The few United fans I know can't believe they're still in with a chance of winning the league. I've never heard them so negative. I suspect what we're seeing is the gradual decline of a decaying empire, like we saw with Liverpool. They're still picking up points as some teams are beaten before they take to the pitch. This won't last forever, and without a serious refinancing of that club, they are heading in one direction only. Personally, I don't care what team Ferguson puts out against us, I think we'll do them over two legs because we're the better team. And it's a long, long time since I've been able to say that.

Your logic is just flawed.
City don't like United.
Person expressed an opinion not entirely negative about United.
Person doesn't like City.
It's just the most infuriatingly stupid thing on this forum.
I don't even know what the last thing means. What's a waller? I don't build walls, but I am a programmer.
I dont want to fall out with you matey,but to have posted over 3 thousand posts on a City forum,and you cant adhere to people on here HATING/SLAGGIN off our greatest ever rivals,take a reality check,quickly,
P/S - a A waller means like a boffin...does that make it clearer ??
Whats a boffin ??

United have arguably their worst team since 1993, but you wouldn't bet on them not finishing in the first three, AND they have the distraction of playing in the Champions league which we don't.
Damocles made a perfectly valid point..(imo)

mcfc_nick said:yes, they dont have the strongest of sides at the minute but as long as they have rooney up front they will score goals. I cant stand him, but ive gotta say he is one world class footballer
Agreed. Unbelievable footballer, and he won the game for them today almost single handedly.
As long as they have Rooney up front and Fergie in the dugout, they will be there or thereabouts, even if people have correctly stated that the rest of their squad is (by their standards) average.
Of course, the fact that without Rooney they'd be no better than Villa or Spurs is significant in itself.

exactly right the myth that is the so called top 4 built up over years by sky and the media some teams role over because its utd, hull were unlucky today and had a real go with a bit more composure in front of goal and some luck they could have got a resultwaspish said:this rags team might be bobbins but its the mentality of the opposing team when playing them! the player's are more apprehensive and nervous because who they are playing I'm convinced if hull were playing say blackburn today playing like that they would off beat them most teams are beaten before they kick of because it the rags.
teams just need to believe they can beat utd etc and i think we are seeing more of that this season (wolves are exempt from this post)

Ye really do hate Man U. Like I know ye're living with them and have put up with them and their success but ye're level of hate is on another level. I don't like them, but I can say that they're a good team.
You know I've always found that sligtly different to other sports, I mean there are a lot of teams I really don't like, hate, but I respect them you know, well more like, I recognise them as good if they're good, or great if they are great.
Ye don't.
And it's just insults after insults after insults, you can't say a positive word about them without being called a RAG, while on other sites, say you insult the mighty Kilkenny, you get called bitter, or if you were a Munster fan and you gave out about Leinster last season, you'd be told that they deserve their chance, we've had our time in the sun, beat us fair and square, they were excellent..etc. You wouldn't hear anything like that on this site, or in football culture in general. It's just a totally different type of attitude..and I don't really care to be fair, but it's interesting enough.
Like, to say that Man U are where they are based on just ref decisions is ridiculous and biased to say the least. I mean hate them, despise them all ye want, but that suggestion is ridiculous and impossible.
EVERY team, City included win some and loose some decisions from refs, and ya sometimes top teams get a decision at home that lower down teams would. But to say that they are where they are because of refs, couldn't happen.
It may be a "poor" team compared to what they've had, and to be fair, I couldn't really care less whether it is or not. They are second, and they could well finish first. At the end of the day Fergie still manages to get results out of them time and time again, so they can't be that bad.
Sometimes you can have great players, but a bad team, us in a way, especially last season, and then there are the great teams, mightn't be the strongest team of indivudals on there, but individuals win you a few games, great squads win you titles.
I mean, at the end of the day, who really cares whether it's the worst United team in a while, the only thing that matters to me is that there are 5 teams above us and I really couldn't care less who it is.
And on another note for people to say they know a load of united fans think the same, well..I don't really believe that. Nothing like the Man U fans I know.

Rag.
Just proved my point, not once did I show any sort of support for United but any sort of half positive comment is followed by being insulted, called a RAG.
