You just can't say that one club has more fan's that are bad over other clubs.
It's just wrong. Go to some European grounds & observe their fan's. It's far worse.
I RESPECTFULLY 100% disagree with what you say

I agree with you that there's twats that support every team in Football.

I don't know if I've told anyone this but the first ever game that I went to was when we faced Newcastle at St Andrews and we got relegated that very day as we drew 0-0 but we had to win the game to have a chance at staying up, and I remember a fellow Blues fan who was sitting next to me calling Heskey (who was playing for us at the time) some of the most racist things that you'd be shocked to hear at a Football ground.

With Man U fans the only thing that I can say there based off my Mom is that they seem to think that they're saints whilst everyone else is the Devil (as I said this is based off my own Mom's behaviour when discussing Man Utd compared to most of the other teams)

I respect your view 100% you are never far away from some little dickhead giving it the big-un when in reality they know **** all there is no shortage of them at any club thats for sure and half of them havent even been to a game just some spotty little herbert trying to be clever.
But there is always a but some of the vitriol and nastiness i have witnessed online in the last 4-5 years coming from people i could previously talk to about football despite being rivals has shocked me.
someone hit on a good point earlier it is just idiots lashing out at their own teams failures and i in no way hold all supporters of a club responsible but it does taint the club when it happens in such numbers.
MUFC fans used to call Man City fans bitters but bloody hell how that table has turned.

The premiership is on the verge of losing their 4th place in the Champions League they just about scraped by and earned enough co-efficient points in Europe this season by virtue of Liverpool reaching a final and spurs doing ok.
A bad performance in Europe next season would see the premiership lose a place in the champions league the season after making it harder to qualify for everyone including your own team.

Not supporting any other English teams in Europe is counter productive,short sighted and frankly a dickhead move.

it should only be 1 team from each country in each competition. There is only 1 champion, not 3 runner ups

Agree. ONLY the champions of each country should be in the Champions League. But if this happened what would Wenger have to aim for each season

What is this obsession on here for Reece ****ing Douglas?

It might be the best thing to happen to him.

The only times I have supported English teams in Europe it was cuz I thought they were the best team. I supported Man U in 1999 when they beat Bayern as I thought they were the best team in the competition. The competition was harder when it was two group stages IMO and every year that it was two group stage I would argue the best team in it, won it. The other time was against Chelsea in Moscow. I wanted to support them tthe two times they played Barca as I think that is the best Man U team Fergie created but I thought Barca team were better.

I do not understand why people insist every one should support an English team simply cuz they are English. It makes no sense to me.

I don't expect Liverpool /City and Man U to show each other any love in Europe. The EUROPA league clash will have started a greater European enmity.

Got a feeling most fans won't begrudge Leicester City in Europe.

Only a dickhead would begrudge Leicseter City any success in Europe and claim to love all other English team ****ing up. Yet you do get people that are that bitter. Its pretty sad really.
Like i mentioned earlier English teams really need the co-efficicent points otherwise we will lose places in European competition which is bad for everyones preferred club.

Can't wait till Leicester are knocked out in the group stages

Here is a bit of an explanation of what what coefficent points are and how the premier league stands at the moment.

Buts kids are gonna be kids i suppose.

Not really though...support doesn't change those rankings....results do. knowing a Man U supporter is supporting them is not going to make City play better
