Wasn't there a competition or something for the design?

I thought there was to be a large concrete ball on the centre spot<br /><br />-- Sun Mar 27, 2011 11:06 pm --<br /><br />

The school used and the 'home' pitches were my former school. I even scored from a kick off on one of the pitches!!!

Which school was it?

The actor who plays him is a rag. Found him on facebook the other night after I heard the rumour. John McKenzie I think he's called. He's got a bunch of '35 years' jokes in his pictures.

Not sure if I could say the same line and keep a straight face at the end if the story line was reversed...
'What's better than playing for man city son?'

The School was Wright Robinson in higher Openshaw. There was some great shots of the old Manchester landmarks, Queens Park Cemetry in Harpurhey, Victoria Square in Ancoats and the sky line of the CIS building from Red bank and not forgeting the Fairfield pub near Piccadilly station.

Robert Carlyle is one of only a handful of actors who have portrayed both a City legend and Adolf Hitler on film.
