Old money has always looked down its nose at new money. Move on a generation and they're inviting them round for dinner and laughing at their jokes.Merseyside Red said:Why does it matter to you lads so much that they hate us more? :D it's not exactly a big deal, like.
Anyway: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.redcafe.net/f6/rivalry-matters-more-you-city-liverpool-364717/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.redcafe.net/f6/rivalry-matte ... ol-364717/</a> the majority there share Scholes' view. Hope we stuff 'em on Sunday of course.
Merseyside Red said:I'm not saying we are their biggest rivals in the mind of every United fan, but to the majority there is no doubt we are. I know a dozen or so Man Utd fans and they all hate us more than they do City. They despise Leeds as much as they do City in the case of a few.
Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things. Right now the two manc clubs are the best two teams in the country by a distance, and I won't deny I'm jealous and am desperate as fuck for us to get back up there some time in the relatively near future.
I'm happy City won the title last season, like. If we can help you out (as well as ourselves obviously haha) on Sunday then fantastic. Anything to stop them winning the title while we're a 'sleeping giant'. Don't want them to get too far ahead of us, like.
Suarez should have too much for Vidic if he plays, Vidic tends to stuggle with strikers of his ilk. Sturridge could be a factor, he's definitely a goal threat and we will need to be clinical. We bossed their midfield in September but the harsh Shelvey red card gave them a massive boost at an important moment. Even if we can control the midfield on Sunday it'll be difficult unless we take our chances. van Persie and Hernandez are probably the two most clinical strikers in the Premier League.
Some of us are grateful he'll never play here.mscenterh750 said:RVP mania still rife on bluemoon !. We ain't got him, we ain't never gonna get him, so for ducks sake can we stop all this pining for him !, he's gone just like your first ever fit bird ! and It's now time to move on.

Scousers even write the word 'like' after every sentence?
Citysmith said:The Manchester United game against Liverpool is still bigger than the Manchester United game against us.
The reason I say this is I was down in Devon last time they played and the Plymouth was like a ghost town as they divided themselves into their different plastic groups.
My stance is that in the Manchester region the derby is bigger but down in Devon, Ireland, Timbucktoo the plastics have their colours dyed.
Mind you to shoot a huge whole in my stance just simply reply 'What was the highest ever TV audience for an English league game and it was us against them when they couldn't even manage a shot on target :o)
My answer to any rag this year about the last derby is 'just imagine if your team had shown that comitment against us last season you'd be Champions, you must be gutted'. It gives them a whole lot to think about :o)
