This is what I call the "Stepford Wives" philosophy - let's all pretend everything is fantastic and never criticise no matter how frustrating the performance. Fans have a right to make their views known, and a City forum is a relatively secure and safe place to do so. It's better than booing at the game, or trying to score points off fans of other teams on generalist forums. Only a buffoon would blindly praise everything City ever do. We would never have got rid of Alan Ball using your logic.M24 said:The so-called fans on this forum who just moan/slag city off all the time, why dont you all just go and watch another team.
If you cant 'support' the team dont bother at all.
I don't see how anybody can gauge the attitude of our fans, especially in comparison to a few years ago. If internet forums, were readily available 10/15 years ago, i'd bet we'd be having the same conversation then (well if i wasn't 9). It's just a forum garners much wider opinions from City fans from all walks of life. Opinion is bound to be divided, especially on a forum as large and inpersonal as this one.levets said:ono said:I can't believe nobody else has spotted that this thread has the potential to be another 'if you don't go, your a smaller blue than me' thread.
The title almost gives it away but the OP is smart. He waits until the 2nd page to ask TMQ if he goes to the match or if he just sits at home watching it on his computer.
Nice skills.
Yes, he's smart and been following City home & away for many many years... so he's entitled to question a section of our 'supporters'... The attitude of our 'support' has changed dramatically. Why?

I'll agree expectation has gone up and as such, shit results are harder to swallow, but overall i think it's impossible to compare our support to times of yesteryear.

I think the OP resents ANY criticism of City, at any time.CHT said:tommyducks said:This is what I call the "Stepford Wives" philosophy - let's all pretend everything is fantastic and never criticise no matter how frustrating the performance.
