Why the hell does everyone hate us !?

They're Jelly of you.

Most don't. I got chatting to some Leeds fans at the cricket earlier this summer and they all wanted us to do well. It just depends who you talk to.

There are hundreds of thousands, nay, millions out there who cannot stand The Scum, The Rags as we call 'em, and are genuinely pleased that their days strutting about are numbered.

I was at the final, I don't really bother that much about Spurs, and here was a lad, aged 22, not getting why I don't hate Spurs.

It's a strange world, and I don't pretend to understand it's workings, but I am genuinely at a loss to understand our supposed hatred of Spurs.

I found someone on facebook, He Supports Manchester City and Spurs.

i spoke to a west brom fan,who supported the rags as his 2nd team.

i don.t think they do

I'm down in the Midlands now and again and everytime I say to someone I'm a City fan you would think I had just sh!t on their shoe. Then they change the subject.

It's just jealousy pure and simple. Some opposition lads can have banter about it and some are losing serious sleep over it.

Love it.

so question- why do people hate city? Bluemoon answer- 'because we're so brilliant and they're jealous' the only reason I get annoyed by City is the exact same reasons that alot of you throw at spurs. Undue arrogance, the feeling you've a right to be in the top 4, before the games with us last year you all went on about how you hated us and wanted to teach us a lesson and how we're dicks etc etc. What all because of some goal in 1981? City are a great club but the arrogance of some of your fans since the influx of money have let you down. The assumption that all the top starts in the world wanna come and play for you, that you'll def win the league soon, maybe this year. Etc etc, people resent this kinda talk cause it takes most clubs years to build up this kinda status.

With all due respect that's a load of bollocks.
The City dislike of Spurs isn't just down to '81-you lot have had what I call "capital arrogance" for as long as I can remember...it's as much a North/South lifestyle/attitude thing as it is about football.
You pretty much epitomise the London-centric "Norvern mankeys" Essex boy attitude...when I think of Spurs,I always picture a load of late 30's billy big balls second hand car dealers turning up at CoMs in pink Pringle jumpers, waving their money about and telling us about how cheap the beer is "ap norf."

And you've also got to remember what we've had to deal with over the last 30+ years...you lot can only dream of the shit we've taken from every man and his dog.Everyones favourite lovable loser,everyone's whipping boy.Cup for cock ups and all that.

Imagine spurs playing Gillingham in the third division play off final,when Arsenal had just won the treble?

Of course you can't.
Your idea of having a "hard time" is watching Christian Gross and Jason Cundy.

You have absolutely NO idea......Arsenal are a big club,but they are nothing to have to live as rivals with compared to the rags-espeacilly how far away we were away from them.

But for all the bullshit and ridicule we'eve faced-it's made us tough.No wonder that we're enjoying the ride-what you see as "arrogance" we see as being able to put our heads above the parapet and tell everyone "we're in with a shout" without having them shot off.

For the first time I can remember,we finally have a team to match the fans.

If others don't like "ickkle City" calling the shots-fuck 'em.

We've earned it.

Good post and well put...........other fans have no idea what we had to put up with in the last 20 years especially with the scum winning everything and us slipping down the leagues...............we are more used to fans feeling sorry for us than hating us! And we not use to it..........

And i think you will find a whole lot of fans from the lower leagues want City to do well.So dont get into the mindsight that every fan in England are against when in fact its complete bollocks

Great post, the thing I find with Spurs fans is the fact that they're pretty likeable when there's just one or two of them. As soon as they get in a crowd bigger than 5 though they become completely different, it's very strange.
