City Glory Hunters

Here's an idea. All those who support City now should go out and get a secret symbol tatooed on their arse. When City are winning stuff those who can reveal this secret symbol will be given priority access to matches. Thus leaving the glory hunters to wait for the remaining tickets.

PMSL what a novel idea.
 
As the club grows & becomes successful we are bound to attract new fans, I know that the majority of City fans have some connection with Manchester (Family etc), the more the merrier I say, it's a great club to support quite unlike any other IMO some of us need to be a little more welcoming to everyone who wants to support us
 
If we grab some silverwear it'll come wit the territory. I remember a lad called Andy Robinson coming into school wearing a Blackburn Rovers top the day after they won the Prem.... he was a red a couple of weeks before!
 
This has been mulled over, disected before but it still remains a thorny issue. For me I started watching City in 77/78 season so apart from two trips to Wembley in 81 that has been it. I have always wanted glory at city and therefore I could be described as a glory hunter if you will. I hope before I turn up me toes to witness City have some sucess. As for plastic fans these will always attach themselves to the club, however if ADUG and investment goes belly up (and I don't think it will) there will always be a hardcore support at City who will stick with the club through thick and thin and I have no doubt they relish the days spent in the wind and rain at away grounds in League 1. I don't think we need to worry about how the hardcore support identify themselves each and every one of us know the tribulations, memories good and bad that we have had in watching the only team from Manchester. This identity in my opinion seperates us from the rags and their hugh money machine and if in twenty years we have been as sucessful as they have and hated by everyone because of that sucess I will say it was worth it just to balance the 33 years we have spent in the wilderness.

im glad somebody wrote this thanks ducado.

if we attract glory hunters that means one thing we are winning trophys and playing very good football and us fans that have been waiting for 20-30 odd years will finally get the football we have craved for.

It's sad really. Tbh i would prefer to not fill the stadium each week with proepr fans than have iot full of glroy hunters who are not passionate about city
Nah fuck it. Let's just fill the stadium with Irish and Japanese and claim it as some sort of symbol of how great our club is like them twats down the road do!

Like it or not fella, it is indeed a symbol of the rag status around the world, and within 5 - 10 years it will be exactly the same for us.

Anyone who is not up for the glory times ahead and some collateral downsides, then it may be time to look elsewhere. City are coming and its like an unstopable juggernaut.

And there is nothing to say that the new geberation of fans will be any less passionate than we are now.
