The MEN...

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Maybe I am being a little sensitive.... but over the past few days I have noticed the local newspaper constantly referring to City as Man City, yet the rags get the full ''Manchester'' United.

I just copied this from today's online pages

Every single one is Man City & Manchester United, even on the same line! Why?

Well with our official website being mancity.com I dont suppose we can argue really.

just a guess though :-)

I always say man city so I don't have a problem with it at all

Good theory - until you take into account that the rags is manuted .com

All I see is that the MEN has an article relating to Rooney's 5 yellow card offences, how does that fit in with the agenda.

It will be because they don't have to convince anyone that City are from Manchester.....bit of brainwashing me thinks.

Always get Man U from rag fans

Always get City from blues


My 7 year old argues that we can't say we support city because it might mean Norwich City or Stoke City, but I explain their is only 1 real City

I was very surprised to see that article - but it does highlight the fact that Rooney and the likes of Fellaini are treated differently to players of other clubs. So much for the FA and their referees being impartial ?

And the media over their selection as to who gets the 24 hour rolling replays and who gets airbrushed over.
