City's Global Fanbase

[idahoblues]

Sadly, needs must!

However, when saying goodbye at the cockpit door, if anyone is wearing anything Man U related, I always tell them they are "lucky I didn't see that before takeoff, or you wouldn't have come!" Have even been at the gate and pointed out someone wearing a United top, and said loudly, "That fella over there with that red top on needs to change his shirt if he wants to get on. I'm a Man City fan and I won't allow it!" Usually gets a laugh, but have seen a concerned face or two!

I think I already told this one, but I met Gordon Brown and his bodyguard in SFO and when I mentioned City, he told his son, Alistair, to turn around...City sweatshirt! Good lad!

;-)

I have a City scarf hanging up in my local, last summer two tourists walked in with Rag tops on. The waitress told them she couldn't serve them until she talked with me. She bluffed a phone call and told them I said it was OK but they weren't to hang out and should be gone by the time I got there. They didn't stay too long

Lucky bastards, you would've been riding them like Ned Beatty

City need to spend a bit on their website. In the internet age the web is crucial to a club with City's ambition for global domination In the grand scheme of things, the cost of having the best website would be trivial but the potential is vast, and for most foreign fans is a tangible link to the Etihad. In the not so distant future we could be challenging for the Intergalactic champions league..

I've coached my soccer-playing daughter's team for several years.

The rule is made very clear on Day 1 of practice: no Utd garb allowed. :)

Try being in Chester, just full of rags, candlepool, and loads of Everton fans, but must admit that seem to be seeing more and more city shirts, either that or I'm constantly wasted

I hide the United mags in Airport newsagents

Ha, me too...

my daughter goes to school in Timperley and I've got to say it is still absolutely rag infested.

I see more and more Blue shirts these days. Timperley Blues runs from the Quarry Bank
