heres a snippet from the blog

Just had a conversation with a very excited Armani. He has just finished distributing all the kit etc. Said it was a difficult task but has now been done so successfully. He said that the whole of Freetown has gone Man City mad and everywhere the bus goes people gather round.

All the lads that were involved in this are top blues and most of them drink in the Townley. Armani who runs the City supporters branch in Sierra Leone is coming over to England for a month in november and no doubt will make an appearance in the Townley at the home games. There are seven short videos which will appear on the official site over the next week.
