    Chippy recommendations pre-match, please.

    For tomorrow. A bit fed up with the Levenshulme Bakery, so can anyone recommend a good chippy, please? Driving up from the Midlands, so in via South Manchester, Kingsway route. Anything good nearby?

    The sound of The Kippax...here it is...

    I found a minicassette player... So,... In 1994, 30th April, we stood on The Kippax terrace for the last time, before its demolition. I took along a handheld memo recorder, and captured the crowd. Today, I received an ancient Philips memo player, a minicassette, no less, and after some...

    New City book...please, Blues, lend your support.

    Thanks to Ric for allowing me to post on here. Hello, fellow Blues. Long-standing member on this forum. I am trying to publicise the release of a book I have written; my first, so it is all a bit nerve-racking. It is a book about City, viewed through my eyes over almost sixty years. I’ll try...

    Istanbul trip

    Going to Istanbul in September, 4 days with family for a 60th celebration. Many on here were there recently for some match or other, can't remember which one....erm, did you need a visa? Can't work it out from Google. Might nip out to the Ataturk Stadium on the metro, just to pay homage...

    Early kick-off eating places.

    I got some great advice for Abdul's in Fallowfield when I asked in August. So another game but an earlier kick-off leads me to ask again, please. Any suggestions for maybe breakfast in the South Manchester area? I doubt any kebab place would be open, even in Rusholme.

    Saturday lunch suggestions.

    It's our first trip up in a while, since the pandemic, etc. Same for most, of course. Travelling up from the Midlands, so looking for somewhere to grab some good food pre-match in the south Manchester area, Didsbury, etc. Dirty burger, great deli sandwich sort of thing. Booze not essential but...

    Manchester City Dream Scene Artwork

    Just arrived. We have Team of the Decade coming too. Both 130 cm x 43 cm. City have been so amazing for us for so long, sure, it's not quite wonderful right now (lol), but the memories of these glory years are priceless. Had to be bought. Sergio and Vinnie, our boys, approve. It's magnificent.

    West Ham H

    Once again, the many changes to the fixture list rules us out, but this time for three matches in a row. At least we can make the cup match as it hasn't been tampered with. Really starting to think about the validity of having a Seasoncard, although many Blues have used our tickets (sorry...

    Rags around The Etihad yesterday...odd

    We hung around after the game to let the mobs disperse from the Ashton-bound tram stop. We were stood there on the platform with about twenty other fans in the rain when this small group of knobs came down the stairs on the Piccadilly-bound side, singing a song. I couldn't make out what it was a...

    1970 ECWCF

    Does anyone know why City had 1 substitute and Gornik 3 in that game? Found this on Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970_European_Cup_Winners'_Cup_Final Google throws up no answers.
