to all you manc “speccie” wiganers

Calm down young man……

It is understandable the need to see your competitors go the way of the ‘grave’ however, for me I take no pleasure in seeing some french, spanish, kraut….etc (you get my drift – ind in small letters) team win a prestigious trophy. Whoever it is (and it is now left to the southern muppets) I would prefer it to stay in this league……this is, after all, what we are trying to promote.

Clowns who jump up and down saying ManU and Citeh are out (let’s have a party) want to be lined up and shot outside their house in front of their family (c)copyright Clarkson………but you get my drift.

Love them or hate them…..they are hooooooge clubs…and they represent all of us too…..FFS I watched ManU beat Benfica on an old Black and White telly (when it was a completely different competition)and have been in love with ‘football’ ever since.

We have our team…..everyone hates others…….but when it comes to sticking it up the rest of Europe I want it to be from the E P L.

Our league…our team…..our way in the world.

Pity you have your puerile differences……

I’m with rodellagabomb on this, especially in the case of United. And not because of the club but their take everything for granted, whinging, moaning fans. You should’ve heard ’em on Five Live last saying Ferguson should resign. Wtf? They wanna support a team like ours year in, year out. Wouldn’t have minded seeing City kicking a few European arses in the later stages but they were unlucky.

B0110X to United and their fans I say (especially the ones from around here who look down on Latics fans as second class citizens or summat). I reckon we might nick a point off ’em on Boxing Day…….

Every credit to the pair of you (Tyld/Banjo)….…and it’s a fair point made about Fergusson. For me I think he has been in the job too long and believes he is bigger than the club – after having famously stated to the press that no-one is bigger than the club)….however, like you Tyldesley I don’t know enough about the ‘foreign psych’ when it comes to fans rivalry and support abroad but I suspect it can be on a par like ours particularly when it comes to the European super clubs – the analogy which best describes outbursts like this is when making a comparison to (the majority) of Scotland supporters who go out of their way to ‘support’ any team that are playing against England – their hatred is filthy.

I disagree though with your last point because I do think that any team in the last 16 of the competition represents the cream of the league from which they ply their trade – for if they don’t then we are on the next step to the elitist ‘Super European League’ so many have talked about in the past……and that would not be good for football – in any country.

With Bayern Munich playing Man City it was highly likely that he would come across some ” Munich fans ” To be fair Griff, not really very nice to call him a wanker ( you can write it you know ! ) now was it !!
As for Man Utd, I cant be doing with their fans and so I cant wait to rub it in that they failed in Europe ! I have the same hatred for the deluded Nob End fans who think they are a big club !! I don’t have a problem with any other sets of fans, Bolton included !!
