Serious here mate. But have you considered doing a book using your piccies, some of the narrative on here and perhaps a proper writer helping out.
I think it would be a superb project to do and something many blues would be really interested in.

Get Gary James involved and that's a winner. A history of the building of the academy.
((I think Rascal and I should get a free copy for the idea ))
If only people would have been interested in the thousands of pictures i took of Maine Roads demolition (3 times a week, every week, for over 6 months)...
In reality about 50 people max would buy these books :(

Interested by the branding on that sign. The Cityzens logo appears part of a set. We now have City football. I wonder what might be next, City shopping, City accommodation, etc etc?
Thanks for all the pics JRB, can't wait to see it live on Monday

Cook mentioned the way they picked up on the 'City' branding which had already been put in place when he made the presentation. New York and Melbourne have both pushed the City branding and I imagine it will continue apace.

Not what I planned to post.
One to keep an eye out on. The people/company behind the latest aerial shots of the training academy and south stand expansion. Their website isn't live yet, but they have a Facebook page that is live.
Photomerged some of their pictures.

yes i know there was, i'm quoted in it, and he didn't sell many, and to be honest over half of his book is photos of residents in their shops and fans in homes, rather than showing continuing changes to the stands...
I just meant i have thousands, in detail, that show almost daily changes to the same spots, etc etc, from a fans perspective - like jrb but in reverse (ie coming down, not going up) - my point still stands that a book on building the academy would sell about 50 - ask Gary, he'd tell you that if he was being honest.
Seeing something with 80 years of history and memories coming down was much more interesting than watching something new go up - yet books didn;t sell on that, that was my point.... (and i'm not knocking this thread - i like seeing the pics, but i'm a geek like you guys so we're all into this kind of thing!, i still stand that a book isn't viable, but he could knock one up on photobox or lulu and just sell it at cost to you guys) (but books with mostly photos are very expensive to make)
