The only time I know 'man city' is used by City fans is the Mancini song! It's for southerners who think they know summat about us and clearly don't! We are beginning to be known world wide more and more by just 'City'. I always tell folk I'm a City fan and allow them to ask "Manchester City' which they invariably do! We are also getting away from the notion that you only need to say 'Manchester' when yer mean MANUre!

Totally agree! Cos it comes from Man 'Sh'ity. For me living in the Sauff, its always CITY. And they know straight away its Manchester City.
 
i have to put my hands up and say that i say Man city :-(

only because i follow my local club of cardiff and they are called The City as well and to save confusion of which city i am talking about, i call cardiff The City or City or BLUEbirds and manchester city - Man City.
 
I agree with the sentiments of most on this thread. 'Man City' just doesn't sound right to me, it's only ever said by people who know nothing about us as a club. Mostly the cockernees (like Rodney Marsh) use the term but surely to anyone in the know it's plain old 'City'.<br /><br />-- Tue Jun 25, 2013 10:36 am --<br /><br />

Support your local side you glory hunter! :-)
 
I have to say when I say City up here it's not always taken for granted I am talking about Manchester. So I often have to qualify it by saying Man City. I see nowt wrong with that and couldn't care less if anybody does.
 
I've never hard any blue, when verbally discussing us, use the term 'manchester city'. It's just 'City' for me. I've noticed too that people in the media use the term 'City' too, and I think people genuinely understand it's us they're talking about, and not Birmingham City, or any other 'City'. Same with United. Pundits refer to them as United, and people realise it is Manchester United they are referring too, and not any other 'United'.
