How many more people will now become City fans?

[deegee33]

On a less ironic note, especially with messi leaving the dump in northeastern france, City are becoming the default team for many over (juve are still big where I am)and rags.

Not at 10th & Morris, bakery has a whole window dedicated to Napoli and their serie A triumph. And credit where it is due, I have turned Mummers row into a bit of "Blue Heaven".
What part of Philly are you in?

My pal at city (works in marketing so should know what hes on about) says they predict an additional 250k in shirt sales on the back of the champs league win.
Now we get very little of that money, puma will get it. But it means we get a much better deal next time round.

We are by far the fastest growing club (shirt sales wise) in asia and america. Still a long way off the istree clubs but our curve is rising at a very steep rate.
Arsenal have africa sewn up.

Not true that (as some one said above) that most shirts sold are fakes.
Well
Ok might be true in a sense but we sell A LOT of genuine shirts. There is a lot of money in asia and they want the genuine gear.

Anyway, dont shoot the messenger, just repeating a convo from 2 weeks ago.

The blue moon is rising world wide

Spot on. Let’s not get too giddy. So many of these “fans” are just temporary until the next flavour of the month comes round. You cannot monetise the overseas fans, most of the shirts are fake.

Disagree tbh, shirt sales are the tip of the iceberg - City will be finding lots of ways to monetise this goodwill including the sponsorships and tie-ins they can sell, value to their IP, and let’s face it data harvesting etc etc. I think it is a different game nowadays.

Fans, supporters, or transient glory seekers.

The latter are a fucking embarrassment and nuisance (as witnessed last night)

Supporters will be long term casuals who buy gear, attend occasional games and fight our corner.

Fans,particularly young new generation Mancs, are our very important long term local core Blues They will be new long term season ticket holders.

The JCL glory seekers can fuck off !!

It will be but it will be sometime in the future and it will be digital. Current worldwide brands have not monetised overseas fans so far.

Buenos Aries Blues are almost a million strong judging by the parade to see Zabba lift a CL replica today

Thought that was the York game for a second.

Not really Philly, I’m about as far away from Philly as MU is from Manchester.

Will have its negatives.
Our glory hunting self entitled fan base will expand
