Never ceases to amaze me on here how, when a thread mentioning United and City in a good light is put up, the reaction is 'arsed.' however when they don't do so well, the bandwagon of dislike begins to roll
Personally I don't really mind United or City at all. My dad used to be a season ticket holder at United and my mum has been a season ticket holder at City for the past 12 years or something.
I may have been one of those people that have not been "arsed" when something good about United or City has been put on the forum. And that's because I couldn't really care less what they do. I'm more bothered by what my club is doing to be honest. Yes, they both do good things in the community, but so do thousands of other clubs.
However, on the flip side, I do find it amusing to take the piss when one of the biggest names in European football, and a club aspiring to be the biggest name in European football get knocked out at the first hurdle. And the same happened when it was Liverpool not qualifying, Arsenal being wank etc etc. I have no interest in supporting or hating a team that I can only watch from the "magic box", but surely I can still have a laugh at their expense?
In a nutshell, stop getting so uptight about it, it's a couple of jokes. From the way you go on anyone would think you were a United fan. And there was me thinking you were a Bolton fan anyway...
