My cost to attend a home game far eclipses yours!

9 for me! But I'm an American who has to travel quite the distance, so I think that's pretty good

I had tried email, but he was completely unresponsive there. 3 emails, no replies.

Nothing will top that for me either. I was laughing so hard at work yesterday reading all the comments, I had to explain myself to my staff. As Americans, I had to start with the basic stuff, the football pyramid, relegation and promotion, derby matches, etc... but once i laid the foundations and started telling them all the funny rovers stories I could think of, I had them all in stitches as well.

As a resident of the USA, I cordially disagree. We don't want them either.

Yes, I'm afraid it's made me more optimistic and hopeful than a typical City fan!

It sounds nicer than saying "brainwashed" or "Stockholm Syndrome" ?

I can't guarantee, but my win % is better than a lot of managers!

You can blame a fellow City fan for that... he promised to take me to a match if I ever came over to visit, and silly me, I didn't even ask what team or anything. UK Border Control always gives me funny looks when I say I'm coming over for the footy and they ask what team I am going to see! I've been to 12 matches in 5 trips since 2013.

and out of date crisps?

I have been to Bath, and yes, it was a very nice place to visit. I will keep this one in mind.

I do have a membership. I always buy one when I'm traveling over just to help out with getting tickets. I guess I was thinking the match always sold out at the season ticket stage.

I have reached out to the SLO, but no response yet. I know impatience is quite an American trait All the fun of being a City away fan is the atmosphere and vibe, singing along, which would be missing if I sat in the home end. I am up to date on all of my immunizations though, just in case

I've been a City fan for 10 years now since my first trip across the pond in 2013, and I'll be returning later this fall for a couple weeks. I always try to take in a couple games, see some new grounds, etc but this time I've apparently picked awful dates for my trip I'll be in England from October 27 - November 6, and the first weekend is unfortunately Cardiff away which I know will be impossible to get tickets to, so I'm looking for some alternative recommendations for that weekend. I thought maybe rugby, but I didn't see fixtures posted yet. Or women's league? Something non-league? I'm good to travel pretty much anywhere in the country. Fingers crossed we make it to the 4th round of the Carabao Cup and get a nice draw, and I'll definitely be getting tickets to see us at home on November 4 against the Owls. Thanks in advance!

I have all the tickets for all the matches I've attended over the past 10 years, and I hope to add to the collection when I hop across the pond later this year!
