The last question... if it was a choice between Maine Road how it looked from 1923-1950s then I’d choose that, but Maine Road by the time we left in 2003 had been ruined.

Done. Anybody else just call it City's ground?

Yep that's what I put... I'm off to City is the line.

Thanks. So before it was called the Etihad, did City fans not call it the City of Manchester Stadium?

Never.

No, maybe the CoMS in text for short but never heard it called that full name by anyone

No, not many at all. The most common name was Eastlands - I'm pretty sure it was widely used by the media too. The Blue Camp was used by a few - a take on Barcelona 's stadium (Barca were our first opponents too).

Thanks, haha I like the blue camp name!
