Inside Eastlands - home of City's slickers

Thought this was a good read.

Especially liked the bit about Dixon getting all excited when looking around the ground, he really is one of us!

After the show, we were given an insight City's determination to win everything this season. When the Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan found out that the award for 'Best Press Experience' had gone to Arsenal for the last few years, he decided it was time to have a little sheikh-up of the City facilities. The press room wasn't bad before but now you have a spectacular little hideaway where the Yorkshire puddings are four inches high and you can eat your way through a selection of muffins and fine cream cakes.


Love that paragraph, it speaks volumes. Our owners want the best throughout and if that means ditching the Kiplings for Selfridges Finest so be it.

Maybe a little half time laxative might solve our anti City press problem.

There is quite enough shit emanating from journalists as it is.

Why should we pander to these twats when paying customers can't get a pint and a pie in the 15-minute half time break?

Invite them all into a room to wait for a press call...then lock 'em in and leave them.

And pump a bit of steam in through the air vent. It won't hurt them but it will make them a bit anxious.

Ps. Wish I had seen that Football Focus on saturday, was it any good?
