Maybe we should bring this back, to stop people moaning about early leavers.
Have a sit-in to protest about the PL and biased refs.

A time when the media at least pretended to have our back. In reality, cynical and naked financial interest

Remember before Franny came on the scene we all used to want Rodney Marsh in to save us from Swales

It all seemed a great idea to replace Swales with Lee.
Unfortunately the first thing that Lee did was to replace the excellent Brian Horton with (and after all we've got) Alan Ball!

The Mirror pissed me off as they basically hijacked the protests by handing out pro Franny posters with the Mirror logo prominent - therefore other newspapers didn't show very many pictures of what was going.on to avoid advertising their rivals.
I really despised them using City fans to further their cause and not our cause.

Anorak in me thinks these images (especially the Swales one) are of a section of a page in 1 of my books. I used to have the badge and the sticker on my desk at work then took them down for use in Manchester The Greatest City in 1997.

It was about the only time the tabloids tried to jump on a City fan bandwagon. It was all about selling their papers while we had the demos, protests, abuse etc.

Takin the piss.
I was at that game - I also remeber a candellight vigil on the Kippax - was that the same game? Some guys going round with a box full of candles, of course you lit one and held it up and you got hot wax dripping down your arm. Brilliant.
