I never thought in my lifetime that I would see City playing in the premiership, never mind an FA Cup final and Europe. Big day for City but also sad that so many lifelong supporters no longer with us will not be there to witness today. Very proud day whatever happens. Feel very privileged to be part of the day
So true, but they are all with us in spirit, there is no club without fans and we owe it to all those who came before us to do the team proud today. I for one will be in tears for abide with me, and probably at several other times.
To a loving brother, taken on retirement and no time to enjoy it ! Used to sell City programmes on match days at the old Boothferry Park--West stand then go see the game.
Nice sentiments Vern, i'm sure all our sadly departed fans are looking down with big grins on their faces
Already been to the cemetery this morning where tears were shed. No doubt they will be later regardless of the result. We owe to it those who never saw this day to make it one big party.
Wonder what TigerTery would think of today. Certainly miss his comments from the bbc 606 days. Sure all would be very proud so will raise my glass whilst looking out on Wembley Way.
