it’s the taking part apparently …

Weekend saw another trip to Wembley, a place where we have been regular visitors since Manchester City hit the financial jackpot a few years back. A couple of FA Cup Semi Finals, a couple of FA Cup Finals, a couple of League Cup finals and a few Charity Shield games have provided us with an […]

it’s another trip …

It’s seems only like yesterday when my time watching Manchester City was one of low (but realistic expectation). I had accepted that I would never see them win the Premier League and clung onto only the faintest of hopes of any sort of Cup success. Of course the world has changed a little since then, […]

january isn’t a bad month after all (part 2) …

1 Comment
| Family, Football

Being a ‘gentleman of leisure’ means my time is spent somewhat differently than in previous January’s – going out to eat on a ‘school night’; seeing Daniel and Emma’ having time to go out for breakfast and bizarrely even enjoying a bit of gardening in January have all added to the realization that January is […]

boxing day 2014 …

| Football, General

Richard and I went off to the Midlands yesterday to watch City play at West Brom – it was another fine performance and another fine win for the team. At times the first half of the game was another masterclass from City but unfortunately the weather dominated the second half and completely slowed the game […]

another sunday – and another nice breakfast time

No Comments
| Family, Football

Sarah, Damian and the children joined us for breakfast today (Richard was already out on the snooker trail) – breakfast like this are one of the things that I enjoy most – Daniel is such good value and doubtless another few months will see Emma the same … she already follows Daniels earlier liking for […]

didn’t see that one coming

Whilst I never expect to watch an exciting game when Manchester City play Stoke I hadn’t expected City to get beat at The Etihad yesterday – but in truth it was probably a fair result for a very determined Stoke team. It’s not great football to watch and I certainly couldn’t imagine paying to watch […]

Well I was at The Etiihad last night for the first home game of the season to watch City play Liverpool. It was very much business as usual for City and they were able to follow-up last weeks fine away win at Newcastle with a convincing and comfortable 3-1 win last night. It goes without […]

Richard and I traveled to Newcastle yesterday for the first game of the season and City’s defence of the title. Decent day and very decent performance and result, and of course we opted for the healthy option when it came to lunch.
