Yeah I guess it has been hard supporting them in the Shadow of MU's success all these tears , perhaps with the piles of PetroDollars now pouring in from the Arabs it will buy success, Like Chelsea did, not a certainty so keep your sense of humour.
PS: your legs are safe .. i am just fucking with your mind.

It does'nt matter how much cash these Arabs have got, they won't reproduce the great City team of the late Sixties. When you see some of the millions that are spent on ordinary players, it makes you wonder what price Colin Bell would fetch in todays market.

Colin Bell....... Najinsky
Career ruined by a Martin Buchan tackle at Old Trafford in a derby and we never even got a free kick O.C......... we have a saying, better than Best.

I saw Bell and Best play live a few times and in my opinion he was a better player. Summerbee in his pomp was'nt far behind either. He was a real flyer down the wing, as quick as Valerie Bortsov (sp?). A hard man too, when asked who is the hardest player you have ever played against, Roy McFarland said Mike Summerbee without any doubt.

The thing that City had in common then with the "great teams" was a top manager who could get the best out of players. That said, like Ferguson at United, it took him a couple of years to impose himself on the club. I just hope City have got the patience to allow Hughes the same opportunity and to give credit to the Arabs they can take a long-term view on things. Only time will tell.

Joe Mercer was a legend of a manager. Bit different in those days, his Captain on the pitch was signed from Bath City.
