We just wanted to update anyone interested that limited positions in our charity games have been extended for bidding until Tue the 18th March (Home 3pm & Away 4pm). So if you haven't signed up for the Football Aid game at The Etihad Stadium yet, why not visit http://www.footballaid.com and take advantage of this last chance to bid to play for The Citizens in 2014!

Hints and Tips:
- New positions could be opened at any time so make sure and keep checking the Manchester City page right up until Tuesday afternoon
- Home positions close at 3pm and Aways close at 4pm
- The Buy Now option is still available for selected positions
- If you've already secured a 1st half 45 min posn it's possible to bid for a 2nd half position and double them up to play the full 90 mins

Thanks in advance if you do choose to support us this season.

Regards

I've been a member for a while now, but don't post for some reason. I do go on Citymancs and Mancityblues regularly and so I'll be using this forum as well from now on ( if nobody objects of course)
I'm an old (63 yesterday) blue, one of those who's seen all the ups and downs since they were little kids getting in for free at half time. I like Pelle very much. Even though his subs are a bit baffling at times, I think our current team is great, but could be improved at the back. I like the new signings Pelle brought in, Yaya and Sergio are my heroes. So is Silva, Ferna and Samir. I think we'll win the league this year AND we'll win at Anfield - if not it'll be through Suarse and Sturridge's diving expertise.
Is it okay for me to start posting then?? Will I do?

I've been reading this board for what feels like forever, but if pressed is actually about 8-9 years. I actually played for Man City as a youth, training at Platt Lane during the clubs demise from the premier league to the third tier of English football. I was at York away but stood in the home end when we hit rock bottom.

I took city on as my team in 1994 due to playing for them, my dads a Dunfermline fan so I'm thankful I didn't follow him in supporting a Scottish team!!

Anyways I've decided to start posting, I have a season ticket in the East stand and am on this site (lurking) almost as much as I'm reading stuff for work.

Put simply Man City is my life, and like life you have to take the highs and lows

Cheers

Gaz

Welcome one and all, good to have you on board and look forward to some decent City talk and banter.

Tameside? Could we narrow that down a little?

First went to Maine Road in 1950 with my dad (I was 5). We were playing Preston. Remember Frank Swift and Tom Finney. We lost! Caught Cityitis then and still got it. Still look good in a sky blue shirt (providing it's at least XXL).

The winky thing always gives it away ;-)

I didn't get to Maine Road until the 70s, when I was born. Been hooked ever since.

I'll be there for what is a very important family City heritage day out. Kath and I, plus my eldest daughter and my 2 young Scottish based grandkids at their very 1st City game.
If anyone spots one old bloke, two women and two very excited youngsters...please come and say hello.
