No fans, we average over 50,000 a week and slightly less than the dippers yet the myth has been cultivated that we play in front of 10 people and a dog. I’ve been following City since 1986 and never heard this crap being peddled before the takeover. It seemed to come to prominence after our fa cup win and then the 2012 league title. It was basically chucked at us as the rags had to take that banner down and didn’t have anything else to rib us with.
In the age of social media and misinformation this has infiltrated the great unwashed who have had their chips pissed on by City.
