Same must apply to Man City fans who were there when they were in the 3rd tier, being told they’d be 2 games from being League, FA cup and European champions.
I was in University in the early 1980s with a Man City fan and I can confirm that he is absolutely living the dream now.
Good for him, I say.

We’d be exactly the same if it were us Supporters of any club would. 👍

Although, half of us would be saying that we can't belive that Foden, Palmer and Lewis should be playing more and the other half would be saying that they were rubbish, parks players and would be lucky to be playing in the conference

My brother went to Manchester University in 1968, stayed up there, kids born and still live there. My nephew, now in his 50s and a grandfather himself is loving it but is waiting for it all to go tits up in true Man City fashion, as he says. He’s been through the shite times, by their standards, and refer to these latter years as ‘since we won the lottery’.
Him and his mates have weathered some dismal times whilst being taunted by their neighbours. How they’re loving it now. For the long time, been through it all, Man City fans it’s wonderful in my opinion. Imagine Swansea having the success Man Utd had, then us turning the tables. It’s that scenario x10 for them being in the same city.
They’re still waiting for it to crash & burn though but the years they’ve had recently would have all been worth it he says.

You never hear them being called “The noisy neighbours” anymore. 👍

No about 3 or 4 thousand students I think.
Did so say that it was just the two of us?

It is funny you say that as my mate is always saying that he is expecting it all to go wrong at any minute!
It is a bit like talking to another Cardiff City fan.
