help. Divorce, parents passing, redundancy happen over a 5 year period. The hatred from the press/media just added to this.

Sorry for my ramble but if the press/media are getting you down ignore them.
As Newman Noggs say laugh at them. Do one or the other but don't let the bastards grind you down. I know that's easier said than done.

Even if this was accurate (it isn’t), or was even a legitimate financial measure (it isn’t), or had any relevance when comparing success (it doesn’t), the chart shows that for less than twice Liverpool’s net spend City has more than twice the major trophies and five times the premier league titles.

So their point is City is a better run club.

Saying that the way the city connects with its managers is unique, be it Liverpool or Everton.

What the fuck does that even mean?

Yes, Roy Hodgson has very warm memories of his time there and how he was welcomed.

This manager means more. Unless he’s shite of course. Then it’s polish your pitchforks and light your torches……
