We are now global. Official. We can say we have arrived now that they are selling MCFC towels, pump bags, trainer bags and shit in Asda!<br /><br />-- Mon Sep 05, 2011 2:16 pm --<br /><br />Was in Thailand a few years back, went on an excursion to some jungle village in the middle of nowhere to see how the locals make timber buddha's and other crafts as a way of life ( bit geeky i know but was keeping the missus happy!). There was this old fella ( circa 80 ) sat on a log carving away at what was gonna be a effegy of an elephant and he was wearing a city shirt. The old purple and white away with Brother on i think. I asked the translator to ask him about where he got the shirt from, apparantly was given it by a fan a couple of years earlier in Bangkok and has followed us ever since. Was funny hearing him say 'feed the goat' when he realised i was a blue. Had to have a photo done with him sat on the log.

Usually, you see united, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool shirts, but I have never seen City shirts!

Every time i am on holiday i can guarantee i end up having a few beers with fellow blues, wherever that may be. My missus thinks its wierd that i can sit and chat and have drinks with strangers, ive not even tried to explain, the stupid splitarse.

Even Jeremy Clarkson ackowledges our meteroic rise. In his Car column for the Sunday times he was struggling to decide which was better ..a 5 Series BMW or an Audi A6...he likened it to comparing Manchester City with Manchester United!!

Walking through Caesars Palace in Vegas Aug 1990, lad walking one way with his City top on me the other stopped had a quick chat then carried on, I never pass up the opportunity. Walking across Hudson Bridge in NY wondering where the hell I could watch the City vs Blackburn game the following day, when two blokes with their wives coming the opposite way with City hats on had a quick chat and found the pub I needed.
I usually do say something but i'm a bit skeptical now because the last time i saw a guy with city shorts on i said, "nice shorts mate" i realised what i said and was waiting for a funny look or a witty reply, he just came back with, "yeah, shit was on sale" turns out he was a rag. Class A nob he was as well. I just nod and chat to the fans wearing the shirts now.

Was on my phone at Woking station in Surrey about an hour ago. Spotted a fella wearing an fa cup city cap. I have the city crest on my iPhone so I showed it to him as I was talking on the phone. As I walked away I could hear him laughing like mad. Wonder if he posts on here?
