Nice to hear the pro West Ham sentiments! My first recollection of City proper, was being distraught after they lost to Spurs in the 81 cup final. I hated Spurs then and still do!
I was at the game when City were relegated in 87 at Upton Park, there was a massive show of mutual respect that day and City have remained my favourite other team since.
Having seen the City fans suffer false dawns and numerous fiascos over a couple of decades now, yesterday seemed like a long overdue reward to City fans for unwavering loyalty and support.
The City team were superb, your support was magnificent and the victory thoroughly deserved. I cheered every single goal and was delighted to see the arrogant, glory hunting, United fans desert their team and show their true colours, it wasn't even at 6-1, 5-1, or even 4-1, they deserted in droves at two and three goals down. Man U fans finally showed the watching world what they are really all about. Glory hunting, arrogant tw*ts who couldn't stand behind their team when they needed it most. I guess it's easy to support a team who rarely lose at home but heaven forbid they go behind, they all ran for the exits.
It is only three points, but I truly hope the result leads to a change in the long run, Sky and their big four (Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea) can fuck off. I hope City keep spending and winning and some proper fans can enjoy some long overdue sustained success!
(Should West Ham get promoted, I'll still want six points off City next year though!!
