As comparable to some of the freaks on here Id say they scrub up well.

Simon Curtis is well worthy of reading - his City blog "Down the Kippax Steps" is something worthy of your time, as Im sure his contributions on the City website will be too.

I did follow him on twitter and he did come across as quite an odd bloke, quite needy of the attention of the supporters of his blog as he tended to retweet any praise he got. He had a hissy fit the other week when he suddenly lost a lot of followers, stating how it didn't bother him ... again and again .... I did the only thing I could, and stopped following him immediately.

Haha, about right that.

I have to confess I made a play for the whole City Blogger thing (i'd imagine a few of us here did/I'm not bitter) but I obviously fell short, I boasted in my application about posting on here which I can only think was the nail in the coffin.

With hindsight, based on the others who got the gig, I should have said (well fabricated) a back story that I was an ex pat season ticket holding journo who travels to games each week from east germany by hitchhiking with romanian gypsys while practicing my fluent 9 languages, one being shyriiwook, the other 8 being variants on bullshit.

That would have nailed it for sure... I just didn't lay on a interesting enough back story in my application... *sigh* and there I was thinking it was about blogging football... ;D

Good luck to the lads/lasses who got the gig though, I'm sure it will be an intriguing read!

The first City blog post is up, courtesy of Victoria and her banana
http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Features/2013/August/City-Blogger-Victoria-I

Darryl, one of the other official bloggers, is a top bloke from the Toronto Blues where I am now living. He is about to set off an a round-the-world tour of City Official Supporters Clubs and is writing a book about it. He has an indiegogo website where you can essentially fund the project by pre-ordering the book or other treats - I'm not going to post the link before getting permission from the guys on here but you can find it through his twitter handle @DarrylWebster
