Signs at the Ground

[warpig]

the guy who put the neons up was a big city fan. he died shortly afterwards when a bus hit the cherry picker he was working off on wilmslow road knocking him to the ground.

The old sign is been replaced by one word that will survive forever.

"Stupendous"

I was there today and the east stand has had all the named banners taken down from the spirals as well. It looks a right state for now as it's left the spirals muddy looking as well. The Colin Bell stand still has the spiral banners (for now) and they have started cladding the plain grey panels that are in between each spiral in blue, and there's a colour photo of us lifting the prem up as well.

I guess when it's all done it'll look great - tons of blue and cracking photos! but i reckon we'll end up with a lot of sponsoring on the spirals and maybe instead of the neon MCFC on both stands they'll put Etihad Stadium.. maybe.

I did take some pics but haven't put them on the comp yet ;)

here's 6 piccies, nothing inspiring but thought i'd take a few quick piccies for here as i was passing on my way to something this afternoon :)

3 of the Colin Bell stand

and 3 of the East stand

about half 3 this afternoon. The blue Kompany East stand one was up on Saturdays match, but the rest is newly changed.

Since these energy saving lightbulbs have been used its just an excuse not to track back.

V funny

Okay, since no one else has said it yet...

1) Mancini out!
2) If Hughes had been given more time, he'd have all the letters working properly by now
3) Why don't we buy some better signs from Barcelona?

(did I miss anything?)

Hughes signs always work better in the second half of the season

Removed the banners featuring the names of season ticket holders from the spirals?
Boo!!!!

(PS can I have the banner with my name on it please)

I sincerely hope it still says Manchester City on the stadium somewhere. It's fair enough that Etihad have their name up, they deserve it for £400m, but the name of the club should be up there somewhere.

How many clubs actually have their name on the stadium?
