Seeing the Everton fan clips recently have made me wonder what the most toxic period at City was. I’m only old enough to remember the bad Pearce days.
First one that sprang to mind for me. Players throwing their shirts into the crowd at the end of the game only to see them thrown back at them. A proper "Is this it? Is this all we're capable of?" feeling descended over the fanbase that day and it was pretty nasty watching it on TV. Never seen a City end look so bitter but admittedly I missed the 80s.I think the Blackburn quarter final in 2007 probably marked the high/low point for toxicity, not least because things started turning round the season after.
With a giant sprinkling of thatcher era policing mixed in with itThe Swales out era.
100% this regarding fans against the Chairman/Board/Club.The Swales out era.
