City attacking face value sites - cultural war on supporters ?

[johnnytapia]

Does that include Barrow? Being a Barrovian, I’ve seen City play here twice, once under John Bond and once under Peter Reid. Both were testimonials and both times City put out a very decent side.

100%

'cultural war on supporters' - ffs.

Think I'm close to 100 away grounds with City but that includes double counting for clubs that have moved such as Saints, WHU and Hudds etc.

Me too 105 including European

81 different grounds 21 different countries if you include the home nations as different countries

Why is there an assumption that if you are Asian you are a tourist and don't support City? They are just as likely to be local as any other fan.

Why are you assuming I'm talking about asians? I'm talking about any tit with a camera out filming the opposition scoring a goal, couldn't give a monkeys what colour they are. Behaviour like that screams tourist. And twat.

Young people use phones.

Usually not when another team scores against theirs, that's how you spot a tourist as people have pointed out here on numerous occasions.

Just as long as there isn't a belief forming that Asian fans at City are likely to be tourists or a problem. Manchester has a huge Asian community, and they are welcome at City. If you go to some football clubs in other Northern cities you won't find that. That is a strength of Manchester.

People have explained what a tourist is, are you wilfully ignoring their description of a tourist and replacing it with your own?

The diversity speech really isn't needed mate.

60% of the people in the world live in Asian countries, but you lump them as one community, which is offensive to the diverse cultures.

125 ground, 105 teams, but only 9 countries. Few more grounds to add but not when watching City.

Cheers, but I started seeing the odd away game over 50 years ago.

If I phoned the club up tomorrow, and advise I won’t make 10 home matches this year, is there anyway they will take my season ticket off me now?

That's the spirit!

That's the spirit!

Lol - in the spirit of this thread though, give it another 12 months of these performances and we'll be back to tickets just being based on points and the club won't give a fuck where they end up ;)

If the derby is as big a disaster as I'm fearing it'll be, I'm just stopping my direct debit.

We'll be back to "Buy one, get four free" at this rate. I interviewed Cyril Mintz of "I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair & look what it's done to me" fame before he died and he told me he wrote to the club to ask for a ticket for an away game at Derby in the FA Cup. They sent him a couple of dozen and expected him to get rid of them and send them the money.

Lmfao - I'm in a "gallows humour" frame of mind tonight.
Back in '76 when me stepdad got me into City I naively believed it would always be about winning trophies - little did that 8 y.o. know ;)
We've hit a bump - let's see how the tourists react
