This may suprise you but the typical city nature of our club has been around almost since we were founded. There are masses of incidents surrounding our club that fit neatly into the quirky nature of our club. Nobody should consider that Typical city has only existed since aroung 1976. It is not a modern thing.
I repeat once again that typical City is fine and no matter what those typical city incidents were in the past, they never repeat NEVER stopped us going onwards and upwards and being ultimately successful. Despite going bump as Ardwick (typical City) we still went on to win major honours a few years later. Despite having all our staff banned after the FA Cup win in 1904 (typical City) we still rebuilt and became massively successful in the 30s....and so fuclin many more incidents that failed to stop us moving on to glory. Looking at it rationally, Typical City has almost become a byeword for our successes.
Typical City was never nor is not now a prerequiste for failure.
Our failures from the 1980s onwards were the result of poor stewardship of the club.Fuck all to do with daft amusing incidents. If it hadn't have been for that poor stewardship, those events would not have hindered us significantly.
I would hate to see us win a trophy this season and find that City fans had succeeded in moaning and whingeing their way to glory.
THERE IS NO BIG BAD BUS WAITING ROUND THE CORNER TO RUN US ALL OVER. The chances are that if that bus did exist at all, it would be there to speed up the journey to the top.
(How'm I doing Piccs...yer twat...:-)...(but funny though).

Having been a part of the last 30 odd years of failure, I have been a part of that gut wrenching disappointment too and fully understand where it comes from. What I don't understand is; Why under the present circumstances, are City fans projecting a poor past into the future.
There were reasons for those failures, reasons that now no longer exist.
There is no wicked witch casting spells of disaster on us...
With all that is going on now around the club, the future can only ever be bright. If not this season, then next. The future is ours for the taking. It won't be easy and we'll have to compete for it but we have to be optimistic.....don't we????
