No other details but they make it sound like something interesting.

Some speculation in the comments that the Sheikh may be coming, which would of course be great but I suppose it could equally be something naff

LOL I don't think even Peter Swales would have introduced a new manager 15 mins before the current manager takes on a Quarter Final match.

No doubt it will be some Garry Cock-Up marketing campaign related to Christmas sales. :-)

Way Man....It's True. I reckon he's gonna be a massive signing for years to come. We're going to be eating Burrito's, and Taco's and all sorts of Mexican shit to honour him!

I can't see that as that is already on the OS so why would they be coy about it. The Sheikh being in the house is the most obvious answer but not sure why he'd wait till a freezing cold mid week game to turn up regardless of the oppo.

Maybe they are going to show some "hilarious" Xmas video on the big screens

I remember seeing 'Cleopatra' performing before kickoff at Maine Road once upon a time. Perhaps it's something of similar ilk.

Let's hope none of the X-Factor people are City fans!

Susan Boyle live on the pitch?

Think you're seeing a bit too much honestly though Irby. I think they just wanted everyone in and seated as it's a 7.45 job, and not faffing about.

They had her at Celtic a couple of weeks back, how embarrassing!

Don't think you're reading enough into it John ;o)

"Get to your seats for 7.30pm tonight...we're not saying anymore than that!" doesn't sound like a don't be late message
