Re: Stoke Fans - Forum
You say ‘they’ as if every City fan has accused you of copying what we did. It was one point made my one poster in one thread on one forum.
We haven’t had over £1bn spent on us. I don’t know where you’re getting that figure from. Unless you’re including wage bills etc. but my guess is as good as yours with that one. And it’s not our first sniff of success. We were 45 minutes from the League Cup final in January 2010.
Of course we wouldn’t attract the likes of Tevez without the money. That’s why teams lower down the league don’t attract those players (because they don’t have the money City do). I don’t really see your point with that, or with our ‘self-professed beautiful football.’ The closest we’ve ever got to that is ironically singing ‘Boring Boring City’. Did you watch us play Fulham at Craven Cottage? Jamie Redknapp said that City’s performance was ‘the best first half [he’d] ever seen.’
I don’t remember any City fan saying that we deserved the takeover above anyone else either.
We were never in League 2. But we were attracting average attendances of 28,000 in the same league and season that you were attracting 12,000. Working it out through percentages and normalisations of town populations is complete bollocks really, because how many City and Stoke fans do you reckon live outside of the towns and travel greater distances for the odd game?
Yes, but the £3m we give per year for rent goes back into Manchester Council and back to the tax payers in the form or eyesores being renovated or public areas being improved.
We lost 8-1 away to Boro, we did. But at that point, there was turbulence in the board room and Sven was out of a job. A lot of the players played poorly in protest. How many of the players that played that day are in our starting 11 now? Exactly. You can see what we, the fans, thought of them.
Yes, we are honoured. You honestly don’t watch us enough if you think Barry is still what he was, because he is far from that. We do feel privileged, but the Sheikh wants a return on his investment.
Once again, another ‘possible’ that you’re having a go at us for. Do you know any City fans that moaned about United spending so much on players? If they did, they won’t be now because they have a better understanding of what it is like to be a team with a large cash-pot.
The ‘inbred thugs’ thing is a joke. Why can’t you see that? It’s like you calling us ‘Citeh’ for example. It’s all banter and fun and games. Oh here we go, with that De Jong tackle. I take it you’re forgetting just how your team play football sometimes? And Shawcross’ tackle on Ramsey? The fact that you kick teams around to win points. Don’t give us the De Jong shite.
Fashion and style? I think that was the well known City fans like Oasis and nobody else. Frank Gallagher is a ridiculously unfair stereotype of a small section of Manchester. Let’s be honest. And the scarf? He did that at Inter as well. It’s just what he does to keep warm. At least he doesn’t hide his bald head under a hat. We know you’re bald, Tony, we know you’re bald.
Then why DO you hate us? If it’s not about our new found wealth that a lot of teams would like, then what is it? I’d rather have a filthy rich sugar daddy instead of a relatively wealthy owner who’ll be able to stump up enough cash to finish mid-table.
You see, the sun is shining on us because we’ve beaten the best football team on the planet in an FA Cup Semi-final nobody thought we would win. You’ll be the same if you beat us in May.Decades in the shadows of their infinitely more successful neighbours, but it appears that when the sun does shine on them it just turns out they are collectively a bunch of loathing, self obsessed, self pity filled wankstains who have become everything that they once hated.
They say about how we have copied them with everything, would this be the one song ponies whose celebration comes freshly stolen from a Lech Poznan? So, by that, they wish they were Lech Poznan.
Over £1BN spent on them and this is their first sniff of success, with an absolutely astronomic wage bill. If it wasn't for the bottomless oil pit that they have for now, there's no chance that they could have afforded and attracted the likes of tevez, the silva, milner, barry, viera, given etc, and they'd be scrapping about playing however they needed to stay in the league each season. But now that doesnt matter, because they've been able to buy in such players who should be turning over many teams in the league and they can now play self professed beautiful football.
What about when they were taken over too... 'nobody deserves this more than us', 'we've suffered more than anybody else has'...what a bunch of self pitying arsewipes. What about the likes of Rochdale? Coz they've been mega successful havent they and they don't deserve a shot of success.
They go on about their crows in league 2. well, didn't our crowds stay pretty similar too?? Greater Manchester, an area with 2.5 million inhabitants...thats a fair bigger target audience to attract attendees compared to 400'000 of stoke.
The City of Manchester stadium, built using £110M of taxpayers money and paying £3M a year rent to the council to call it home.
A team that not even three years ago, under the control of that Thai fella who seemed like a jolly decent above board fella, lost 8-1 away to Boro, go on about other teams being a disgrace to the premier league and now expect to drub at least half of the teams of the league. Its not exactly like Boro at that time had £1BN of investment.
Some of them need to think about exactly where they were 3 years ago and be fuckin honoured and privilaged that they can now see top quality players and gareth barry challenge for the champions league and expect success to come soon. three years ago, we were wondering if we'd blown our big chance of sitting at the top table with the big boys.
Man City, no doubt some of those who, when their more successful neighbours spunked £50M on two players were moaning about how its not fair that these teams can just come along and buy who they wanted.
Man City, who sit there saying that we're a bunch of inbred thugs, but last year had the 4th highest number of fans arrested in the premier league. Who have Nigel do Jong in midfield most famous for nearly kicking a guys head off in the world cup final!
Who go on about fashion and style (not that they were at all responsible for it??) who are stereotyped by long haired scruffy cuntrags which makes Shameless look like a reality tv show. the other fashion tip being wearing a flashers coat and that gay little scarf around his neck.
Who haven't won anything major since 1976 yet have the nerve to think that they should be challenging for titles.
Who think that peoples growing hatred for them for all of the above reasons is out of jealousy and wanting to be like them...we've heard it all before from the red side of manchester/surrey.
It is true, that years of being in the shadows have turned them in to ugly, self pitying loathsome cuntrags, and only now you step in to the spotlight can people see how ugly you are.
Congratulations blue mooners, you are now exactly like them vile pricks from old trafford. mind you, your heads are so far up your own arse that you wont be able to see it for yourself. Theres such thing as having a bit of dignity in how you go about things, its a shame you've taken the complete opposite route.
I'm not going to make a guess about speaking for everybody else, but I certainly would like to just say...
go fuck yourselves

