Just came here to post this. That really is one of the most embarassing things I've ever seen. On the official site as well! Unbelievable.

I just came on to post it too! Man United fan mate just sent it to me. GOT to be someone at City who's a United fan - or someone has hacked it - it's hilarious.

When i was originally sent the link I thought exactly the same. It's like a United fan has won a competition to take the piss out of them on their own website

This has actually happened before. :) There was a thing on the website asking people what their first experience was with City and they select the best and put them up around the ground above the entrances. A Utd fan got one got through and it was in the stadium for around 3 months before someone noticed it.

I trust the King, but if we lose a few more on the trot now - he may have to step aside, and we have to purchase another manager in the middle of the season. If we are relegated, this could be the end of our ambitions to win any title the next 100 years.

I've just been sent that link. I don't know what to say.

An utter, utter embarrasment that. Genuinely. Wonder what their fans think of it? They are basically asking for glory hunters to start following them and telling them where to buy the new shirt while they are at it!

So embarrassing it's unbelievable.

You're right. It is embarrassing and it IS cringeworthy, BUT, its just what Manure were doing throughout the 1990's while they built up their power base. I thought that United fans were an embarrassment because of the commercialization that went on at Old Trafford. We could hold our heads up high because we were above all that shit. But, just look at them now (Ł1bn in debt) I know, however you cannot deny that they have been successful, while we have not and that is purely down to money.

Oh my goodness it's shameful.....why not just have a sign saying "glory hunters this way"?

It's a shame, because this isn't really man city.....the club has been somewhat lost and they could have kept the essence of the club and become bigger.
