Love it when those cunts lose. Well done, David.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Ha ha ha ha!

Still shit. Ten Bob can't polish that turd.

I despise the Dippers these days more than the Rags, but there's an abundance of cheer when The Theatre of Screams is subjected to a home defeat.

I don't. Never will. Still hate the Scouse vermin though.

It's close..but nothing puts a spring in my step like a rag defeat. ;)

Sometimes I feel like that, but then have to remind myself that if the Rags were our main rivals in the way the Dippers are now... would I despise the Rags more than I currently despise the Dippers... 100% YES !!

My intense hatred of all things rag is part of my DNA. It cannot be altered in any way because despising those bastards is a part of me, like my favourite foods, favourite beer (all of 'em), favourite tv programmes, etc.
Hating the dippers is a relatively new experience for me because they are only a transient irritation, been in the footballing wilderness for so long most people outside of their cultish bubble viewed them as an irrelevance: a team that had their day many many years ago and were no longer among England's elite. And I dare say once they go back to being mid-table mediocrity again I won't be giving them a second thought.

But it's a different case with those other plastic çunts who also play in red. My intense dislike and animosity towards that club and its followers was as strong and as vibrant a part of me long before the umbilical cord was severed.
I expect the midwife even said to my mum: "Congratulations Mrs KentBlue, you have given birth to one of the most blinkered, bigoted, prejudiced rag-haters this side of the equator has ever seen. Well done. He's going to grow up infested with dogmatic hatred for any and all things rag."
And my mum would have smiled down at me proudly and said: "That's my boy!"

The rags were awful last night so they have to look at themselves. Poor decision on the pen though, hard for them to complain to much as that is about 9-1 in there favor for dodgy decisions so far this season.

How sweet was it to listen to that deluded rag commentator on bt. I think he called it one of the worst decisions ever or along those lines. Its a poor decision but it did hit his arm that's just rag propaganda. Also making out the tackle on Antony a stonewall red, a foul that was a lesser version than what Trippier did to KDB and the whole media said right to overturn.

Is it just me or does that Antony look like he is trying to be a ****? Reminds me of Richarlison, will fit right in there.

The Sky match report claiming that the stadium was understandably under capacity… as if they’d sold the place out.

Anyone know what the attendance was? I have tried to find it but surprise , surprise I am having no joy!

WTF is that about!

Casemero asked his taxi driver to go via the Etihad statues on his way home after the game, so he could finally get close to David Silva

Apparently Casemero struggled to keep pace with El Mago's statue!

 

[Winchester]

No idea

 

[Blue_Rossy]

can't believe this shower of shite are one win away from going joint top if we draw and others loose! how do the bastards keep smelling of roses!!!!

Just read their match report on the BBC website. It's the tamest and possibly shortest match report I've ever seen. No critique in it whatsoever. Apparently, they lost to a disputed penalty but Tranny had a goal disallowed and missed with a header. That's it. No further comments.
The scum reporters at the Beeb must be really hurting.
Scum.

To be fair - its difficult to know sport still goes on looking at the beeb website. I dont have BT sport so looking for the football scores last night was quite a chore. Nothing on radio 5 and the beeb sport app had about 6 stories all on teh queen you had to scroll past to get to the actual football, then it was just scores and stats. No live comments or anything.

It seems inevitable that games will get called off this weekend but nothing yet.

It’s a general paring back of any reporting on anything. I think something happened yesterday

Their match last night was punctuated by excuses from BT that the ground was half empty because of the Queens passing, they never miss a trick.

Do you think the report would have been so brief had they had a convincing win?
I doubt it.
Anyway, I hope you agree with my sentiment:- scum.

Arsenals win report was also brief - and also had no live text. It’s the bbc mourning, they’ve had 60 years of planning.

There is nothing to read into it on the bbc about bias towards united today.

BT on the other hand… saying the stands are empty due to the death… nope they hadn’t sold.
