“It showed an arrogance,” Ferguson said. “It was naughty. It showed a cockiness that wasn’t required at the time because they hadn’t done anything. The season hadn’t even started.”
These comments by the manager about the Carlos Tevez poster have upset City fans. How dare Sir Alex Ferguson brand another team cocky and arrogant, when United have shown themselves to be both those things on numerous occasions under Fergie’s reign. Despite the lie they perpetuate about Mancunians all supporting City, they’ve all got mates, work colleagues, relatives, girlfriends etc. who are reds and have rubbed our success in their noses for years. We’ve laughed at them as they’ve been relegated time and again and lauded our trophies over them. How dare Ferguson now turn around and call City arrogant and cocky!
Erm, but it’s not quite the same situation is it? In the 23 years that Ferguson has been at the club we have won 11 league titles, 2 European Cups, 5 FA Cups, 3 League Cups, plus the Cup Winners’ Cup, the Super Cup, the Intercontinental Cup and the World Club Cup. Who the fuck wouldn’t be cocky when they’re backed up by that much success? City fans? Yeh right!
In contrast, City fans were getting cocky because they had paid £25m for a player who scored just five goals for us last season and was third choice. As for success? Well, I wouldn’t want to behave arrogantly and remind them just how long it’s been since they’ve won anything, although I can tell you we’ve lifted trophies 28 times since they last did.
Man Utd News 24/7
Long may it continue
Forever in our shadow
Let them come on sunday and be put to the sword – can’t wait
I believe that United will beat City.
The confidence of our players and SAF is a good thing but the last time we came out with such extreme remarks about the opposition was before the Liverpool game in which we got humiliated.
I hope that does not happen again…….
@MG
that is exactly the phrase
lets put those bitter bastards to the sword!
ive grown so tired of their pathetic attempts at gloating already
@MG – Amen mate. I was listening to 606 after the Arsenal v City match and this cunt came on talking about how full the Council House was and how citeh have such great support and have for years. Every single shitty fan that rang said they’ve been a proud fan their whole lives. Fucking bollocks.
Let them sing all they want, come Sunday lunchtime our lads on the field will remind all these new citeh supporters why their trophy case only collects dust.
I read somewhere that they paid 47 millions for tevez, hope it’s true
99
i heard that altogether its about 54 million pound
I hate this shitty thing!,i hope dat they wil b wel smothered wth goal b4 they leave OT…N i hope tevez gets paid by da fans 4 showin disrespect 2 SAF cz we wil never alow dat!
if fergie’s picks the right team and plays a 4-4-2 formation, and rio is fit, then we will win for sure. they don’t only deserve a lose. no, they deserve a humilation, a kick up their ass, a footballing lesson and someone to tell them to stop the gloating and dreaming. we have the right to be cocky whereas we don’t, fergie is spot on.

I think fergie is going to pick park in place of nani or valencia…i hope we get a landslide win…
Don’t know why sir Alex is worried.can’t wait till sunday.man u for life
Like you say Scott, United have reasons to be cocky. City’s isn’t so much cockiness but an arrogance. They seem to think that because they have spent Billions of pounds that they have a right to win things. Sick of the way they keep calling themselves a “big club”. From what I heard on the radio a fair few neutrals want United to win on Sunday. Everyone is getting sick of these “big time charlies”. If Citeh think the media etc are on their case now wait till they actually win summat. (like the Carling Cup)!!
For all the fans prepared to give Tevez the benefit of the doubt and choose not to jeer him,remember this.
He had the opportunity to tell the press that he wanted to distance himself from that classless poster out of respect for United fans. But he chose not to, despite spending the last six months of his time with us bleating to everyone who would listen that he thought United were disrespecting him.
I for one have no time for the Judas Cunt now and really hope that fans who think he ran around and gave 100% for us and we should be nice to him look at the bigger picture and see that this guy is as much of a mercenary as Adebaywhore is.
Really hope if he plays on Sunday that he gets the reception he truly deserves, a hostile one
Eolude – Sir Alex isn’t worried.
So there’s a derby on Sunday. So what. Will we beat City? Of course we will. But lets get real United will finish above City at the end of the season and whatever happens on Sunday will not change the outcome at the end of the season. Would I love to see Tevez on Sunday? You bet I would and see his face when United win. Or better still see him on the bench and not come on at anytime so then he can eat all the vitriol he’s said about not being played at United. No I won’t call him a cunt or a twat or any other names given him on this site, but then he is isn’t he
I love you for making this already intense match gamer even more so.
Morning!
Well I’m a bit nervy about sunday, they have been playing some good football.
Am I sure we’ll win on sunday? No… cannot actually say that. If we perform at normal rate then sure, no problem. But if we play some of the football we’ve seen at the start of this season then City have a chance of piling on the preassure and that’s not something we’re comfortable with. But if we get into at least 3′rd gear we’ll dispose of the bitters.
Not so worried about Ferdinand though. Yes he’s first choice as Vida’s partner but no one can say Evans isn’t good enough, against Besiktas he really impressed me… he’s so calm for a boy that age.
I wanna see Park instead of Valencia ’cause he was a BIG disappointment against Besiktas… really hopes he improves his game. Maybe we should give Brown a game so we’ll have som tough tackling skills at right back?. Otherwise the team picks itself:
Foster
Brown Vidic Rio (Evans) Evra
Park Fletch Giggs Nani
Berba Rooney
Goooooo!!!
want our back four to give Tevez a fucking good going over…… get stuck into the cunt in the fucking tunnel before the game, a la Keano, and let the judas fuckpig know what sort of a game to expect….. and if Gobshite Hughes stands too close to the touch line let Evra give him a little dig as he goes past….
Citeh scumbags
lol scott – love how you twist things around – tevez was actually our first choice last season – remember ? he played more than rooney and berbatov ?
and scored 14 not 5…
maybe we should give Tevez a standing ovation and cheer is every touch if he plays.
This would totally confuse and piss off the city fanswho will revel in any abuse we give him
fuck city
i hope were winning 3-0 and vidic viciously goes into tevez, instantly snapping tevez’ leg, hitting a major artery and leaving tevez on the fitch like fuckin mARC VIVIENE FOE
i am evil arnt i?
