    They deserve in footballing terms but not as a club. They are a disgrace to Manchester and football in general.

    Why is that ridiculous? they are disgusting club and spent 1 billion just to win 2 trophies. Players like Balotelli didn't even know who they were until they were signing for them. f**k City, their scheme will only end in tears.

    Since when is having money and spending it "disgraceful"??

    Youre telling me that if a "sugar Daddy" bought United from the Glazers, rid us of the debt and gave us 100m for transfers....you'd turn him down? Boo to that? We want make it on our own steam? Like hell you would.

    City didnt develop the way United did. They had a sugar daddy buy their team for them. But they still had to go out and win the league over 38 games. They did it and they played far better football than we did.

    That doesnt make the a "disgrace" to Manchester or football. And calling them that will just make them laugh in your face and call you bitter. And theyd be right.

    Firstly we are one of the biggest clubs in the world. If a sugar daddy did come and buy the club, it's different to that of City. We earn our money and if we did spend 100 mil, it would be from what we earn. City don't earn their money, they get on their knees and ask the Sheikh for funds.

    Thats the muthaf**kn difference between us and the bitters. Those cunts have been calling us glory hunters for years, now look at them. We are everything they aspire to be those hypocritical smalltime cock suckers.

    If a Sugar Daddy comes and buys ANY club City/Chelsea/United - its exactly the same. No difference whatsoever. Except it will cost a damn sight more to buy United than it would cost to buy City.

    & I didnt say "if we sent £100m of our own money" - I specifically suggested that out sugar daddy GAVE US £100m to spend. Not our own money. His.

    Are you seriously trying to tell me you'd object. I repeat - LIKE HELL you would.

    It doesnt matter where they got their money or how - ultimately they were the better team over 38 games. They scored more goals, and thrashed us twice. Simple as that.

    And frankly you come across as a sad angry little child when you talk like that. Which is why the City supporters will laugh at you all the more.

    Don't you get it, what City do is changing the sport (and Chelsea). They have pushed transfer values through the roof and made wages and player power ridiculous.

    Would I accept a billionaire owner who got us out of debt and give us some spends? I would, but I would absolutely hate us to spend out of control and make it impossible for other clubs in the league compete without getting into debt. What they are doing is a disgrace and everyone suffers because of it.

    I think its good to have a rival, especially City because they are our local rivals, I just wish they wasn't a bunch of scumbags who were ruining the sport. So I'm not saying this a Utd fan, I'm talking as a football fan.

    Reading through your posts, nearly everyone of them is negative when in reference to United. Have some f**king faith, cheer the f**k up. Don't call me a f**king kid for despising City, who in their right mind other than City supporters would condone what they are doing. I repeat they are everything that is wrong with modern day football.

    Don't come on a Manchester United forum and slag off everything about the club because no United supporter would ever be so negative.

    Well first off its not just City. Chelsea started the ball rolling, Real are doing it, Barca too and now we have PSG paying obscene wages as well. So lets have a little perspective before we start shouting "its all Citys fault".

    What they are doing is exactly what Chelsea were doing before them. It didnt last long at Chelsea though did it? Through a combination of managerial incompetence and owner interference.

    Will City go the same way? Who knows. But United were the biggest bullies in the yard for a long long time - yes we "earned" our money rather than being given it. Yes that sets us apart as a truly successful side over such a long time. But theres no denying we take lesser clubs better players from them. We took Rio, Rooney, Young, Jones, Smalling, Valencia, Berbatov all from clubs who couldnt offer the same money/prestige as we could. We have been accused of tapping up players like RVN and Staam in the past. We cant now sit here and start moaning just because theres a bigger fish in the financial sea.

    But City spending money theyve been given freely? That doesnt make them a "disgrace". Its just churlish to think so.

