My mate's new banner

[Colliahhh]

i like it

what does the 8 in the bottom left hand corner mean though??!

The kings number?

Edit: just seen the other posts.

It was also the goal difference by which we won.
Looks like 8 might be a holier number than we thought.

Love it

 

[Josh Blue]

Pure quality that.

 

[PistonBlue]

Bit cheesy innit?

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

The King perhaps

Nope. Try again. Think of last season...

Is it the number of interviews given by Bryan Robson saying that we wouldn't be able to handle the pressure?

Its the number of pints that Bryan Robson had during that interview

 

[Ethan23]

assuming this will be taken to games... where should we expect to see it?

will look quality away from home

Clawing 8 points back from the Rags?

Correct.

Seems like a bit of a random thing to put on that particular banner.

What's everyone's opinions of my mate's new banner? Look out for it around the country this year:

Doubt I'll see it cos I'll be pissed up

 

[Dunne's own goal]

I love it.

I think the idea is the juxtaposition between the sentiment of the song and the reality of the end of last season. The banner asks the reader to examine their support of Manchester City and the emotions it stirs. It challenges the heart and soul to accept the wayward nature, and occasional joy, of football support. It also throws a humorous challenge to supporters of other teams, in the best tradition of football rivallry. I'd say it's situationism at it's best.
