Many thanks for the excellent photos, as always.

I do have a question for you though... After Aguero's 93:20 minute title winner, how could you ever leave a City match, before the final whistle is blown?! City is one of the teams that scores the most last-minutes goals... and some of the best City photos are often taken just after the match is over.

Sorry for being selfishly greedy, but I enjoy your photo coverage so much, that it leaves me wishing that you were able to take photos of City's away matchs, too!

I use a stop watch and I normally get up and move 20 seconds before the added time is up but alas the sub of Yaya and his sprint off added more time. The first time I have missed anything for years!!!.Alas I dont have enough points for the away games

Have you ever applied to the City media for a press pass, to cover the away matches?... Let them know that you have been covering City matches for all these many years & published your book. It is to City's advantage, to have you chronicle the team's away games, as well.

Your coverage has been unique & incredibly helpful... More importantly, your photos do not usually just replicate what Sharon Latham & the other City photographers have published. Your photos of the match highlights usually capture the most controversial or key moments of the match. Unlike the other photographers, you add your own match commentary & reviews.

I'm always grateful for your kindness & generosity, in sharing your photos with us here.
So, I hope that in the future, you will also be able to capture the away matches, with the help & approval of the City media team.

Thanks again for posting the pictures.

One thing I'v wondered over the years though is why you're allowed to do this? Don't get me wrong, I don't care. But aren't you breaking the rules by taking all these photos, over and over again?

I guess you haven't noticed that the vast majority of the football audiences & even the players on the bench are now photographing & videotaping portions of each & every match!... And the clubs are now encouraging all of us to share our own photos & comments with the club's Twitter, Facebook & Instagram accounts!

Yeah but there's one thing taking the odd snap, it's something completely different to systematically photograph every game. Anyway, I don't care, I enjoy these threads as much as the next fellow.

So you're allowed to take a camera in, but you only have a quota of shots you can take? That sounds totally enforceable...

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. You got me pegged.
