Now we all know City are huge (obviously) within Manchester itself but I have to say the reactions locally since Sunday have been incredible. I live in Whalley Range and was out and about yesterday and people seeing my City jacket have stopped the car to wind the window down with cheers, beeping horns etc etc.

I had one foreign gentleman actually approach me, shake my hand and utter the immortal line 'I love City, love City' whilst displaying a huge grin.

I know we will become popular all over the world because of the players we have signed, last years FA Cup win but this has propelled us in rocket like proportions within the boundaries of our own City.

We are winning back lost generations, making new friends, and this really is the rebirth of Manchester City.

I had to share this because the reactions I've had since Sunday have been quite overwhelming.

We live in Shipley, West Yorkshire and when we got back on Sunday evening, we went to a Chinese take-away for some chips.

A lad was coming out as I approached the door and he said, "Congratulations on winning the league".

The thing is, due to the WAY we won the league on Sunday, that has propelled us even further into the hearts and minds of so many neutrals.
Hammering QPR 8-0 would have left some saying "Well it was only QPR"
Coming from behind, during injury time was beyond what MOST people believed possible.
Therefore, we are now the team who can do anything in some peoples minds.
May 2013, RVP scores the winner in the 94th minute against Arsenal in the Champions eague Final.
You heard it here first.

Don't we hate the rags for being gloryhunters? Tell the random foreign gentleman to fuck off and support his own club.

The way we won on Sunday will attract many new types of fans. You couldn't make any more people jump on the bandwagon then a experience like that. This is the start of something big, we have arrived. Our club as we know it will never be the same again.

We hate the rags as there are about 70,000 of the glory hunting fuckers in their own ground.

If the Eitihad ever gets to those sort of numbers/percentages then I will start having a moan.
