Once again, Man City is unable to sell out their ticket allo

Once again, Man City is unable to sell out their ticket allocation for the Millennium , leading to more tickets being returned. They're now up for grabs to Arsenal fans, who have already sold out!

I love the fact they don’t sell out everywhere, shows they kept the identity as a working class club, true football roots. No glory boy hunters there, and they are still getting success.

I've always said Man City will never be as big as Man Utd and if Everton got a rich owner, they'd never be as big as Liverpool. This is part of the reason why.

Although to be fair to them, they have had a lot of cup finals recently and maybe there isn't much interest in this because of that - even if is Maresca's first official match in charge.

And arab money hasn't paid for their success?
It's the other way around.
Man City have attracted the 'hooray Henry' crowd of glory hunters while United regular fans are working class.
Man Utd will always be the bigger club, even after many years of winning nothing and without the glory!

United, Liverpool and Arsenal are 99% plastic fans, poor showing from city but their fans in the millennium won't all have random accent's.

I don’t think they care, they have had so much success etc….might be some truth also in the fact that most of their real fans are from working class areas of Manchester and just can’t afford to go to all the games the club has these days….

If you think Man City will ever be as big as Man Utd then I'm worried for you.

I think you mis understood me. I thought he was being serious that Man City had attracted glory hunters even though the thread is about how they can sell the tickets , and that Man U fans are working class.

Think you need to breathe Worcester instead of trying to get back at me for showing what a hypocrite you are in relation to the Wrexham owners.

Apology accepted. ;)

So you've picked a bit and not clearly specified what you were responding to. Probably realised how ridiculous you sounded making out that City are bigger than City.

As for the Wrexham bit, leave that to the thread that's being discussed on.
