I've never known anyone who has swapped teams. Maybe it's a recent phenomenon like those daft half-and-half scarves but when I was a kid, you had your team and that was that. For me, I was born into a family of United fans so the decision was made for me. A lot of my friends at school were like that too, City and United.

I guess singing "City till they loose again" doesn't have a good ring to it.

A little honesty from a thread humorously titled "Build it and they will come".

A little honesty from a thread humorously titled "Build it and they will come".
I've told this story before so apologies if you've already heard it but when we were relegated I worked as a porter during uni holidays at Wythenshawe Hospital. For years I'd gone to Old Trafford with a group of mates from school. When the new season started I asked one of them who worked there permanently if I'd see him at the match bus on Saturday. His answer - he was going to Maine Road to watch First Division football. The whole room (Red and Blue) were stunned. Suffice it to say he returned to the Reds towards the end of the season when it was clear we were going to be promoted. Didn't understand it then - don't understand it now.
I know one. Went to school with him, was a Liverpool fan, but lost touch once we went to different high schools.
Since Facebook, I've noticed he is a Chelsea fan, so I do mention it to him a few times for all to see, but I never get a reply

Neither would I. It's not as if City were playing scintillating football then and, even if they were, switching from red to blue was unheard of.
I was in primary school with a guy that supported Liverpool. Every now and then he'd appear in the "people you may know" bit on facebook, and from that I've discovered that he switched to Chelsea, then United, then back to Chelsea, and now he's in prison for being a child rapist.
The apartheid analogy has to have been made by a rag infiltrator.
did that City fan really compare the clubs plight in meeting FFP with Mandela's struggle for equality?
Jesus would crawl back into his tomb after reading that shite

I love how one of them is planning a WWI-esque alliance system with regards to challenging UEFA:

'Their way of feeling relevant.
I have never heard of them having close ties with Real and realistically, I doubt they would get their support.
It would most likely be PSG, City and Chelsea vs. United, Bayern and Barca. I reckon we could take them...

Not sure about Chelsea, when FFP came out it was reported that Roman was Abig supporter and had helped in the design of the ruls

If there were to be a rebellion against FFP, City and PSG would find themselves with very little company.
Chelsea have their shit sorted now financially.
I can imagine Perez spending an afternoon googling City after he gets an email from them speaking of the revolution. "Wow, there is another club in Manchester."
Nothing surprises me on forums any more. The guy who pretended to be black to win an argument here, the bloke who pretended to be a United rather than a Chelsea fan for two years...Johnno being a United fan on Rawk...
Meh, they are definitely Warsaw Pact to our Nato.
Wait, that guy's tagline was serious? I thought some mod was taking the piss out of him because he never criticised Chelsea or something. Why did he do that? Better question, why's he still here?
This is undoubtedly true - if they weren't City, they wouldn't have Mansour, and then there'd be feck all interesting about them at all. At least he realises how lucky they are.
He's got a great wig in the Jeff Beck tradition.
Bit late to the party, but I knew this guy at school who supported Malcolm Mcdonald. Which ever team he transferredto, he started supporting them. tbf, he was a United supporter at heart.
Chelsea would be against them as well. They've been banging on about FFP for ages. Probably because Cities money dwarfs their own.
Yeah the thread looked like the banhammer was out but he confessed. Something about he didn't think oppo fans were welcome...like I say, forums attract weirdos...The guy who pretended to be black was before my time I think but funny tale when you hear it.
I've seen weirder (and creepier) than that. The caf is actually pretty good compared to other forums as far as I can see.
I remember him from top trumps at primary school. He won on goals, but Hoddle was a beast on height.
Can't remember who he played for, Newcastle definitely, did he play for Arse as well?
He was Newcastle in my version, I think. Odd thing is Hoddle was only 6'1 but a giant back in the late '80s. None of yer 6'4 Skrotel's and the like.
Mcdonald was a fecking tank, or 'unit ' as we call them these days.
No neck though from memory.
Who needs a neck with a physic like that?
Am sure he was the Mickey Quinn of his day.
The guy who pretended to have studied the difference between right and left footed penalty takers...
Red Indian Chief Torn Rubber is a legend tbf.
In all this talk over there about alliances with Real to take on Uefa and sparking revolutions within the ECA to get rid of FFP, they seem to have overlooked one important point which is no one else in football outside of Many City fans give one single feck about Man City, or the fact they've been neutered by FFP.
If the Arabs pulled out tomorrow and City slid back into the obscurity financial doping dragged them out of, literally no one would care beyond some finding it hilarious.
They also have some cheek for fans of a club which has had everything handed to them on a plate. A modern stadium given to them by the council and £1b pumped in after winning the oil baron lottery, moaning about FFP like they are the only ones that have to comply with it. If they can't build a successful team with all the money being funnelled into City through all their fake 'sponsorships' then tough fecking luck.

I've never met a Man City fan who says the shite they sprout on that forum. Bluemoon is literally the most paranoid place on the internet.
And yeah they're right, Gill and other Fifa/Ueafa officials are probably doing all they can to make sure these losers feck right back off. They have no right to be dining at the table with Europe's elite. They get embarrassed every year in the most prestigious competition in the world, literally a waste of a CL spot. They are a club that are holding a lottery ticket and they all know it, the chances of them sustaining their domestic success is also minimal now as well.
That's why I'll always have boatloads of respect for Dortmund, they have worked their way back up the right way without being some billionaire's toy.
