Did anyone else notice?

There are a lot of city fans popping out of nowhere. This forum included but not the reason I started the thread. Around where I live there have been people wearing city shirts (mostly balotelli and aguero). The bandwagon is growing (might be all the barca fans jumping ship).

This might not be the right section and it is not a troll attempt but something I noticed and wanted to share.

Until a couple of years ago I geniunely never met a city fan or seen anybody wearing a city top. I now know about 4 and have seen many more in city tops when I book a pitch and see other people wearing them.

Glory hunting is a popular thing i'm afraid.

Although, it is possible a few of them are loyal fans who now have something to actually talk about in terms of success.

Meh. Nothing new here.

The same reason why there are so many Real Madrid fans.

by VanDeezNuts Thu May 10, 2012 7:07 pm

75% of them are Ronaldo fanboys, there's a huge difference :coffee:

.

Anyway why do you care if there are City fans now lol......City's in a good position to be honest , it's easier to like City seeing as United are their biggest rivals.

The Bandwagon is a Fast Moving Land Vehicle.

I noticed that some of the ronaldo fan boys have started cheering for city,but claiming that they only support them in the PL. I also expect many Barcelona fans to become "citizens" once they start to decline.

honestly who gives a crap.... if you dont live in the city, then you too were once those people....
i became a Real fan 1998, do you know why? they were playing in the UCL final and I liked them, I was 6 back then...
so enjoy bashing them, but remember you were once just like them

by Ganso Thu May 10, 2012 7:20 pm

I started supporting Milan in 2008,the year we got kicked out of the cl by arsenal and didn't make it to the top 4. Also,the difference between us guys and them is that we support our team through the thick and thin,unlike these guys who support the winner.

we were all fanboys and bandwagoners at one point, but it's okay for kids or people who just started watching football

by Lex Thu May 10, 2012 8:27 pm

Speak for yourself, i started supporting Arsenal in 99 because i liked their home kit :coffee:

Did anyone else notice? Arsenal-1998-1999_d

by zizzle Thu May 10, 2012 8:32 pm

lol so you're saying you bandwagoned a shirt :vagi:

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu May 10, 2012 8:37 pm

I started supporting Newcastle because i liked the name and the badge and before i even knew how good/bad they were and i was 4 years old.....

..... INB4 someone mentions the Barca following..... when i started following them they was'nt even in the Uefa Cup Laughing

So yh speak for yourself.

by Le Samourai Thu May 10, 2012 8:43 pm

I started following Liverpool because I liked the YNWA chant. Gerrards goal in the FA cup final against West Ham put me on the bandwagon.

by spanky Thu May 10, 2012 8:44 pm

tbh i still havent seen any city fans in real life

by nasir6371 Thu May 10, 2012 8:49 pm

In the UAE... Once they start building that Academy you will.

i thought that at least the locals would root for them since the owner is from UAE

by LeVersacci Thu May 10, 2012 9:31 pm

Well I did once meet a guy with a "Why always me" shirt

but don't think that makes him a city fan hmm

by Rebaño Sagrado Thu May 10, 2012 9:50 pm

by punkfusion1992 Thu May 10, 2012 10:08 pm
