I just meant we will have the prestige of a club like Real Madrid if we continue to win. I wouldn't advocate for being smug like Liverpool is or even United. If the fanbase can remain humble we can be a shining example of decency.Please. No.

My colleague, who is an ultra-hard-core M25 Liverpool supporter, has shown me photos of his young lad at Wembley - he is nine I think - in our 23/24 home shirt. Bernardo is his favourite player and Wembley FA cup final was his grandparents birthday gift. The father is seething obviously, a sound man, but total bellend when it comes to football and them.
I started primary school in 2000, every kid was a Rag.If you were a kid at primary school now and didn’t support City every kid in that school would have you down as a balloon.

Must be honest, I am tempted.

I chose City as an underdog. I think many fans did.
Unfortunately the new fans we acquire now are going to be those that like to choose the easier option. That's just an inevitable fact.

Can only speak from the Australian fan point of view on this one.
The Haaland signing started a massive change. The success the past decade made a minor change. Haaland signing for us shifted what club the kids in Australia were following. It went from a few City shirts, to now City shirts with Haaland 9 on them all over the place. You'd rarely see it at my step sons football training now it's kids all over. Haaland is the rock star signing that shifted the balance.
Now the Champions League title will just amplify it imo. Will start taking the younger support away from the "traditional" clubs our way.
It's a funny journey to watch here.

None hopefully when we get stripped and relegated. Fucking bring it on.

Every lad supports City in my daughters class including my mates son and he's a massive Rag.
As somebody has said Haaland has proper tipped the balance as has our success. Jack definitely has more female fans following us.
More money in those tills at the Arndale.
