So football history is just about league titles, interesting
Not entirely. Your history, for example, also (largely) involves being founded in the same city as United. This illustrious aspect of your history led to the sheiks buying your club and ploughing in over a billion pounds of transfer money. But for this glorious part of your history, City would still be stuck on 2 league titles.
Don't flatter yourself, I didn't support city for the trophies and I doubt the Sheiks were that bothered about anything to do with United when purchasing City as they also looked at Newcastle, and football history is far more than just titles as for example if it wasn't for City there is a decent chance United could have folded and then there is Manchester Central who could also have scuppered United way back when
Just switched onto their Champions League game tonight. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more dire atmosphere for a European night. Its like a testimonial. It’s just embarrassing.
You tell us. Does your football history consist of more than just Colin Bell?
You're having an absolute laugh and kidding yourself if you don't think you being our neighbours wasn't a MASSIVE reason you got chosen for the lottery win. They wanted to replicate great local rivalries. It was a huge factor, just embrace it and own it.
Yeah I'd say so, Bert Trautmann or Tommy Hutchinson are better quiz questions than Colin Bell anyway
Why you watching Man City???
Strange.
My mistake. Were it not for United, the sheiks might have bought Newcastle instead, and Newcastle would be nearing double figures in titles, while City would be stuck on 2.
I think 3500 of those pages were them celebrating the signing of Ronaldo and gloating on the Utd thread
More than likely, but when I started supporting city 40 years ago it wasn't for what they had won in the past and if they were still stuck on 2 league titles of still be supporting them as would many others, most teams don't have fans who support clubs for winning trophies and most have a rich history even without counting trophies, if I'd wanted to be a trophy hunter i'd have been a Liverpool fan back in the early 80's
Flicked on and off. You’re not going to call me a”raggy blue” are you..?!
After Pep's comments, their Etihad Atmosphere thread 20/21 (I can't believe they have an "atmosphere" thread....but not only that, they have one for each season!)
This one is brilliant.......Tickets were available for £17.50 last night but he wants them to be more affordable!

Lack of Computer courses is the problem....
Pep is playing 4D chess with the fans....
Desperate to win it, but not desperate to win it....
They had 53,000 last night apparently according to CEO of Specsavers...
They are still in Covid lockdown....
City fans are from Manchester.....
Some got really lucky with a bargain ticket once in a lifetime price....
They've all lost their jobs apparently....

It's because the stewards are too violent...It's not safe to go to the ground.
Even though they've all lost their jobs and don't have a computer degree to order tickets and can't afford £17.50, they all still managed to buy a ticket but simply couldn't make it....
I thought they all lived in Manchester....should be able to get home in 20 minutes.....apparently fans aren't ready to go back to live footy. They need some live footy watching lessons first.

This bloke hasn't been relevant for twenty-five years and is the biggest bandwagon supporter. Love seeing him tweet about United like some sort of small-time loser.
Just imagine, for one moment, him saying this as the coach of Bayern or Barca? Brutal.
While he was at Bayern, there was a discussion about the atmosphere in the stadium. But he did not discuss it, this was left to Hoeneß:
Difference between atmosphere an actual empty seats.
Fans not being ready to go to live football seems to be an issue only bothering City, funny that.
And if it wasn't for john Henry Davies and ironically Man City donations your club might not exist and Sunderland might have had your success
Its humiliating. An absolute embarrassment for a club that has thrown literally everything at being relevant. Supporters groups talking about covid and childcare it's absolutely laughable. A very successful middle Eastern business, a nothing club
City fans could only dream of something like this, 10 mins before kick off on Saturday.
Stop flicking yourself to Man City!
It's hard though because fans travelling from the UAE would have to travel for hours to see their local club.
Chelsea fans were upset with Mourinho one time back in 2015 when, after a game away at QPR of all teams, said he wishes to have an atmosphere at the Bridge similar what he'd just experienced at Loftus Road. I think Klopp said something similar about Anfield a few years ago. Most big clubs have problems with atmosphere in way or another, some have it worse than others, but I can't think of any other club who win major trophies regularly, that have such a big problem with attendance.
It’s comedy gold
Ha ha City fans clogging up the talk shows to tell everybody how hard it is to get tickets and banging on about have
ind 32,000 at Maine Road (capacity 80,000) in the third division. That obviously included away fans too. What ever spin they put in it, they just aren’t a big enough club. Only ‘local working class fans’, well a bloke called Talksport from Blackpool and another from Harrogate which isn’t local. They cannot defend it, their own manager begging for fans. They may put on free buses from Stockport this Saturday.

What makes it worse is Man City have invested so much money in the community and on the brand image of the club to increase its popularity!
You'll be surprised to know, yes they do. Many references to RagCafe on their forum and mentions of posts from here.
Seems the sport washing has worked.

The First Post is just tragic.
I hope the poor fellow is just an idiot and not a ignorant arse who can't see past his football club or what happens locally.

The layout and font on their forum is giving me a headache.
Maybe their owners should fly in a load of foreign workers to attend the games and sing songs, then make them live in the stadium during the week in horrid conditions. They have loads of experience doing that kind of human resources management.
I'll do it for one game; my price is free gasoline for life.
RaRa's wish you'd care about themEven we've left them behind now
It's the only west London club I dislike to be honest, so I can't exactly claim I don't care about them
Brentford and Fulham are the friendly neighbours, especially Brentford as this is the first season in my lifetime we've been in the same league. I was buzzing when you were promoted. I admire you quite a lot as a club. Fulham is the club I truly couldn't care any less about.
How about free charging for your electric car instead. You are from cali after all
OK. i am from asia so i do not know the geo of england etc.
So, Manchester are one big city/country?
So if Manchester are really divided by United and City, why aren't the other half supporting City? Is it because all of Manchester used to support United back in the day when City isn't relevant so 80% of Manchester is a United fan.
Or is it because of something else?
Hope my questions make sense. Thank you.

Damn Hoeness didn't leave anything untouched, we paid 350m EUR for the stadium and giving you tickets for 7 EUR won't pay for it. It's not our job to get the atmosphere going that is your job. What a hammer.
