On this day that we experience an actual blue moon, it seems appropriate to take a moment to thank Ric and all the Mods for all the work they do.. Thanks one and all for this forum and for building an online community that is as fun as the Kippax, and without having to get the back of our legs...

I'm watching the NHL playoffs. Really entertaining stuff this year. It got me thinking about how footy would be different with a playoff system. Top 4 go into a playoff. 1 vs 4, 2 vs 3, winner for title.. Best of 3 games, with the top ranked team getting home ground advantage. The playoffs...

Amusing LOTR insults aside, I'm wondering what we can expect from United now that Moyes is in charge. I associate United's play with flying wingers and a "we'll score more than you" mentality. Whereas I associate Moyes' teams with physical central midfield play and "you'll score less than us."...

Anyone have any great tips for getting over jetlag? I'm landing in Manchester on Saturday morning after a flight over from Texas, and want to be in top shape by the time the Barnsley game kicks off. I'm thinking that copious quantities of beer in various local boozers will shock my liver into...

Hey. I'm going to be visiting Manchester from Austin with my wife over New Year (listen honey, Manchester is much better than a beach... we'll be warmed by the singing on the terraces). I'm looking for fun ideas for New Year's eve. Be great if we could meet up with some other blues. We'll be...

vs Salzburg. Fado Pub on 4th Street. 3pm kickoff. I'll be there at 2:30pm. Be there or be red! Only applies to self-described fans of Manchester City living within a 75 mile radius of the intersection of Congress Avenue and 6th Street in Austin, without medical restrictions on travel and...

Fado Pub in downtown Austin. First round on me. And every other round if we win. 9:30 am. Be there or be red.

I'll be at Fado.... Anyone else coming? Any other Texas blues? Make a night of it on Sixth Street the night before?

I just added my comment to ESPN's season preview of our great team. I'd encourage you to do the same. We need to hold journalists accountable for accuracy. And address taking lazy pot shots at us. <a class="postlink"...

I met Garry Cook in London last night, and spent an hour over drinks talking about City. I've had the good fortune in my life to meet and work with some of the top CEOs in the World. Coca Cola, UPS, Ritz Carlton, Dell... along with the head of the FBI, President Jimmy Carter, and various movie...

I'm visiting NYC and was wanting to find a good place to watch the game. I heard that some City fans go to Mad Hatters. Anyone going?

I don't rate him as a manager, but I thought he was good in Allo Allo and Mall Cop.

Apologies if this is posted elsewhere, I couldn't find it. ESPN Soccernet is running a poll on its homepage: "Is Adebayor more trouble than he's worth?" http://soccernet.espn.go.com/?cc=5901 ESPN attracts a ton of Arse and Manure fans who slam City at every opportunity in the forums. I voted...

If you wonder who we make fun of in America..... http://peopleofwalmart.com/ Enjoy!

I'm planning to trip to England in September and will catch as many City games as I can. I also love to golf. Are there any courses around Manchester that anyone would recommend? Where does Mark Hughes play? Do any City players play golf, and if so, where?

Hi. I haven't been back to Manchester since I came back for the last games at Maine Road. I'm coming in September and can make the West Ham game. I'm bringing my American wife to see her first game. I could really use some advice. Can someone recommend a decent hotel? I travel a lot on...

After supporting City for nearly 40 years.... Can I just say that even if we signed nobody else at all, I'm bloody thrilled at our squad and ready for the next year. I think we'll be great. The talent at every position is so incredible compared to anything I've ever known in a lifetime of...

Aren't we set up front now? Where's the talk of strengthening our back line?

Any Texas Blues who might be up for a trip to Dallas to watch the youth team in action?

I'm reading the bile and contempt in "red cafe" with interest. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but didn't George Best skip out on Manure for far less money, and for some US team, not even a real football league. We're talking about Kaka playing in the most competitive league, against said Manure...
