[Albion] Do you HATE Man Utd?

[Is it PotG?]

More than anything......sprouts, 'can I get?' and red wine at the incorrect temperature.

 

[dazzer6666]

Not a much as pointless threads.

 

[Flounce]

Nope but I bloody love it when we beat them.

The only times I’ve liked them was when they first won the European Cup and when Tommy Docherty managed them

Admire what SAF did there but I always wanted them to lose, which didn’t happen often.

Been to Old Trafford twice and both times thought it an over rated stadium….and we lost

 

[A1X]

I prefer them to Chelsea

I don’t hate them more than the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool or City TBH

 

[bluenitsuj]

Almost as much as Chelsea

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Just another team we have to beat if we are serious about getting back to european competition

 

[Mackenzie]

I like them when they play palace

 

[huzzah]

when i was a wee young un, I was unable to separate our replay loss and our relegation, so I blamed them for all our subsequent woes. as an older person, I, of course, understand they were not the reason, but that visceral feeling never left me.

Thread Title should have been: "Utd or City... Which has the better Asians."

 

[Jackthelad]

Now I don't like them but no real hate either. I hated them in the 1990's! They were the glory hunters team. As I got older I grew respect the Ferguson team and Cantona for the amazing flying kung fu kick which was a real thing of beauty.

From needing treatment as a 12 year-old, at Wembley, for a cut to my temple, after being struck by a sharpened coin thrown by their fans, in the lower tier of our end - right through to being sickened by their (entirely non-ironic) arrogant bragging after the recent cup semi in which we’d entirely outplayed them - it’s fair to say I’m not keen.

They’ve been utter fuckers every time we’ve met at Wembley, and they’re not much better outside of there either.

Agree with these bits above. Hated them at the time they were winning everything, but in retrospect can see what an incredible achievement SAF’s time at the club was.

For a long time (the Glazer years) they were a financial tool for the Glazer family that just happened to have a football club attached.

I don’t know if Ratcliffe and chums will turn it round. They seem to be hiring knowledgable people, who “get” the football side of it, but what happens when Ratcliffe and Glazers are in disagreement? I consider them direct rivals these days, which is bloody incredible really. Let’s hope they get bogged down in internal squabbling.

I like Manchester as a city and have spent a lot of time there, I find the locals who support them generally good fans and historically a good working class club. I’ve been to FC United quite a few times and it’s a great day out and have some good friends there.
They are actually one of my least hated PL teams. (However, don’t think for a moment they are my “second team” they are not!)

 

[Monkey Man]

The 30-, 40- or 50-something Sussex-based fans who are now stuck with “United” as their team have my pity. Latched onto a declining club that they have no genuine connection with while little old Brighton emerges as one of the most exciting projects in world football.

 

[Triggaaar]

Not sure I have anything against the club, but a lot of the travelling fans are particularly objectionable, and the fans who aren't from Manchester are beneath contempt.

 

[The Optimist]

A strange one. I despise the glory hunting southern reds or whatever they call themselves. But the true local fans and the club itself I found them harder and harder to dislike as the years have rolled on. Maybe if they become good again my dislike will grow. Is that just jealousy or am I just being nice now because I feel sorry them?

 

[Gabbafella]

Not as much as Chelsea or Palace, plus Cantona's karate kick gets them bonus points.
Their fans are usually dicks who are living in the past. Hopefully a chorus of "you've seen the Albion now f*** off home" will be ringing out tomorrow after we dry hump them.
