We are NOT Man City..

No more out of touch than this! Blue Moon definitely doesn't represent the majority of supporters. Or even a small minority of them.

What has the forum I'm posting on got to do with anything mate ? I used the word 'supporters' to differentiate from followers/casual fans because although I very rarely get to the Etihad myself anymore and would be called a daytripper by many, I've conversed with enough longstanding City supporters to know that 'ManCity' irks fuck out of loads of them ! They would never use it themselves and they dislike hearing it from others.
I've no doubt this feeling wont reverberate similarly with some newer fans and particularly our rapidly growing and most welcome post 2008 'global fanbase' and I accept that. Perhaps I've not judged the temperature of the room correctly and it'll be a non issue ... you might be right the majority may not care a jot ! I personally think it'll rankle/irritate plenty of the core matchgoing support.

You are probably right about this faction, but the reality is that is a very small part of the supporter base and the club will not cater to them above any other group at this point. Such is life.

Opinions. They differ.

Personally, I don't like the new badge at all, and think it looks amateurish, I absolutely hate the new kit, hate the new website, and think this rebranding thing has gone way too far, way too fast.

Edit: And for what it's worth, I agree with IBH when it comes to 'Man City'. Is Juventus' website Juve.it? Barcelona's, Barca.es? Real Madrid's, Real.es?

Aye, why cater the whims of some pesky 'faction' eh ?!

What City fan on this planet calls us Man City?

Those that sing "Oh Man City, the only football team to come from Manchester" ?

if you are, you caught my hook-lined sinker.

Erm. That's not the saying.

Thank's buddy. I love it here. Makes me feel like I can actually be apart of the club. I know I say some dumb stuff at times but I pick up a lot from you guys too. You guys treat me better than you should honestly.

'Apart' - means away from


You need a space between the A and the P.

It's absolutely stunning. I rarely even frequented the other one but I could see myself on this one daily.

Hate to be that guy, but since you're commenting on other posters' grammatical errors... You can multi-quote on here. No need to make three successive posts.
