Blue Moon.... The Mumsnet branch of the Man City supporters club

[MightySquonk]

welcome

Oh Squonk [guffaw]

< tweaks the Bertie blue nose >

Excuse me Squonk, I think you'll find I'm in charge of all sky-blue matters.......Tord will be round to sort you out.

I'll convert you yet, tnog.

wanna borrow my scarf again?

Sven... please liven things up a bit. We were bored stiff last night

Big membership you have, Squink

Scarf is quite 'postmodern', I may actually wear it this afternoon to class - give the students a bit of a laugh.

twas in response to another thread. I don't just go around randomly starting threads for you to laugh at you know

although....

You should change your name to, HighAndMightySquonk.

< uncrosses fingers and leaves thread as the hoards of supporters jostle me out of the way..>

Mightysquonk - ignore them all!! Being a City fan makes you strong, resiliant and used to dissapointment - however we do have our moments in the sun - and Micah Richards is very very easy on the eye - god i went all girly then x

yaaay shabster

see, tnog, I have friends ner ner na ner nerrrrr

Every time I see Micah Richards, I remember his first ever interview

oh yes i remember the ffflippin one! Every time he gets near goal I shout 'shoot' just in the hope he will score and take his shirt off - think that may be an illegal thought cause im 51 and he's a baby!! what the hell

Just going to tidy my sons room and ogle at his Richards poster - the room is a tip i may be some time - will be out for the next game - Im forever blowing bubbles huh!

he is a baby, but so what! Tis not illegal to dream, is it?

ooh Hellooo! This is a friendly place isn't it?

Resident of the Colin bell stand here!

full of classy, intelligent folks - might even be called a 'cleek'

hello lucycat - you just made me smile. My favorite player from the Colin Bell era was Franny Lee - only cause we share the same height and build. Think you might guess I quite like Micah Richards. welcome to the gang xx

lucycat, I knew you'd be along sooner or later

I remember watching Colin Bell play with my dad. Dad had tears in his eyes and told me to watch carefully as I would never see a better player than Colin.

Mightysquonk is your dad a famous footballer? OR did he go to school with Colin Bell? Tell me more - I'm so nosey.

oh squonk ... I so used to like you

sorry, shabster. Just re-read what I posted.

should have said: "I remember my dad and I watching Colin Bell play"

dad was with me, not the great man.

TMP - commiserations, we didn't deserve to win the other night. Mind you, neither did your team they were equally as bad as each other

Have to admit, I felt mightiliy sorry for all those Londoners who travelled all the way up to Manchester to watch that pile of crap that they tried to pass off as a football match.

And aren't we playing again at weekend? Wonder if any of them will try to liven it up a bit

LOL - yes, there is another game this weekend ... let's see if this one is more exciting!

good luck

good luck yourself.

May the best team win, eh?

I used to live on Main Road, y' know (dreams of far-off days hearing the crowd singing blue moon). I now sadly live too far away but by ds does take the mickey when I ask him how Man City have done.

You had me going there Squonk - have no idea of your age so couldnt make a guess. Did think of your name on mumsnet - begins with Mighty - thought Mighty Quinn - then thought sure he is quite young. Oh well it kept my mind ticking over for a while. Yes we play West Ham on Sunday - i really have a strong dislike for Bowyer. xx

ooh, dramaqueen, my gran & grandad used to live a couple of roads away from Maine Road Used to go to visit them on a Saturday morning, see the match in the afternoon, have corned beef butties at their house for tea and then head home after all the traffic had gone

Am not mighty for that reason, shabster. Just because it came up on a different thread about a group called Mighty Squonk (I'm normally just squonk) so I namechanged for a few days and it's stuck so far.

Not sure I like being so mighty though, I may change to "QuiteNiceSquonkInSmallDoses"

Although I was watching city when Niall Quinn played for them (and a few years before and after) but I live in Yorkshire now so don't get to the games very often (if at all)
