New fans/tourists are embarrassing

[Cheesy]

Well this thread has made me think long & hard about a few things.

I've now decided to ban my Mrs from going to games. She's only ever been twice (the last two home games) and doesn't know the words to all the songs yet. She certainly wasn't there when we were shit either.

If we don't get new fans how will we fill a bigger stadium when we eventually extend?

Oh and I take photos at games, it's called creating memories.

No creating memories is what you do. Saving memories is taking the pictures. A memory isn't created in a photo.

Lol, Mr Pedantic, you know what I mean.

:-)

Possibly get her in on a medium rare breed bluecard?

wimmin shouldn't be allowed at footy - it's a working man's sport. always has been, always will be.

The attendance figures would be very low in that case ;-)

I can understand fans who have put in the hard graft and supported the team through the bad times being a bit frustrated with new fans coming along now we are being successful.

But any success won't mean anywhere near as much to new fans as it does to longer term fans. That's not a dig at them whatsoever, it's just simply not possible to develop those emotions overnight. No matter what they do they can't buy the same feelings the longer term fans are going to have in the next few years (although perhaps City will find a way, Total Recall style!).

So with this in mind, they can't jump on the same bandwagon as you, that set off a long time ago. Just relax and let them enjoy it in their own way, they are not doing any harm.
