It was the best bit now I think of it. Marr though, just brilliant.
Exeter Blue I am here said:Didsbury Dave said:Gary James said:Well done City for an excellent night. I thought Johnny Marr was incredible and Jason Manford was excellent. Loved the entire event. I was away last year when it was on so can't compare, but did think this was great. I thought Frank Lampard looked a bit embarrassed when Jason introduced the Champions, but I also wondered what he made of it all. I can't imagine any event at Chelsea matching this for prestige etc. noticed Ferran at the side of the stage loving the old Smiths tracks as well!
Oh god. Please don't tell me our senior execs were bobbing along like prince Charles at a jubilee concert? I'm glad I didn't see that.
Most of the players and staff had fucked off by that point DD, and they had us huddled forward around the stage for Johnny Marr, so if Ferran was dancing and grinning with a cheese factor of 10, very few would have seen it. Did you know Johnny Marr was on City's books as a 14 year old winger by the way (according to Dennis Tueart)? Thought overall the event was a triumph. Very few clubs out there with the requisite mix of glitz, local support and self deprecation to pull it off!

Not quite! Marr was offered a school boy trial but he failed to turn up, preferring to spend his time playing the guitar than kicking a ball.

Was it not for Notts Forest (I know people say you can't call them that any more but everyone did for decades so why not?)?
