We are NOT Man City..

[PrestwichPeteMcfc]

Was it really necessary to drop the 'Football Club' from the stadium's main enterence?

I'm puzzled by the fact that 'man city' is easier and quicker to search for than 'MCFC'

Because a casual fan is more likely to search Man City, than MCFC.

can you honestly say that you have never stood on the terraces and sung a song out loud with the words "man city" in it?

Wembley, Wembley!!!

It's very easy to have search terms that aren't a part of your URL or main header, so not sure if that is a reason for the rebranding at all. In fact, even when we still were a football club 'man city' as a search term would return the OS.

Given that most people in the media and other fans refer to us as Man City, it makes complete sense to have mancity.com as our domain name. It's purely a website based decision, not a re-brand.

It's a domain name, not a rebrand. The header still says "Manchester City". Regardless, mancity.com is much more reflective of who we are than 4 letters.

Well it's not just the domain name, but point taken. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but mancity.com is too close to manutd.com, FC has gone. Next stop, compulsory ticket purchases! ;)

We are just 'City'. So fuck off Leicester, Hull, Bristol, Birmingham, Swansea, Cardiff, St. Asaph, Bangor, et al. Thread ends here!

I see what you're saying, I feel that FC needs to be there as that's what we are - despite branching out into Tyres, Betting and Noodle soup partnerships, we're first and foremost a Football Club. My personal opinion is that it should be stated.

Anyway, like you say...forward with Pep. Fucking hell Pep is our boss.

Simples. It's the biggest single signing at this club since the takeover. And therefore, arguably, in the history of the club.
