    Qualifiers for the Champions league tonight

    Got a bit noisy up Oxford Rd going to Peters Square. They seem to be giddy about being 'back in the big time'. Bless 'em. It won't last long, of course.

    Songs for the Night Shift

    This weekend is our kid's turn for nights as a paediatrician looking after the sick kids at the Royal Manc, God bless her. I always send her tunes to keep her going until the morning. Last night, her favourite was as below. She likes all things Manc and/or alternative. ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR...

    Kids or Kings for the Cups?

    This is not a Pellers debate. However, in my view, his glaring mistake this season, regardless of what happens now, was to attempt to win four competitions. Now that he has an English trophy on his CV, and we also won the FA Cup recently, I believe that next season should involve prioritising...

    Congrats to Cooky

    A very fine achievement for a 27 year old and under the pressure of captaincy. An impressive individual who seems much under-appreciated by us sport-loving English men and women. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/20622025 Well done, our kid.

    When the white ball returns...

    ...in the first weekend of March, the other 5 of the top 6 will all have had a tougher spell of league games than us. The Africans will be back, spring will be in the air and we'll all have a better idea of where we are. Saturday, 3 March 2012 [subject to Sky schedules and cup games] Blackburn...

    FA Cup in Abu Dhabi [Images and Editorial]

    Forget that lot above, it says 2011 but, apparently, it is not engraved with the club's name until it is about to go back to the FA. City Store in Marina Mall with new away kit, out later in the month. View from Khalidiya Public Beach of Marina Mall. City Store therein. More editorial...

    It's time to give the World Cup Players a rest...

    ...in my humble view. Unless my eyes have finally gone, it was the mighty NDJ that didn't get to Etherington for the equaliser yesterday. And I love Big Nij. Indeed, I was mocked for suggesting many moons ago that he was a world class performer who had a sniff of winnig the World Cup, but, hey...

    Old City Programmes

    As some of you may know, I am planning to emigrate shortly and have a collection of programmes going back to the eighties that I don't want to ship abroad. Any ideas of how to move them on to a deserving home? Cheers.

    Classic City Photographs

    I need some quality black and white images for my bar. Internet searches are not alleviating the situation. All assistance from fellow citizens would be much appreciated. Strange as it may sound, cool and/or topless images are preferred [no, it's not a gay bar, if that's important to you].

    Please stop giving the anti-City/anti-Arab press ammunition

    All the 'Typical City' lot are on the airwaves now [Greeny's lovin' it]. Sentimental drunks in my view. MH wasn't good enough [at present but may improve]. Get over it. I made it clear earlier in the season that if we weren't top four at Xmas he'd be gone. So he is. ADUG never appointed MH...

    Things Ade could do during his FA ban...

    Can he do any press? Is he allowed to attend matches? Can he go on holiday? Personally, I'd get him doing kids' charities and CITC stuff. Great PR and, far more importantly, a fine way to spend your 'gardening leave with a return ticket'.

    What Hour of Music Would Get You Going before the Match?

    In my head, I have the obvious Oasis tracks, Love Will Tear Us Apart, Made of Stone, Pounding, R'n'R & Silver Machine, but not forgetting Boys In Blue, which I happily sang in the queue to leave Level 3 [Oh, to be back on Level 2!]. Anyway, I am missing many more. Any suggestions?

    Thus is essential viewing for bigots and free-thinkers...

    ...as it's an appropriate week to redress the balance. Please watch this.; http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00mk54l/The_Muslim_Tommies/ My [English] Gran, who passed away this summer, served on the gunners in WW2 and, at that time, met my grandfather, who spoke Swahili as an NCO in East...

    Adventures in the East Stand

    Greetings, my Fellow Citizens! I'll get to the adventures in a moment. First, I must apologise for my absence. Business commitments have prevented me from posting for a while but I've nevertheless been entertained by your good words all summer. Sadly, my maternal grandmother passed away in...

    The Rag Text Reply

    Two of my responses thus far today have been as follows. 'Your ref won' let them [the City midfield] tackle. Boring meaningless end of season rubbish.' 'Enjoy your special day win as it may be your last your a while...' Any others?

    Ian Brightwell's goal...

    ...was my best Swamp memory although I know some people who witnessed the DL backheel, just a year or so before my Dad starting taking me to derbies at both places [cheers Uncle Tony]. Anyway, we were standing a few steps up on the Scoreboard End to the left of the goal when IB struck a thirty...
