Then, In December 2005, I moved and worked in Manchester.
I subsequently met the most obnoxious and arrogant bunch I had ever met.
Monday morning at work comments..."we only won 2-0, should have been more..poor performance"...to not even being allowed to talk football if they lost.
My hatred started to grow, and I used to delight in their defeat, I still remember the day at work City signed Robinho, they were complete arseholes.
I believe the Sunderlands fan reaction as Aguero scored and you won the league was representative of the country.
I now have a good few City mates...and I detest them as much as Newcastle.

Some seem consumed with hatred for united in pretty much every respect. From the supporters, to the club or anyone remotely associated with it, now or in the past. They turn a blind eye to Shaun Goater, Denis Law and possibly Carlos Tevez's past association with united and occasionally make some begrudging compliment about Gary Neville's punditry abilities, but they're pretty sure about united's place in the food chain.
Others like to fall over themselves to appear fair and like to make sanctimonious comments about things that blues referred to in the category above have posted about united, seeing themselves as the forum's moral compass. They occasionally smirk about comments relating to Rooney and elderly prostitutes, and sometimes make some pithy post about united fans all being from London, but they secretly think to hate your enemy is a spiritual experience.
There are going to be so many different perspectives on our local neighbours for a whole number of reasons.
What's yours?
