Had a great trip to FC Twente in 1976 i think it was in the UEFA cup. Combined it with a couple of nights in Amsterdam a combination of Heineken and space cake make my memories of the trip very vague. Was 20 then 68 now where the f**k did the years go. Remember loads of City made the trip, euro trips rare in those days.As well as representing their own club, at least they were there to support City, jumping up when we scored.
It’s the fans of the opposition that we all see all too often (sometimes they’re just fans of one opposition player like the two Mo Salah fans sat in front of me when we played Liverpool last season), it’s these sort of twats who are actively wanting City to lose, and there are fucking far too many of them at our big games.
I had a similar experience at Anfield also. I actually did behave myself. Got found out when I didn't jump up and cheer when they were awarded a penalty and scored it. Five minutes later I was escorted out by two stewards, who told me "it was for my own good". Had to walk around the ground and got booted out via the Shankly gates.
They was no trouble though and even joined in clapping with us if you Hate man utd clap your hands and celebrated both our goals.Playing the rags tomorrow, but sureal and amusing them singing their own Chants tonight, quite a few in the north stand.

Good morning,
The problem with away fans in home areas isn't a Club specific issue. Unfortunately, supporters who are permitted to purchase home tickets sell them on. This can result in away supporters being in possession of tickets for home areas.
The ticket Terms and Conditions are clear, in that no away fan is allowed to utilise a home match ticket. Stewards actively engage and eject those supporters who contravene this, and we look to take further action against those ticket holders when they are identified.
If you see away supporters during the game in home areas, please make a member of staff aware. If you are unable to do this, then you can reach out after the game via this email or touting@mancity.com.
Kind regards,
Ticket Compliance Manager

The ones in my block were pointing and laughing between themselves at early leavers, as if to say ‘*nudge* look at them there, where the fuck are they off?’Was in SS1 116 last night. The FC Twente fans near me were sound enough, but a row of them turned at the end of the match as they didn't take kindly to being asked to move so others could exit to the ailes. They were defo looking fir a spark
The fc twenty fans in front of us all left 5 mins before the end.The ones in my block were pointing and laughing between themselves at early leavers, as if to say ‘*nudge* look at them there, where the fuck are they off?’
I think leaving a game early is weird to fans in other leagues.

When Hamburg equalised in 2009 a City fan sneered over the segregation barrier
"WHY AREN'T YOU SMILING YOU NAZI PIG?
When I replied that Whaley Bridge had never been part of the Third Reich he spent the next half hour trying to apologise, which on reflection,. didn't really make it right.
I’ve no idea how away fans are getting their hands on tickets in the home end but they definetely are.
They are sitting amongst City fans for both Premier League and Champions League games.
Tonight’s crowd was different to those games. It was nowhere near sold out and I don’t think you will have found one away supporter in the home end.
The club are spot on in their response to you mateEmailed city about this today and typically they passed the book.

They're not wrong, I say the same thing every game.The ones in my block were pointing and laughing between themselves at early leavers, as if to say ‘*nudge* look at them there, where the fuck are they off?’

Wasn't leaving early.The ones in my block were pointing and laughing between themselves at early leavers, as if to say ‘*nudge* look at them there, where the fuck are they off?’

So the club don't sell tickets/packages to football ticket sites who then sell on to anyone?The club are spot on in their response to you mate
Yes I was there the game ended 1 v 1 but I can’t remember who scored our goal. I think we went a goal down and if my memory hasn’t completely deserted me I recall no turnstiles just stairs up to entering the stadium.
