I must have been out of the country at the time then.

Do you have a date for that and then I can check my diary and see where I was.

I have seriously never ever heard of the bloke before and that has nowt to do with a lack of football knowledge does it. If it was in the news that Liverpool had signed a player I would have had no interest in reading about it, my being a City supporter .... and of course England supporter too.

:facepalm:england first,city second remember

Nothing wrong with supporting both equally CC4L.

i agree brighton

but he supports england first,city second

thats not equal now is it?

clerkin61 · Jul 3, 2012

my son is a liverpool supporter (despite my best efforts!) and has watched sterling on liverpool tv. He really rates him and thinks it would be a good move for sterling and us!

Sterling Archer · Jul 3, 2012

Do people realise the thread starter has just picked a player at random and made up a rumour? If Raheem Sterling comes to City, I will eat my hat.

DH - Sky Blue · Jul 3, 2012

It's actually on that football rumours site. Funnily enough it's under the category 'dodgy rumours', which coming from that site is a bit like Hitler calling someone else "a bit racist".

It's not really your problem though is it? Why the about it? I know plenty who have season tickets just for England, it's nothing new.

Sterling Archer · Jul 3, 2012

You do realise anyone and everyone can post a rumour to that site and it gets published regardless?

Judging by the Hitler comment, yes you do. ha ha ha

Yes. Did you understand my post? Have you heard of Hitler?

If you can find somewhere he has explicitly said he does then fine; even so, the fact he supports City at all at the moment is to be applauded.

Sterling Archer · Jul 3, 2012

Yes, missed the Hitler comment first time round.

We were only talking in terms of England winning the European Championship of the World Cup.

Get a bit of perspective you lemon!

covcity4life · Jul 3, 2012

the thread is called club or country and you said you would rather england win than city

thus city are your second team

i lost a lot of respect for you. i know that hurts.

Otis · Jul 3, 2012

:wave:

Numpty.

The question was, would you rather England won the European Championship or City won something and I said your country winning something had to be the ultimate. The whole point here is that is never club OR country, it is both.

I just stated what would be the ultimate.

England don't play week in week out and are only in major tournaments every two years. The club thing is totally different and is what you live and breathe everyday. It's not about what anyone prefers, it is about what they think would be the most important in terms of single achievements.

covcity4life · Jul 3, 2012

no the thread asked which you wanted more and i was shocked you would prefer england victory to cov promotion

oh well...ill let it go for the sake of future threads

Who the fook is Raheem Sterling?:thinking about:

It shocks me that people don't know certain players, you should YouTube him, he is an absolute phenomamel talent, if we signed him, I would be shocked that we could acquire such a talent for the season, fleck, kilbane and Raheem. I would (sorry to be vulgar..) .. Cream

some people only follow football casually

i know,its weird!!!!!!!!!

Grendel · Jul 3, 2012

Back to the thread, I've never heard of him either.

pusbccfc · Jul 3, 2012

If we got him a new CB, Kilbane, Fleck, we would win the league!

CovLis86 · Jul 3, 2012

Football Manager has shown me he's a future premier league star. That's all the proof I need

No, don't let it go.

Do England and the City ever play at the same time? Nope. England are only involved in major competitions once every two years. The two things are not comparable and are also both completely different.

It's not a question of supporting one over the other, I support both teams. One is the country of my birth and the other, the city of my birth. I love both equally. England winning something though would be so much bigger for the entire country and therefore so much bigger for me.

It's not a question of one over the other. Two very different levels of football, two completely different types of competition.

In 1966 the whole country was in celebration. Just think what that would be like now in 2012!!

I must confess I have been a bit on the wind-up with you and made out that City are my 2nd team, but did think you would realise that was a bit of a joke.

I love England and the Sky Blues. The two teams never ever play at the same time and England's tournaments are always outside the normal league season. There is absolutely no conflict whatsoever.

:wave:

covcity4life · Jul 3, 2012

ok...i dont beleive you:wave:

i think you are embarassed that i pulled you up on on not loving city as much as other fans and now you are trying to rewrite history

but its cool,i have also been on the wind up by continuing to bring it up,your still a city fan and ill stop.

i hope we win league one and you will realise you were wrong about yourself!

HAHA that's exactly where I learn all the future kids of football too, whoever scouts these players is a god because they'll all come good in the "real world" too. Kennedy Bakircioglu Champ Manager anyone?

To be fair City winning League One, would be like England winning the Euro's, World Cup, Ashes, RWC rolled into one.

An event of such earth shattering import that it would soon eclipse the first moon landing.

In years to come, people won't be asking "Do you remember where you were when Kennedy/John Lennon/Princess Diana died?"

They'll be asking Worldwide "Do you remember where you were when Coventry City won League One?"

They all will.

Otis · Jul 3, 2012

Shame it'll never happen.

You are completely wrong in your assumption, but if you don't wish to believe me that is fine. Why would I be embarrassed? If I was embarrassed about saying England winning being more important I would have kept my thoughts to myself and not posted anything at all surely wouldn't I? Why would I say it?

It's a free country of course and you can believe whatever you want.

Where FM falls to pieces is that I managed to guide England to Euro 2012 success on penalties. Either of those things happening is unrealistic but for both to happen at once is lunacy.

covcity4life · Jul 3, 2012

yes it is and i beleive cov winning ANYTHING be it l1,l2,jpt trophy etc will be the best feeling ever

i think its weird some people on a cov fan site could argue that but oh well

ill take into account your comments though

tippex9 · Jul 3, 2012

Slightly off topic then..... Lol

DH - Sky Blue · Jul 3, 2012

So are we signing this guy or not?

The Reverend Skyblue · Jul 3, 2012

Is it criminal to love your club as much as your country. I do equally, why is passion for both, in question !!!

The Rev

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Jul 3, 2012

I would prefer England to win the World Cup than Cov to win L1
