Also, for me, I've known some proper Man City fans through the mid 90's

to going on holiday with 14 on them in League One.

They still think beating Gillingham was the best day of their life.

Yes it will have changed, but I like them more because they've lived in the shadows and been mocked for so long that it's a dark art of their own to expect nothing.

I've met big team fans. My local is rammed with 'Liverpool' fans and they're f**king dicks.

To my mind, I'm not seeing Manchester City having the same national wide interest. So I think they've still got some citizen support and core left.
