I know its not really a City book but dont fucking bother getting Robbie Fowlers book, its written in scouse.

Id like to read Goaters but i can never find it in the shops.

Goaters is a good read as are most of the ex players to be honest

Trautmann the biography, by Alan Rowlands.

Best City related book I've read.

Is there anyway on the new site to trawl old posts? As there were loads of threads on there about City books.

Colin Schindler's Manchester United Ruined My Life is great - even if he has now cut ties with us! Colin Bell's Reluctant Hero is good, insight into our greatest ever. Down Among the Dead Men with Manchester City is also not bad - a collection of articles, stories and anecdotes from when we were in Division Two.

Blue Blood by Mickey Doyle is a decent enough read.
