something like that...there is no way they will come close to filling that ground...unless they start winning and playing well!

4) The Maine Road stadium took just 4 months to build and cost a measly £100,000. The initial capacity was 70,000 with plans to extend it to 120,000. This never happened, (just goes to show that even in the 1920's they thought they were more massive than they really are). The old ground at Hyde Road was redeveloped into a bus skidpan for training bus drivers how to really scare passengers, and was later home to the Manchester Police helicopter. It is now derelict land, clearly visible from the Manchester - Stockport train line.
3) The correct pronunciation of the name "Tueart" is "Twat"
10) Man City were champions in 36/37. The same squad was relegated the following season.
According to a press conference, Man City were appointing a "big name manager with a proven track record". Imagine everyone's surprise when Alan Ball popped out from behind a (very small) screen.
