us older fans used to sing this in jest more than anything growing up,due to the nature of our different positions in the league etc especially from the 80’s onwards until recently. I know we’ve overtaken them on the football field in terms of ability, but can you see us being the bigger club globally in years to come. I know our owners have this vision but can you as a supporter see this happening one day. Here’s hoping.
We would have to dominate the PL for a number of years, win or be in the CL final year on year, and then, maybe, the young kids who are independently just getting into football might choose City and then the tentacles might spread globally. But there again we might need a little bit of sympathetic attachment to an historical event before we get anywhere near.
I gave a pile of City stuff to a grandson of a friend of ours in Yawkshire. He was delighted, and then his Dad bought him a season ticket to Huddersfield!

We had more than that at York away if I recall correctly...!I’m not sure we’ll ever have 650 million fans.

I think the only way we will ever be bigger than the Raggies is the Shiekh starts selling dodgy meat to school kids and then a few years later his son starts peeping under the bog doors in the womens toilets. To me that is how you judge 'bigger'.

So 650,000,001 then. I think that number of City fans got married the day we played Carlisle!

It's a hard one.
Look around other sports and you'll see it can go either way. Boston Celtics are the most successful team in NBA history and would probably be one of the most recognisable US sports team globally (basketball is the world's second sport behind football), yet they've only won one NBA title since 1986. Their stature hasn't diminshed a jot in that time though.
