Give it another couple of premier league titles and champions league titles and you wouldn't recognize our fan base.

I fuckin hate this lot! In 2010 when Crouch won em that decider in the night game. I remember being at one of my lowest ever ebs in being a blue, I really thought after beating Villa on the Saturday we'd do it. I was gutted, absolutely heart broken. Coming out of CB3(near the South stand corner) 2 knobheads got in my face as I was walking across the car park where the temp club shop is now, one of em literally stood in front of me and stopped me in my tracks and shouted 'You're fuckin shite'! So I one arrowed the **** clean off his feet. His mate screamed You've killed him you lunatic. I was still on a ban at the time, looked around and ran before any old bill could see me. Didn't stop running until I got in my car about 2 miles away. I hope the **** needed dental surgery. Absolute fuckin cretins they are.

My main take from this is Jesus parking's been fucking impossible at the etihad for over a decade :-D
 
It is a few long time season ticket holders getting lazy and cashing in near me quite a lot. Success.

There was a gobby spurs fan singing that shit Sterling scored and var song before the game trying to wind blues up.
He had a kid with him but was quite gobby and looking for trouble..some blue went up to him and said shut up or you will get twatted by someone eventually..he carried on being gobby and he nearly got twatted and hid behind his kid before going up to the police and saying some blue was trying to cause trouble...they are a fucking odd bunch.

Was walking away from the ground with my daughter and my dad, holding her hand so we wouldn't lose her in the crowd.

Two cockney arseholes thought it be funny to walk in between a father/grandfather holding their daughter/granddaughters hands.

Turned around shouting what you playing out and the odd balls laughing as they continue walking along the road towards Manchester.

Spurs are hated throughout London. They will be unbearable if they win anything soon.

It’s done, we’ve had the treble and now legacy fans are not wanted. Becoming everything we despised.

Tourist club - wouldn’t be surprised if the new stand is declared a neutral end.

Put on another thread that we are following the Barca path in hoping to attract thousands of tourist every week.

Barca used to get up to 20k tourists every home game at the Nou Camp paying €120 a ticket. Yet the tourist have all found better things to do now Barca are playing at at athletics stadium whilst the Nou Camp is refurbed and they had 34k there on Sunday for their 2nd biggest game of the season. Slippery slope.

City putting all the tickets for the season up for sale in August is part of the scam.

They hope nobody notices that they skim thousands of the tickets for the big games to be sold via agencies for £250.

They offer to buy your seasonticket off you for full price - but they never go up for sale on the site - they are sent to international agencies for tourist sales.

My block is all season ticket - yet this season I’ve had to tell some international tourist to get out of my seat at 3 games - including a fucking Liverpool fan 2 weeks ago.

Good post mate, and an accurate description of where we are now.

As others have said in recent days, we need a Supporters’ Trust to call out these major issues which are systematically driving away those of us who were there during the shit times.

The City Matters group may have the best of intentions but everything seems to be falling on deaf ears. Time to have a rethink and mobilise.

If the Matt responding is the person I'm thinking of, he's actually a sound guy.

Let's say he's gone above and beyond to stop fans from getting banned or in worse trouble a few times. He's on the south stand every home game and chats to fans.

I' know we've always had a dislike for them for results on the pitch against us, but never realised how much truth Chelsea fans say about Spurs.

Spurs came in the kippax away section at 5 past 3 once. Dibble stupidly thought no one was coming and let us stand in their bit...they stormed in and after some battling the police separated us and put temp barriers up between us (1977, 5 - 0?) It was mayhem all game . Cunts inside and ouside. Some of them were seriously hurt outside .......oh well.

Then came 1981 the replay ...City fan stabbed by Spurs on the car park holding his stomach.

Hated them for donkeys years not just for results. Proper not right cunts.

No he doesn't get it, like a lot in these positions at clubs or in the media. He's taken a frustrated football fans rant in a tweet as being abusive. He's taken it personally instead of it being a fan fed up with being surrounded by tourists, often supporting our opposition, in the home end. That's the way of the world now, everyone is offended if somebody complains or has a different opinion. He's in a customer service role he needs to grow a bit of a thicker skin.
 
TBH I really don’t give a fuck anymore. I honestly stopped bothering about the atmosphere quite a while a go, even though I do post on this thread. It’s more of a habit than anything else.


I‘ve missed a few PL homes this season for personal reasons. Like every other City fan I get bombarded by texts from City asking me to ’tout’ my match ticket to them on the ticket exchange. Not once have I touted my ticket to City, nor will I ever. As long as I continue to buy my season ticket, attend as many home matches as I can, City will never get one of my PL match tickets, even if it remains unused. I would rather give the ticket away for nothing or sell it at face value to another local, Legacy, FOC, City fan.

One more thing. I got stopped at the entrance to block 115 on Sunday. I was told to show my season ticket to prove I stand in that block, otherwise I would not be allowed into the block. There were 6 stewards at the entrance to the block. I’ve been stood in that block since it was made a singing section. How many years is that? I’m in 1894. I’ve helped with the flags, banners, displays, doing that in my own time, along with the other 1894 lads, etc.
