City football shirts everywhere

[Essex blue]

We live in Essex and today I took a half day and took the kids upto London for a day out.

I was surprised by the number of kids wearing the latest home shirt. Today I counted at least 7 kids wearing city shirts and only saw 2 arsenal shirts and 1 West Ham shirt!

My sons under 11 team has a squad of 13 and 4 of them including my son are city fans. Not unusual in Manchester but in Essex it is!

How times are changing as it was always Utd or Liverpool shirts if it wasn’t a London team.

Is anyone else noticing the large number of kids outside of Manchester wearing the famous blue

Definitely NOT in Somerset. Still Rags and Dippers to the fore. In my years teaching down here from 2007 I came across 2 Manchester City pencil cases.

Plenty in Chicago these days. Very few Rags about the place, I notice. You even see more West Ham fans here than Swamp Donkeys at the minute

No youngsters with Celtic shirts.
However every 2nd father of those kids has a Celtic jersey.

Its increasing here on the isle if thanet. I have seen more of our new shirt than ever before.

But the most common are the dippers followed by the rags, in the kids age group's. Adults are mostly London clubs.

Saw a bloke with a City tattoo on his leg so we compared tatts lol i think he was surprised to see another City fan in ramsgate. I normally see City fans in the age group of 50 plus around here, mostly are visiting the area.

I travelled with a girl i met in India and Nepal back in 1991, she was from ramsgate and a rag,her brother followed them home and away,no connections to Manchester,
Last thing i ever said to her when we went our seperate ways
" tell your brother he's a **** "

The signing of Haaland was a masterstroke in terms of getting kids to want the shirt. I bet 90% of them get his shirt, 5% Foden and 5% the rest.
