Muffinned, not rolled.

I would like to think that we are now far too big and well run to return to the 90’s / 00’s version of city .. at least not in my lifetime anyway

The furthest we’ll drop is to a Chelsea or rags level.. challenging for the top 4 every season and picking up a trophy every few seasons .. before we hopefully return to dominate again

Yeah. Going the way of the rags/Chelsea and the merry go round of managers.

As long as the rags haven't sorted themselves out by then I can live with that.

Maybe the Guy/Gal from Okinawa etc is filming it as a memento of the one and only trip to Manchester they will make in their entire life -which for many it no doubt is.

Then video/photo yourself and watch the highlights. A memory of recording a game you’re not watching. Any road it’s what a chunk of our fan base is now, the club love them as they’ll spend far far more on a match day than I will and the half and half scarf sellers love them because they’ll buy their wares.

Edit: apart from tits that video themselves on the pitch at end of season. They are the epitome of “look at me”.

You can only live it once.

Standing with your phone in your hand watching it through a 6” screen is not living it.

You cannot recapture the experience on video no matter how good the phone is. So fully immerse yourself in the experience and let the senses we’ve developed as a species over millions of years enjoy it properly.

Plus there are permanent highlights of games all over the internet and they are immeasurably better than what a phone captures.

We'll see who are proper blues when our trophy success ends when we're back to being mediocre, or shite, like we once were.

Be nice to have a chance get an away ticket again instead of being swallowed up by a million phone flashing fukin tourists

I have over 29,000 points, I've been watching City for over 56 years and have had a season ticket for over 50 years. I saw almost every game, home and away, in the season we dropped into the third tier and I only missed two away games in the third tier season. I have only missed eight competitive home games in the last 36 seasons unless you include the fabricated nonsense of the Full Members Cup in which case it increases to nine. I've dragged myself all over the country to see silly kick-off times and I've seen away games across Europe.
AND I'LL CALL OUT A SHITE PERFORMANCE IF I SEE A SHITE PERFORMANCE.
The happy-clappies who refuse to criticise piss me off almost as much as those who complain about everything.

After all this time and then finally us becoming the dominant team in the league, the only thing left for me to hope for is a winning team made up of as many homegrown players as possible.
The icing on the cake and with a few in the squad aging I'm hoping some more youth get a chance tbh.

I know that goes against a lot of peoples wishes of buy another 10 world class players and go again mantra and I wouldn't be bothered if we did that but I would like us to use our fantastic youth academy to its full capabilities.

Lewis, Pusey, Wright, Doyle, Burns, O'Reilly, McAtee, Bobb, Foden and others looking to take the next step up.

If we could have kept Lavia instead of buying Phillips and I'll add Palmer in on top, maybe even THB as well.

A pipe dream, probably but it would be good to see.

Yeah, but can it do selfies?
