这篇文章来自reddit用户整理的曼城历史上一些重要人物关于曼城发自肺腑的十分有意义/有趣的发言,原标题:A small collection of the best quotes about Manchester City
我会给有一些发言注明背景,以帮助大家理解和体会在他人口中“做一个曼城球迷是一种怎样的体验。”
"It was 1934 when I first walked into Maine Road. I must go again." - Manning 31.05.99 "我第一次去缅因路球场是1934年。是时候再去一次了。"——Manning,1999年
*曼城在1934年击败朴茨茅斯捧起了足总杯
*Bernard Manning是一名搞笑艺人,他之于曼城,就如同赵本山之于铁岭,至少我是这么理解的。后面这个曼城铁粉还会多次出现。他的个人wiki页上有句介绍是"life long Man City supporter""
Sometimes we"re good and sometimes we"re bad but when we are good, at least we"re much better than we used to be and when we are bad we"re just as bad as we always used to be, so that"s got to be good hasn"t it?" - Mark Radcliffe 11.01 "有时我们表现得非常棒,有时我们表现得很糟糕,但当我们表现出色时,我们能比平时高一档,但当我们发挥不佳时,我们也就那样了,不能再差了。这是件挺让人高兴的事儿,不是么?"——Radcliffe(英国艺人,曼城的支持者),2001
"That"s it, game over!" - Brian Horton commentating as City go 2-0 down vs Gillingham in the 86th min of the 99 play-off final “好吧,我想比赛已经没有悬念了,曼城已经交代了。”——99年,曼城在与吉林汉姆的英冠升级附加赛第86分钟再次失球,评论员Brain Horton如此说道。
"I said it wasn"t over!" - Horton 8 mins later with city level at 2-2 “我早就说过,比赛还远远没有结束!”——比赛的第94分钟,曼城奇迹般地将比分扮成2-2,Horton不得不肿着脸改口
"I was playing for the Tampa Bay Rowdies and the coach
told me if I wasn"t playing well, he"d pull me off at half time. I said
"Really? At Manchester City all we used to get at half time was half an
orange." Rodney Marsh “我当时在为坦帕湾效力,教练告诉我如果我表现的不好,他就会在半场时换下我。”我问道“真的吗?在曼城时,我们通常会用中场的时间吃半个橘子压压惊。”——Rodney Marsh(70年代曼城的标王,是个特立独行的怪才,是球队当时的头号射手)
"We"re jinxed. We can"t get anything
right. If Dolly Parton had triplets, Joe Royle would be the one with the
bottle." - Bernard Manning 20.03.99 这句话我并不是很明白,前半句是说“曼城被诅咒了,我们什么都做不好。”,但后面的比喻我不是很懂。——Manning On my gravestone the epitaph will read: I"d rather be here than old trafford." Manning 31.05.02 我墓碑上的墓志铭该这么写:“比起老特拉福德,我想还是这儿更美好。”——Manning 2002
"City have just built a fantastic multi-million pound new stand - the trouble is, it"s facing the pitch." Manning 1995 "曼城刚刚耗资数百万英镑修建了一整面看台——但问题在于,坐在看台上的观众会面向球场。"——Manning 又开自嘲,1995年

Mark Lawrenson)(yes that one) 2001 “曼城有大量的球迷,有着不错的场地,他们的球迷是这个国家最棒的。”——Lawrenson(电视评论员),2001 "I"m so glad Goerge Weah left. If he"d have taken 12 shots at John Lennon he"d still be alive today." Manning 2001 “对于乔治-维阿的离开,我很开心。我敢打赌,给他12发子弹让他来射杀约翰-列侬,列侬今天一定还活着。”——Manning,2001
"We could get into Europe this season or we could get relegated - that"s why I support city." Noel Gallagher 2000 “曼城要么是在为欧战而战,要么就是为保级而战——这就是我支持曼城的原因。”——Noel Gallagher,2000
"That division clung to us like quicksand. We were the biggest show in town whereever we went and people welcomed us with open arms...and then tried to kick us." Joe Royle on life in division 2 1999 “英甲球队期待着与我们相遇。我们是他们一年到头里最大的盼头,我们所到之处,当地球迷都张开双臂迎接我们...然后试着给我们点颜色看看。”——Joe Royle谈起曼城踢英甲的感受。
*Joe Royle是曼城在英甲时的教练,也是球队最困难时的教练。
"Four years ago it was all Man United, Man United, Man United. It drove me mad. If I mentioned Man City they laughed at me. Who"s laughing now?" Malcolm Allison on city"s late 60s dominance 03.06.69 "四年前,人们总是曼联、曼联、曼联地说个不停。这让我狂躁不已。如果我提起曼城的话,大家都会笑话我。现在有谁还会笑我吗?"——Malcolm Allison谈起60年代后期,曼城的崛起,满满的骄傲,69年6月。
