How Much Did The 35 Years Thing Wind You Up?

[The Larch]

Of course it was annoying but obviously that was the whole idea of it - but how glorious that it bit them in the bum the way it did

I hope we can rise above being so vindictive as to start one running for them (as funny as it would be) - I prefer the Arsenal aproach of putting up the images of what you've won rather than highlighting what somebody else hasn't

The Carling Cup Semi Final didn't both me as much as others it seems.

Of course I was gutted at the lost and furious at the gloating shit they played while we were kept in, but I thought that this was only the start of the 'project' and there would be many more days like that to come.

Didnt wind me up, I loved my club inspite of it, it was almost what made us special and highlighted just how loyal our fans were.

Not even a tiny, winsy bit.

I support City for community reasons and I don't see winning trophies as the be all and end all.

Aguero, single-footedly, rammed it back down their throats on my, and every other City fan's, behalf.

They will have to live with that feeling forever.

The cruelty of that goal will never, ever subside and they will NEVER get over it.

God doesn't pay back in money. They got what they deserved...

Every bit of this ^ Why would it wind me up ? They started a silly schoolboy chant, 35 years 35 years etc. It must have taken them weeks to think that one up and get it going but immediatley we tagged on 'and were still here'. Now that did wind them up. I took pride in the fact that I followed my team no matter what and if we hadn't done the cup final this year or the league this, I would still be supporting them so I can 100% say it never wound me up.

Nice on Flash and Junior...........

Didn't bother me at all.

When other ( so called ) fans mentioned that we had not won a trophy in 35 years, I simply corrected their inacuracy. We won one in 1999 at Wembley after the Gillingham game and the old First Division trophy under Keegan.....

Ah yes "but that doesnt count" - comes the standard response!

Not at all,however a quick reminder of their 37 Trophyless years always left them with a vacant look!

Yes - very perceptive of you Junior.

There were a few answers to that effect but I did remind them that the actual First Divison Trophy was the same one that Liverpool had won so many times and that they had gone on to win the European Cup after winning that trophy. My argument was that ' 35 years and won f*** all ' was not true - we had won a trophy and that was that.

I didn't bring that argument into winning the play off against Gillingham, though.............sure you can appreciate why.................