Re: Stoke Fans - Forum
Deary me, it is tough reading their forum, they are a bunch of Al Murray's "beautiful british run club, beautiful british formation, beautiful british passion, none of that fancy dan la la foreign shite - rory delap > david silva"
They really are a small town, small time bunch of idiots aren't they.
Remember blues, make sure you pack some ear plugs because we will be meeting the "Loudest Supporters in the Premier League" TM, R ect ect ect and they will let you know it, not by showing us by actually making some noise but by plastering it over anything that is flat and stays still.

MCFC BOB said:Does anyone else think that Stoke have the upper hand? They're going into this game with nothing to lose, and their Premier League status will be more or less secure for another season by the time this game comes around. Our Champions League place certainly will not, and Mancini and the players will have an eye on the league fixture on the Tuesday after the final.
I know Stoke were fortunate to come up against a catastrophically poor Bolton side yesterday, who offered nothing in 90 minutes other than two wayward shots and some poor excuses for 'defending', along with a goalkeeper in a rapid decline from what he was, but Walters, Jones and Delap's long throw-ins will really test Kompany. Let's hope we practise with Richards taking long throws so that we know how to defend them for when we're facing the likes of Huth. They play an ugly style of football that reminds me of rugby - going for lineouts and throwing it in to the big men - but they have some players that are good on the ground (Pennant, Jones, Whelan). It's an effective formation that Pulis has slowly gathered together and it's working well for them. Their league position at the moment suggests that they've struggled, and is mainly the reason why a lot of City fans think that we will beat them when it comes to it. But Stoke are our bogey team of late, and a team we always struggle against.
Stoke showed yesterday that they can score without Delap's throw-ins. I don't think the throw-ins will be as much of a threat as they usually are on a pitch the size of Wembley's, but - unlike they were arguing on Oatcake (I think they just grabbed the wrong end of the stick) - that is the only thing that will limit their attacks, which is why we should be wary of their strikers in open play, but they're a huge team in terms of height and muscle and will offer a stern test - a test I don't think we'll overcome.
Also, it is extremely unlikely that Stoke will be at this stage again in the forseeable future (no disrespect to any Stoke fans reading this) so they will give it everything they've got. I think we'll lose the final, but batter them in the league 4 days later. However if Stoke are still hovering precariously above the relegation zone, the game may swing in our favour.

Re: Stoke Fans - Forum
Seeing as most on their forum still are banging on about attendances, thought id post this link of theirs, truely laughable. 1947 - 2010: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.european-football-statistics.co.uk/attnclub/stkc.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.european-football-statistics ... b/stkc.htm</a>, seeing as these attendances are so poor and they have extra fingers, i wonder if they just got the stewards to count them out on their hands. Highest league average attendance in the last 60 odd years, 31,590, and they have the nerve to question our support.

Re: Stoke Fans - Forum
Has anyone pointed out to this "jokie" about where the money came from to build the Britannia Stadium?
Their new ground was heavily subsidised and they bought it at a hugely reduced rate. If I remember correctly Stoke council tax payers (I know, there are some) were not very happy as they believed that the council tax had paid for it
Another £3,000,000 was given as a grant by the Football Trust.
Ten years on and the Club obtained full ownership of the stadium in a deal worth £6 million following the previous joint-partnership with the Stoke-on-Trent City Council and Stoke-on-Trent Regeneration Ltd.
Also, has anyone told him Manchester Council will not sell CoMS. If they do nearly all the dosh goes to Sport England and will not be seen in Manchester.
It's in the councils interest to retain the stadium
