I must have been pretending for sixty years then, unlike many on these pages I actually went to Maine Road and now to Eastlands . I grew up in Bradford, Manchester and my comment seeks to balance the euphoria of city's success against the motivations of it's new owners who seek to launder their reputation by pretending it's all done for Manchester City supporters in order to promote the global branding of their undemocratic Country and it's Etihad Airways - National Airline of United Arab Emirates
Read it again if you ever bothered to at all, he tells his people it's their club. If you don't get that, it's you who is pathetic
Tell me about 'Dignity and Pride' please. Or were you full of this when we had the embarrassing Peter Swales turn our club from a dynamic force into a joke of a club? And what did you feel when we won the league? Please tell us.
I think there's a distinct whiff of racism in your comments. Are you the great Mr Shindler, by any chance?
Pride my friend is to me about sixty years of support as a paying City fan through the thick and thin of all those years, plus the fact that I have three generations of my family currently holding season cards. I love the great football we are playing now and the success it brings, including our Premiership title and the bragging rights over United
Racism? Bert Trautman, a Nazi trooper, was my hero in 1953 just eight years after WW2 and still is but no, I am not comfortable with the current ownership for the reasons I have already stated. Neither am I happy with Munich chants. We lost one of our own in that disaster
One last point, successful or not, Peter Swales who loved this club, put thousands of pounds of his personal wealth into Manchester City before he died. Ask yourself how much you have contributed?
