Seriously a mate of mine whose a united fan, doesn’t refer to them as RS or any other derogatory title. He just refers to them as the special dispensation club.

I did my final year at uni (many years ago) in Rome and the only thing that Lazio and Roma fans agreed on was a hatred for the rs after rampaging through Rome.

Been to Rome a few times. My North West England wool accent has been suspected as being one of them a few times, have to set them straight that they are hated as much over here as they are all over Europe
 
Lost count of the professional could they were making all game, I was thinking, has this ref been told not to book them ? Chelsea ripped through their midfield countless times, usually stopped by unfair methods, got away with a clear as day red and at least five bookings for any other team.

Imagine if Duncan had of committed that elbow. Would have been a red with an extra few games ban. He used to get sent off as soon as his arm made contact with an opposition player - the refs and linesman were looking for it.

Without a doubt remember when he got sent off away at Leicester the ref couldn’t wait to send him off 2nd yellow for FA . One bright note from that thou one of my favourite photos came from this of Stefen fraud getting strangled by Duncan for being a grass.

Whenever he came on off the bench, the refs used to go and have a word with the linesman to keep an eye on him. The way he jumped was no different to niall quinn, Andy Carroll, Peter crouch etc. He got treated terribly.

Egypt are second favourites for the afcon,let's hope they go the distance and keep Salah out there for the duration, he is the main one who could drag them back in the title race, City are bound to have a mini blip soon after 11 wins on the spin and RS would only be 5pts behind if they win their game in hand.Remember Newcastle blew a 15 pt lead in 95/96 due to complacency.

Whilst I don't think it's over just yet, the example you used could have been better. Complacency had nothing to do with Newcastle blowing that lead, they simply cracked under the strain and could not cope with the pressure.
The rags in 2012 would be a better example. 8 points clear with only 6 games to go and they blew it. With Everton playing a pivotal role in their demise by clawing back a two goal deficit to eventually earn a draw 4-4. A result that utterly crushed the belief of the rag players and gave new energy and belief to City.
