Thaksin Shinawatra clearly thought it was a good idea when he ordered a 'lucky' magic crystal ball to be buried at Eastlands but it hasn't paid off at Manchester City.

The former City owner had the ball, along with porcelain elephants which are considered as symbols of wisdom, put at various places underneath the playing surface to 'energise the players' and create 'harmony' at the stadium in 2008.

But Thaksin's feng shui has done little to improve City's 'luck' and they were dug up by the club as part of drainage improvements earlier this week.
