So true.

The pub doors open, Josh walks in, and everyone inside the pub rushes to other other pub doors to get out as fast as they can.

What a smug tw@t! And a Cockney Rag!

Another Red Shirt Shill to add to the list.

Who is Josh’s dad because it sounds like he doesn’t have a job but keeps a diary.

Partly because of the advent of the internet partly because of the rabid anti City content I’ve give up a newspaper except for at the week end.

Paper of choice is Times because it’s not been too bad on City.

Just read Glancys effort. If there wasn’t a photo I would have guessed it was written by a spotty 10 year old trying to be witty . How utterly pathetic. If it was meant to be funny it failed. It’s just a tick box for everyone who supports the teams in red. It reads like City are scum and it’s offensive.

But it’s been talked about so I suppose the saddo has got attention. But the solution is in our own hands. Don’t hand money over to help such prats earn a living.

Shame on the Sunday Times. Be careful you don’t end up like the anti City Athletic. Having to virtually give your product away.

If I'm daft enough to listen to a sports radio phone in, my heart sinks if a City fan calls in, not because of what they say, but because they engaged. When it comes to City these shows are invariably loaded with ifs and buts, and always framed as a springboard to talk about the really important stuff like red shirts and Champions League royalty.

City's achievements are routinely qualified. Before the last Champions League game our opponents were bigged up in the hope they'd thump us, but when we thumped them, apparently Leipzig were shit, and so it goes, on and on and on.

What a loathsome article in today's Sunday Times. It is headed "I hate Arsenal, but for the game's sake they must beat Guardiola's automatons",

It is penned by an oaf called Josh Glancy (who???) who says he grew up in North London as a Man Utd supporter (surprise, surprise) watching the "buccaneering" United side. He the goes on to describe City as "boring, charmless, endlessly effective", and asks if anybody actually enjoyed watching EH score five against Leipzig.

Unless it's some kind of piss-take, a kind of reverse compliment to City, I cannot see how this stuff gets printed. It's wrong on so many levels, and highly offensive.

To describe us as "boribg and charmless" shows what he knows about the game. Charmless is the perfect word to describe those rats from Stretford.

I am not savvy enough to post the article itself, but somebody might. Not that it should be read by any sane person, as it turns the stomach.

So glad I never read the Times.

Today's attendance is 5,222, a bit shy of full capacity with a few empty light blue seats in evidence, despite reports this game was a sell-out.

Just seen that, although I stopped reading after the first line. “Growing up as a teenage Manchester United supporter in north London in the 2000s” pretty much sums up the state of modern football “journalism”.

Completely unnecessary and gratuitous dig. Sadly BBC Sport seems infested. The dial on my moron-ometer has gone to 11.

When the women's game needs support and positive re-enforcement for all the good that it represents, it gets talentless twats like Emma Smith whose sole contribution is the square root of fuck all.

Good to know we've got no chance of lifting the PL and we've been knocked out of all cup competitions and we're in a mid table comfort zone.

There wont be enough piss in the world to boil if we end up champions. Not sure what Rashford and Moyes are doing in that photo, mid table hum drum isn't exactly newsworthy. Journalism is at an all time low in this country.

Moyes is there as the most recognisable face of the 8/9 teams at the bottom being so close.
Arsenal because they’re top (for the 1st time in over a decade)…
As for Rashford?!? - top 4 contender? Would be better to have Newcastle, resurgent, on the up after nearly 20 years of not much? - a far better choice of unbiased picture.
