    Who Else Has Been to All 3 European Finals?

    I was in Vienna in 1970 (it took about three days for my clothes to dry out after the deluge!). I was in Porto two years ago. A great trip, although I had my wallet stolen, paid 385 quid for a ticket, and Pep fcuked it up! I'll be in Istanbul from Thursday lunchtime. How many more of us will...

    Unionistas de Salamanca

    Daniel Storey, who wrote that lovely piece about Raheem Sterling the other day, has just published this on the BBC Sports page: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48296119 Both my brother and I are big City fans, and some of you will know me from my trips over to the Etihad or European away...

    A Tribute to Manuel Pellegrini?

    We've all had our moans about his tactics, but this charming man cannot be allowed to leave our club without a well-deserved tribute of some kind, even if it's just some sort of mosaic at Wembley. I'm sure the 1894 Group will come up with ideas. Gracias, Manuel!

    Atlético Madrid v City (UEFA Youth League)

    Couldn't see another thread on this. I might drive down from Salamanca for the game (quarter final, one leg only) next Wednesday. Kick off at 20.00 (Spanish time, of course) in Estadio Cerro del Espino, Majadahonda, North Madrid. I've only just got back from Manchester after the home game...

    Our 'Second' Team

    Don't you reckon that most of these players would get a game at many other clubs? Pantilimon Richards Lescott García Kolarov Milner Barry Nasri Rodwell Jovetic Negredo This is, of course, presuming that our 'first' eleven would be: Hart Zabaleta Kompany Nastasic Clichy Navas Fernandinho Yaya...

    Audi Cup in Munich

    It's probably the wrong day to open a new thread on here, but . . . Who's going? I've just reserved my flights from and to Madrid. Pellegrini's first trophy for City?

    Yaya/Kolo Song at Wembley?

    It would be class if we could get 30,000 plus City fans doing this on Sunday. Let's get it going!

    End of the World Next Week

    According to the Mayan calendar, it's due to take place on December 21. My question is whether the FA will blame City for it when it takes place. I mean, for goodness sake, they've charged us with practically everything else since last Sunday!

    Bored? Try This!

    OK, so all we've been doing for the last two and a half weeks is watching re-runs of that goal. Anyway, here's a little teaser for all you anoraks out there in Bluemoon land: For how many minutes were City actually behind in League games last season? Bear in mind that 38 league games last for...

    City Players: National Team Captains

    David Silva captained Spain the second half of their friendly against South Korea yesterday, keeping the armband even when Iker Casillas came on as a substitute for Pepe Reina. Gareth Barry also captained England (while he was on the pitch) last weekend against Norway. Vincent Kompany will no...

    David Silva Today

    I think he was back to his best today. Great performance from Merlin.

    Articulate Footballers?

    This may belong to another sub-forum, but I think we have to admit that our captain comes across as the most intelligent footballer currently involved in English football, either as a player/manager or a TV pundit. Vincent Kompany is Belgian, of Congolese origin, yet he puts to shame the vast...

    'Selling' Manchester

    It makes you wonder, when you read everything that has been spouted on these pages, on the radio, on Sky Sports and in the press, whether a lot of the players we've been linked with have a problem with moving to Manchester. Unfortunately, Carlos Tevez did us no favours when he came out with his...

    Blues in the Stoke End?

    How many blues are there going to be in the East End of Wembley, with the Stoke fans? I reckon there'll be loads. I've managed to swap my ticket with a Stokie, but my brother will be in Block 523. Anyone else?

    Stay for Stoke?

    Seems like they've already accepted that they're gonna lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <a class="postlink" href="http://i51.tinypic.com/dqt0rr.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://i51.tinypic.com/dqt0rr.jpg</a>

    What If?

    A long post, but please be patient and read it to the end. Anyway, just imagine if this had happened (the opposite of what we witnessed): 14 Minutes: Mario Balotelli has a shot well saved by Van der Saar. 14 Minutes: Mario Balotelli skies one over from 2 yards. An incredible miss. Then United...

    "We Hate You, City, We Do!"

    In a very short period of time we've gone from a club that many other supporters had a soft spot for, to becoming everyone's most hated team. And the same goes for the vast majority of the media. Does it really worry you? It's nice to be loved, isn't it? Perhaps we should do a Millwall and...

    Arsenal v Barcelona

    This Champions League clash could be (on paper) an absolute classic, but they will probably cancel each other out with their pretty passing games. An interesting take on last night's defensive display by City would be to compare it with what Athletic Bilbao did in the Spanish Cup first leg game...

    This is Starting to Look Serious

    We've dreamed for more years than I want to remember about having a team (no, make that a squad) who would be able to stand up to anyone. Well now our dreams have come true. There are still a few areas that we need to improve upon, but a lot of people out there are simply having to take us...
