I was standing on Portland Street the Bus stopped a few yards away from me, uploading a video right now, it was packed as fuck and loud as hell, does not come across that loud on the Video though I think.

Bonus: met Paul Lake at Picadilly and he was kind enough to have a picture taken with my son and myself! Top bloke!

From the special Radio 5 did on him this year, his sister said he couldn't face doing it last year as he hates being the centre of attention. Bizarre with some of his other behaviour but he is apparently really shy.

Great day, it was a bit soured by that bellend who was presenting asking Lescott about his header. Lescott looked and sounded suitably pissed off, what's the point in going over it again now?

Lads climbing all over House of Fraser / Kendals was great. Manchester is blue!

Got back around an hour ago.

Managed to get in Albert Square straight from work, and then followed the bus around Princess Street, Portland Street, Great Bridgewater Street, Whitworth Street West and Deansgate - the atmosphere was buzzing!

Pics from today are here:

You fucking dancer Mancio! Thought that I'd get glimpses on the evening news.

I'm well over the Bluemoon now.

Oh, thanks City :)

moi?
Beefy, Mate, You really know how to please me and make me blush as well... :-)

Unfortunately, I was the one forced to get just glimpses of that greatness, having to attend my shit in the office.
what I saw really filled my heart with joy and pride: the Blues are truly a very special community of souls.
And what a special touch of class the Club always afford toward the community: that should always spit on the face of everyone blethering about "moneybags"!
on a personal note I was also so glad to understand how emotionally moved Bob looked: I am sure all the Blues are realizing that he's not just a greedy winner but a romantic footballer who sense the special taste of achieving on the hard side. that's the main instance where he differs so much from the Portuguese egomaniac clown.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...


In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!

I was really pissed off last night. In 1965ish, there were 8,000 of us spread strategically around Maine Road when we played Swindon Town...So where the fucl did all that lot come from last night?....bunch of fucling bandwaggoning, glory seekers. Where the fucl were you in 1965?

It was disgusting, the streets were congested by "Johnny Come Latelies", some of whom have only followed City for the last 40 odd years. Kids lifted on shoulders to block my view, teenagers singing lewd songs and swigging alcohol. Thousand upon thousand of newbies since the 70s, 80s, 90, and noughties.

There were people with babies in trolleys and prams, spawning another generation of ticket demanding sprogs and the announcement that our club is now targeting bloody forriners. Not only will these people come from outside the City of Manchester, even from distant places like Royton, Bury, Oldham and Rochdale, we will have people from even further than Yorkshire and Cheshire. It needs sorting out. There will be people wearing blue scarves in places like Holland, Finland, Japan, France, the USfuclinA...even Abu bloody Dhabi. God help us.

Who the fucl do you think you are, coming into my City, clogging up my streets, blocking my view, buying up my tickets, cheering my trophy....GO HOME....STAY AWAY....FUCL OFF!

What a fuckin palarver all that was! Last night. What was wrong with what we used to do.
City get off train,
City fans clap.
Manager lifts trophy.
Crowd sing one verse of "For he;s a jolly good fellow", Throw hats in the air and shake hands.
Then rush like fuck to the picture house to see if you could spot yourself on Pathe News.

No kids or wives, they knew their place, at home cooking the tea.

Sorted.
