Other fans perceptions of us

The kids tend to like us. I know it sounds a bit like a mickey take but we're very good on FIFA, PES, and Football Manager. Those video games have made City extraordinarily popular with the young'uns. Remember they don't care about football politics.

Similarly, non-Europeans (excluding the USA) won't have the hatred for us we tend to see.

The don't forget you've still got a lot of people that hate United and/or Liverpool to the point that they can see through the lies, and even if they don't like City, it's still United and/or Liverpool that get the hate.



This isn't me denying all the posts in this thread beforehand, but I thought I'd like to reassure some that the hate isn't universal.

I rarely talk to fans of other clubs these days as the usual crap the media post about us comes pouring out, plus their own bile. Last night I made an exception but sadly it went as expected.

I'm sitting in a pub in Didsbury watching the Arsenal game, my mates are half watching, half not. Anyway just before the start of the second half this couple come in, early sixties and ask if they can sit next to me. No problem. They start chatting, they are from Leicester, here for the weekend. They've just had a meal and are staying in Deansgate and ask me where the tram station is for getting back. They seem a nice couple. Then we start talking about football. They support Leicester, or so they say, more on that later.

The chat is reasonable at first then it starts. He reckons they have the best owners, then it's we do it the right way, win trophies without spending a fortune. Then it's Pep only wins because he manages clubs with money, he couldn't do it at lower clubs. This is when I go from being polite to having a pop back at these pricks. As I educate them a little he actually apologised for slagging us off saying he was a bit out of order. This shows how much the years of constant anti City shite spouted by the media affects people's perception of us as a club and our fanbase. I realised they are absolute half wits when they said Messi, arguably the best player that has ever been, should have stayed at Barcelona and played for NOTHING if he loved the club so much instead of crying on TV. You really couldn't make it up.

They saved the best until last though. As the conversation widened with others,as they left he mentioned they were going to do a tour of the swamp tomorrow,!!! Apparently it was his birthday treat. So he was probably a rag who now supports his local side as they're not doing too badly these days. I was gutted they left because I really wanted to discuss this little gem with him.

I hope the cunts are both in bed ill with food poisoning this morning and he misses the tour!!

Why wouldn’t any City fan love an interaction like this? They are always such great fun.

Football fans are easily the most unintelligent and impressionable set of people in the country.

Most football fans know absolutely fucking nowt about football, nowt about other clubs, and even nowt about their own clubs. They all follow made up narratives like sheep and don’t have the intelligence or the wherewithal to endeavour to learn about the truth. Bring up something from decades or even a century ago about their club and it’s the first time they’ve ever heard it.

They’re usually easy to spot: it’s all those “bantz” cunts with silly fringes and drink cheap shit beer and all listen to the same five bands, middle aged fat cunts whose arsecracks you can see over their oversized jeans who still buy physical copies of red top newspapers, oh and fanboys.

But sometimes they’re hard to spot and they’re seemingly nice older couples (like Paul’s example)…

but altogether as a group, the know-nowts are a good 85% of all football fans; full of cliches and spouting untruthfulness all while thinking they’re right.

The minority of football fans who have a bit of something about them and know their shit, they seem to like City and don’t have a problem with us. Funny that.

If you're in the mood yes. I expected better from two fans of their age, they know our history and how we stuck with the club through the dark days, when our main rivals were winning everything.
