WHO ARE CHARM CITY REDS?
We are Geoff, Adam and Matt. We are Kim and Lori. We are Fran, Clinton, Ryan and Adam. We are Josh, George, and Jeremy. We are Nigel, Akerele, Jim, James, and Meghan. We are Charm City.
We're a group brought together by a special bond. A love for a club that isn't in our own backyard but for one that drew all of us together. Whether it was for the way the Class of '92 captured our hearts or how Sir Alex commanded perfection. Wheter it was Charlton or Best, Cantona or Giggs, Ronaldo or Rooney, we were drawn to the club. We are United.
Our Journey
Charm City Reds started as just a few in 2010 at Tir Na Nog. Shortly after the inception, we moved to Slainte in Fells Point. The group grew larger and larger. New faces seemed to come in every week. For many seasons, we gathered and cheered much to the chagrin of other supporters, the bartender(s), and even ownership. We watched as United lifted trophy after trophy, knocking Liverpool off their "fucking perch."
Late in 2013, the place we grew and called home had become unfriendly to United supporters. We ultimately made the decision to seek a place to call our own and little did we know it would be just around the corner.
Our Home
In early Januray 2014, we made it official, and moved to Todd Conner's. We were immediately welcomed with open arms from owner, Red Cassidy. We were home! We had a place where the flag flies high, and a place to call our own.
Today, we gather there on gameday. Sometimes there are just a few of us and it feels like years gone by. Sometimes if you're running 5 minutes late, it's standing room only. We aren't the biggest group but much like the city we live, we are loud and relentless. We show more passion with every shot, every tackle and every save. We embrace the badge, the heritage, the players and coaches. We may be thousands of miles from Old Trafford but we are Reds.
