    I think it's 'The Man in the Glass' by Peter Dale Wimbrow

    Just seen the feature on BBC football focus and ok maybe its selective editing but I don't think I've seen before team spirit and camerarderie like the city players displayed.
    Mind you I bet its easier to train in good spirits when you are in top form.

    Bit like supporting them on here. It's easy to distance yourself when the team are struggling.

    Read a quote the other day.
    Fickleness never goes out of fashion.

    When city lose it ruins the next 48 hours or longer regardless of how far i've tried to distance myself.

    and I don't take being called fickle as an insult. The owners have fuelled my fickleness.

    Did you see his latest Kempton, he believes in 'TEAM' or Together Everybody Achieves More, in his own words. Forget the baying crowd of Chazz and his buddies and tell me that he isn't completely embarrasing, nearly everything he comes out with? This day and age too, it's a bit hard to avoid interviews when they are plastered on every website, on the local radio, TV, Sky News etc.

    I was just answering Kempton, otherwise you wouldn't hear anything from me. Don't mind replying to decent posters on here, not the gin heads

    Sorry man, but I've not seen his interviews. I see the results he gets and that'll do for me.

    What's that about Gin?

    You're being a bit weird.

    I don’t listen to or watch his interviews either.
    I’ve never really been one for manager interviews to be honest
    They’ve got a job to do and it’s what they say to the players is the important thing, and you know they can’t really share that so the rest is pointless
    His only mistake yesterday was waving ;)

    Despite overwhelming odds,virtually zero help from the board who hired him and countless abuse and ridicule in his early days from his own fans and media alike,Adkins is slowly but surely making City a team few want to go toe to toe with at the minute and for that alone he gets my respect. Other teams are talking about us again now,and I would wager fans from other clubs who thought we were once an easy three points home or away suddenly don’t fancy playing us at all now.

    As another poster said,enjoy the ride.

    Mate of mine is a Villa fan. He's pretty much echoed the sentiments which you have just talked about for opposition fans.
