"5k free tickets" lie

[JGL07]

I think the do give away tickets to schools and kids football teams, but it’s never made public. We certainly don’t give away tickets, just think how mental that sounds. If you believe it you’re an idiot.

City certainly did in the less attractive Champions League Group Stage matches a few years back. I recall a match where there were a large group of schoolchildren from Bradford. They spilled over into our seats and we had to get the stewards to move them.

so they dont find pictures of rows of empty seat it's time to change narative city give thousands of tickets away

 

[LongsightM13]

A few Newcastle & Sunderland fans have mentioned to me about us giving away tickets. It varies between 5k & 15k depending on whothey believe.

The very first time I noticed an empteh seats reference was against Newcastle a few years back. Their one horse town tinpot pikeys singing ‘theyre here, they’ve they’re there’ etc
Ironic as they had only taken the small allocation

Every club does this including all the redshirts. Good marketing to capture the next generation

Just imagine how sad the people making up this shit are. Proper bitter cunts.

Geoff and Ged the bitter reds, from some shit little town like Matlock. Two brothers in their forties who still live at home with their Mam in a little shithole of a house that’s not been decorated since the early 80s, where they share a bedroom which is covered in United posters and flags, bunk beds in the corner. Using their Mam’s old 1990s PC in the back bedroom to go online and use Twitter to spread made up shit about City… they’ve never been to a game, mind. Never even been to Manchester.

Fridge full of this shit,

They drink that in the evenings while they watch MOTD reruns from the 90s, still in their United pyjamas while they wait for their fifth takeaway delivery of the week.

Their fat slag of a Mother still in a flowery nighty she’s had on since Tuesday. All of them on the Disability when there’s fuck all wrong with them.

Dad fucked off decades ago when they were kids.

House smells of piss, cigs and dogs.

This is what 90% of United’s British and Irish fanbase are like. I wouldn’t worry about made up Twitter shit from the bitters.

I’m nominating you for a Pulitzer Prize

Fake news from a supporter of a club that makes it's tannoy announcements in Norwegian

Took a look at Rawk and found the offending image. Here it is:


I read the comments to see how desperate they are to believe this. Rawk doesn't disappoint on that mark, despite the grammar used being amateur, for an official club tweet and anyone being able to check the official Man City twitter timeline(21st August 11am) to see it's not there quite easily(literally just takes a minute to check). To be fair, there's only a couple of idiots who have bought into it without questioning it but this will still become part of their anti-city folklore for years to come, as with most things they say to City fans.

Massive club

There's a picture going around Facebook of an almost empty top tier of their stand supposedly of today's game and I didn't actually believe it til I signed in and saw this.

Edit: here's the pic

I love how he tries to make out that he's not easily led, into believing stuff like this. Only one person had the sense to question when it was taken.

From just before kick-off, on the TV footage:

Sorry about the blurriness, if someone has the full HD footage, they can easily post a better one but you get the gist.

We do seem to have a lot of people who filter to their seats seconds before or sometimes after kick off(especially the corporate/hospitality seating but having experienced it, I know why, beer and food mostly... fantastic btw), does that not happen at the rest of the big 6 clubs just the same though? I suppose the 10-15mins early leavers crew, is a City specific thing but I doubt that is.

Also noticed that they were fuming at Sherwood for giving praise to Pep and the team(anyone know what program that was on?), whilst also saying City fans are "a bananas fanbase, who cry about BBC match ratings"(no surprise they love the BBC's attitude towards City). The lack of self awareness of that fanbase, really is their calling card.

They're one really badly spoilt fan base these days. Prickly and very defensive too.

You have to laugh at that. Take your abuse quietly City fans, stop being so defensive and "prickly" about it.

I had this yesterday from a couple of plastics.
Once it was pointed out it was a low quality fake and then then I asked them if they genuinely believed the looky looky men on holiday were selling them actual real Rolex subs for €30 they soon shut the fuck up.
Dickheads will always be dickheads though. Asked them when the next protest was, no answer.
Probably too busy ironing their sheepskins and Zebra pants, the embarrassing massive Yonner and Yorkshire small town tinpot tramps

Link here to David Lynch in the MUEN and his red circles from 2014. So, it's probably been running for, what. 10 years or so?
Also a link in the article to the response from @Ric

David Lynch: We're not really here... no, really

Manchester City cannot ignore the fact that their defeat to Chelsea was played out in front of some empty seats and must be careful over expansion plans as a result.
