New supporters/interest in City.

[bluestevei]

Glory hunters are just vermin, end of.

Sad bastards with no moral fibre so they choose to 'support' whoever is winning things.

Blue, red or green, it doesn't matter to me, they're filthy scumbags and we don't want or need them.

When we do get them, I won't think of them as Blues, I'll think of them as a complete joke to society and laugh in their shithouse faces...we've been ridiculing United for having these morons supporting them, so why can't we ridicule our own glory hunters?

Most of us have been going home and away in the lower divisions and watching garbage for years...so what gives these people the right and who do they think they are to just come along, bang £400 down and say 'Hello, I'm a Manchester City fan and I found this club when they got rich, hell, I didn't know there was more than 1 club in Manchester 5 years ago!'

Sorry for the rant and if I've offended anyone, but it's just the way I feel

Stay away.

No problem, you haven't offended me. I've been coming since I was a young lad. Been to the Wycombe Wanderers on a wet night in January and lost, been to Swindon Town, Port Vale and the other shit houses. Your opinion pal and your entitled to it, It wont stop me coming to the games or supporting City. But I also don't wanna see untold City shirts all over the place it isn't right if they haven't been through the dark, desperate days like 'we have'. ;-)

You can allways tell a veteran blue by the
hangdog wore out look and the hunched shoulders

thats me

Plus the addiction to various substances,legal or not, that happy smile when he meets other blues and a deep sense of knowing we are born.

We can't win here in the states. We were laughed at for supporting City during the dark times and now we are called glory hunters for supporting City now. I was wearing my City top the other day at the store and this guy in a Chelsea jacket called me a glory hunter. After reminding him how ironic it is to be called a glory hunter by a Chelsea supporter I told him he was right. I said I have been hunting glory since 1994 and its finally in sight. He walked away with a stupid look on his face. Actually the same look Abromovich had when he got knocked out of the Champions League again this last season.

Haha well said bud....

I'm a Glory whore, I've been waiting so long for glory I was on my knees crying when we won the fa cup this season.

Still feels weird a few months on....

I was doing some work at a major building society about 6 months after the takeover and was talking to the executive sponsoring our project (sorry JMA - another management non-entity).

On finding out I was from Manchester he told me he was a rag but his young son had become a City fan.

 

[southern muppet]

Can we please stop this ridiculous hyperbole that there were actually people who 'didn't know there was more than one club in Manchester five years ago' ?

I know I have the picture of the Tevez lifting the cup as my desktop at work just to remind me it really happened. What an amazing feeling winning is especially when you have to wait for it. Now all I need is united to go down just one more time in my lifetime I can die having lived a full life. LOL

 

[Kayla-CTID]

Glory hunting fans will annoy me a bit..but..as long as they support us..then i suppose it's okay!

For me it's been passed down through generations of Mancunians, Grandad then Dad!

and to answer the question..no i've not seen a surge in support here in Plymouth..still full of boneheaded plastic scum fans

I think this thread would only be an issue if we had won the prem 2-3 times, and had done well in the champions league.The vast majority of glory hunters in this country follow the rags,and the next i would say is Liverpool.

We have won the F.A cup and achieved a place in the champions league for the first time in our history.We are at the beginning of what i'd like to think of as a long and successful chapter in the Clubs history,if that we're to draw glory hunting fans,then so be it.At least like most on here,i can say i was there when we we're shit!
