Considering they have only 10 fans, that's a lot of posts about United.2 months old and 4280 posts, seriously?
Bluemoon goes into Meltdown

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
I think one big contributing factor is them being fully aware that the only reason they were chosen was because of what their biggest rival achieved and not of their own importance
Hell it could have been any team Sunderland had more history then them for gods sake
Knowing that them sheikhs chose them to use our name and make clout has kinda warped their minds
Feel bad for them to be honest they became everything they claimed they weren't and then some

Do we think bluemoon look on here like we look at them?
Who cares about bluemoon? I do not understand the interest in what they think about United or anything.
out of interest what do you define as history? as I'm not sure in what way Sunderland had more history than City, yes that had won more 1st Division league titles and both clubs we're formed around the same time but what other history is more history?
It's not for caring about, it's for laughing at.
As of the time you were bought by the sheiks, Sunderland had 6 league titles to your 2.
A more devoted local fanbase also.
They fill their stadium more regularly too.
So football history is just about league titles, interesting
Not entirely. Your history, for example, also (largely) involves being founded in the same city as United. This illustrious aspect of your history led to the sheiks buying your club and ploughing in over a billion pounds of transfer money. But for this glorious part of your history, City would still be stuck on 2 league titles.
Don't flatter yourself, I didn't support city for the trophies and I doubt the Sheiks were that bothered about anything to do with United when purchasing City as they also looked at Newcastle, and football history is far more than just titles as for example if it wasn't for City there is a decent chance United could have folded and then there is Manchester Central who could also have scuppered United way back when
Just switched onto their Champions League game tonight. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more dire atmosphere for a European night. Its like a testimonial. It’s just embarrassing.
You tell us. Does your football history consist of more than just Colin Bell?
You're having an absolute laugh and kidding yourself if you don't think you being our neighbours wasn't a MASSIVE reason you got chosen for the lottery win. They wanted to replicate great local rivalries. It was a huge factor, just embrace it and own it.
Yeah I'd say so, Bert Trautmann or Tommy Hutchinson are better quiz questions than Colin Bell anyway
Why you watching Man City???
Strange.
My mistake. Were it not for United, the sheiks might have bought Newcastle instead, and Newcastle would be nearing double figures in titles, while City would be stuck on 2.
I think 3500 of those pages were them celebrating the signing of Ronaldo and gloating on the Utd thread
More than likely, but when I started supporting city 40 years ago it wasn't for what they had won in the past and if they were still stuck on 2 league titles of still be supporting them as would many others, most teams don't have fans who support clubs for winning trophies and most have a rich history even without counting trophies, if I'd wanted to be a trophy hunter i'd have been a Liverpool fan back in the early 80's
Flicked on and off. You’re not going to call me a”raggy blue” are you..?!
After Pep's comments, their Etihad Atmosphere thread 20/21 (I can't believe they have an "atmosphere" thread....but not only that, they have one for each season!)
This one is brilliant.......Tickets were available for £17.50 last night but he wants them to be more affordable!

Lack of Computer courses is the problem....
Pep is playing 4D chess with the fans....
Desperate to win it, but not desperate to win it....
They had 53,000 last night apparently according to CEO of Specsavers...
They are still in Covid lockdown....
City fans are from Manchester.....
Some got really lucky with a bargain ticket once in a lifetime price....
They've all lost their jobs apparently....

It's because the stewards are too violent...It's not safe to go to the ground.
Even though they've all lost their jobs and don't have a computer degree to order tickets and can't afford £17.50, they all still managed to buy a ticket but simply couldn't make it....
I thought they all lived in Manchester....should be able to get home in 20 minutes.....apparently fans aren't ready to go back to live footy. They need some live footy watching lessons first.

This bloke hasn't been relevant for twenty-five years and is the biggest bandwagon supporter. Love seeing him tweet about United like some sort of small-time loser.
Just imagine, for one moment, him saying this as the coach of Bayern or Barca? Brutal.
While he was at Bayern, there was a discussion about the atmosphere in the stadium. But he did not discuss it, this was left to Hoeneß:
Difference between atmosphere an actual empty seats.
Fans not being ready to go to live football seems to be an issue only bothering City, funny that.
And if it wasn't for john Henry Davies and ironically Man City donations your club might not exist and Sunderland might have had your success
Its humiliating. An absolute embarrassment for a club that has thrown literally everything at being relevant. Supporters groups talking about covid and childcare it's absolutely laughable. A very successful middle Eastern business, a nothing club
City fans could only dream of something like this, 10 mins before kick off on Saturday.
Stop flicking yourself to Man City!
It's hard though because fans travelling from the UAE would have to travel for hours to see their local club.
Chelsea fans were upset with Mourinho one time back in 2015 when, after a game away at QPR of all teams, said he wishes to have an atmosphere at the Bridge similar what he'd just experienced at Loftus Road. I think Klopp said something similar about Anfield a few years ago. Most big clubs have problems with atmosphere in way or another, some have it worse than others, but I can't think of any other club who win major trophies regularly, that have such a big problem with attendance.
It’s comedy gold
Ha ha City fans clogging up the talk shows to tell everybody how hard it is to get tickets and banging on about have
ind 32,000 at Maine Road (capacity 80,000) in the third division. That obviously included away fans too. What ever spin they put in it, they just aren’t a big enough club. Only ‘local working class fans’, well a bloke called Talksport from Blackpool and another from Harrogate which isn’t local. They cannot defend it, their own manager begging for fans. They may put on free buses from Stockport this Saturday.

What makes it worse is Man City have invested so much money in the community and on the brand image of the club to increase its popularity!
