    What a great feeling/relief to be able to go into the summer period as champions and the transfer window with the biggest signing complete. Any new players are a bonus!

    When you say you are a fan of a club, what does it actually mean?

    Different leagues different game you can support both. If there had to be a choice made of course it’s bombers, Jets over all others. If I had to choose City winning premier league or Jets winning the Stanley cup id pick the Jets. Actually the nfl team I picked was the Dolphins because a Bombers...

    When you say you are a fan of a club, what does it actually mean?

    Couldn’t have said it better it’s the commitment. Once made it’s made no switching. My only caveat would be if all of a sudden my local city didn’t have a team in the league and now they do.Happened with my cities hockey team. Not sure how many of you have heard of Winnipeg but I just wanted to...

    When you say you are a fan of a club, what does it actually mean?

    Another thing that might be foreign to non North Americans is the concept of not supporting your local team. When my Jets play Toronto or Montreal half the fans will be supporting them. Co-mingled I might add as we do not have away fan sections. I never understood why you wouldn’t just cheer for...

I don’t like...

    When you say you are a fan of a club, what does it actually mean?

    This is exactly what happened to me. I support my local hockey team the Winnipeg Jets, im a die hard Jets fan from as early as I could remember. Makes sense because it’s my hometown team. No matter how bad they are they will always be my team and we are season ticket holders. For City I didn’t...

    On this day, did you celebrate when Dzeko scored?

    I did not, I was angry at them for blowing it, 2-2 made it worse for me

    How many points will be needed to win the league? (74 GD)

    If someone would have said to me at the start of the year that you can skip ahead to the end of the season and the scenario is as follows: City have won the league cup and are in the champions league final against Chelsea. City will need to beat one of Newcastle, Brighton or Everton and the...
