An apology

"In my article, I apologised to United fans such as yourself for my mistaken belief that you were the most arrogant in the league."

Exactly, it's patronising and rude.

What do you want me to say? Thank you, we are now the second most arrogant in the league (in your opinion)?

If anything it makes you arrogant for suggesting you have the self importance to make such a statement.

Wow. Just... wow.

So, according to you, it's patronising and rude to apologise and it's arrogant to have an opinion?

Actually, forget I asked. It's my own fault for going against my initial instinct to ignore you. I get the feeling that continuing would be an exercise in futility and, frankly, I've got better things to be doing with my time. Like staring out of the window or scratching my backside, for example.

So you don’t think it is rude, or arrogant, to stereotype a whole fan base as the ‘most arrogant’?

We get stereotyped as the most bitter so whats the issue.

That leopold cannot see why I'd find this article obnoxious, arrogant and rude.

For a club that base themselves on the notion 'not better just arrogant' I thought you'd be able to see the lighthearted side of it?

Not arrogant just better lol.

I don't have a huge issue with it, read the posts, I simply started off by calling him obnoxious, which judging by his following posts and the fact he can't be rational, that opinion stands.

If I came on the City boards starting an article off with, “Hello you bunch of bitter gits, I used to you think you were the mot most bitter but now Liverpool are.“ I'm sure you'd respond in a delightful manor.

Then he has the cheek to call it an ‘apology’? I believe a back handed compliment is was 13 year old school girls do, I take back my comment calling him a that is a little harsh, he is a winey little bitchhhh.

Hmmm...

Thing is, Busby, you can see evidence of my ability to be rational on this very thread. Chevy came at me with an equal level of atrition, but his approach was one in which I was able to latch on to his perspective and we were able to reach an amicable conclusion - or at least what I would call amicable, I'd be happy for Chevy to input at this point.

However, you have consistently approached me with little more than abuse and name-calling (and apparently I'm the 13 year old girl), which only serves to antagonise. And I wouldn't mind, I don't think many of my responses to you were entirely unreasonable either. Granted, some where, but given the tone of your responses, I think I can justify myself.

As for the article itself, well, you'll just have to deal with your frustration in your own way. I've waited thirty odd years for us to be in this position and for all of them I've had to put up with United supporters - ranging from forum members up to friends and family - doleing out increasing levels of crapola in my direction about what a joke the club I support is. As an example, that banner. What purpose was that for, if not to be obnoxious? So yes, after finally getting one over on you all, I've decided to create ONE article to have a little gloat. And you've come here, all whingey and complainy. Well, tough luck buster, I think I'm allowed one little gloat. If you don't like it, you know where the door is.

Is this going anywhere?

Well, I do feel like I'm just talking to the wall, so I guess not.
