A reply to Mancini's MEN advert in La Gazzetta Dello Sport

Sent mine.

A great idea. And a huge thank you to all who have worked to achieve it.

No doubt a bit of politics behind Bobby's page. I am sad to see him go and will be ever grateful for what has been achieved under his management.
 
From the Gazetta the translation is funny but I'm gutted he's gone, hope we can do this for him and then move on like we know we should

Manchester City, the fans want to buy page of the Official to greet Mancini
Milan, May 19, 2013
Proponents of the Sky Blues would like to thank the coach sacked which has not been granted the lap of honor: for them a special rate. And for those who want to contribute to a public subscription

the Manchester City fans want to write the story, and do it in the literal sense of the word "write". Until now it was aware of thanks through a newspaper page only by players or coaches: the latest example that of Roberto Mancini, last Monday raised by the Distributor without even the possibility of a lap of honor. And by the act of Mancinelli was born a story that could be beautiful.

HELLO AND GOODBYE - The story begins last Saturday morning, when the people of Manchester - and by extension, the City fans - browse the most popular edition of the local newspaper, the Manchester Evening News, finding a page from their purchased which touches the heart in simplicity and it must be said also in the power of the image: "Fans of Manchester City, 3 years unforgettable. You will always be in my heart. Hello." Signed, Roberto Mancini, with lots of photos of Mancinelli that greets fans background, and camp in the foreground three trophies raised by the Blues of Manchester, just to remind those who are too fleeting memory of those who finished a fast 44 years from the title. A symbolic lap of honor to greet the fans who have loved and particularly attached to their symbols. A final round of the field in the face of those who decided to wrap up the story six days before the end of the season, probably missing something in terms of style.

NOW VIRAL - Pages buy newspapers from coaches or players who leave are seen occasionally in Italy, but it is a rarity in England. So this gesture is very striking, and many. Just a fan to start the fever: buy the newspaper early Saturday morning, leafing on the couch at home sees the page Mancinelli: is a picture of the newspaper lying on the same sofa, and tweets. The image begins to be ritwittata everywhere in England, and then across the border. Admiring comments of the City fans, fans opponents of British journalists. As long as someone has an idea: "Let us also." A fan known among those in the City on the net, Adam Keyworth, launched the idea to take the pulse: how about if we comprassimo a page in Italy to thank Bobby Manc? Only positive feedback, it activates the machine.

MANCHESTER CALL, THE OFFICIAL SAYS - Fans choose the Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper as ideal to convey their greetings and organizational machine part. The Official responds positively, offering a special rate for a newspaper page, suitable for a popular initiative so special, in line with the philosophy of "The football we want," the laboratory of ideas and passion that the Journal has been promoting in recent weeks to revive the Italian football.

The FINAL ACT - The end result is a popular subscription launched for all City fans: anyone who wanted to participate in thanksgiving for the Mancinelli can go to paypal.com and make an offer addressed to GrazieManciniFund@gmail.com.

O.P have you asked any other mcfc forums?

I'm not very acquainted with other forums, can anyone help?

I've just created an account on mancityfans.net but I have to wait for an administrator to activate it.

There is a mention of our response in the thread discussing Mancini's original advert already on the forum but it'd be good to get a separate thread on there too.
