Amy with a bit of help from my daddy Howie de Blue


Why Blue?

From Amy McCarthy, Galway, Ireland, aged 6 (nearly 7)

I support City because my dad does, and I don`t like the color red. When my mammy gives me my penguin biscuits for my school lunch, I never take a red one. I don`t like red M&M`s or smarties.

I have been to see City this season and met all the players including my hero Shauny Goater, he is my hero now that Gio has gone. Shauny told me he would score a goal for me against Burnley and he did and me and my dad went mad. I have a city shirt, pyjamas and a huge poster on my wall.

I like it when daddy listens to the matches on the Internet, even though he gets mad when we lose; we will be good again one day.
