To be a City fan.

I'd tell them tales from our past.
Things I miss.
Maine Rd chippy and dog shit alley.
Those were the days.

Winning a few trophies we are bound to get an influx of glory hunters. Not as many as the swamp people or the red scouse I grant you.
But what sets apart a blue ? As an oldie I still feel I've escaped Dracula but round the corner is King Kong carrying a chain saw.
We have no more right to history than the Rochdales, Notts County's or Macclesfields of this world.
We tend to laugh through our set backs.
Our empty seats are reserved for true blues ,so if someone comes along wanting to join the ride and take one of those seats, what would you tell them about us that sets us apart.

Nothing sets apart a blue. We're no different from any other fans. I'll make an exception for the obvious 2.

It's that kind of "we're a special club with special fans" shite that is one of the principal reasons everybody hates them.

I'd managed to erase that from my memory banks, thanks.

I was right behind the goal on n that game, still no idea what possessed him to do that.

I spent over 40 years glory hunting. Nah, not a whiff.

it's character building, or at least, it was in my formative years, not so much these days. Although given the amount of flack we as a club get for the slightest of reasons, real or imagined, your now more likely as a young un growing up as a blue to develop a persecution complex rather than a backbone.

I'm convinced dragging my daughter off to main road at the tender age of 6 was a significant help in her emotional development, and I'm happy to report she's recently forgiven me

Empty seats at home?

I'd like to think it's because we don't take ourselves too seriously. When you hear united and liverpool banging on about the glory of their trophies, for us it's just a brilliant excuse to go out on the piss and celebrate. I couldn't give a shit that we haven't won it 20 or 5 times, we'd already won one more premier league trophy than we ever thought we'd see in 2012, and I hope we never lose that.

A souvenir "shop" half the size of most people's front room. I love what we have now but there was something truly special about Maine Road.

It's much better being a City fan than when I was a Chelsea fan. I made the right decision to change in 2008
