They should never have appointed him in the first place. That was a bonkers decision. They needed someone with experience of fighting the drop. |  |

I get that but most try to use it in a mocking way and it seems a bit naff. |  | |  |

I think they arrogantly thought they were appointing a manager to steer them higher in the league, not to navigate a relegation battle. |  |

City fans have owned this. They have produced and proudly wear CITEH T-shirts. Give it a Google. |  |

It’s a reference back to the 1990s when they were still at MR, we were on a par with them in the second tier and vying for promotion together (remember that?! Our roads split monumentally when we were then bought by rather different owners…). Anyway, back then before the split, their fans kept saying they, “citeh”, were “massive”, so fans of other clubs including ourselves and Leeds fans in sports bars in Leeds took to calling them “the massives” and “citeh”, mockingly. |  |
