I think there is a difference between match-going fans who I often meet on away trips and the social media fanboys who seem more gullible and believe everything they see online. I have met lots of away fans who are supportive of what is happening at City. A lot of them despise MUFC and LFC and like to see them being taken down a peg or two.
Agree with this, but City have a huge reputational damage issue to deal with if we're cleared of the PL charges. Many internet scribes and so-called proper journalists have written scathing articles or comments about the level of financial cheating, the intentions and politics of our owners and the impact of our ownership and success on the future of football, whilst steadfastly adopting different tones on other owners, clubs and situations.
Would be great if the club came out fighting if we win, but suspect we won't no matter what happens.
