When he or some other slug get a slap/verbal grief he'll be full of see I told you so.

City are really strange sometimes, quick to jump on us, give no support to fan issues , bend over for the press time and time again usually taking their side against us etc.

It's not worked since 2008 and isn't going to either in the future.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I remember the articles in the press prior to the derby that marked the anniversay of Munich and one made the suggestion that every City fan should be assigned to a member of the armed forces to ensure good behaviour during the minute's silence. And at the end of the game the Ragette on the tannoy congratulated us for our 'impeccable' behaviour. But don't put any facts, argument or reason on the table for the shite that masquerades as the press 'cos all they are concerned with is throwing more shite.

'Bout time we started banning some of these third rate hacks. The air inside the stadium would be a lot fresher for a start.

City need to get this removed, and then ban that fucking clown from our ground for life.

They will probably take his side.

Ian Herbert is vermin. To even claim that we ‘all’ can’t respect Charlton is strange when on various forms of social media after Franny Lee’s death there was more rags posting horrific comments about him but you’d never see the media throw their darlings to the wolves. I seem to remember him calling us a ‘grubby little club’. There should be a legal route for these horrific claims but the club will stand by and watch and probably give him free hospitality. What a grim person, article and hatchet job.

They really don't have any shame do they, these old school, brought up on United, United loving journalists.

No, Bobby Charlton didn't put Manchester on the map, Herbert. Manchester was on the map long before Bobby Charlton became a United player.

Manchester put the north on the map.
Industrial Revolution, Peterloo to name just a couple.

If Herbert had any professional self-respect the **** would be embarrassed about such an ill-informed and misconceived article, but he’s too consumed with whoring his highly questionable services out to give a fuck.

Says it all that his bookshelf is full of his own unsold books.

I’m surprised they aren’t made to introduce themselves before a question. I’m sure England press conferences are managed this way.

An Aussie player approached Jack after the game and asked for his shirt. He obviously didn't think Jack would want his shirt and as Grealish handed his shirt over he asked the Aussie for his shirt, which he happily swapped. The BBC website showed the clip and called it a class act from Jack, but one journo arsehole (think it was Rob Draper) posted a snarky remark about what constitutes class. Just one small reason they don't want to be filmed, there wouldn't be a ground in the country where they wouldn't be wary of someone wanting to give them a slapping.

Here's a question for a great philosophical debate:

"If Oliver Holt was a lollipop what flavour would he be?"

Something like one that was picked up in dogshit alley.

 

[solley attwell]

Might be fanciful but as a collective we should come together and sue Herbert for defamation.

Do you think Herbert would write all Muslims are terrorists on the back of several suicide bombers, would he fuck.

@projectriver @Shads am I reaching here?

Look what Colin Mafham wrote about the scousers. Yes the same type of rethorical question and they didn't take it well. Even the major of Liverpool got involved
