@Gary James has posted on here before that, back in the mid-1990s, he was looking for a publisher for what was effectively a proposed City version of Fever Pitch, and received an offer conditional on him focusing the text on the hapless Blues forever flailing in the shadow of their mighty red neighbours. He refused but Shindler didn't, the resulting book being published a year or two later.

I believe that Shindler's book shifted well over 100,000 copies, making it comfortably the biggest selling City book (if you can class it as that) of the lot.

Interesting, I didn't know any of that.

At the time I felt it was a decent read, probably due to the lack of alternatives and being glad to read anything about City. However, with how things have played out over the last 20 years, I'm sure reading it now would seem very different. I imagine he'd come across as a right sad dickhead.

United player illustrated as strong, pushing away little City.

Am I reading too much into it? Or another example of the bastards being out to get us?!

Where's that from as its been doctored. The only complaint with the real version is Fish Fingers is bigger than Phil. (And before someone jumps down my throat, I'm not complaining)

Edit: I can see its the Manc. Have they altered it ?

They didn't specify that when tickets went on sale or that there would be another match the following day featuring United v Real Madrid.
Many of the 600 billion fans less than impressed.
