There, it's believable now.


That's not very gentle Slim.

Gary Neville is apparently growing a moustache for Movember. All around collapse in general mirth.

a) It was a joke and as some of you know, that was me being gentle.

b) While I don't get to games from the other side of the world, I am up at 2:30am in the morning to see the Napoli game which starts at 3:45am and have done this for every single game for the last six years including getting up to hear the radio5 commentary because no broadcast existed(to my knowledge, shawzy came through late with a stream). When you moan about lunchtime kickoffs, I see a decent night's sleep, and a late sunday game might be a slight inconvenience for you, but for me it ruins two days. That's not even getting into the midweek matches. As City fans we are loyal beasts of burden at the best of times, but in that echelon, I am fucking king and don't you forget it.

don't doubt your commitment, can't forgive tautology
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Either I don't understand what tautology means, or you don't, or I don't see it, or it isn't there but you think it is.

Can't I just cut and paste your "I shat myself" post? Seems as worthy as anything posted in the last 10K of mine.

Hi, my names Beefy and I'm a ManCityFans-a-holic! Please take it easy with me as I'm going through a delicate phase at the moment, I keep thinking we are Top of the League and clear by 4 points. I'm on med's so please excuse my delusion.

And Slim, where's that 20K post, you lazy git!

Aloha, my name is James, Man City fan for 14 years, live in South Wales but my old man is a Manc. Nice to see us playing our arses off these last 2 years, here's to hoping for more success for the moons :)

As you can imagine, living in Swansea there isnt many Man C fans so I joined to have a chat and share some opinions :)

Glad to see you followed your dad. My kids had to, or I'd have thrown them out!

Lets see 14 years? You must have joined at what I regard as our darkest hours ever. Fair play indeed!

I always thought the same growing up in Llanelli, but turns out there's a lot more than you think down that way.

I remember my first encounter with other City fans in town- I bumped into a group of about 6-8 people all decked out in that maroon Umbro bomber jacket we had when Rosler was playing for us. Saw them around the town centre two or three times after that, in similar getup, but always from the current season. Apart from their group ambles through the town centre, I never saw them elsewhere.
