Watching the derby from the stretford end

Done it over 20 times, as a consequence of my family all being rags and me being able to get tickets more readily that way.

In a weird sort of way when we score it's even more enjoyable because:-

1. you can watch the City fans going apeshit like some sort of voyeur

2. you are among your enemy whilst they are suffering

3. you are free to slag off their players for the next ten minutes, again in the company of scum fans (I especially like this one)

4. because you have to sit there you, can actually feel the joy coursing through your veins. It's a real zen moment

5. you can get out at the final whistle

Goater in '03 was my favourite moment as I was right next to the City fans.
'08 a close second.
2-2 in '85 was great too

Didn't enjoy '94 quite as much though.

Can't go on Saturday as I've got a meeting I can't get out of which I made when I thought the game was going to be on the Sunday. I am absolutely gutted, but I have been convinced for a number of weeks we will win. This weekend has made me even more sure of that.
 
I was sat in the Stretfod End for the 5-0 and the only two things that spring to mind are a) make sure you've had sufficient alcohol and b) make sure you're accompanied by a rag. However, as I reckon we will be winning the game neither of these may actually be useful. (If you jump up when we score you'll get thrown out, so unless we score a winner in the last 5 minutes sit on your hands.)
 
I remember being in the Stretford paddock when Brightwell(what a goal) equalised it was full of blues and the police had to put a cordon around us, anyone else remember being in there.

ill pay you £100 if you bring me back that 34/35 year banner

Anyone who gets that banner! Will make more than £100! A nice piece in the sun you'd get 5 or 10 times that amount! But it would be quality if someone gets that banner!

I don't want anyone to take that banner until we win a Cup. It will be so much more pleasurable and worth the wait.

I so want to shove it down their cunting throats for the right reasons.

And we will.
