NEW YEAR NEW START. MCFC DUBAI Back to business

Hello All,

Happy new year to you all. Wishing you all an exciting prosperous new year.

First of all i would like to apologize for the deflated attitude that was taken to keeping the blogspot up to date during the latter months of 2009. Their are no excuses really as it does not take long to update but from now on I promise to keep you all up to date on the website during what promises to be a very exciting year for Manchester City football Club.

With 'Bobby Mancs' Blues now lying in the top four where we rightfully belong. A semi final with our arch rivals the 'swamp dwellers' still to come and a place still in the FA cup we sure have a lot to look forward to.

With the recent injury crisis and the African Nations Cup ongoing, Mancini has done rather well to get the best out of what is technically a weakened squad against some decent mediocre opposition. With some players coming back over the next two weeks and the inspirational performances from the likes of Garrido and Benjani of late Mancini could well be the man to get the best of player talent and effort in what I feel is the second strongest squad in the premiership.

City surely have to be looking at challenging for the title with the run in of games that we have. We should not settle for second best whilst this campaign is clearly still open to any of the top six teams considering the games left to play. For City especially, we do not have the added distraction of champions league football to worry about, which could well work to our advantage over the coming months.

With all this in mind I ask you all to rally together at the Crown and Lion as much as you can to cheer on the mighty blues to success. If your as much as an optimist as i am then nothing is impossible. Starting this Saturday lets get together and watch the start of a new exciting era together.

Up the BLUES and DOWN the Scum.

Blue moon is rising at long last. Our days are coming
