Norwich over Ipswich - the weakest link banner when we went down.
Swansea over Cardiff - Cardiff knocked us out of the fa cup

The annoying fan with the bell is Mr Portsmouth, real name John westwood i think.
Met him once a good few years ago , City beat them 6-0 at Etihad , he was getting in a minibus full of fellow Pompey nutters, shook my had and wished us well the we had only come into the money about a month before sound bloke.
2008/9 season.
 
Spurs over Arsenal

I’ve always disliked Arsenal except when they were United’s biggest rival in the league back in the day, that’s the only time I’ve wanted them to do ok but that’s due to despising United. I don’t really care about Spurs one way or the other, except when we are playing them.

Rangers > Celtic
AC > Inter
Sunderland > Newcastle (prefer Boro over both)
Real > Atletico (proper shithouse side)
Everton > Liverpool
 
Sheffield Wednesday in the Steel City Derby. Always liked them. In the north London Derby I’d go with Spurs, since they too have obnoxious red rivals (and I’m Jewish so I’m supposed to like them apparently). Manchester Derby, I have always rooted for City and no, I’m not just saying this because I’m on a City forum.

I wonder if this is down to 'em looking a more formidable outfit (last night excepted) than previous seasons. We were much loved before we started winning and the RDAHMeedya and associated shitehawks took and still take great exception with every point we accumulate.

And had I the misfortune of living in North London, but an avid footy fan, I'd plump for Barnet!

Not for me. Ever since the takeover they’ve been the biggest moaners about City. Booing everyone we signed from them, racially abusing Adebayor, Wenger constantly moaning about us, ringleaders in writing letters to the Prem and CAS, we’ve had more fights down at Wembley with these twats than all other clubs put together in the last ten years, their fans are a disgrace towards their own club when things aren’t going their way, Alan Davies’ racist rant, banners about class and tradition… bunch of twats.

I don't like any other football team.
There was a time when I kept an eye on Valencia but something happened to change that. Can't think what that might be.

I remember that day well. Coachload of them rolled up at the Railway in Openshaw for a pre-match session. They couldn't believe how cheap a pint of Holts lager was compared to darn sarf. They couldnt get enough down them & one of them told me the savings on the drink covered the cost of his coach fare. A right crew, but they were a good set of lads with no hint of bother. I doubt though that any if them could see the game by the time they left. Probably a good thing considering the result.

The same as many others on here, with a few exceptions......Scottish football just doesn't do it for me at all but if I had to pick one it would probably be Hibs because of Irvine Welsh.

Tough to pick a London club. West Ham would be an obvious choice but somehow have Spurs as a second choice despite really having no time for them at all. I only like them when I'm pissed and listening to Chas and Dave. Don't drink now so they are collecting dust on my shelf of affections.

Wednesday
Everton (more than just a protest against Liverpool, late grandad was scouse and Evertonian)
Sunderland

The three above would be clubs I'm happy to see win if they aren't playing City.
 
Lots of people picking West Ham as their London club. I quite like them, too, but you know, they definitely don't like us as much as we seem to like them. I occasionally post on KUMB. I've had some quite aggressive stuff come back at me on there. Not bothered by it (goes with the territory), and I'm always scrupulously respectful on other people's forums, but it sort of established things fairly clearly.
