Unless I had the same nightmare as you, I can assure you that you're bang on with that and it was their official website promoting it. I think it was 28 years, not 23, and I clearly remember those 2 whoppers Kirk and Tyrone out of Corrie with their mugs plastered on their website holding up cards with the number of years since we last won a trophy on them.

This club sponsored shit about our trophy drought went on for years over there as @Gary James pointed out on one of his Twitter posts the other week. I've no issue with the banner itself as that's just banter plus I always found it amusing how they put so much time and effort into taking the piss out of us, while at the same time claiming they didn't care about 'ikkle Citeh. No, it was their laughable double standards which came racing to the surface with all the wailing and gnashing of teeth that accompanied the unveiling of the Tevez poster - from both club and fans alike - that I'm calling the fuckers out on. Their club aided and abetted a campaign that lasted for fucking years, yet as soon as our club does one single thing in return the sad bastards can't take it and start lobbing that stupid fucking "small-time" phrase around.


Cheers mate for that, I've spent hours on google trying to find something with no success. Yes it does show the hypocrisy for that rancid club to officially take the piss after our club has helped them out in their hour of need on more than one occasion.

Pity they didn't replace the banner with a 43 year one, that would have been a double for Mancini.

City did a version of that with a rolling back feature if I recall!
 
How times have changed!

PEP OR JOSE? MOURINHO WINS THE POPULARITY CONTEST AHEAD OF MANC DERBY

  • @Ladbrokes poll.

    Ahead of the most-anticipated Manchester derby in years, we asked you to simply decide who you would rather have leading out your team on Saturday.

    The Special One came out on top, leaving tika-taka loving Pep behind.

Where are those people that voted for him hiding now I wonder
So even at a time when JM is not complete flavour of the month for all united fans they still demonstrate why the media focus on selling to their biggest subscriber audience.
 
You can. I have not seen any other club put up such a vile banner with the approval of the club to rub their nearest rivals noses in the dirt. Mancini will always be loved here because he understood how much we hated it and vowed to rip it down and he did. Brave words at the time in spite of the investment as we ha
Didn't David May or some **** organise a party on each anniversary of the 76 LC final or am I imagining it?
Yes he certainly did - but Liverpool have always been their main rivals though...........
 
Forgive me as I away in Shaktar but I thought I had read that the raggies were yet again late for the Juve match, even down to Peg getting off the bus and walking (what did the team do ?) anyway the reason I ask is the media seemed to have wiped this from history. If you search the internet it mentions the pitch invaders but not the kick off being 2 minutes late because they couldn't get from the real Old Trafford. I assume Uefa will be taking action, even they are not that bent..................... yes I know, I laughed as I typed it.
 
He was hosting one specific party IIRC, unforgivable for someone who claimed to be a Blue as a kid.

I’m pretty sure he was, I’m sure. I was at a family party over in Oldham as a kid when he was in his early Blackburn days, he was a decent lad, we were kicking about in the back garden and he was delighted I was a City fan.

Much like Liverpool that place is cult like.
