Completely agree with the post and sentiment. I somehow always managed to avoid really hating ManU until now but my GOd what a bunch of cunts some of their fanbase is. Not all cos I'm currently sat in the office with a ManU fan and she's alright, but then she is a genuine manc and come from a family of ManU supporters so I've no truck with that. If you have to single out one player who has let us down in recent weeks its Wilson. He could have been the difference yesterday and I'm really questioning why Howe started him, must be doing something different in training I guess. Isak look like a fine player but I'm not convinced he's a number 9. It's difficult yt be successful without a proper centre forward. I'd like us to buy at least one quality player in this position. Biggest fear now is can we pick ourselves up, will this have released the pressuire or will apthy set in? I can't see a successful result for us at the Ethiad next week and by that time the gap between us and 4th might be menatally unassailable. And I know we should be delighted with a lower Euro spot, but this will bring its own issues next year. Oh well, at least I'm not hung over this morning, just full of cold instead, typical.

Honestly, of course you'd expect them to be happy, as I was in 2014, I don't want them to win anything. But if the roles were reversed I'd not be gloating, and I doubt we'd be creating threads literally hundreds of pages long. We hate each other, but one of us is progressive, looking forward, wanting the best for ourselves, whilst the other has defined themselves by us. Hence their sign off, FTM. Is there an equivalent of this anywhere else? Nearest I can think of is Ranger's Fuck the Pope but I doubt even any Scottish soap dodgers create threads purely for you sign up to this. It is decidedely bizarre behaviour.

They cheer me up, they're fucking tapped. This is an example of that patheticness. Here's a thread where they queue up to type "FTM". I shit you not, that's the only purpose of the theead. 8 pages 147 FTMs at time of me posting this.

I don't think anyone has the plucky loser mentality. It's a pisser, but what you going to do? I think recognising that this is the start of, not the end of, the journey is key. We'll be back soon and next time maybe will be favourites, and will win a trophy. That's not just cushioning the blow of this defeat, its my objective appraisal of the situation.

Front page of the SMB below. That main thread is approaching 4000 posts. And it's the same on their hidden forum. I reckon our match today, where we were a bit unlucky to lose to ManU, has inspired close to 10,000 posts. Brings a new dimension to living your life vicariously. Keep on enjoying life in the lower leagues, you SMB.
