I try to post from time to time but I'm not that bright and actually enjoy just following the soap that is mancityfans.net. Some of you guys take this site and especially yourselves far too serious but that is also what makes the site fun to visit.

Cityger is one of the smartest people on this site, which is strange, because you dont want him to be. Carl is one of the funniest, although this whole "I am a cunt therefore I am"-routine is a bit dull. Slim's detoriated into a parody of his sarcastic self and I do not know how many friends NQDP has made up to strengthen his position in various arguments. Probably a thousand by now. BiB is a living proof that intelligence and IQ does not nececarilly match and PBL is just redecilous. Arjan should post more.

This post became more of a "me and mancityfans" post but then again, I have not got near enough as good stories about my citysupport as some of you guys have. I started following City at the same time I started following football, about 2006. I've always liked underdogs with big hearts but I never loved one like i do with City. I managed to get a ticket to the Wembley final and what I liked the most was the time after the celebrations. Seeing all of these old guys (and some women) walking out with tears in their eyes and beaming with bliss was one of the best moments in my life. Sometimes there is... I dont know.... divine justice. These guys spent so many years watching shit and getting snidy remarks by their retarted scum mates but in the end it paid off. That feeling.... I dont know... Im just envious. I caught on too late.

I think it says alot about the big egos on this site that this thread is mostly filled with old posters with thousands of posts under their belt.

Utterly brilliant atmosphere, made me so proud to be blue, but my god it was hot on that second tier, anyway here to many more away days!!!

Is it really difficult (busy) after the game to catch public transport back to the centre? And finally and most importantly where is the best boozer near the ground I can get into for a beer where they are happy having kids in?

Probably too far for a 5 year old to walk back from the game- you'll be leaving the ground around 10pm, and it could be pretty cold.

I've caught buses back from night games to the centre without any hassle/waiting before, but that was 3-4 years ago, last time. Don't know whether things have changed since what with redevelopment, etc.

Pubs- not too sure. Most on here go to the Townley, but I don't know what their child policy is like. If they're not happy, it's probably best having a few jars in the centre beforehand, near Piccadilly.

I've had drinks with both Eoin and Tommy in the Townley, so they don't seem to fuzzed about kids drinking. But serving 5 year olds might be pushing it ...

Regarding buses, 216 and 217 go from Piccadilly Gardens (City centre) to Eastlands. There are match day buses going back to Piccadilly after the game. They always seem to be packed, though, which is why I've always opted for walking or taking a cab.
