Not all Hyde Fans unfortunately, my brother-in-law, for some reason a Norwich City Fan ??, used to go to Hyde all the time but wont go now because of the City influence on the Ground etc...TIGER FEET said:scall said:I thought the name change was because Hyde United FC went under (wound up by HMRC?), and Hyde FC was created?
City haven't "bought out" Hyde, they've just invested a lot of money into the club and stadium. The Elite Development Squad play their games there, and as part of the deal, CITC sponsor Hyde FC, and City have had the infrastructure at Ewan Fields improved.
No we were not wound up we paid all the money back to the taxman. We changed our name because it is the 125th anniversary of football in Hyde so we went back to our roots. Which mean't changing our name and home kit colour. from red to white.

Clubber said:They were originally called Hyde FC, changed to Hyde United and have now reverted back to their original name, probably because of the link with us.
Oh and yes that as well but to me without your help we wouldn't be here so I am grateful as are most of the Hyde fans.

If you can't make Hyde you could always take a place in the less presigious 'Leaky Creaky Stand' at Brantingham Road for:
Maine Road FC v Stone Dominoes
3:00pm K.O. £5 (£3 concessions, accompanied children free)
City colours very welcome.
Get a flavour of it:

I love going to Maine Road games as well - went to 5 or 6 last season.
Do you guys still have the really good keeper from last year?
Andrew Jones, our 'keeper last year and before (in fact, 130+ consecutive appearances) eventually went to Winsford United at the start of the season. As luck would have it, Greg Hall who has played for us both up front and in goals returned and took over. I now hear that 'A.J.' might be returning as well, so we could be very strong in the goalkeeping department.
Road were a feature on Imagine FM's Bluemoon programme last Sunday (about 18mins in)

The only non league match I've seen was Hyde away to Hinckley, was hoping there'd be at least one away supporter there but unfortunately not ... the train ride back to Manchester was particularly boring. Have to admit I supported Hinckley ... their fans won me over with some ripping stories about how they sang Blue Moon during their away win over FCUM in the cup, and as a result the scum went after them on the way out!
But Maine Road and Hyde are definitely top of the list of non league teams I want to see play at home!
