Didsbury Dave said:I was too busy roaring like a bull to cry at full time and was preoccupied hugging everyone and generally behaving like I'd done a handful of strong party smarties. Our celebrations round the Wembley pubs were long and lusty.
"City, we're coming back again, City, we're coming back again"
After 13 hours boozing and celebrating I got back to the hotel room and rolled a bifter to calm myself down. I put my phone on charge as it had gone flat during the game. As the charge came in the first message I recieved was a video, sent by my wife just after the game. It was my three kids (all 4 and under) doing the Poznan on the settee 200 miles away shouting "City!" at the tops of their voices.
I filled up then.
Whats its gonna be like Dave if we lift the trophy- i reckon i will get put in the priory!
I admit I shed a few tears at the end, I looked in the seats that had emptied in the rag end and it read Wembley and I realised the scale of what we had done and that we were now 90 minutes away from actually winning a trophy, then I thought about Mansfield and Lincoln at home back in the dark days and i just lost it but I don't care to admit it, just hope to god we finish the job!

Yep... brought a tear to my eye ..... when I saw 40k blues all unified and "doing the poznan" when the rag team was read out and then again at the final whistle........ I also shed a tear in 99 so I've always been a soft twat.
Noel Gallagher also admits to "shedding a tear" ..... on the OS (Scully's report)

Is that Mick I met in the canteen at N........d?<br /><br />-- Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:31 pm --<br /><br />Yep I was welling up with shear fucking joy. I did at the birth of my kids and I wept with sadness when my mate committed suicide and also when City got relegated at Stoke. No shame at all fellas, it's human nature.mancitymick said:Crying, not me I am man enough to admit it, Just pissed my self!!

Grabbed practically everyone around me at some point and gave them the biggest hug possible. Didn't see a thing on the pitch, missed the Balotelli fracas and the players Poznan but what the hell.
Grabbed my wife and daughters and told them this is why all trips over the years were worth it and my eldest girl hugged me back and said 'Dad do you remember the captain pugwash at Norwich'. I used to buy my daughters a TY beanie toy in the services after long trips away when they were younger but for some reason we always remember a free pirate/Captain Pugwash we got at a Mcdonalds on the way back from Norwich, he was wearing a black and red top and it made us laugh and say he was wearing a City away kit. It's a daft little thing I know but its something we remember and when she said it I had to hold her close with a lump in my throat and hold it all back.
Don't you just fucking LOVE CITY!
