I come from Essex and throughout school it was all United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Ipswich fans. You had the occasional Spurs and Norwich fans too.

All of a sudden one of my good old school friends has uploaded pictures of him in his Manchester City shirt posing. Even though he had a Manchester United rucksack and claimed he was a true fan after changing his team from Liverpool.

But you're not even a City fan, so why do you even care?

I have always lived in the North East. Had a season ticket from the age of 19 untill i was 35. Still get down to about 12 home games a season and about 4 away ones. Imagine my shock the other day when someone walked into the gym wearing a Utd top, saw me on the treadmill in a City shirt and made the comment "is your bandwagon parked outside". Asked this fool how old he was and many times he had been to Utd. Answer - 35 and "have never been to a match but i intend to do so shortly as my wi8fe bought me a ticket for the stadium tour for my birthday".

This guy could not understand why i found it so amusing.

This happens to me when I walk around London with my Home shirt on (They usually don't recognise the away shirt). It's kind of 'laugh at the bandwagoner' until I open my mouth and shout at them. The accent is a dead give away.

Just because I'm not a City fan I'm not allowed to dislike plastics?

Don't you hate plastic United fans? I dislike them too.

WIth respect, I am a new fan, and let me assure you City are easy Club to get addicted. I cannot wait to come back to Manchester and party with you all again...I came over in November for the Derby and Birmingham City matches. Let me share a couple observations about my visit...Manchester women are stunningly beautiful. So many skirts, and do you remember the wind that week! And Manchester women love American accents. It was either that or my pecs, but I digress. My point is if it comes down to me not adapting all the Mancunisms of English and it offends a few on this forum, or it helps me meet birds at Sinclair's Oyster Bar, I pick the accent for me.

Let me say this, American football playoffs are on, and I am watching Leicester and Millwall, still brooding about the Villa loss--never could have seen this happening two years before world cup. You all are blesses to have a cool city with beautiful women and people in the bars are so fun to drink with, and City are so easy to get truly addicted to. The drama is constant, the hopes so high, and the spectre of 'typical City" always seems to linger at even a small level.

I have not taken a troller to the Faroe Islands, yet, but I cannot wait to have my City stories from around the world...Rest assured you party with me on a City weekend, its on like Donkey Kong...

Besides, when it came to "plastics", everyone seemed to accept my plastic debit card just fine at the pubs around Manchester...but again, I digress. Cheers!

Who do you support?

Spurs. I think throughout school and the area I grew up in I see more United and Liverpool fans than any London club. Which makes sense, United fans are from down South
