No one can take them memories away boss..........we moaned back then too but didn't know what we had until we lost it.It is wonderful some of us lived through the Maine road days great bunch of lads didn’t give a fuck if we won or lost as we were all pissed having a great time, we knew we had zero chance of winning the league from the late 70’s onwards when I first started going but the buzz on a Saturday morning going to the greatest stadium in the world in moss side or going for the service/ special to away games will never be beaten, I am slowly now falling out of love with football will always love city but don’t have the desire anymore to go as it’s so corrupt and their not even hiding it. Pep has finally realised what we’re up against and it’s killing the game we’ve all loved growing up with, I think this will be my last season going regularly
Feel the heart has been ripped out of the game and it’s all designed to stop us and try to make the rags relevant again somehow along with the dippers,
Soon we will be in a mini league flying to Spain, Italy etc every other week as more moneys pumped in and football as we have known it will be no more
They don't want 'our' type at football anymore (Working class, middle aged, beer monsters) - their dream is grounds full of day trippers that spend fortunes at the souvenir shops first. The next step after this is moving the games around the world to the highest bidder to maximise their income.It is wonderful some of us lived through the Maine road days great bunch of lads didn’t give a fuck if we won or lost as we were all pissed having a great time, we knew we had zero chance of winning the league from the late 70’s onwards when I first started going but the buzz on a Saturday morning going to the greatest stadium in the world in moss side or going for the service/ special to away games will never be beaten, I am slowly now falling out of love with football will always love city but don’t have the desire anymore to go as it’s so corrupt and their not even hiding it.
