I presume 'POTG' stands for 'Potatoes, Onions, Tomatoes and Greens'!
Gutted at the postponement of this game as we cant continue the debate on why FC are so bad until they get beat on saturday now.
Vegas - I see Phil M cumbria is keeping a low profile now because the muppet has no chance of winning his bet with you and no intention of paying up either - Typical FC fan, all mouth and trousers.

On second thoughts, FC will have been relieved with this postponement as it gives you a defeat in hand. Sounds like the postponement is the best result you have had all season.
POTG means Pay-On-The-Gate. It's when you attend a match in person and cheer on your team instead of picking holes in the affairs of a club 6 divisions below you.
So glad it's not just us that are obsessed with FC.

How can any football fan from anywhere on Earth be so think they don't even realise a knock out cup game doesn't carry points? Then again if you think Dukinfield is in Manchester!

Dukinfield bitter is a very sad man indeed. Having seen his paragraphs of nonsense posted on his own club site, he's just a juvenile endlessly droning on about sacking Hughes. He must post dozens of comments a week on us alone never mind the time spent on Citeh's pages repeating the same old mantra probably making him the most boring person on earth (which even his own Citeh fans acknowledge). Do you have a job Dukinfield bitter from "Manchester" Oh i forgot you're at school aren't you. About 10 years old? I don't know why you think you wind us up, we just laugh at you and in some ways take pity. You even have the irony to say i rant!! Have you ever read your own posts on Citeh? Obviously over 3 decades of trophyless football have warped your tiny mind....oh i forgot you wouldn't know about football before 1999 would you? My brother who has watched City since 1970 has seen your posts and he thinks you're a thick embarrasment to your own club. Get a life mate.

Simple Simon Audenshaw muppet - if my posts dont wind you up at all, why the vitrol and abuse?, and you call me bitter! (lol)
Ive got some advice for you, have a nice cup of tea and a buscuit, take a deep breath and eat some of those nice Veggies that Margy brought around for you last night.

I am not and never will be your mate. Dukinfield is a former Cheshire town in Tameside. It is not and never has been a part of the City of Manchester where I come from. I have no problem with Tameside but that is a fact. Fc United is and always has been based in the City of Manchester, Ancoats to be precise. We play most of our teams at Manchester College former MANCAT where Margy is a tutor. The first team plays home games at Gigg lane Bury because it's the best deal we can get on a ground share until our own ground is built in Manchester. That is also a fact.

Went to a match at the Bitterdome a couple of years back with a city-supporting mate. Was most amused as we went along a long line of coaches. They were from ALL OVER the place - anywhere but Manchester ! And no, it was nowhere near where they park the away coaches. My mate was most embarrassed - wound him up for ages after. Great stuff.
You'd have thought that someone who spends as much time obsessing over FC United as Duckie Egg would have a bit more knowledge of the club, wounldn't you?

Mate - you didnt answer my question, where do you come from within the boundaries of Greater Manchester?.
Look mate, I dont want to get into a big disagreement with you but if you look closely on the map, Dukinfield is well within the boundaries of Greater Manchester. With all due respect in comparison, FC have no home to speak of, no ground despite telling the world you are having one built but as yet not come up with the money or land/planning permission to achieve it, no real identity other than you one you have chosen to peddle when associating yourself with Manchester (A little bit like your big cousins over at the swamp).
Mate - I can see that my expose of FC is really irritating you and your co-horts but I am only pointing out what I see as facts, its like the Margy Greengrocer thing, its a a fact, I can see you and the others dont like it, but its a fact, no need to get shirty about it.

Fuzzy wuzzy brain - I would never ever refer to Munich Jibes, I respect the fact that the great Frank swift also died in that tragic air crash and to suggest so is nothing short of disgraceful. Anyway, what has Munich or Man Utd got to do with the debates and banter we have on this page regarding FC Utd? - shame on you, it sounds like you have a proper chip on your shoulder.
Ps: City will win something however long it takes as FC in my opinion will never ever get into the football league, Id worry about the fact you might get relegated this season and I guess its FC's poor form and league postion which is creating all the tension amongst you all right now.

Duki B. 5 out of 15 posts on this thread. I rest my case.:-)). Explain why you think i'm bitter, i'm actually laughing at you! FC United fans by disposition are a very happy bunch. What is there to be unhappy about as in our short existence we've already won 3 or 4 trophies, we own our own club (soon our own ground) and we don't get extorted in the process. We are winners and have loved every minute. Go on all you like about us, call me childish names (simple Simon ooooooh!), but i can guarantee i'm smiling after every match i see FC play. Before all this i saw MUFC win all there was to win in the flesh many times. All you have is continuing angst about your manager and continually showing what an immature imbecile you are on here. Who's better off, who's bitter?

The use of the word fact 3 times and not one of them are facts!! Karl Marginson delivered food to the elderly but doesn't do that anymore. It WAS a fact but no longer is. I'm happy to state that he was delivering food so why do you think it bothers us? We joke about it as well. Second fact you are wrong about is the ground. We have a very healthy development fund growing by the year and have approached MCC for suitable sites which they have agreed on. The only thing we comment on is your insistence on posting lots of stupid posts (usually accompanied by childish insults) about us which we laugh at (well i do). Third fact is you state we have no identity but you continually contradict yourself on this by your continuing interest in us. You're on you're own out of thousands of City fans so don't you see the irony? So you don't like us, clear to see, but what is your point? Do you think it will make us go away? It's all a bit wierd mate. (Cue reposte with some Simple Simon comments- Yawn.zzzzzz)

After the thrills and spill of the FA Trophy last week, its back to league action with Kendal Town the visitors to Gigg Lane. Revenge is in the air as the FCUM attempt to reverse the 1-0 defeat at the Lakeland Stadium in September.
