We have really got to them

There's a rag postman in Marple who goes apeshit every year with all the season cards he has to deliver. With a bit of luck this year he'll jump off the viaduct !!!

And when United actually get around to winning something again, it will be 'City back in their place, Ferguson sees off City, just as he did with Chelsea!'

Revisionist history experts.

Every United youngster is a worldy, every defeat has a legitimate excuse, and everyone outside of a few, fucking lap it up as gospel.

I simply pose this question, what narrative will they paint when he either drops dead on the bench or his armchair, and all because his ego won't allow him to trust anyone to spend the next 20 years keeping us at bay.

When he pops his clogs, he will be their Munich for the new age.

I'm hoping he'll keel over at a Derby, preferably when they're 4 or 5 down. It's what he deserves.

We're City, let's be more gracious than the Rags, and a bit more imaginative. I want Taggert to live forever and never win his 20th title. I want him to see his successors fail, his fan base dwindle, I want him to see everything he's built at Utd crumble, I want him to live a long, healthy and miserable life.

This....weve suffered for a very very long time. I want them to fade slowly - a long painful death. I want them to get to the odd final and be soundly thrashed by us. I want them to go into a competetion knowing there is no hope in hell they that they will win it. As TPF says - I want Fergie to see it and the fans to experience it. I don't wish him harm -that would make me like them. He did what he did and said what he said for his club - for Gods sake, we did most of it to ourselves (or our owners did).

I'm lucky - I've seen it once and I believe I am going to see it again - only this time its sooooooo much better.

The only conversation I've had with a rag since we won the title went along the lines of him saying "well done" and "it's great for Manchester that both teams were competing"
Then we got onto the nitty gritty of the ins and outs of last season and what'll happen next.
Me - "Vieira was right when he said bringing back Scholes was an act of desperation"
Him - "No. We needed someone and who could ferguson buy with the experience and know how that was available and who could fit straight into the team" (which I sort of half agree with)
Me - Well you hugely over achieved and credit to ferguson for that, but next season I think it's ours to lose. Chelsea are in transition and you're, as we saw, not the team you once were"
Him - "Well ferguson's going to spend over £100m this summer. This Japanese lad looks the bollocks. Modric is coming and maybe Sneijder"
Me - "Well even if he does spend that kind of dosh and I don't believe he will as you aint got a pot to piss in, there's got to be a bedding in period for the players. They all aint going to hit the ground running"
Him - "Well we overachieved last season, we weren't good at all and these signings have to make us a better team, we can't really play any worse"
Me - "You can't rely on new signings. What happens if they don't adjust straight away and you play to the true level of your current squad?"
Him -

well he didn't say anything, he just had a blank look on his face

There can't be many United fans, apart from the daftest of kids, who don't realise that City have knocked them off their perch for the foreseeable future. Our team is better than theirs and we are richer than God. It isn't complicated maths. Until they free themselves from debt they can't compete.

You can see it in Fergie's eyes every time we outplay them. He was crazy not to retire 12 months ago. We are sullying his legacy.

Your last point, he fucking knows it, and it kills him inside.

The only sad thing is the cnut won't live long enough to see City become the biggest club in this country over the next two decades.

Oh how marvellous if the cnut did live to be 100. Having witnessed 30 years of Blue dominance, he could finally pass on............as miserable as fuck.

Whilst being a passenger to Barrow yesterday with a work mate ( a Liverpool fan ) he gets a call on his hands free from a dealer ( a United fan ) at first I just listen to their Liverpool / United banter whilst staying silent, then decide to have some fun and start to write things down for my mate to "Rag bait" with.

My Mate :" so what about City next year ?"
Rag :" I'm pretty upbeat, we've just signed that kid from Crewe and that Chinese lad"

MM : Have you heard that on the radio today ?
Rag : No what's that ?

MM : City close to signing Bale and RVP
Rag : Silence

MM : Hello, you still there ??
Rag : sorry mate yeh, is that right ?

MM : Yeh, apparently that's why Harry left cos the deal was done with Adebayor and 30 million
Rag : Fucking bastards, I hate City, even more than you lot now.

The despair in his voice was the best feeling since the Aguero goal.

Rag : They've got no history anyway, just another Chelsea, they will come and go, not like us two, eh mate.
MM : I don't know you know, those Arabs are here to stay, I've resigned myself to the fact that City will be the team for the next 20 years mate.

Rag. : Silence ... Then ... Do you know what mate, you might be right, god I hate them.

PRICELESS, I wish I would of recorded it

This is how it feels to be City

Come and go just like Chelsea ?? remind the dildo who just won Champs league.

 

[Q-Blue]

I've got a Rag mate, in his mid 40's, who I've been giving stick to. He's struggling with the reality that it may all becoming apart. He's giving me all of the shit ' I always be a Red, Red till I'm dead etc.

My response was 'Well we'll see about that, you say it now, but you haven't actually been fucking tested yet!'

I then got thinking, as he (like millions of others) doesn't go to that many games, how will he/they concede as such, when it all goes wrong?
Will they really follow another team? Or will they lose interest in football all together? Or will they just keep shouting at the telly in their own homes and then just keep very quiet when out in public? Or will they just turn all of their attention to hating City?

What does the future hold for them?

 

[mrt4919]

I have refused to talk to rags for over 20 years.
I just don't know any anymore. I don't live where I grew up either.
Rags fans who are my kids dads I just don't talk to.
Why bother with the cnuts.

Always thought it was me who was this extreme though I did know one rag a few years back, used to call him "Tocken". He never worked out why.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

I like the fact that our era of global domination has doubled.

 

[salfordpaul]

very good point q-blue that i've thought about them.

its in their dna to "watch winners" so what are they going to do if, and its a big if at the moment, that they go a considerable time supporting a team that are perhaps 3rd or 4th in the premiership. These aren t the matchday goers i'm talking about, but onto them...the ones that goto 1 or two games a season...same applies, they didn t buy into nearly teams

will be very interesting to watch this and indeed check out if there's a slip in attendance at OT over the next few years.
