I’m only 7 and went to my first game 24/5/09 it was brill this is me and my big brother waiting to go

I remember my dad parking the car and walking towards the floodlights, my dad putting me in the kids queue for the Platt Lane end, the queue was much shorter than the dads, standing and waiting on the other side of the turnstyles as dad had instructed, waiting as hundreds of men with magnum style moustaches passed me, everyone looking like my dad, finally he came through and held my hand again, 10p for a programme, walkg through the tunnel in the corner and entering gods own arena for the first time, the Kippax packed, the small of piped tobacco, coloured wooden benches and dads vegatable soup at half time, full time and 6-0 to my new blue heroes, a life long love affair had begun, thank you Dad

My first game was back in the days when Steve Redmond wore the Captains armband. We were led by Mel Machin at the time, who was replaced by Howard Kendall a couple of months later. October 1989. 15 years of age. We lost 0-2 with Gordon Cowan and a young David Platt pulling the strings for the opposition.

I can’t remember my first game, is it because it was so unmemorable or is it that I am now old. Coming along with my father, something must have happened as here I am over 50 years later. Through the lows of the early 60s, the highs of the late 60s and early 70s, the so so 80s and on to the millenium. Many teams, many players, but one club, mine, yours, OURS.

my first game was rodney marsh’s debut v chelsea with tommy booth scoring the only goal.i remember climbing the old steps up to the back of the old kippax and reaching the top to be blown away by the greeness of the pitch and the whiteness of the goalposts – let battle begin! like history repeating itself with marsh in the team we stuffed everyone at home 3-0 or 4-0 at home and lost by the same scores away until he left and we were a team again – remind you of anyone!

At 16 days old my daddy took me in the executive box for our game against Fulham. We lost 2-3 but daddy spent a fortune in the city store!!!!!!!! and now I’ve been bitten by the bug and I love City and can’t wait to have my own season ticket with my big brother Scott and daddy.

Happy Birthday Nevaeh, with lots of love from mummy, daddy, Adam, Scott and Bradley xxx

City v Oldham in Division 1, sitting in the Kippax. Will never forget Rosler running around the pitch like we had won the league when he scored.

From that moment, I knew my blood was blue!

My school friend’s Dad had tried to get us into The Swamp for his son’s birthday but they were full so we ended up in the Main Stand as City & Wolves fought out a muddy 0-0 draw. I dimly remember a goal-bound shot stopping dead in the mud on the goal line only for Wolves to clear before any blue shirt could slide it into the net. I was 10 at the time & already a Blue.

My first city game was 26th august 2006 versing arsenal were we won 1-0, I was 13 years old,I came with my uncle dale who has had a city season ticket at main road too.I was so excited about this game, i had been waiting for it for weeks,i had only ever whatched city play on the t.v, and never realy new what the atmosphere was like, i still remember getting into my uncles car on that day and my uncle asking was i excited, i was so over excited i couldnt belive it, i was acctually going to see my heroes live for the first time, i was all ready with my home top and city tracksuit on with my drink and sweets , before the match we went into the main road pub opposite and every were was fans,we went in there for a drink because we got there early. i just couldnt wait to go in, we was walking towards the entrance and all i could hear was the chants from the fans, the stadium was so big i could hardly belive my eyes it was huge.it didnt feel real it was so amazing.As soon as i sat in my seat it was time to welcome the players, i had been to see moonchester and had my photo taken with him, then a massive cheer from the croud came as the players entered the pitch. i loved the way the song blue moon came on at the handshake because i love that song i wish they played it now before a match.all i remember was shouting and cheering richard dunne. haf time came and i think it was 0-0 so i was nervouse about the second half but i new i could count on city to win on my first match The thing i remember most about the game was seeing richard dunne live, he was my real hero he played awsome on that day!I couldnt belive that city had won on my first ever live game, my uncle said it was because i came and i was city’s good luck charm. i am now a season ticket holder and never miss a game, i love the blues so much YOU ARE MY HEROES!! thankyou city for my fantastic day and everyday since then you have made my saterdays and sundays worth getting up for, i hope we get to istanbul and win uefa
