When you think about all the moments that City consider great, they're all to do with us aren't they?
The Denis Law back heel, 1-6, 5-1, I don't think they'd be anywhere near as excited about winning the league in the last moment if it wasn't at the expense of us, when do they ever mention 2014? Carlos Tevez signing from us. Shaun Goater going past Gary Neville. Shaun Wright Phillips scoring to beat us 4-1.
I think these would all be in their top 20 moments...if they could find 20. They'd try to argue otherwise if you told them that, but they know that it's right.
On a side note, you can't really take anything seriously from a fanbase that I've heard still argue that Kinkladze was better than Cantona.

Stopped reading after 'Fernandinho is pretty average.'
This is my favourite one. It's not even paranoia anymore when you get to the point of fabricating things like this. Obsessed.
It's not fabrication on that one.
Dortmund was nowhere on the BBC site. No match report, result not findable on results page, no highlights, no interviews. The only news piece about it appeared possibly 1/2 days after, but that was headlined about Mourinho, who happened to comment on it, and was far down the list of the days stories. Even the rolling news page the day after barely mentioned it.
Compare and contrast with the Galatasary coverage - match report, extra reports, video highlight, next day rolling news coverage. All prominent or top news on the site.
Blinkered maybe, correct, yes.
Mods can snipeathon be relocated to a different thread so that there is a right of reply without accusations of derailing the BMIM thread?
There was no proper match report of the Galatasaray game. There was an article with Zlatan and Jose quotes which mentioned some of the happenings in the game. Then there was a separate video link for Zlatan's goal.
Same goes for the Dortmund game. There was an article with Jose quotes which mentioned the happenings in the game. Neither were standard BBC reports, no supporting stats or anything, no detail about the opposing team. Same goes for City's pre-season games. As far as I am aware, the BBC have never done proper match reports for pre-season friendlies. They are very brief, but they are definitely there.
However, the Jose/Dortmund article was at the top of the BBC page that afternoon after the game. It definitely wasn't days later. I remember it well because the article is how I found out the result when I got home from work. The result was also in the 'results' column at the side of the United page. It's still there. The Galatasaray win is not in the results column though.
Funnily enough, City's defeat to Bayern isn't in their results column either. But I really don't care. I certainly won't be contacting the BBC about it like those psychopaths on BM.
How are they reacting to Bailley's latest "City called but I chose United because of Mourinho" comment?
Good. The less of them I see the better.
Why do City fans come across as so much more bitter than Liverpool fans? I know they're our local rivals and we have a long history of rivalry with them but historically and even recently we have more of a competitive rivalry with Liverpool and until the late 90's we were always considered to be behind them in terms of being the biggest club in England. You'd just expect Liverpool fans to be more bitter considering we've recently overtook their Premier League league title count and even during our worse spell since the 80's, we are still better than them but they instead just come across as deluded.
City fans on the other hand hate us and are so bitter about our previous successes despite them being better than us now. It can't be because they know more United fans who boast about United because no United fans live in Manchester and all City fans do apparently. Not sure what it is but they come across as more vindictive and jealous about how big we are.

It's a delusion among local city fans that I think starts in school when the minority of city fans love to inform the United majority that in fact it is the other way around and that City are the real Manchester side. This delusion continues throughout their life, until they are so sure that they are better and bigger than United that such an obvious lie (told enough times) becomes the truth.
They can't bear the fact that they were bought out because United exist, not that City do. Had we not been their cross-town hyper neighbour, Everton would have Aguero up front right now.
Some numpty at Bluemoon posted this!
Real quotes are real. Put words next to someones face, and they become indisputable.
They are fake quotes quite obviously. Only a moron would think otherwise.
It is not.
Are those quotes real?
Obviously I'm a moron
Yeah because Fergie would really say that Pogba 'looks like the gay one from Boyz 2 Men'.
To be fair, that is actually quite funny. It's not as if the guy who posted that really wants anyone to believe that shite. Just a little banter.
He was pretty good. Everything lease he said was reasonable though..
It is. They definitely did a live commentary of the Dortmund game and I'm fairly sure there was a piece on it afterwards too.
The only reasons they even had additional coverage of the Galatasaray game is because a high profile player was making their debut and scored.
Probably the usual claims that SSN made it up because they're anti city...even though the player himself said it.
Theyre a special bunch I mean who can say, with a straight face, that Pogba is not worth between 85 to 100mill but try and legitimately claim stones is worth half roughly? They'll be claiming sane is easily worth 35m or whatever next despite having never seen him play besides the euros
I'm sure the word over there was that the only reason Laporte signed a new contract was to force City to pay a release clause. He wanted to do the right thing by Bilbao & let them make as much money as possible. When's the presser Bitters
Someone responded to his tweet with this:
no Fergie used his corrupt contacts at the beeb to put up a retrospective page and change the date on it the whisky nosed feck!
Nah, think it's one of George Weah's Cousin photoshop efforts
It's because as they were 'rising' to the top, they wanted us to decline at a similar rate. Yet even though we've been shite since Fergie left, we haven't completely gone away and that's what really rancours them the most. Now that we have Mourinho who has made some quality signings, their dominance is far from assured and they're more concerned about what we're going to do rather than focusing on their own sorry outfit. They couldn't even enjoy the appointment of Guardiola without us taking the gloss off it with Jose and Ibra. They really are a bitter bunch.
Some sad bluemoaner posted this...
"I know it's easier to spell than Ibrahimovic, but every time I see him referred to as 'Zlatan'(which is everywhere he is mentioned) by their fans makes me cringe.
They love than first name shit, they must think it makes them look like hardcore fans or something when it just makes them look like sad wankers."
followed by...
reply 1..."Kun agrees."
reply 2..."As does Dave"
reply 3..."As does Vinnie, Yaya and Joe"
ha ha, what an idiot!

Can't imagine they'll be too happy with that. Would probably get a ban if he was a relatively new member.
Rag.
Made me laugh watching those Pep taxi videos- one bloke talking about how the whole City is buzzing and another going on about how Manchester is blue- we could be starved of trophies for another 10 years and they would still be our little ginger step kid.
I presume they are all happy today seeing as they have just signed one of the most promising and exciting youngsters in world football? (Sane) I have to say i'm gutted Jose wasn't in for him and extremely jealous Citeh got him. I think Pep has made some pretty solid signings so far and I can see they are going to be one feck of a side if and when they eventually click. They are certainly going to be the favourites for the Premiership and could easily improve on their CL record with their current squad, and he hasn't finished buying yet. Have to wait to see who Jose ends up with at the end of the window, but so far I think City definitely have a better looking squad. Just my honest opinion.
I'd agree with all of this.
It always confuses me as I keep expecting them to start shagging.
I disagree in all of this and have covered it in a longer post in the City discussion thread. Their team is good, not the best.
Well done.
The best
