City Fans In Glasgow

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Never in my time I have asked a blue at the Etihad or Maine Rd or even when in the street "What is your religion "

Blue is blue
And a Rag is a Rag in my world

City were founded by Ulster Protestants if I recall correctly. United were always seen as the 'Catholic' team in Manchester. But that is all history now as it is between Liverpool and Everton.

At one stage there were religious divides between Hearts and Hibs in Edinburgh and Dundee and Dundee United. That is gone now. Only Glasgow and Belfast cling to these neandertal ideas.

Who were the Ulster Protestants who founded us ?

we were founded my members of the church of england. ( protestants)

Arthur Connell was from Northern Ireland. He and his daughter Anne were generally credited with founding City.

He was born in Mallow, Ireland in around 1822. He completed his theological training at St Aidan's Theological College in Birkenhead.

As Gary James has pointed out today, by the time City were formed in 1894 we "had Catholic, Protestant & Jewish influences/support".
