My First City Game

My first City game was in the 2002/2003 season and City had the impossible task of playing Fulham. I was 5 years old and was being accompanied by two of my uncle’s. My favourite memory of that fantastic game was when City scored an awesome goal. I will always remember the way the crowd roared and cheered, the atmosphere was amazing. Also in that game was one of David James’s greatest saves. The final score was 1-1.

My first city game was the home game against blackburn in 2002, and i was 7.I walked to my seat at maine road and the atmosphere hit me, i was home. We were 2-0 down then Shaun Goater single handedly turned the game around to get us a point.
I have had a season ticket ever since

My first City game was Boxing Day 2002. I was only 2 and a half but was so excited about my first vist to Maine Road with all my family. We played Aston Villa, won 3-1 and I remember every time we scored the noise was so deafening it made me shake. A very special player Mark Viven-Foe scored 2 goals and Ali Benarbia scored the other. It was a great Christmas present and I now love the roar every time we score !

Summer ‘02 at Maine Road

It was Summer ‘02 at Maine Road. My name appeared upon the board, welcoming me to my first match just as the Manchester City Team walked out onto the pitch and the whole crowd was screaming and jumping about. It was a good game with City scoring the winning goal. The atmosphere after the match was electric and one i will never forget.

I was brought up near Newcastle upon Tyne and at the age of 5 was already used to the young Magpies booing my shirt at mini-soccer.

My Dad had tried to get us tickets to the derby, which we won 3-1, but as a consolation took me to Maine Road the following week to the Charlton game.

We lost 1-0 but I was completely overwhelmed by the size of the crowd and the atmosphere.

Now I get to the game whenever I can.

I went to watch City Vs Burnley at Maine Road for my 8th birthday. I remember walking into the stadium holding my dads hand. And from the minute i got in there to the minute i left the hairs on my neck were up on end. It is a memory I will never forget.