    A "bunch of scumbags"?? Tevez is an unpleasant little man, true. And I find Balotelli quite odious as well. They also gave numerous opportunities to the most disgusting of them all - Joey Barton. But other than that...they are a relatively inoffensive bunch. Less offensive than the likes of Pool with Carragher and Suarez, less offensive than Chelsea with the loathsome Cole, Terry and at one point Drogba.

    Nah - they were the better side. They deserved the trophy. They have better players. Thats all there is to it.

    Just Man Up and accept it.

    Nonsense. Bilge. Every one of them negative? How is it negative to suggest that another team deserved the title when its clearly true - for Christ Sake even Ferguson acknowledged it.

    And I'll tell you now, if you sit there, typing out that oh-so-grown-up language to describe City the day after theyve won the title off us - you across as a child. So dont be surprised when people say it to you. I'm perfectly cheery. I'm not all that disappointed that we lost because, as Ive said, we didnt deserve it. We werent good enough. Im not the one ranting and raving and calling City every name under the sun - just because they took away our favourite toy.

    Ridiculous. City were the better side this year. Like I said - man up and accept it. If a Sugar Daddy gave us the money you'd be crowing like theres no tomorrow, you certainly wouldnt be sitting here saying how awful it is for everyone else and that you wanted someone to put a stop to it.

    You should man-up buddy, everything you write is f**king negative. Read through your posts and you'll know what i mean.

    I don't give a toss if you think deserved the title because they didn't. They are a small club desperately trying to be a big club. They have players like Wayne Bridge on 100K, so now you get players asking for ridiculous wages and going for ridiculous transfer fees.

    We did spend money in the past but that comes from a sustained period of success, this also applies to clubs like Real, Barca, Milan, Juve, Arsenal, Bayern and even Liverpool:crap:

    I went a long walk last night and must have thought "I can't believe it" at least a dozen times along the way. The word unbelievable is used far too much, but Sunday was one of those events that are hard to accept as real. I still don't know how it really happened.

    Yes, it can be a cruel game, but we'll have more good times than bad and should be grateful.

    Stop being a dick, stop saying shit like man up because its pathetic.

    I said City and Chelsea. I feel the same about Real and I've said it many times, I feel like that about PSG and Anzhi too.

    I give up though, its obvious that Utd and Arsenal run their clubs correctly and are good for the sport and its clear that City and Chelsea are terrible for the sport. I shouldn't need to explain it ffs.

    Oh Dear, well, as I said - rant and rave all you like it won't change anything. Small club or not - they now have a very very big wallet. Its far bigger than ours and, hate to break it to you, thats what gets the best players - and the best players won them the title.

    Oh and like I said (which you keep ignoring becuase you know how true it is) if the Oil Sheikhs had bought United and given us all that money - you'd be crowing at the top of your lungs.

    All of this whining just makes you seem bitter and sad to be honest. I expect United fans, or at the very least adults, to lose with a little more grace.

    Ah well.

    Ha! You actually genuinely made me laugh there. You're calling me pathetic? Have you actually READ some of the stuff Giggsy is posting - calling City every name under the sun? I'm telling people to take the loss on the chin but IM pathetic.....good grief.

    Its true that sport, but most particularly and especially football, makes people give up whatever sense they have.

    Haha - I bet you would. And if a Billionaire bought the club off them and spent 100m on new players youd be crowing even more. Hypocrisy at its glorious best.

    I repeat - City were the better side. There is absolutely nothing "negative" about it.

    I've taken losing on the chin, its not the first time and it won't be the last that we lose. Its to be expected and anyone who can't take it on the chin is going to be disappointed.

    But like I have said many times is I will never praise City as a club, they are scum, they are ruining the sport and driving clubs into debt by inflating wages and transfer fee's. That goes for all of these billionaire owned clubs. Anyone who praises the club or wanted them to win the league is anti football.

    I would never want us to be like them, I would hate one man to fund us and I can't wait for this financial fair play to kick in. Hopefully the big clubs will rise to the top again.
