I'm not a big fan of staying in the same old boozer so have watched derbies over the years in Cheadle,Didsbury,Levenshulme,Whalley Range,Openshaw,City Centre,Longsight,Withington,Heaton Mersey,Fallowfield,Moss Side,Heaton Chapel,Ladybarn. I would say every boozer had an even mix in, with the exception of Heaton Mersey which was 75/25 City. Usually half an hour after the final whistle they're packed with City even on the few occasions we've lost. I love laughing at the Rags who a couple of hours previously were mouthing off, trying to disappear quietly.
If I was superstitious I should really stick to pubs for the derby as I've probably been to about 10 or so since the 70s and don't think I've ever seen us win!
