Old Trafford boomed yesterday as they equaled our titles record. We have heard united fans enquire were we watching them for many decades now. Always found it strange the very club that has throughout my lifetime, and that be nearly fifty years, proclaimed their club to be the biggest, most famous club in the world.
Even at the height of our golden era, which spanned over twenty years, it was Manchester United who still claimed to be top English club.
So it has always given us an ironic smug feeling of superiority over them, because of our very mention at all their triumphs. We are their touchstone, their ultimate goal by which they measure themselves.
No finer compliment can your bitterest enemy give to you.
All the more satisfying when they seem totally oblivious of the fact that, yes Manchester, we have been watching, but not as much as you at us.
ALWAYS IN OUR SHADOW
) 2-0 down at half time, playing poorly, yes it may have been a contreversial penalty decision but in no way did it automatically hand us the win as we still had to score another 2 to get the win.
