one of my students today from London asked why I wasnt a city fan if I came from Manchester? after an explaination of geography regarding stockport and facial hair I asked who he supported "well i used to support liverpool but they are pony , I support siteh now " Double funny.
Could be an isolated incident or one of the reasons they've started calling us rags instead of londoners.

even funnier because its true , the bolton fan I was assessing wet himself. shoe on the other foot ?
option a) embrace the new sometimes clueless foriegners and desist with the your not local nugget.
option b) embrace the new fans but they are different from the reds
option c) only locals are true fans and it wont matter cos we're city and we always f it up, so it should be short lived.
option d) obviously you get to pick a witty comeback
.........................but you have this nagging doubt in the back of your head,its a different city now isnt it.
got to take the good with the bad.

Yes, how old are these students?

I don't teach kids, I write high level courses for software and have to assess the trainers who teach the courses I write. The students ranged from 25-40.
Why is this so hard to believe ? The Bertie's will have more glory hunters IF they become more successful , I have seen loads of Chelsea and Arsenal fans whilst ref'ing around Manchester area the last 10-15 years . They aren't all students or immigrants to mancunia , which means some of our locals don't support either the red or blue but a semi-successful southern teams.

Twitchy starfish time yet ?
I nether want or need your approval Paul just relaying a funny moment that for me, if not for you, shows how a major plus point for any Bertie's arguments is being eroded . I hope it doesn't continue meaning the bitters don't win anything for years again.
