It was August 2005. City’s prized asset Shaun Wright-Phillips had just moved to Chelsea for a record incoming fee of £21m and City had replaced him with the ageing Andy Cole and the lightning fast yet erratic Darius Vassell.
The blues had made a decent start to the season, with one draw and a win while [...]

City visit Sunderland on Sunday with a pretty impressive recent record against the Black Cats both home and away.
Since losing their first Premiership meeting at the Stadium of Light in December 2003, City have won the following eight games, scoring 21 times and conceding only three goals during that period. 10 of those goals have [...]

Shaun Wright-Phillips is walking a very thin line with the City supporters. Hailed as a hero on his return from Chelsea last season, his current contract situation could end with the blues fans turning on the diminutive winger.
In 2005, SWP left the club to join Chelsea in a £21m deal which angered loyal blues supporters, [...]

City will travel to Sunderland on Sunday knowing a slip in the North East will give Spurs the edge in the race for fourth place.
The blues recorded a superb win at Chelsea last time out and should be confident of securing another three points at the Stadium of Light. But City need to be aware [...]

I must apologise to readers for there being little activity over the last couple of weeks. I’ve had no internet recently, but hopefully that should change next week when I get myself connected. Last week’s unbelievable victory at Stamford Bridge sets u…

ST Gonzalo Higuain
22 year old, 6ft1, Argentinian / French duel nationality Striker who recently chose to represent Argentina, currently plying his trade at Real Madrid but is currently stalling on new contract offers unhappy that they are no where near acceptable.
In my opinion Higuain would make the perfect partner for Carlitos Tevez.

City 4 Chelsea 2 The story of fired up Englishmen, a livewire Welshman and an Argentine masterpiece.

Our City players were inevitably fighting for Wayne Bridge for sure but they did the shirt and club they play for proud, I dont know about you but I long for the day when we can do away with the term ‘Typical City’.

Obviously every football club have ‘Typical’ moments,

Is Roberto Mancini the right manager for Manchester City FC and can he get us there?

In terms of stability I’d say yes he is the right manager and lets face it, we have seen our share of managers over the last thirty odd years now have we not.

I also believe he can get us into the Champions League with the squad we have, I believe if we fail it is on the heads of under

Think about where we Manchester City were last season and the season before last, think about our incomplete squads of the same seasons past and think about the false hope turned almost disaster of a picture Sven Eriksson gifted us with.

Then think about where we are right now and look at how far we have come.

We have a very strong and almost, almost complete squad just

I really wish Stoke would be relegated. Not because of the way they play, just because I am sick of the sight of them and the players must be too.

But I’m amazed that, given the problems that we had against them in the FA Cup tie that we weren’t more on the ball for the league game on Tuesday. At times, we were like a newly promoted side

City and Liverpool played out a dour goalless draw at Eastlands and the result has allowed Spurs to steal in and take fourth place in the Premier League this evening.
Missing Carlos Tevez and Patrick Vieira, manager Roberto Mancini decided to play with Emmanuel Adebayor as the loan striker with former Liverpool striker Craig Bellamy on [...]

City face Liverpool hoping to preserve their unbeaten home record and avoid making at a Merseyside double weekend.
United lost 3-1 at Everton on Saturday and Roberto Mancini will be hoping City fair better against the scousers and put some clear distance between the two as the race for fourth place hots up.
The City manager believes [...]

Liverpool visit Eastlands in a clash that may have a significant bearing in the race to finish fourth in the Premier League.
The Merseysiders are classed as one of the ‘big four’ but their supporters have endured a long and difficult season which has not been helped by constant speculation surrounding Rafa Benitez’ future and rumours [...]

This is what ultimately seperates the great football player from the shallow and narrow football player.

You have the player who will join a club no matter the history or status, then you have the player who only joins a club because they are established winners with glorious history. (not saying theres anything wrong with wanting instant success but I prefer to work for my

Stephen Ireland could get the chance to regain some of his form when City entertain Liverpool on Sunday.
Ireland was an unused sub for Tuesday’s clash with Stoke with Patrick Vieira getting the nod to play alongside Gareth Barry and Nigel de Jong. But the former Arsenal man is facing a three match suspension, Ireland may [...]

City hope to hold onto fourth place, gained after a 1-1 draw at Stoke on Tuesday, but face Liverpool at Eastlands, a team that City don’t hold a good record against.
The likely outcome of Sunday’s match is a draw, considering seven of the twelve Premiership meetings between the two have ended that way. Of the [...]

For many many years Manchester City FC and our fans have had to accept getting the short end of the stick, you could not count the amount of decisions against Manchester City FC with even the most intelligent computer in the world at your disposal.

Since I took my very first breath, City fans have had to accept the fact we were always going to get robbed more often than not

City moved into the top four when a Gareth Barry strike cancelled out a Glen Whelan goal to give City a share of the Spoils at The Britannia Stadium.
The home side also had Abdoulaye Faye sent off for a professional foul on Emmanuel Adebayor but the blues still couldn’t capitalise with an extra man and [...]

Last Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Stoke in the FA Cup, and tonight’s 1-1 draw – also against Stoke – in the League, confirms that our recent slump in form is indeed a slump and not a flitting aberration. The upturn in performance that inevitably f…

There was an old saying in the league years ago; If you win your home games, draw your away games you’ll win the league. It was an adage that rung true and it was a standard that every team that was serious about winning the championship strived to achieve.
Unfortunately in today’s game it no longer [...]
