One can only speculate but Stockport would be getting 20’000 a game & Chelsea shirt sales would go through the roof, we’d play in the athletics stadium in front of 450 people, with Steve Coppell as manager and SWP captaining the side, the campus would be turned into a giant interactive football site ran by Kick Airyeah and what will happen to the club when the sheikh gets bored??
It's not really old school lifetime blues who are attending CL matches filling the slack from the regulars in my experience. It's new fans from around the world, students, neutrals and tourists who can't get into Premier Leagie games.I think there’s quite a lot of lifelong blues out there who have been priced out or lost the habit of regularly attending. They clearly haven’t stopped being City fans and the absolute world star we’ve bought coupled with decent prices have enticed them back. Long may it continue.

I hope so. I also notice a lot of kids with their mothers for some reason. I'd guess that the kid has decided to support City and these are the games the mum can get tickets for. It's another reason the club should move the singers together and improve the atmosphere. Sitting in silence because our fans are being outnoised by a lot of berks bouncing and banging a drum is not as attractive to those kids who we need to hook in for life.Absolutely Dave, there are lots of ‘new’ blues but there’s no doubt ‘old-timers’ are popping up in their droves, I’ve seen them! Why wouldn’t they?
I've noticed this mum and kids thing at CL matches. Maybe dad gets his football kick on Thursdays?I hope so. I also notice a lot of kids with their mothers for some reason.

I suspect it’s single mums in a lot of cases. Not members, not in the system but buying one off tickets because the lad is City daft. Obviously I’m generalising and stereotyping here.I've noticed this mum and kids thing at CL matches. Maybe dad gets his football kick on Thursdays?
