[rosbif cuisson 'bleu']

[Chinners]

1979 and you've never heard us being reffered to as the Citizens, I'm genuinly gobsmacked tbh ... still no mither

[Dameerto]

One thing's for sure, you've brought it back into fashion now! (On here anyway)

[Avalon]

I prefer Moneybags, cause we're LOADED

[Patrick]

I like the fact that we are now City Fans, collectively we are the blues, but there are loads of different blues. Everyone understands who City Fans are now

Eastlands Fc of The Etihad has a nice ring to it.

not french,colour unimportant! Uninformed maybe......i[highlight]thought AlouineDVToure was the real one too[/highlight], but why the fuck would i go wikipedia to get info?
btw 1st game Maine road City v Juventus 1979 ..... get some balanced responses on here don't you? i shouldn't have phrased it like that but i honestly had NEVER heard it before....being expat for a fair while this is the 1st contact i've had with city fans for a long time,
i'll admit to being a supporter and not a FANATIC.....

Quality.

I wish he posted on here, but I bet he has anything but fond memories from his time at the club. No appearances, deep vein thrombosis from a coach trip and obscurity. What a legacy.

Never seen this before. Ace!

I noticed Darren (english pundit) on Canal+(France) starting to call city fans 'citizens' about 2 years ago and thought it was just french telly that had made it up, but it seems to be catching on. What the fuck is that all about? I never knew anyone who called themselves a 'citizen' since i was a kid....( a long while now); Don't like it, it makes us sound like 'johhny come lately glory hunters', like you know who...

In an attempt to not sound like a 'Johnny come lately glory hunter' you have proven you are a 'Johnny come lately glory hunter' by not knowing a nickname that has gone back literally generations... Well done.

Ok this leads me to a question then, when is the date that is considered the glory hunter cutoff??

Well you joined this site during Stuart Pearce's last season in charge, if you started supporting us then I wouldn't worry about being a glory hunter, I would worry that there is something seriously wrong with you and that you hate yourself a LOT.

Guess I am safe seeing that I went to my first match in 1999. Thanks for that clarification (as if I didn't think some clown would use that date). ;)

Slim it is worse, we were just 5 months past Wembley/Gillingham when I was hooked and in the Championship at the time. So any evidence that I am thick lies clearly within that.

So what you are saying is you started supporting right after we got promoted.....hmmm.

Small glories perhaps, but I call gloryhunter...just a sad one.

btw 1st game Maine road City v Juventus 1979 ..... get some balanced responses on here don't you? i shouldn't have phrased it like that but i honestly had NEVER heard it before....being expat for a fair while this is the 1st contact i've had with city fans for a long time,
i'll admit to being a supporter and not a FANATIC.....

Quality.

I wish he posted on here, but I bet he has anything but fond memories from his time at the club. No appearances, deep vein thrombosis from a coach trip and obscurity. What a legacy.
