    You're right, there was an unpleasant band of Rangers no surrender types common at away games in the 00s. Not seen them evident at games for a long time though.

    I have no affiliatation to another club. Although I do have a softspot for AFC Wimbledon because of the way they where treat by MK Dons, The Football League and Pete Winkleman.

    I have a soft spot for Bristol Rovers I had a season pass whilst I was at Uni.
    Always look out for the results.
    It’s only a game.

    Not a City fan, but seems to have adopted Rangers as I think he has some loose hereditary connection with Scotland.

    That's a fair challenge, I withdraw the perjorative 'unpleasant'.

    Lived in Southampton for a while in the 70’s. Very friendly club and some great players (Payne, Stokes, Channon, Osgood etc.). Always enjoyed The Dell - especially when City played there.
