That it was a little petty? Yeah. I mean at the moment I was more just shocked that Ferdinand had actually scored and delighted on account of beating Liverpool and all that.
I disagree with why you announced it at the same time. I couldn't really care about Sane, I didn't watch the match but I guess gloating too much about knocking a smaller team out of the cup when by all accounts they gave you a game is poor form. Not the end of the world but ho hum.
To be fair I have no idea why you replied to my post. My issue was with a style of argument which is essentially just saying "well you're talking about it, SO THERE". Unless you took umbridge with me saying City have done a number of silly things, like all clubs do. To be fair it seems City are the only club who's fans aren't even open to the mildest of criticism or jest about them.
You beat us 2-1 the last time we played. Hardly a caning.
Unless you mean in general? I actually think we have come on a great deal this year and I'm very pleased with the football we've been playing. So urm.
Also is it a conspiracy that he shushed them? Tbf I haven't seen any pictures so it might be.
We'll have to disagree on this as I thought what Neville did was great, as was Adebayor's celebration against Arsenal.
Why would you disagree on the announcement, do you really think some genius at City thought "Hey you know what we'll do.... We'll intentionally go head to head with one of the biggest clubs in the world announcing signing one of the best players in the league by announcing KDB's extension. Because that will make no one care about United signing Sanchez and everyone care about us extending a player who had time on his current deal anyway?"
Where is the logic in that.
I replied to your post because you are trying to make out City fans are needlessly defending the club, except we only defend what we know is right. I'd say plenty of City fans have given the club tons of criticism where they deserve it. If you think City fans are the only club whose fans aren't even open to a jest about them, I'll sum up my last 2 warnings I got on here.
Caf member: City always get the easy draws, fecking bribing the FA and Uefa for those easy draws...
Me: Both those easy draws (Bristol and Basel) already beat a much improved United this season. (cue loads of reports from Caf members)
Caf member: Courtois bummed KDB's wife.
Me: Not as bad as KDB bummed United. (as above).
I'd say both those are the very definition of not being able to deal with a jest.
Nobody was trying to deflect anything. If you think City thought they could steal United's thunder on Sanchez or would be dumb enough to try you are seriously misguided. What purpose to City's benefit could it possibly serve.
The nature of the game was a caning and was both clubs performances over the season. Yes, you have indeed come on in leaps and bounds this season just like City.
It's not a conspiracy what Sane did, but when half a forum are trying to put tons of small meaningless things together to try and make it into a bigger deal is exactly the kind of posting that leads to a BM like forum.
While your post isn't even close to the worst, or bad per se.. it was just the one at the bottom, stating the same things in a less ott way.
