This is what’s left of Maine Road today… Manchester City’s old centre circle still preserved in the middle of a housing estate. Football history never really disappears 👏

All for respect & good manners - not enough of either anywhere. But….. may I respectfully suggest that if you don’t want your badge walked on, don’t paint it on the floor where people walk. Football really is overdoing (fake?) upset at the smallest things

Let’s be honest here. They sold their allocation as they were playing us. We didnt, as we were playing them. Well that and we were there last month. There again next month, oh and have been 30 odd times in the last 15 years. 👍 You count empty seats, we count trophies 😎 🍻

If you put Wembley in the Manchester...Man City would sell out every Wembley appearance they have made ....If you put Wembley in the North...Arsenal wouldn't sell out every visit (30+ times City) ..Why ? Because Arsenal away following as always been poxy right back to the 80s

It’s not embarrassing. They’ve been to Wembley something like 33 times since Guardiola took over. Their fan base is predominantly a working class Manchester demographic. They don’t have endless pots of gold in their bank accounts. The issue is semi finals being played at Wembley

Paul Doherty is by a country mile the biggest asset that the SDLP has in local government. A man who lives the description of public servant. He is never out of our paper thanks to his tireless social/political work. A catastrophe for the SDLP. Entirely self-inflicted.

He's right

"Maybe I was confused." 😮‍💨 Throwback to this Pep Guardiola dressing room speech to the Man City players after a 2-0 loss to Southampton in the Carabao Cup in 2023. They won the treble that season. Arguably the best coach of all-time for a reason 🐐

Ok Blues, how are we rating #ManCity ‘leaked’ lineup of kits for next season out of 10? 👕🤔 #MCFC

A few days on, and that win over Arsenal still feels incredible. Games like that show character and what this great club is about. Happy to share this moment with my friend @NoelGallagher — football, music, and Manchester as it should be. City till we die 💙

@TipSomeCows44 @PintsDrank Thought so also
