Papers Sun and Mirror banned by Bayern

[VOOMER]

Pathetic over-reaction by a Club renowned for its institutionalised, domineering arrogance.

It translates as "success", you should try it, you may even like it.

A decent last post.

Perhaps you should use a different translation tool, you might learn something.

I assumed you'd be able to see it was a flippant, "we couldn't care less reply" being as both comments were obviously in english. I was simply pointing out that I don't get upset by jibes, whining and banter from other club's fans. The more successful you get the more of it you get, it comes with the territory.

Fuck me, are we bitter about any other clubs?

Can someone please let me know who the equivalent of the Rags are in the following countries, just so I know who to be bitter about:

1. Spain.
2. Italy.
3. Holland.
4. Brazil.
5. Argentina.
6. Scotland.

......oh, and while we're at it:

London

In Scotland it's Cowdenbeath. Arrogant cunts.

Great post.

Some people just don't seem to get the fact that if say, City were to dominate the prem for 5 years other English fans would contemptously be describing foreign clubs as the "German/Spanish/Italian City" or some derogatory nickname for City.
It's childish school playground stuff.

No I get that entirely, what I don't get is playing the old Ferguson card of banning the journalists from the 2nd leg. Those kind of tabloid headlines, designed to appeal to their typical readers, also come with the territory right?

I have to say I've never quite shared the hatred for Bayern that many of my fellow blues clearly have.

To describe them as the rags of Germany is not without some merit, but I can't bring myself to dislike them too much as a club.

I've seen City play there twice in the ECL and enjoyed the whole experience greatly on both occasions.

If I was good enough and young enough and I could play for any two teams on the continent then Bayern would be one of them, Barca the other.

I'd choose Ac milan, have you seen their physio?

How is it abusive to use a pun on someone's name? "Swine" is right up there with "scoundrel" and "numpty" in its level of abusiveness.

When I first worked in Germany it struck me not so much how the fans of other Clubs ( Dortmund, Cologne, Gladbach, Schalke etc) disliked Munich, but why. Their reasoning was exactly the same as to why a lot of people in the UK despise the rags. And a clue for non-City fans tuning-in, they were no more jealous of Bayern's success than we are of the rags (that's to say, perhaps just a little). So you could attribute their dislike to a sense of resentment of your success, and you could suggest that the same attitudes will prevail when City becomes the dominant force domestically here in England. But anyone who thinks that's all there is to it, then they're missing the point entirely (and perhaps conveniently). I think our ambitions go beyond just being the next Manchester United.
