Most ridiculous take from a rival fan?

Does anyone care about how "big" any club is? What does it even mean? Most fans, most trophies? Personally I think every club has history and special incidents in history that are special to their fans.
I would like clubs to be judged by the quality of football they play and how the club is run particularly in how they treat other clubs and fans at all levels of the pyramid. Based on those criteria City should score pretty highly but we will be judged by the majority on cartel propaganda.
I agree entirely. Ask anyone in the UK how they felt when frank Bruno won the heavyweight title or Andy Murray won Wimbledon or james hunt won the formula one championship. Did their achievements mean less because American, Russians or Australians had bigger populations or won more trophies or medals or had a better history of winning. Thats the arrogance i hope City never get. Everyone's trophy wins are big to them and none of this 'it means more' bollox
 
Had the misfortune of having to spend a few hours at the sister in laws house yesterday and the know nowt nobhead brother in law with his sidekick nephew of mine were present.

I avoid talking football due to these 'conversations' turning quite heated in the past but as per, these two ballbags just couldn't help themselves.

It started with the England game and how poor it was. In true plastic rag fashion both Foden and Stones were lambasted. I ignore the bait.

It then turned into how they don't watch football anymore and that there aren't any footballers worth paying to go and watch. A veiled dig at the fact that me and my wife do in fact pay to go and watch football. Again, I ignore the bait.

Long story short.

Haaland is shite and anybody could do what he's done in our team.

Rodri not as good as Keane as he's never nullified a threat such as Zidane in a big game.

Wouldn't pay to watch Phil Foden and referenced his performances for England.

People used to pay to specifically watch George Best, Eric Cantona and Ronaldo. No City player in history can ever make that claim.

Rodri and Gundogan are gobshites banging on about too many games and being tired etc. George Best did what they do with crap pitches, heavy footballs and a far more brutal game.

City are boring to watch. There's zero jeopardy. At least with Utd you don't know what your going to get.

I did point to our game against Fulham compared to their game against Villa but it fell on deaf ears. City are boring, end of.

It's fucking tiresome dealing with these two. I've told my wife that Xmas will be fun because I'm not going to be as passive as I was in my house, than I was in there's.

Neither have ever has season tickets and have only been to Old Scaffold a handful of times when the nephew was still at school. (He's 23 now)
I'd say City are often on their mind and they use numerous coping mechanisms to deal with it. Pathetic, really.

No offence but your sister in law's brother sounds like a boorish, moron.

No way would i put up with shit like that, life is too short, if he starts again in your house, show him the fucking door.

Couldn't agree more.
Did any of us celebrate Dickov's goal any less wildly than Aguero's?
I know I didn't.
Does the fact the Aguero moment happened in any way detract from Dickov's equaliser?
I'd argue, if anything, it enhances its importance. Equally, if we had never prospered afterwards, memories of the Dickov goal would cherished no more or no less than they are today.
 
My son lives in Oz. I've just come back from there.
My 4 year old grandson has a friend and I was talking to his dad. He is Malaysian born aussie........ and a rag. He's been to the swamp and even stayed up to watch the Villa drab draw. A biiggggggg rag

He reckoned that Pep was leaving at the end of the year....... wait for it.......
To take over the rags.

When I eventually stopped laughing I realised he was serious.
