Fot those who were in 2 minds of going!
Due to essential maintenance and the upgrading of our online ticket office, which has restricted the purchase of seats for tomorrow’s Carling Cup tie with Fulham (8pm), we have pegged prices for the match at their original levels.
Therefore, until 5pm tomorrow, Adult Seasoncard holders will pay £15 for a seat. After 5pm all Adults will pay £20. Fans aged 16-21 and over 65s will pay £10 and under 16s £5.
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".
The Future's Bright, The Future's Blue!!!

I'll be there. Be interesting to see who Hughes picks.
I go for:
Given
Zabaleta Toure Lescott Bridge
Weiss De Jong Barry Petrov
Bellamy Tevez
Subs.
Taylor, Vidal, Sylvinho, Richards, SWP, Ireland, Ball.
Important that we win. Richards & Ireland have not been at their best over the past few games so I would rest them and remind them the standards are now much higher than last season, if they need reminding!
The above team IMO should be strong in defence and they need to play games together as a unit, as well as the team overall. We may lack creativity in the centre of midfield but both Barry & De Jong can pass a ball. This may give them the opportunity to show it. Weiss & Petrov will prove a danger to most teams with their pace, trickery and desire to impress.
Be good to see Hangeland and how he copes with our attacking threats. Please can we attack on the floor!
If and it is a big if, we are comfortable towards the end of the game then I'd like to see Vidal & Ball given a run out for the last 10-15 minutes just for the experience.
