I tried watching it. Managed about 30 mins then called it a night. Nothing against the lads in the film or City for making it; just couldn't stomach watching Adebayour, Bellamy and Hugheselessfuckingtwat - in fact him in particular, obviously.
Why not? They were all big parts in getting to where the club is today.
If I'd gotten round to watching it at the time, I'm sure I would have thought it great. I also realise this is part of our journey but the point for me, even in such a short space of time, the City in that film is a million miles to the City we are now.
Bellamy, whilst giving his all for us was never (initially) wanted by the fans - trawl back and you'll see much wailing and gnashing of teeth at his signing. To be fair though, he did give us 100% but then lost it under Bob.
Adebayour, whilst memorable for THAT celebration, lived up to his billing (or even the warning we got from Arsenal fans about what a twat he is) by slating City - despite us STILL paying his wages.
And Hughes? Well that's been done to death.
I also assume Tevez gets time on there too. I can't look at the **** anymore after all the shenanigans and weasel words.
What got us to where we are today is Mancini fucking all three of those off and bringing in more quality players.
So, yeah in and of its time I suppose and like I say, no disrespect to the lads in it, but not something I wanna watch.
