Great teams
Stretford has dropped some serious truth bombs in regards to City and it deserved a round of applause.

By 'Graft', do you mean:

Become one of the instigators of formation of the Premier League to the detriment of any club not in it.

Encourage Sky to become major shareholders straight after.

Conspire with the so-called G14 clubs to make the Champions League an almost closed shop.

Lie to American investors about your fan base to increase the value of your shares.

Lie about your attendences to give the impression Old Trafford is always full.

Give overseas fans preference over locals for tickets for key games.

Blackmail your fans into joining 'Loyalty' schemes despite knowing that many couldn't attend mid-week games.

Get a court order to stop local charities having bucket collections within 300 metres of the Swamp on matchdays.


Pure Class.

We're bitter?!

You're the one who has admitted you were heavily invested in, but have now invented an imaginary line of what level of investment is acceptable just so you can discredit us, because let's face it, you've got feck all else to hammer us on bar empty seats, and it's nice to have some variety in the diet.

Add to that you claimed you 'worked for it' at a time when even your father was probably a small child.

Plus it's a strong rumour you still wet the bed.

Glad Mr C's arrived to give us a viewpoint from the PL's most toxic club.

don't really know why anyone has a problem with City or Chelsea's investment

United still have tonnes of money even if the model is different to City, not City's fault you've wasted it on dross

I love these articles where the City fans bait this guy aka "Stretty Bingo"

He's such a cry baby yet has the nerve to call them bitter. One day the penny will drop but for now,

Club rivalries aside, trying to draw comparisons between both Manchester clubs is a bit of a stretch.

Without going into pre-Glazer ownership, United’s success on the pitch was the catalyst for their subsequent growth. The same cannot be said of City.

exactly, if we'd spent it properly, we'd be up there challenging, instead we've peed most of it away on over the hill or terrible footballers with the odd quality signing

I have no issues with their investment. It is what it is. I only have problems when they stupidly try to convince themselves that its the same as United in 1992 when it's totally different.

Who's crying? I've grown up and seen my team win 13 league titles, 5 Fa cups and 2 CL's and I'm only 30. I'm one of luckiest football fans there is. Lucky my dad was a red and took me and my brother to OT when we were kids.

Agree. Its just one rich guy buying a football club and using it as a hobby. Far better than than one where it's a leveraged debt and one that is a cash cow

Wjy does Stretty have to bring the whole site down every time someone tries to put him right?

Cry baby.

Your dad that taught you to hate stretty.

A fine example of parentage I mean look how you turned out.

I thought had tried to merge his consciousness with the ja606 server.

Red lights flashing alarms going off "they must have thought someone said something about Liverpool and a mass complaint was goin on"

Haf had tried even

Spurs are so well runs they haven't won a major trophy in decades.

Remind me again how much this Carling cup final has cost you in terms of transfers over the last 2 seasons 😂💵🚽

Is there a trophy for being the best-run club?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nope but it is a great achievement to maintain such a persistent strong position with so many limitations!

Many will say lack ambition to spend big bucks but we simply cannot afford to until our stadium is sorted.

We develop young players/ buy youth and get them to play our style.

Also to point out players who have represented Enlgand from what I would class as youth include, Townsend, Mason, Kane, Walker.

How many of other teams youth are in the squad week in, week out

I will love it if Man Utd win the premierleague. My projects a while back was Man Utd will win the title if we get to 75 points and win the big games against teams around us.

Hafi.....best performing manager is LVG yeah?

It's stuff like this that makes your WUM mask slip mate. Almost Barry levels of obvious.

Neither Chelsea nor Liverpool are in top6

Frankly this obvious jealousy of city by United fans is getting embarrassing now.
Utd were top dogs in England for many years mostly because they were the richest club by a million miles.
Now city are richer they don't like it and try to denigrate city as if investment in a club doesnt really count.
Wake up and smell the coffee you reds and stop being so bitter and jealous.
I dont care either way, am a Londoner and support a London club, not some plastic glory hunter that has never been to Manchester.

It's in their DNA.
