Chelsea or Man City?

So, now that the season is over and decided, which club is going to sell more replica shirts? (outside of London and Manchester) I also predict one or two Man Utd shirts popping up in our charity shops' bargain bins

Man City will sell 4 to every 1 Chelsea shirt I reckon.

I would guess that City would sell more - they have so many chav fans, but Chelsea fans have too much class to wear replica shirts.

Chelsea will sell the most. It seems that a lot of plastics call Man City fans plastic without seeing the irony of it and I think that could put the plastic City fans off. And Chelsea have had more time at the top to build up more plastics. And on another note, I also saw a Chelsea flag in someone's front garden today that wasn't there last time I passed about a month ago.

So are you saying that Chelsea season ticket holders are 'plastic' fans?

Of course so they must be a plastic fan.

Alot of City fans aren't plastic to be fair. When I met a load of them before and after their semi-final in London against United they were all Mancs. United fans on the other hand were not.

Despite strong links to Manchester City, Chelsea fans have signed a one year extension to remain at the club

Total f***ing bypassed football idiots on this site, and other sites I'm sure.

Both Chelsea and Man City have a very broad and very deep fanbase that stretches back into eternity. Doubt that either club will sell very many replica shirts to people who weren't already fans. Kids under ten with over-indulgent non-football-fan parents perhaps, but other than that, nada. Would expect both clubs to sell shedloads of commemorative shirts to the existing fanbase, as is right and proper. We'd do exactly the same.

Well that that depends. The ones that are not from the area or have no real connection to the area. And I am not saying all Chelsea fans are plastic. Just a considerable amount are.

Good post, doesn't show any hatred... more should look at this and think before they talk bollocks.

Totally agree with this, don't get me wrong, but my point is, now that Man City are in a good position to dominate for the next few years, and Chelsea now champions of Europe, how many "extra" fans who have "supported them all their lives" - will come crawling out of the woodwork? I used to work with a guy who insisted he had Leeds United pumping through his veins - until they got relegated, then all of a sudden, he was a lifelong Man United fan - I suspect his allegiance will soon change to Man City if it hasn't already. I don't get these people, they have to "support" the "team of the moment" to reflect their over inflated egos.... "I am a winner, therefore, I only support winners!" ... sad people!
