Went for a few beers last night and met some mates only two of us city fans the rest a mix of prem teams fans .When the who do you want as next manager came up my city mate shouts browny i said dalglish just to wind the three pool fans up.**** me the whole place went mad with "why the **** would he go to ****ing city" to "why would any top manager go to city" to "have you ever had a top manager".15 blokes all taking the piss not a good night for me 46 and arguing in the street nearly coming to blows. Old bill shows up telling everyone to calm down.In the end i ****ed off to the next pub to wise to no only one winner when old bill shows.When we all met back up we all laughted about it but what did come out was non city fans think we are not a big club and why would a top manager come to city.Big hangover kicking in now
Are you trying to suggest we're not as big as Man C, Man U, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs etc? ****ing cheek. Nice trolling btw.
No, however if a failed PL manager was looking for work, then a Championship club would be an attractive option. Dalglish is not looking for work right now but if he'd gone in January then I think he would consider a move to a Championship team. The problem with him is he needs a lot of money.
Can we afford a top manager? The answer is no, so why would we want to attract one. Maybe after we have spent 10 years in the Premier League than we might be able to say do a Sunderland and appoint a top name. Also if Wigan lose their manager - will they be able to attract a top manager, I doubt it.
Doesn't sound like a made up story to me. Why should it ? Bunch of pissed up lads getting lary on a night out. Youv'e led a sheltered life if youv'e never seen that. Prem club fans being arrogant ? Phew !
I can see it now. Top name manager in the interview: I will need a budget of 15m to build a team. Assem Allam: NEXT.... Ex Prem Manager: I want my own team in. Assem Allam: NEXT.... The one who gets the job: How do you like your tea Sir? Assem Allam : Sod the tea, just get on with cleaning the car.
They'll give each candidate a 15 minute interview, the one who can say 'Yes' the most in that time gets the job.
Unfortunately I don't think they would, but that's no excuse for your mates to act so ****ish! Just shows how things can escalate fast once a few bevvies have been downed. Many of my mates are Man U fans, I get the same disdain. Thing is, collectively, they've seen United about 10 times in their lives, max. It's not real is it? Glad to hear that the tempers all died down! I can just picture it, an innocent discussion hijacked by people failing to see the irony in a comment (a grasp of irony does not generally come as standard with my mates neither). Your mates have actually annoyed me a little bit and I wasn't even there!
Not with the Allams in charge. If we had owners who didn't act like fascist dictators, then may be we would be able to get someone better than Blackwell.
Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike...you are straight-talking you are! I like it! I too believe that if Mr Allem (Assem) was in charge of a country, it would be a dictatorship. He's that sort. Well spotted Mike.
My three best mates are United and Liverpool fans, they don't take the piss that I support City as one of them has a season pass and another one came with me to nearly every home game this season. However, there are a few dickheads at my school that "claim" they support top 4 clubs, this one kid says he supports Arsenal, but the only Arsenal game he's ever watched was against us, at the KC
Tough times TayLorTiGer, tough times. You must stay strong, and constantly remind them that they are not from Lancashire, Merseyside or Laaandan on a regular basis. Break their spirit.
I try, but they don't have a spirit to be broken, that's the thing with Glory Hunters, they have no passion and if one team fails they support the next one, as you said tough times
all my glory supporting mates seem to support hull fc as well.. i have no interest in egg chasing, but pretend i support wigan or saints whenever there handing out a whooping, they dont seem to like it when the boots on the other foot..
