Just received this from Gene Laschuk in Oz, without any prompting, and no sour grapes considering that we couldn't fit his contribution in the book:

"Just wanted to quickly write and congratulate all the writers on the 'Us and Them' book which arrived in the post today. Having spent an hour or so reading it already it comes across as a must have for any serious City fan....I can't wait to delve further into it! Well done to all. Just an amazing resource really and can't imagine how long it must have taken to put together. "The Oracle" sounds like quite a piece of work, would love to set eyes on it!

In other news...big game Sunday and I was convinced we were set for victory till I heard YaYa was out....just don't understand why he can't stay for another two days. Seems a bit silly to me to say the least. But win we must, win we shall...I hope.

I've decided to give Twitter a proper run...having spent a little time trying to get my head around it, and then reading Joey Barton's....thoughts. It could be quite amusing. Have a look if interested. CTID>

Cheers
