How long have you genuinely supported our city

Started 1966 aged just 11. City had just been promoted and probably World Cup win that year drove my interest. I seem to remember lots of publicity about attendances being mega following the WC that season.
Was fortunate to see the glory years of Colin Bell, Lee, Summerbee etc etc. Lots of trophys and fantastic football.
 
Born in 1965. The council estate i grew up on as a kid, You either supported city or leeds. Think i chose city because all the older lads supported them. Anyhow the first proper game i can remember as a city fan was loosing to wolves in the 74 lge cup final. It hurt then and its been all hurt ever since. But im a true blue. been to about a hundred or so games over the years ( YES THE 5-1 included ). Now proud to say iv brought my son up as a loyal blue who is as mad about city as i have always been...CITD
 
41 years. First game 12th October 1968 City 4 Spurs 0, Lee 2, Coleman, Connor. I was 7-years old. Year after the 'ballet on ice'. Was lucky to have been brought up on Bell, Lee, Summerbee, Young, Oakes, booth, Book et al. I've seen us relegated 5-times and more false dawns than I care to remember, Swales masterplan to overwhelm U*d, Forward with Frannie... A love that will never die.
