Compared to the Classless disrespectful tw-ts that their neighbours have become!
Give me back the Man City of old. Great fans in the 80's and 90's. Hated their more successful neighbours, like everyone else, with a passion but they were great fans who like ourselves supported their club through thin and thinner with loyalty till the end.
In the 80's/90's I remember a coach load of them always used to stop off at The Winghouse Pub in Tittensor on their way to away games, lead by probaby the fattest football fan in the world but what a nice fella. The Man City top he wore was basterdised from about 4 other shirts to get it to fit! Never any probs with them even though the pub would also be full of Stokies going to the Victoria Ground. Friendly banter and a kind of acceptance that this really was the way to be a football fan rather than taking the easy route and jumping on the " bandwagon " of supporting Man you or, in those days, the very successful Liverpool.
But what on earth has become of them now they have a few quid to spend to try and buy some success. Firstly they have a "souless" new stadium that even makes Lego Brittania look like a Micheal Angelo masterpiece! Their fans feel they have a god given right to eat at the top table yet after many years already of a " Pot full of Gold" they haven't achieved a single thing!
They have become disrespectful of other clubs all of a sudden to the point of absolute gutter insults. I'm all for a bit of banter but some of it is pure hatred and not even mildly amusing! At least their very very successful neighbours in comparison have, at minimum, earned the right to be cocky towards other clubs due to their demonstrable success and are deserving of the hatred sent their way. These lot still aren't on the radar really but are quickly earning the tag of most loathed club in the UK.
Their fans are sounding like a more dislikable Man Utd fan every single day, god help us, two sets of "shit" fans in one City. One deserves the tag the other is laughable in terms if what they think they are now! Get a grip guys your making yourselves look very silly!
Man City- You have no class, no real history of success, Your fans have become plastic just like your stadium, players and Manager. You will never in a million years match the success of "them" across the road and they will forever laugh at you! You can only try and pick on clubs like little ol Stoke because you can percieve them to be smaller than you! Clubs like Stoke, Bolton, Blackburn, Birmingham, Wolves WBA etc etc, you get the drift will always be "bigger" clubs than you because they have real fans still and know where their place is in the pecking order. Your current perception of Grandeur is so funny it has made me laugh as I type.
God I hope we do them on Saturday. Gooarrrrn Stoke.
