Don't know what your issue with Dixon is. He's always been on our side.

Thing is, when I posted this, it wasn't about Lee Dixon but more generally how the media are changing the tone of the way they talk about us. However the direction this thread has gone has got me thinking.

This Lee Dixon is a blue thing. Well as it happens I saw Lee Dixon play at The Victoria Ground in 1988 and my mate who was next to me said the right back for Stoke is a blue.

So I've been aware of that fact for a while now. But what evidence do we actually have of that?

What has his involvement with the club been apart from watching the odd game when we're in London? Did he ever offer to get involved with the club when he retired? Did he talk like a fan when criticising us last season?

Maybe your definition of a fan is different to mine, but that falls well short of my expectations.

I can vouch for him as he went to my school if that's any help.

Seconded. Lee was in the year above me at school and I can 100% confirm he was a match-going City fan.

I'm sure all those years as a gooner have left their mark but once a blue always a blue as far as I'm concerned.

You'll know when the tide has finally turned - Merson will make a complimentary remark about us.

But after all the building up, when we have a fall (hopefully not Sunday) it will be all the sweeter for the natural City knockers - Lineker, Hansen, Lawrenson

If that were us , we would be pronounced as being second . Sky will never change , all of them are loyal followers of the rags and they praise them whenever they can.

But the fact is that , if you look at the table , there is no such thing as joint top , whoever is top , is top and look who that is :)
