I don't think he's the sort of chap whose head would be turned by money alone, and they have nothing else to offer.

The rags are on a downward spiral and have been for a long time. You wouldn't know it from the media and press reports in this country - no bloody way. The red tops and Sly would have you believe that all is well there and that everybody is on board with the way the club is going. The signings they have made in the past few seasons have been absolutely brilliant: Weghorst was the new Messi, every single club in the world were prepared to pay whatever it takes to get Anthony, but of course he chose his 'childhood club.' Casemiro was another who chose the rags over the hundreds of offers he received from us, Barca, Real etc. But from the moment he was born he has dreamed of turning out for the vermin because they have always been the biggest and the best (we know this because Terry Christian keeps telling us this as well).

But if once, just the once, a hack in this country had the spine to tell the truth about what is really happening with the rags, if Sly and their sycophantic colleagues at the BBC had the guts to come out and confirm what we all know anyway, they could start again from scratch and get some professional organising going on there. Naturally I hope to fuck they don't, all the while those obnoxious bastards are up to their eyebrows in turmoil and debt the happier I will be. But if they don't stop believing in their own bullshit myth and start working at turning things around they could well disappear faster than a Russian politician with a difference of opinion at the Kremlin.

Great post fella.
So many truths in there.
 
Remember when these fuckers were winning it all?
They’d always be a gobshite ( I have a brother in-law who’s one) who knew better than gpc when they drew or lost either in the pub or workplace.
Big mouth opinions and how he knew so much about football and we always had to listen to his opinions. He would sneer and constantly take the piss about irrelevant City.
They now have something to moan about, yeah right, they’re pitiful to watch.
I love watching them get angrier and angrier as what they signed up for moves farther away. The infamous ‘this is manshernytid we’re talking about.’ is the new mantra that they cling to.
I wouldn’t miss the derby one bit if they went bust I fucking hate them and that will never stop. I am 60 next year and growing up in Ordsall a Blue was character building to say the least. I was living down south when they first started their domination in the 90’s and every other fucking idiot down there was a nytid fan it seemed.
I used to go and watch Posh when I wasn’t up here watching City even then there would be some dickhead in a rag shirt.
Cnuts the lot of them.

I was at a wedding night do last night and me and the wife were on a table that turned out to be full of rags (2 of them I knew as they're work mates)

Anyway, a few beers go down and the subject soon turns to football.

I dropped a bit of loaded question, purely for amusement with a touch of provocation. "Based on your start this season, will Ten Bob build on what was a fantastic season last season finishing 3rd"

Every one of them genuinely believed that last season was absolutely fantastic and were baffled at Ten Bob not being in with a shout of manager of the year. Apparently the love in with Pep is over the top as he's had the freedom and the funds to pretty much do as he wants.

Obviously I carried on as they were putty in my hands, asking more questions about their spend and particularly the signings that have come in since Ten Bob was manager.

The excuses and reasons why they didn't compete for the title and are unlikely to compete this season were hilarious. The manager hasn't really been backed, apparently he didn't want Casemiro (who they believe wants a move to Saudi), he demanded that Maguire is sold which hasn't happened and signings of De Jong, Kane and Rice were also demanded, which haven't materialised, leaving them with a squad that lacks in real quality and depth.

Apparently it's not a happy camp either.

I put to them that maybe Ten Bob is responsible for the overall happiness of the squad and maybe getting a tune out of the squad. Many of whom are his players with over 350 million being spent since he became manager. Throw in players that have shown that they're capable like Rashford, Sancho, Shaw, Wan Bissaka, Fernandez etc and it's hard for anyone who's not a utd supporter to have any kind of sympathy.

For about an hour I had these rags all trying to convince me that Ten Bob just hasn't been backed as he'd have wished and it was all the Glazers fault. All being said with sad faces and real fake concern in their voices whilst I'm pissing myself inside. This lot are completely deluded.

One of my work pals who I get on with and is a rag knew exactly what I was doing and called me a **** hahahaha.
