My first city game was against Pompey when I was 7 years old (2003). I travelled all the way up from London to see City play. It was the first Premiership match at the new stadium and I was using my brand new season ticket. I can remember looking around and seeing nothing but sky blue, and hearing all the City songs I know of-by-heart today. I cheered City on all the way though even when we were losing 1-0. Equalising in the last minute was to me like we won even though we only got a draw. From then on I was City till I die. Since then I’ve come up from Highbury (everyone at school is an Arsenal fan) for half of the home games and make as many London away games as I can.

lost 1 nil and sun ji hai scored an own goal
only true city fans come back after that!

the first city match i saw was when City won Bolton 6-2. brilliant match. it was played in the City of Manchester Stadium.

What an atmosphere! Cardiff was alive as it was for any event at the Millennium Stadium. Few drinks in “The Prince Of Wales” over the road from the ground, usually reserved for home fans during match days.

My Girlfriend bought us tickets for my birthday. It was also my first visit to the Millennium Stadium. TNS started to sing in their little block, at which point the half of the lower tier filled with City fans bellowed out to Blue Moon! The sound was immense and I will never forget it.

Thank you to my girlfriend and also for city for making it such a great day!

Manchester City v Bolton Wanderers, 18th April 2003

“I went with my Mum, Uncle Andy and Craig. I felt a bit scared because it was very noisy, but it was a great 3rd Birthday present! And City beat Bolton 6 – 2 !!!”

Unbeknown to me, at the time, my first game was an accurate representation of the rollercoaster life that is City. Losing 1-0 to the opposing side, taught me not only about the inconsistency of football, but also the definite loyality of the City fans. Watching my first game, I realised my love and passion for the team; and since that day, City have always had the support of me and my Dad. It’s obvious. It’s ‘City till I die.’

I am 51 yrs old from originally Worcestershire now living in Aylesbury. I have been a City fan from the age of 9. I have been to several matches in the past but dont have many chances to see the City. i have been with my 2nd wife for the past 16yrs but only married her in March 2003. She is a Baggie fan and for a treat i took her to a one of the last matches at Maine road where she sat and watched the match US v WBA from the make shift stand made from scaffolding, I remember it being a freezeing cold day, the wife was happy cause her team won.

Now for the spooky thing but true. We visited some friends last week 17/18th January 2009 back up in the midlands we had’nt seen them for 13 months and stayed over. On the Sunday 18th we went to Bescot Market which is held at Walsall F C football ground. Whilst walking round the stalls donning my new Man City coat one marketeer said to me Arh a Man City supporter I;ve got just the thing for you, thinking it might be a cheap City shirt he pull out a box with MCFC motif on, inside was a sheet off paper with ex city players signatures on a photo of Maine Road ground and a book full of photos from the final season 2002/2003 played at Maine road, he told me that the selling price for this was originally £120.00 he had been selling them for £40.00, he let me have it for a fiver. I bought it. On the way back I was flicking through the book and noticed on one of the photos God and behold was My wife and me sat in the make shift stand.

It was if that book was destin to come to me.

CITY TILL I DIE.

We lost that day 1-0, but it was great to see one of the last ever games at an iconic stadium. Travelled up from the south coast, and that trip has become more and more common over the years.
