  1. That’s a classic photo. Brings a tear to the eye and the Stone Roses line just sums up the vibe in Manchester in the early 90′s. I’d actually get a huge print of that if i could! The two things i love, City and the Roses!

  2. It was disappointing when Ian Brown turned out to be a Man United fan and also when the Red Devils started coming out on the pitch to the strains of “This is the One”. That Rusholme and Moss Side walk to the ground from Wilmslow Road could be a bit tasty but it seemed like “proper” City – I just don’t feel the same on visits to the City of Manchester Stadium now.
