Hello, my name’s Luke, I am 6 years old and a massive City fan like my Dad. My soccer school (Dukinfield Youth JFC) got free tickets to the Wigan game last season when we drew 0-0. That was my first match, I liked the atmosphere, there were loads of people selling scarves, posters and food and even though we only drew it good.

I am also a Live4City member and last April got the chance to meet Geovanni and Elano and have my photo taken with them at a signing event.

I have been to quite a few matches now and I love it. My Mum takes me and I wear my City shirts, my favourite is my away one with Robinho on. I like Robinho, Elano, Richard Dunne and Benjani the best. My big brother came to his first match where we beat Portsmouth 6-0! My Mum has been to lots of matches from 1989 onwards and says her best match was in 1989 at Maine Road when we beat Man Utd 5-1.

Hope this is useful for you, Mum has a couple of photos and will try and scan them to you with this email.

My first City game was at City of Manchester stadium. It was a Carling cup round 3 match against Norwich city on 25th of September 2007. City won 1-0. Scorer was ex citizen Samaras.

My first ever man city game was last year.
I’d waited a long time to go to a city game.
I went to the game against Man United last year and it was the best game to probally go to.
After being amazed at how good our stadium was, the television doesnt half make or stadium look bad. We sat in the seats right next to the away fans, and all i can remember is the goal by Hull City Star Geovanni when he made his first start for us, his goal was Awesome!
It was a sudden hit of Ectasy that sent me of my seat i was so thrilled, chats of who the f*** is Nani weve got Geovanni was being shouted at high volume, the excitment was better than anything ever before!
That was my first ever game at CoMS

I live in San Diego California but my dad was born in Manchester and raised me to be a blue til I die. My first ever game was City v. Chelsea last season, and even though City lost I fell in love with them that day and the passion the fans had for a team that was defeated. I am City through and through and that will never change because of my first match!

The first proper (premier league league) game i watched city play was against united at the COMS. It felt like home and like you belonged there because you shared the same feelings as everyone else wearing blue in the ground, ‘you just wanted city to beat united’. It was great as we did win but i remember there were 4 aditional minutes at the end and i was just sat there tapping my feet, just hoping they would hold on to the 1-0 lead and they did! It was brilliant, not only did we beat the reds we also went top of the table. I have been to every game since and i love it to bits !!!

My first proper (first team) match, was against middlesbrough, on sunday october 7th 2007, who we beat 3-1. It was a fantastic first game of football, everything i wanted to see was there, flair, passion, goals. Elano became a god in those couple of weeks, scoring a fantastic free kick against newcastle before again scoring a great free kick against middlesbrough, to which luckily i caught on my digi-cam. It was the perfect day for me, and i have enjoyed many more since.

My very first trip to Manchester was to watch the game against M’boro on October 7th 2007. Went to the CityStore first and met Chairman, he was very nice and he had time to greet everyone.
After went inside the stadium and watched the game, the Man City fan keep singing and chanting through out the game, the atmosphere like this was fantastic. I never experienced such an atmosphere by watching any football game like this before.

My Mummy and Daddy took me to my first game and it was against Aston Villa last year and we won 1-0. My Dad told me that Michael Johnson scored. I missed the goal coz I was eating sweeties in the forecourt at the time.

I watched MCFC matches since last season. My first match is the Manchester Derby that City beaten United by one goal! It was my first time to know that MCFC is a good team that can beat any rivals! I hope I can go to COMS one day! City is the best!

P.S. I am the boy who wear glasses on the left side of the photo. it was taken when Manchester City came to HK in this summer! – Ryan

My Mummy and Daddy took me to my first game last year when I was 2. We played Aston Villa and we won 1-0 and Michael Johnson scored. I missed the goal though because my Daddy was taking me for a wee at the time.
