Imagine supporting Manchester City 19:17 - Apr 25 with 988 viewsandyblue231

Imagine looking at that club, the ownership, the cheating, the lying, the lawsuits and the billions spent and that being your team. I can’t think of anything worse. I’d rather be in the conference.

Yeah I’m sure their fans are gutted at the multiple trophies they’ve won over the last 10 or so years.

Really? I have the feeling, if it was us, we'd bend our conscience to keep supporting. Especially with their success.

Yes I’ve often wondered how much I could tolerate. It’s hard to walk away from your team.

I guess you and plenty of others would yearn for the days when 15th in the Championship was the prize second only to watching Skuse, Hyam and rooted to the ground stumbling about with the magic of Conor Sammon, dear old Frank Nouble terrorising the opposition.

Trophies year after year, Wembley - who needs that when you can have the excitement of Polish Pete in prospect and watching the lads trot out at Morecambe..

I’d be very surprised if many original City fans would want a return to the days when they competed with the likes of us and a lot worse.

Yes I’d much prefer that. Than sell out to human rights abusers for some

I have absolutely no issues with their players, non of what goes on behind the scenes is anything to do with them, and a lot of them weren't even there when the " events " happened. The problem with any due punishments, is that, if meeted out, punishes the completely innocent ( players, fans ) along with those that have brought disgrace upon them. I dare say we'll all find out in due course. Until then I shall continue to enjoy City's brand of football as I believe they play the game the way it should be played.

It’s a very narrow and biased narrative. The investment goes beyond the club and players and into the local community and I know most local fans are delighted with seeing both the club and the area regenerated.

I’d be delighted if Gamechanger achieves a fraction in Ipswich of what the city investors have done in East Manchester.

The club was owned by a ticket seller/reseller merchant some would call a tout. He invested sweet zilch into the club in 13 years after his quick flip gamble failed beyond the barest minimum to stave off collapse that was coming anyway. He sold it for Omari Hutchinson and a spare leg money (it’s now worth £350m allegedly).

The peak of his moral high ground was to lie to season ticket holders once a year and appoint flunkeys that didn’t know the difference between a football club and a fried egg.

You’d prefer that joy with cr@p football, lower level players, a 0-10 formation v Rotherham, a dirty, run down ground and the inevitable oblivion to what City have done and the fun their supporters have had?

Well, each to their own.

Well you might feel great about the moral high ground of that but to me it looks like a moral molehill.

Maybe the world of top level of football is not for you. Plenty including my late brother in law preferred the non leagues and maybe that’s something for you to consider.

Modern football is what it is. We all have the choice to take it or leave it.

Moat certainly would. Principles are pretty rare and people who stick to them even rarer. Although it’s a moot point for me as I don’t have a ST to give up.

The bluemancs fans really are the most arrogant of all the numerous ones from other clubs that I've met though.

Even back in the 90s when they were still at Maine Rd & competing with us in the second tier for promotion to the top, they were calling themselves the 'massives'. Only difference between them & us was they got themselves an oily nation of an owner, and we got ME.

I'd still rather be us. And you don't get the joy of the highs without experiencing the lows.

Gotta say that was an absolutely beautiful, stunning screamer of a goal for their second though.

The year Utd won the treble, City won the (3 rd division) playoffs and Utd fans took the piss!
20 years later City won their own treble ( beating Utd in the fa cup final) Imagine being a city fan eh?
