Sorry, but your wrong.
The derby means so much, I grew up playing football in school against United fans, and i would always be City and they would always be United.
It's a deep rooted thing for me, City v United, it's the game you grew up waiting for, the game you all spoke about in school, and although since I started watching in 1989 we was always the under dog, I always felt that it was more than just a game and we always had a chance.
Maybe it's just me, but I cannot agree with your post. City v United is something you grow up with, and will always be a awesome game.
Out of curiosity, where did you grow up? Where are you from?
