由於火热的世界盃，搜寻到这篇旧闻 :P 'City till I die' - Noel Gallagher Sunday 11 May 2003 “They’ve got Mick Hucknall, I support Manchester City…Need I say more?.... I would rather kick my daughter out of the house then let her go and support Manchester United.” - Noel Gallagher on Football Focus （Mick Hucknall 为曼城团 Simply Red 主唱，死忠红魔迷，团名也因此而取） Everyone knows Noel Gallagher and 'our kid' Liam are massive City fans. Like thousands of young lads, they stood on the Kippax and have lived through the crushing disappointments and champagne supernova moments of being a Blue. Noel gave an exclusive interview to Football Focus on Manchester City leaving Maine Road. On the difference between City and United: "They’ve got Mick Hucknall. I support City. Need I say anymore! Any City fan that has got a child, I would rather kick my daughter out of the house than let her go and support Arsenal or Manchester United. She is going to be a City supporter if she likes football. Actually if she does not like football she’ll probably be a United fan.” On Kevin Keegan: “From the minute he began coaching the team we became a better team. He had virtually the same team as Joe Royle and then all of a sudden it was like watching Brazil, to coin a phrase. I got talking to him and he made me feel that I could play for City.” （不知道後来头子对 Keegan 的看法有无改变 :P Keegan 於 05 年三月球季中 下台，由 Stuart 'Psycho' Pearce 接任。） On Man City’s final game at Maine Road: "Oasis were asked to perform after the final game: “I’m not going to go because they are trying to get me on the pitch to do some embarrassing miming to some Oasis song. Once the game is finished, they are going to wheel out a stage and all these people are going to perform on the pitch. To which I say to you ‘how are you going to get 35,000 people off the pitch who are trying to take the pitch home?” （虽然如此，但 Oasis 还是成为了最後一个在 Maine Road 演唱的团体，为了 慈善募款；且据当时报导头子有计画买下 Maine Road 的部分草皮、座椅及回转门 然後在自家庭院重现一小角 Maine Road 的场景。） On Maine Road: ‘The young kids that support City now - that we should be thankful for, considering that it would be easy to support Man Utd as a six year old. They need a shiny new stadium and we’ve got to move on. I was originally disappointed when they decided to leave, but we’ve got to move on. Its going to be great and the new stadium is fantastic.” （嗯很符合头子性格，而 CoMS 也真的不错，我觉得是我去年参观过几个球场 我最喜欢的。而且入场只要用磁卡感应，真屌 XD 不愧是尖端科技的结晶） （不过当然，对於 Maine Road 我想老球迷一定会不舍，而对於新球迷则是只能 向往一番了。就像枪手要搬离 Highbury 一样啊…） “It was always a dream to play at Maine Road. If only to make Bonehead play there because he hates Man City - he’s a red. To make him walk out on that pitch in front of 30,000 Oasis fans - which is incidentally why he left the group.” （原来 Bonehead 是这样子才退团的 XD 他和 Ian Brown 应该是极少数曼城团中 的红魔迷吧） All quotes courtesy of Football Focus.
