The grandmother of Phil Foden has the common songs of rival fans aimed at the mother of the Premier League star Claire Rowlands, and expressed the 'anger and disgust' of the family.
Mary Keates, the grandmother of the paternal grandmother of the Manchester City, said MailOnline: 'It is really upset from me and the whole family, it is disgusting. It really hurt to hear what the fans were shouting about Claire.
“These people have to take a good look at themselves. Claire is a great woman and mother. I don't want to say too much because I make it so angry and gets sick. '
Mrs. Rowlands, 45, became shameful the subject of terrible hymns of Manchester United during Sunday's Limp 0-0 pat position on Old Trafford, because the midfielder of England was the target of sections of the home support that made her an 'S ** g' for his replacement in the 58th minute.
Mary, 64 was married to Foden's grandfather Walter who died in February 2003 at the age of 47, which inspired the player's city for the player.
The Sky Blues star was very close to his grandfather, whose name he was given as a middle name, and remains close to Mary, who regularly visited her at the £ 200,000 house in stockport that he bought for her with his substantial football yields.
Claire's incidental violations, especially after drinking, brought her to the spotlight earlier, and once she was arrested because she was once drunk and disorderly, she admitted to the police that she was 'like an animal' when she was a boss.
Then there was an incident on a boxing match, when her protective instincts visited the young Phil hair becomes involved in a melee with noisy spectators.
And last year a very noisy fireworks in the garden of her Cheshire Village Mansion put the nose of her chic neighbors together firmly.
But her dedication to young Phil and the rest of her close -knit family is indisputable, like many of those who grew up to Phil, 24, orphaned.
Foden was raised in the neighborhood in a modest end of the terrace house on Grenville Street, close to Stockport County Football Club, where many locals who know the family also expressed anger about the abuse aimed at Claire.
Steve Brown, 64 who has lived in the area all his life and runs a local garage, said: 'I know Claire and the rest of the family, they still come here all the time because they have a lot of family in the area.
“Claire is a great, decent woman. I am a fan of Manchester United myself, but I don't understand why so many of them screamed about her. Maybe it's just jealousy because people can't stand it to see a good woman doing the right thing by her family. '
He added: 'Claire played an important role in making Phil a success. She took him to training, kept him straight and narrow and she is a very nice, respectable woman. She has devoted her life to her son and does not earn this abuse. '
Another local, who gave her name as Joan, and who has known the family all her life, said: “Claire is very talkative and sober, like the rest of the family. They are really nice people who have not become a big head. Nobody here has a bad word about saying about them.
'We always see them here because they still have family in this area. They may be very rich and have a lot of money, but she didn't change that. Clare is a great woman, she has done a lot for her son, so I don't understand why people hate her so much. '
Pete Butcher, another local said: “Claire is a really nice woman, she is the one who made Phil Foden the success that he is. He wouldn't be such a big star if it wasn't for her.
'I remember that when he was a child, everything he wanted to do was play football. Claire always brought him to training here and there and ensure that he concentrated on his football.
“There is absolutely nothing wrong with her. She is a strong woman who has done an excellent job and raises a son who has become such a big star. '
Another neighbor added: 'I don't understand why people call Claire these terrible names. She did nothing wrong, apart from raising a successful son, but I think people are simply jealous because of social media.
'When she comes to this area, she still talks to all of us and we laugh well. Both her and Phil, her husband did a great job with the children. They are a very nice, sober trice that did not let the money come to them. '
The wealth of Foden has transformed the fortune of his entire family, including buying a £ 3 million, six bedrooms gated house in a chic Cheshire Village for his parents and brothers and sisters.
It is just on the road of the £ 2.85 million mansion that he shares with partner Rebecca Cooke, 24, and their two children, son Ronnie, six and daughter True, Three.
In the world of Premiership footballers, the parents of few players are just as well-known as the mother of Phil Foden, and not always for the right reasons.
But what criticism has attracted the strange mistake, her formidable spirit has been the foundation behind the meteorical rise of her son in the sport.
Born and bred in Stockport, her journey was one of resilience, sacrifice and an unyielding dedication to family … with an occasional bump along the road.
She is the matriarch of a vibrant household, mother of five children: Phil, Callum, 27, Kenzi, 14, Lois, Zeven and the six -year -old Avayah.
Her partnership with Phil Foden Sr., 46, an avid supporter of Manchester United, adds a low -friendly rivalry to the dynamics of the family, given the faithfulness of Claire and Phil Jr. To Manchester City.
