| Don't get to come on here v.often these days, so I don't know if this has already been commented on. But did anyone see this article?
I thought it was poorly written, but I took it in jest. However, the comments by blues (and others) seem to point to the fact that this isn't the first time he's talked about City in this way...
Anyway, thought it was nice for us to have a new journalistic hate figure!

| Evening mate. You don't read the torygraph do you? I'd have thought that would be far too right wing for your tastes.

| Yes you're right - being a limp-wristed leftie liberal I usually stay well away from the Torygraph! However, I do prostitute myself when it comes to sports journalism...especially after City win.
The article was actually pointed out in the "real" paper by a colleague at work last week (Henderson also managed to crowbar in another reference to our 32 years of pain in another article about rugby union on the same page?!). So I thought I'd check out how it had gone down with the online blues. I wasn't too surprised by the less than amused response!
Great result for the blues obviously - tho sadly I'm no longer allowed to put my scarf on e-bay...thought I was quids in. ;-)

Obviously a blue tit. See how I did that Squidge. Very nice Bert - but i don't understand the reference to me?

What a sanctimonious prick. What do you reckon the chances are that he'll retract & apologise for the following statements?
"At Old Trafford, happily, there will be silence. Or at least there will be if the folk from the other side of the city decide to observe it. Manchester City have sent out letters to those fans who will attend the game, asking them to behave, but that's rather like asking the wind not to blow.
It is likely the silence will be broken. If so it would be nice to think that the offenders will be exposed and punished appropriately."
It was a rhetorical question, obviously!

Arse, City should find some legal grounds - libel maybe, although technically not true. Maybe defammation of character - and cause a stir. In fact, any lawyers out there? We're City fans, lets lodge a defamation of character suit against this tosspot

| | Ooh, he's a card that Michael Henderson. "Sorry, what was that Michael? What was the score? Oh, it was 2-1 to City" 
you know, you know, if a feller named Monroe never fathered bluegrass he would still be unrecognised as the grand wizard of speed metal
