buanryoh Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 In which other country appart from in GReat britain, has the biggest fan base (of city fans)? would be interesting to know. Perhaps we should try and recruit people, just like universities do! I've recruited two japanese and 1 chinese, and try and get my mates interested, other english from north etc. Anyone else ever find themselves trying to pursuade people in some way? Could be extra revenue for the club (in the future)! everylittle helps right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stylus Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 I think we should leave Wales alone and take Scotland. There are quite a few Scottish City fans on here and recently a question was asked if there were any City groups in Scotland. Lets take Scotland by Storm!!

Guest simmos the gaffer Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 One of my mates from the Sunday side emigrated to Aus earlier this year and has already met up with a couple of City fans out there so we are supported in far reaching places. I also know a couple in South Africa. Not sure this will get us much extra revenue other than if they buy on line from the City shop!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SydneyCider Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Yeah, i've been using Wilkshire's name to try and get the aussie interested. They're largely not interested in premiership footy though, so it's a bit of a struggle to get them into City Have you seen the cost of buying City shop stuff from here though? I wanted to buy a couple of coffee mugs, but the postage was more than the mugs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 I think the two growth areas are the Far East and America, which is why the top European teams go to these places on pre-season tours. Weren't we supposed to be going to go on a tour of China a few seasons back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
