Have we become expectant as a fanbase?

In general, old school City fans - prior to the Sheikh Mansour takeover - probably have a sense of perspective; having witnessed incompetence that eventually led to a season in Division Two. What we have witnessed since the takeover is a dream come true. The new breed, however, have been brainwashed by the doom and gloom merchants of Rupert Murdoch's Sky and therefore; have no patience and even less, a sense of perspective.
 
We kinda have to be, don't we? Our expectations have to be winning the major trophies every year and signing the best players. If I recall correctly, Bernardo said that the fans need to be harder on the players in terms of their UCL performances. We've spent more money than any other team and we have the best possible coach we can get, we have to aim for the absolute best.

Judging by the hysteria on Messi right now it's as though many feel like they've had their pants pulled down to have a smacked arse.

I try to stay grounded and not get worked up, not easy reading BM at the moment with all the dummy spitting that abounds.

I think some need to take a breather and a chill pill TBH. If he doesn't sign for us I'll be a bit disappointed, nowt more than that though.

I'm logging off here a few hours and not listening to TV or radio. Too much shite being spouted by know nowts IMO.

I won't be disappointed at all if we don't sign him.
People should remember we are not on a list of the top twenty transfers in terms of money. Our transfer business has been excellent, no club gets them all right.
Posting stuff like, ffs sign him now , whatever the price, ( not just messi).
Young players, with potential, and a great attitude , who are not bigger than the team or club has been the policy and I for one hope that remains the case.
 
Spoilt cunts now. We were disappointed by last season, a season which still had more silverware than I'd seen city win in my life prior to the takeover. Just as we laugh at the rags turning into '90's Liverpool we need to have half an eye on ourselves turning into '90's rags. I don't think older blues will ever get that smug and entitled, but I don't think my youngest lad has been to a game and seen city come away without a win and score at least 3. Still, at least we're not murdering other fans or commercialising tragedy yet. As for this place our success is attracting more red shite on the wum and general dicks. I'd gladly pay ric 5-10 quid a year if a membership fee put the rags/dippers off.
 
Hook line and sinker. Saying that signing Messi would of been more trouble than it was worth
