Well said mate. You tell them Rag fuckers who the better supporter is! Of course, you will always be the better supporter in your eyes, and so you should be. Its nice to know you've reached that point of acceptance where you don't care less, and turn up just to watch them play, not thinking about what happens either side of the 90 minutes. We could finish fourth, but City stretch the heart strings while doing it. As the commentator during the celebrations of the '99' Division 2 Play-off final said: 'Manchester City are the genuine soap opera club'. This line sums us up perfectly. We're up, down and around like a rollercoaster, but as long as you strap yourself in, you can take the shit that comes with being a City fan. We may be the lucky generation who will be telling their children and grand-children about how Tevez scored and over-head kick to win us the 2013 Champions League Final, or that Weiss scored the winning penalty in a new competition made by the FA, or something. Or talk of how Ferguson and the Rags fell side by side, alone on the corrupt battlefield that is football.
Its a beautiful game, and City are the beautiful (yet sickly) club, who will always take 1 step forward, and then take 3 steps back. One manager after the next, one trophiless season after another. But we still stand shouting ourselves hoarse. Because we love it so.
