    Our first trip to Wembley, what a day. The result seemed inevitable from before kick off.

    I was only 9 but had already been going to City week in week out for 4 years. I always remember being annoyed that all the Man U and Liverpool fans got to tag along on our day, people who couldn't have cared less about City until they got the chance of a day out.

    Whether bindipper or United, f**k the Bradford Reds ...

    My parents weren't City fans at all, but took me down that day.

    I suppose you had a problem with us being there, even though it's led to 25 years and counting of season tickets for a group of us now numbering 7.

    Idiot.

    Looks like he’s lonely again, the prose of a 12 year old me thinks?

    Like that JB. My wife wasn't a fan but came as I and both sons were going. I remember her at the end of the game, standing on her seat, waving a City flag(which we still have) and singing along with Freddie Mercury. She has been a ST holder ever since.

    I remember last time when we faced Millwall, and there were two very strange looking, rather inebriated middle agers shouting something like "where were you when we faced xxx team" down at the people coming up from Wembley Way.

    I thought, God, you are some sad creatures.

    The sentiment is just ridiculous.

    There'll have been several hundred people/families that saw us that day that will have been converted, as there always is with these big successes, but some inept people think they're better for discovering it first :sick::sick::sick:
