[Albion] Citeh fans

[schmunk]

I wonder if they realise that they are the only ones (as far as I know) who have accused us of being a dirty team? Must just be sour grapes, shirley?

Maybe, maybe not...

(albeit we were 18th for yellow cards in 2020/21 and 16th in 2019/20...)

 

[Monkey Man]

Quite possibly there was some.

My comments only relate to the arrogant twatty comments that a number of city fans wanted to make in the direction of my son.

Never pleasant. I hope he wasn't too traumatised. I think that's what was so stupid about the Brighton antics I saw – lots of grown men throwing abuse at City fans (including families) who were minding their own business and just trying to quietly leave the ground.

I don't go to many away games so don't have much recent experience of our travelling support's behaviour. I think we probably attracted a fair number of "irregular" fans that day.

Its the consequence of having a slow team. Veltman, Duffy, Dunk, Lallana and Gross wont win a sprint against any attacking player in the Premier League so if someone is going past them, they have to kill.

 

[Mackenzie]

I’m indifferent to Manchester City fans.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

From Kinkys left foot: "We owe these one for last year. Some of their backroom staff were ***** after the game at theirs where they kicked us off the park as well. I want ****ing payback on the pitch"

Really !! which is worse...

Even if they win on Saturday our disappointment will be nothing like they felt at the Amex last season so I think we'll have credit in the bank of gloat for quite some time yet.

 

[maltaseagull]

A lot of them seem to think we're decent

And a fair few believe we are dirty f**kers and kicked them off the park!

I don't recall that or am I as biased as some of their fans?

-------------Ederson
Walker---Dias---Laporte---Cancelo
---------------Rodri
------De Bruyne---Bernardo
Jesus---------Foden--------Grealish

......
Sterling, Gundogan, Zinchenko, Stones


..

shit

 

[Is it PotG?]

Stains almost beat them at their own pit.

Never know.

 

[Nitram]

Much as I hate to judge but I’ve yet to meet a City fan who when talking about their team does not come across as an arrogant entitled bore.

 

[Taybha]

City have some truly great players, we have a team of players quite capable of beating them, how they go about that will be dirty at times, and frankly to win this we will try everything in the book to accomplish that.

And I couldn't give a toss how upset that makes a manc see us.

Crazy to think that since we moved to the Amex they have spent more on right backs than we have spent on our best starting 11, stadium, and training facility combined.

Maicon, £4m
Kyle Walker, £53m
Benjamin Mendy, £52m
Danilo £27m
Joao Cancelo £58.5m
Pedro Porro £10.8m
Issa kabore £4m
Jesus Navas £18m

A look back at the Sky Blue tinted Manchester Evening News report from that last match tells you why so many have a dim view. Yes the Jahanbakhsh tackle was a bad one, and Lallana was a bit naughty, but that's football.

Speaking as a massive Man United and Liverpool fan, who merely watched the Albion through 4 divisions and back, from one wet end of the country to the other and at 4 home grounds just for the convenience. I think we have got the wrong end of the stick, by dirty they don't mean physical, that mean we are dirty for having the gall to actually beat them. They genuinely do it so infrequently (although not in several away games after us) that they just assume we must have cheated. Personally I hate how corrupt money buys teams, but I really appreciated the fact they didn't just spunk all that money like so many others. Man City created a piece of football perfection that made all that expense worth it. Then they acted like numtees because we beat them and backed the super League, so my respect is now on a par with clubs that spend Russian pensioners money, Thai dictator profits, Saudi blood drenched oil loot and US hedge fund gold. Can't see us winning but it would make me very happy.

 

[Brok]

Bit pissed.

 

[southstandandy]

They are just a little club who are living off dirty money. Most of their so called fans never went before the money poored in. Self entitled wan*ers the lot of them.

 

[lawros left foot]

I remember the quite horrific tackle that Ali J committed on poor Gundogan.

So bad that he wasn’t even substituted.

How he was able to start in City’s biggest ever game 11 days later, with only half a leg, I’ll never know.

After we had kicked them off the park, I’m amazed that City had no new injuries going into the European Cup final.

 

[Gazwag]

Living near Brighton and Having encountered a lot of their ‘fans’ (most have Liverpool or United as their first team). Can’t ****ing stand them hope we smash them

This one is funny coming from a team who cant sell many tickets to home games

So it finished 0-0, or have I misread the match report?
