We are NOT Man City..

Where are they calling us man city?

From what I can see the only thing that is man city is the domain name which is simply just an abbreviation and if that's it you need to all get a grip!
 
Some soft and precious bastards here on KarenMoon, sorry I mean Bluemoon. I'm more interested in what happens on the pitch than what we get called
 
It is a bit strange to choose that tag but honesty 11 pages of moaning already?
I have no problems moaning about the football side considering the investment and rise we have had over the past years, but come on..

Some absolute wimps support this club it seems nowadays
Get a grip

Why is everybody bitching about the website? It's slick, easy to navigate, and it runs fast as well. I thought the last one was total trash.

First of all they have't changed the name. Look at the badge and look at the kits. Man City just rolls off the tongue and everyone I know refers to us as that. Yes, I know it's your club and I'm here taking a different point of view than you but it's also my club as well. It's a modern digital social world we live in. Man City is an easy and direct way to unify web searches, twitter handles, web sites, etc.

Everybody knows we are Manchester City Football Club. Simple as that. I

I can certainly see the reasoning from a web/search engine perspective. I'd do the same. The club hasn't re-branded itself, it's simply shortened the name for convenience, just like we do with many things. I don't see how anyone finds the name 'Man City' in the slightest bit disrespectful anyhow. The disdain of rival supporters only really comes across when they purposely type it as 'Citeh'.

Just had a play around on the new site - its actually very good - takes a bit of getting used to but I think we will grow to like it. Not too bothered about the Man City thing - I call us Manchester City - thats all that matters. Still hate that kit but speculation will start on next years by New Year!

I really couldn't believe how fast it was considering how much traffic was hammering it. People are just uncomfortable with it because it's based for multi-platforms and doesn't have the classic desktop old school layout.

The Twitter handle @ mancity @ mcfc . You can see why they would change it.
 
Citeh does not bother me either as that is about how us mancs say it.

We're man City we fight till the end!

Maybe that's a reason the atmosphere is shit because we have too many proud fans who will not sing Citeh or man City

If we had to rebrand the name which has been acceptable for quite a few years then surely the obvious would have been a plain and simple City.

The single word 'City' is far too generic for website/search engine optimisation.
 
On the badge it's Manchester City. We are still Manchester City. The only thing that's changed is the Twitter handle and domain name.

Don't know about anyone else but I would never call us MCFC either, despite the website being mcfc.co.uk. It's just an abbreviation. Nobody refers to us in conversation as MCFC. At least not that I know of.

Man City is just a shortening of the name, because who wants to type manchestercity.com every time? Jesus it's not as if we've changed our name officially to Man City!