Phil's passion for football was clear from a tender age. Claire often reminds himself of her son's unique focus and noted that he was 'the cheapest child ever', without interest in games or toys, only fixed on a football.
Claire recognized his talent and played a crucial role in feeding it. At only four years old, Phil was introduced to the Academy of Manchester City, a movement orchestrated and supported by her non -repellent belief in his potential.
She was a constant presence, kept him on training sessions, cheered from the sidelines and made sure that he remained grounded in the midst of the budding attention.
Claire, who has described herself as 'an animal' in alcohol, has occasionally pushed herself into the public eye with her wild behavior. A notorious incident took place in 2022 during a boxing event in the AO Arena of Manchester.
After Amir Khan's match against Kell Brook, a confrontation broke out in which Phil and some other members of the crowd were involved.
Claire, witness to her son who was the target, intervened without hesitation and in the subsequent argument she confronted the aggressors and demanded respect for her son.
Images of social media showed an attacker who bumped Foden's mother Backstage.
Foden was subjected to a series of obscenities, including a homophobic slur, and was returned to the family's private lounge.
The incident escalated, which made Rowlands shocked in the face. Another member of the FODen group later took a fire extinguisher when they tried to defend the player.
In January 2024, a court heard that Claire described herself as 'as an animal' when she was arrested when she was arrested because she was drunk and disorderly outside a nightclub in Noord -Wales in September, a fine of more than £ 200.
She was offensive to police officers and body-cam images shouted at them to shout 'f *** off' before she was placed in handcuffs and arrested.
In the police interview, Rowlands admitted: 'I started with the police officers. I was a bit AB *** h. '
She also told the police that she was 'like an animal' when she had drunk.
She said: 'I don't drink often, but when I do that, I will make time. I'm like an animal. '
During the hearing to the Landudno Magistrates Court, PC Stephen Award said that she “stumbled with her speech and her eyes glazem.”
She was fined £ 100, with £ 85 persecution and a supplement of £ 40 that had previously admitted to be drunk and disorderly in a public place.
The footballer's mother had enjoyed a night out with friends and ended up with the downing of shots of Wodka and Tequila before she showed off her 'party trick' to add a man's hat, it was told that the magistrates of Llandudno Magistraten was told.
The night started when she was invited for a caravan with two of her friends as a postponement of care for her youngest son, who is disabled and needs care 24 hours a day.
She said to the court: 'The plan was just to go out, to laugh, let us down and enjoy her. We went to the caravan, had a few cans, washed our hair and were all dressed. '
The group went to a bar on the caravan site and 'had some fun, what Karaoke do and let all the old people dance on Motown'.
The group later went to Sunny's in the city – followed by the adjacent nightclub Bentley's – where Rowlands said she drank shots from Tequila and Vodka before she was asked to camp out that accused her of attacking someone.
Magistrates were shown CCTV images of the club who showed that Rowlands hit a baseball cap from Paul Shortman's head and then tried to put it back.
Rowlands told the court that she just had a 'bit of fun' and did not intend to hurt the man when she tried to set up his cap again.
She said: “I was drunk. It was just a bit fun, a little chat. I just couldn't believe that I could get into trouble because I had abolished someone's cap. It is my party trick that eliminates a person's cap and turns it on again.
“I meant no damage or to hurt him and you can see that on the video. It was just a bit of a chat that was taken in the wrong direction. '
Last November, the festive -loving Claire Buren Van Streek arrived with a deafening fireworks party of two hours compared to displays at 'Sydney Harbor Bridge of Disneyland' in the backyard of her house in Leafy Cheshire.
Residents in the chic lane in Prestbury had to calm terrible pets and babies when the 'display standard' started pyrotechnics and claimed that they were not a warning by Claire for the event that lasted from 6 pm to 8 pm.
One, who lives close by, said: 'It must have cost thousands.
'They would not have looked out at the New Year's Eve celebrations in the Sydney Harbor Bridge or in Disneyland!
'Not that the neighbors were impressed. Most were worried about their pets. '
Claire moved to the £ 3.5 million mansion purchased by her Manchester City and England star Son Phil in 2018. He lives in another real estate not far away.
An irritated neighbor said: 'There was no prior notice or warning, which caused enormous need for dogs and babies of residents.
“In response, the local population again wrote an open letter in which the antics of the Fodens were hit and the effect it has on our lives.”
