A glaring massive black hole of a chasm holy grail of a trophy missing in that list for a player who captained £2 billion worth of players since 2008.

Pep basically saying if you don’t like what I said then I’ll leave. Quality response to be fair.

What he actually said was basically a rallying call. Sky Sports and the rest of the unwashed red loving hordes have spun it quite nicely. So instead of talking about the actual game which was brilliant or talking about the rags pathetic loss to Young Boys. Everyone is talking about empty seats. Job done from the Utd pr perspective.

Yes. I don’t mean why does he have a statue, I mean why does he have a dreadful statue that looks nothing like him?

I've given enough stick to City and I dislike the new version of the club with their money and plenty of the ways their fans act but, and I say this with all the respect you deserve, you do not have a clue. They got over 30k in the third tier, a lot of those are the same ones that go now. A lot can't go because of the price of the ticket and working class fans should not be called out for preferring to make sure they can afford to live day to day rather than go to the football - especially when they'll be gutted enough to not be able to afford it.
I'm lucky enough I can afford to go now but, even when football was cheaper, our family would struggle to go to a game or two a season. City do not need to 'build a fanbase' because they've already got an incredibly loyal local one and for a fan of one of the Liverpool clubs (which one, well, that's not for me to say) built on working class foundations it's a snide and nonsense little dig to try and suggest that getting 30k more fans from outside the locality makes them more of a genuine or big club. If Everton move to Bramley Moore and there are 20k extra seats, it won't make the club mean anything less, and it won't make those who are at the ground care any less and to imply it makes the club or fans lesser is ridiculous.

I think you'll find very few Everton fans who would say what you say, or like it.

Spot on this - the days of hammering fans over attendances or lack of should be consigned to the past. If you’re a city fan you invariably go deep into every competition. It’s simply far too expensive to expect to be able to afford to go to every game on a reasonable wage.

Guardiola like many in football exist in a bubble where money just isn’t a consideration and they could do with getting in the real world

And they want to expand to 62000 lol, boost turnover when the Sheikh buys the unsold tickets. lol

Absolute joke fanbase though, the litteny of excuses on Twitter they have come up with, such a hollow plastic fake facade of a club, everything about them feels and looks like the football club equivalent of paste jewelry, no matter how much shine and glitter the Petro dollar owners sprinkle on them, they will always be the small scruffy mef club with little respect that won the Petro dollar lottery.

The whole club screams of wanting acceptance, respect and gratitude,and they get none, they crave lavish praise and being known as a big club and despite two billion spent, they cannot attract a fanbase and they are mocked for being cheats, plastic and buying success.

Their owners are trying to build a fanbase but they are failing, Manchester is about 90% of United fans, seems they also cannot attract fans from the catchment area or beyond.

I am sick of these posts, just bloody well get to the point and tell us whether you like Man City or not. All this sitting on the fence is annoying the crap out of me.
 

Saw this on Soccer/Reddit. lol

The City fan thing is a pretty straightforward issue of them not having as many fans as some of the more established clubs in this country. Strong local base but not much beyond. The United factor is also significant as they have loads more even in the NW.

Had Abu Dhabi bought, for instance, Newcastle or Villa they’re likely to have filled the stadium as I think they have bigger fan bases.
