Bury fan here! Just wanted to congratulate you on the most amazing league win ever, it will never be forgotten. I was dying for you to win and when it looked like it was slipping away I was absolutely gutted I'd have to watch United lift the trophy again in front of a Blasé, mediocre celebration. Then that incredible 5 minutes and the pure emotion that came with it was a complete and utter joy to watch, it was a victory for every real football fan up and down the country.
I was at Main Rd for probably one of your lowest moments, when we beat you 1-0 the season you were relegated to the 3rd tier. It's up there as one of my high points of watching the Shakers but I remember how distraught your fans were at the time. Your club was in a mess but your fans stuck with them and you came back stronger and the rest is history. Fans who have seen those lows appreciate the highs so much more, it makes the good time so much sweeter and nothing came across more in those celebrations on Sunday. You could quite literally see all the pain drown in a sea of pure ecstasy. I don't think the modern United fan will ever feel what you felt on Sunday, they just don't understand.
I do know some decent United fans but can't believe the bitterness I’ve read over the last few days from the majority. The stuff they've been spouting about you buying the title is laughable. United has rode the crest of "the premier league world domination" wave since it was formed, pimping itself out around Asia, The Middle east, Africa. Selling their soul for a brand, creating an Impenetrable gulf. Then they moan when some rich Arab sits up and takes notice. They helped create the global monster that is the premier league and they need to learn to live with the consequences. In my opinion the money has evened things up and created a much more exciting league. United fans need to get used to losing and losing gracefully.
anyway guys, massive CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
