#Sharkteam
I've never been a massive fan of 'the Cityzens'. The name isn't exactly something you can rally behind however clever it is!
The blues, meh.
But 'The Sharks' has somewhat of a dangerous sound to it...
The Jaws theme tune as a chant...
It's taken. Abertay Uni are The Sharks, my son was club captain in his final year there, a few seasons back.
So, no thanks.
Get them a milk advert
I don't recall it being spelt with the "y" back in the day - I think that's a bit naff - but I've always quite liked The Citizens as our alternative nickname.
What has Manchester got to do with sharks?
The Southport Sharks are just up the road from where I live

My badge, when I was a kid, said The Citizens
But I like a play on words so The Cityzens is an improvement for me
I think it is with an I.
What has a political movement got to do with city :-D

I have considered this for a few days and now acknowledge that Manchester has very little to do with bananas either!
I have decided to embrace the shark.
Sharks!!!! Sharks team!!!!
Are we a rugby team, an American football team? I hate it.
We could do much better with a lot of thought and imagination I would think. But in the meantime let's stick with The Cityzens or more correctly The Citizens. That's is my opinion, but I am old so free to ignore and let City youth supporters have the final say.
if you put down your daily mail and have a look around you will see why sharks, mendy explains it
Sale will be over the blue moon..

Never would read the Daily Fail or the Scum Sun.
I will read Mendys explanation and get back, a link to it would have been good.
Explanation is a load of goobleygook.

City doesn't have a lot to do with socialist movements either.
and TBF, Manc had a lot more in common with Eagles but that was shunned!
Mancheter has a canals
Sharks are born through birthing canals
There's your link
You've lost me on the "socialist movements" thing. What did I miss?
Just 'City' will do me
Lets face it there are many other teams called City, but only we are referred to as 'City'

Dare I say sounding bit American hype to me. Know the ship canal gets murky but doubt sharks have arrived in it yet ?! lol

Not really a fan of the sharkteam thing but this made me laugh a bit
