If we are not the Rags' main rivals, why did they - for years and years - print City's place in the table in bold type in United Review? Yep, there were always two teams in bold type, us and them but strangely, never Liverpool.

I must say that even as a kid I used to think it a bit sad. We never put another team in bold type in our Programme, never.

Surprised we would see City’s name in bold in the match day program as Swales was too tight to pay for the extra ink.
 
Whilst it is a good achievement to have gone through the PL season unbeaten away from the swamp, I wonder how much of that is due to the assistance which they have undoubtedly received from the officials.

Dubious penalties given for them , dubious decisions for penalties/free kicks not given against them. Without those question marks , I wonder exactly where they would have ended up in the league ?

I shouldn't really be surprised because it is the same season upon season - rags getting help from the officials , who would have thought it ?

They've always been gifted a goal when they've been up against it.

Fuckin hell remember that, the only other good thing about rags in the 60s was they put a free copy of the “Football LeagueReview” in their programs always pissed off we didn’t do it

4 of our 7 title wins, 1968 2012 2018 2021 (1937 was Charlton, and 2014 and 2019 was Liverpool). Plus we finished second to United in 2013.

That’s now the joint most times that two clubs have finished 1+2 together, either way round, at the top of the league in English football history.

United+Chelsea and United+Arsenal have finished 1+2 5 times
City+Liverpool and United+Liverpool have finished 1+2 4 times

Thank you for confirming this, I,m so pleased that we have prevented them from winning so many more titles, it must really sting for the poor rags. It's almost worth them coming second just so we can rub their noses in it.

Don't forget the goal v West Ham that was about 5 yards over the sideline in the build up!
 
I see Neil goebbels Ashton is at it again, interview with the Sheffield Herman Munster saying he joined the red vermin cause they’re the biggest and best club in the universe over us, fuck all to do with the fact that we wouldn’t pay the ridiculous fee, they really are a set of deluded cunts. Enjoy the two bob Thursday night final Maguire you thick yorkshire ****!

It's scandalous the sh*t they've got away with.

When you think there is a £12m difference in prize money between coming 2nd and 8th (where with a bit of luck, they would have been without assistance from the PL/PiGMOL), plus qualification for the CL it's nothing short PL sponsored fraud to ensure the Rag's remain relevant as it's 'good for the product'.

Plus if you watch the All or Nothing video Pep thought he was slow.

Not sure how much they pay Ashton but he manages to spin so much positive spin for them on the basis of absolutely fuck all.

It is clear we droppped out of the Maguire transfer when the fee became way over his worth, presumably with a salary to match.

The PR teams employed by the rags ( andlikewise the dippers ) have to be the most creative and deluded to arrive at the blatant propaganda and lies which they regulary push out to feed the billions of braindead lemmings which they regard as their supporters.
