Indeed. I believe Niall Quinn belted him once pre season as he thought he was an absolute twat. To think he was too good to play for Manchester City when he had played in poor Everton & Villa teams is quite laughable.

Re: Sergio Aguero Agreed. I remember when we were linked with signing him and I couldn't honestly believe it. My Boss (a City fan) didn't know anything about him but I did as I follow the Spanish League. I remember at the time telling him 'think of Tevez but younger, faster and better...

Agreed. I found that very interesting.

Won't this be the third time we have played Liverpool in the second game in the last 4 years?

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont The pictures/designs and renders shown on here are fantastic. For me the Etihad isn't currently all the striking from the outside apart from when it is lit up at night games. This will change all that.

A very, very good player in his day but by all accounts Steve McMahon was an absolute tosser of a person. Surprised his name hasn't yet been mentioned. I have it on good authority that he thought he was 'too good' to be playing for Manchester City and was very resentful of the club and his time...

Jakob please stick around on Bluemoon. Your posts are excellent. Thank you for the insight.

This has to be next on my list to read. What a day and season that was in our history.

Having met the bloke when he was manager at Newcastle I can honestly say he is one of the nicest people I have ever met in football (and I have met a lot due to a previous job). I was delighted when he got the City job although I was sad it had ended so badly for Big Joe another really nice...

Such a shame no footage of this game exists.

Keith Curle was a quality, quality player. I still remember seeing his debut at Highfield Road like it was yesterday.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont Not mucking about are they?

[/b] Yep I've been for a hair cut at that place. IIRC he's actually called Mr Barber. He's City daft the inside of the shop is a shrine to the club.

I'm with the majority and am really pissed off with this latest effort. I find some of Didsbury Daves comments quite patronizing at best towards people on here. If we don't like it we are entitled to post this opinion surely? As others have posted it's about building and maintain the clubs identity.

He wasn't wrong was he. I too though it a little OTT at the time but I've been happily proved wrong.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont What amazing pictures. Thanks so much for the effort you've taken. Can't wait to see the stadium expansion pictures.

Two truly awful efforts. I'm not quite so bothered about the away shirt but that home one is dreadful. Oh well I haven't had a City shirt now since the FA Cup win and I won't be bothering with either of those that's for sure. Oh and put me down as a fan of the white shorts as well. I moaned...

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont So looking at the pictures posted is the whole of the South Stand Roof coming off?

Yep. Me as well.

And yet those crowds of 17-19k etc were quite high compared to some others in the country at the time. Leeds often had 11-12k for home games, Chelsea pulled regular crowds of around 8,000 and even a Birmingham derby at Villa Park was played infront of around 11,000 at the time. Football had gone...
