Been supporting City since my 5th Birthday in August 1990 so from 90-91 season onwards.
My dad is a big United fan and my mum just went out and bought any blue football shirt she could find. It happened to be a City shirt with the old 'brother' sponsor logo across and that was it I have been a City fan ever since.
First match was at Anfield, Liverpool-City think it ended in a draw.
Favourite player at the time was David White, so within a few weeks I had the number 7 on the back of my shirt as that was his number.
Favourite players down the years would be David White, Paul Walsh, Uwe Rosler, Georgi Kinkladze, Kevin Horlock, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Shaun Goater, Paul Dickov, Richard Dunne, Eyal Berkovic, Elano, Joe Hart, Micah Richards, Vincent Kompany, Nigel De Jong, Pablo Zabaleta, Carlos Tevez, David Silva, Sergio Aguero, Mario Balotelli.
Favourite managers down the years would be Joe Royle, Sven Goran Eriksson and Roberto Mancini.
