Adam Keyworth (prestwichblue92, @adamkeyworth on Twitter) is running the project to have an advert placed in La Gazzetta Dello Sport in response to Mancini's advert in the MEN from the City fans.
He now has an image and is waiting on a quote from La Gazzetta.
The message will be:
Il Blue non si lascia piu
You never leave the Blues
For all intents and purposes; once a blue, always a blue, which unfortunately doesn't meaningfully translate into Italian.
Hoping to be in Monday or Tuesday's paper.
Details of how to donate through Paypal to follow.

Henry Winter of the Telegraph tweeted this earlier:
After Mancini's MEN 'grazie', some #mcfc fans discussing taking out an ad in @Gazzetta_it to thank Mancini. Great idea.
I presumed he'd seen a thread on here but it would appear not.
I suppose it's possible he could have just spoken to a few City fans but it makes more sense that he'd have seen it on a forum (or similar).
Anyone know where he got his information from?
For what it's worth, I think it's a great idea.
Mate that translation isn't correct, it translates to 'The blue you never leave anymore' It should be;
I blu non gli lasci mai

Not my translation, in fact, the whole thing's nothing to do with me really, I'm just keeping bluemoon updated as I started a thread based on something Henry Winter posted on Twitter and since the details came out plenty of posters have taken an interest.
The lad running it is Adam Keyworth, username prestwichblue92, he said he got the translation from Italian journalists. I suggest you pm him though.

We can sort that later on, for now let's hope Gazzetta don't gazump us here.

BillyShears said:I have to say, this thread and the response from Blues wanting to take out an ad in gazetta has made me feel bad about what i said about mancini's ad. i think this is a really cool and classy thing to do which shows i shouldn't have been such a cynical twat about mancini doing it.
TFC said:I'll get jumped on for this but who gives a fuck. He will get his name sang loudly and proudly all game tomorrow. He's a multi millionaire partially due to Manchester City. Job done.
There's a lot of emotion running high due to the uncertainty which is inevitable when transitioning to a new manager. I'm looking forward to the transfer window and a clean slate next season. We will say goodbye to this season tomorrow and our former manager.BillyShears said:I have to say, this thread and the response from Blues wanting to take out an ad in gazetta has made me feel bad about what i said about mancini's ad. i think this is a really cool and classy thing to do which shows i shouldn't have been such a cynical twat about mancini doing it.
