I had a rag **** say to me " there's shit on your shirt"Got mobbed by a load of rags whilst doing the school run in Trafford.
"Don't like your shirt" "bit of dirt on your top" etc..
Told them it was champion. Soon shut them all up.
Fair play to the red **** for sticking to his word. Nothing worse than a gobshite who won't back it upAlways wore my tops throughout school when growing up. P.E non uniform days etc. Got absolutely terrorised for it. Only city fan in my year at high school. 03 till 07. So I've got thick skin from it. I even wore it for p.e just after the Middlesbrough 8-1 drumming. Best memory though was my form tutor for 5 years was a massive red. Always gave me stick in front of class. Always dreaded Monday mornings especially if we'd had a tanking at weekend. One that always sticks out though was the the first week back after the summer holidays. It was leading upto the City v United 07/08. For some reason i was confident we were going to stick one on them. I took my form tutor up on a bet, whoever lost they would have to wear the other teams top for the first hour of the day. His suggestion and after years of abuse I thought fuck it you red bastard. Massive regret straight after though! Well that Brazilian beauty Geovanni only went and stuck one in didn't he! I could only watch from the south stand and prey that city wouldn't fuck this up for me. The rest is history and yes he kept his side of the deal. I walked in with my top purposely arriving late so I was the last one in and threw it at him. The pain in his face as he put it on and sat for an hour was priceless. Geovanni was my god haha
It’s mostly the red tops who feel the need to do this.Footy tops on kids are great, footy tops on non match going adults, a bit naff in my mind.

I’m a 23 y/o female fan who solo attends matches and typically get some comments when I wear my top out in public, but I got so much sexually charged verbal abuse walking around on Wednesday evening from Inter milan fans and presumably United fans. It was bad enough that I ended up going into a pub bathroom and changing out of my top before walking to the stadium and putting it back on once I got inside.Good morning
I was reading the thread regarding the city charges and some fans were speaking about being targets for hate/abuse while out and about wearing there Man City tops.
It got me thinking, how many of you have had these sort of issues?
Personally I avoid wearing mine when I’m not attending the game mainly due to being an introvert and I find wearing a football jersey a topic for conversation, whether it’s banter or someone just randomly shouting ‘come on city’.
I can’t be bothered, I like to be left alone.
I have only had one issue of a gang of lads shouting abuse at me when attending a game, it wasn’t banter and could have turned quite nasty, but that’s the only issue I have had.
Just interested in your thoughts regarding this
Yes it was I stayed there when we played united in first fa cup final loads of Red shirts around on the day not a single one the day after.Was at Centre Parks Penrith and went to watch Liverpool v Burnley on the giant screen in the sports hall, March 2019 I think it was. Place seemed full of Liverpool shirts. Burnley scored and more than half the place cheered, doubt everyone was a Claret so suspect they were Mancs, Evertonians and plastic rags. Regrettably dippers went on to win and the shirt wearers were their usual obnoxious selves.
