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.
Fucking amazing that throughout my time watching city I have never had the pleasure of discussing the finer points of the game with a blue seat
 
The ‘no fans’ one doesn’t bother me at all as it is utter bullshit. I mean, it’s in direct conflict with the ‘plastic club/gloryhunters’ one, for a start.

And arsenal fans’ chant about it echoing round a half empty stadium in their biggest home match of the season bar the NLD was just *chef’s kiss*
 
What does annoy me is the deification of the dippers fans. Everyone knows half of their crowd is a mob of tourists (hence their relatively low number of season tickets, so they can sweat the scandi tourist crowd.

And sure, Klanfield works up a decent atmosphere on CL nights (albeit the reasons would make years of research for someone doing a thesis on cults) but it’s like a morgue for most league matches if they’re not winning.
