A COCK UP

SORRY

Please tell everyone

I’d like to ask all City fans reading this blog to mention it to all the City fans they know and ask them to visit it. A lot of work has gone into this project by a lot of people, and the more people we can get on board the bigger success it will be. Can’t wait to see that faces on the City fans in S.L. when they see their new bus. I know from experience that it will be the best bus the country. Thanks for all your support so far and let’s keep it going. Not difficult to work out which one is me - and thats sweat it was not raining

It SINKS in but I hope it does not SINK

the boat is on its way the most recent pic is of the container ship on its way to Sierra Leone with our precious bus aboard along with all the kit , laptops , books etc - lets keep it all crossed it arives in good time

new posters

we now have both Alex and Tony on board - so maybe they will give their thoughts we have also invited Howard - neil from Endermol and Paul Lake if he has time to contribute so should be a more informative Blog form now as they guys have a lot of insight - Go Guys

all a bit quiet before the storm so to speak

we are making mundane arrangments like being able to watch the home leg of the europa tie against the rumainians and the mackams game - I searched my house today and came up with no less than 7 pairs of glasses for SL and maybe more to come yet - our chairman flies in on Sat - if the rumours are true to tie up the signings of Milner and a certain Italian 19 yr old - bigger business than I will ever do me thinks but for less than a weeks wages for either of the players we will make so much differnece in SL - so if you find time to read thankyou Mr Chairman - Mr Khaldoon Al Mubarak - thankyou for believing in us and SL

Getting Ready

Well the bus has left - and we are well on the road to being ready to go as well as all the injections we had to apply for Visas to gain Entry to Sierra Leone - they required quite detailed info and £50 per person - this is now done and all have been cleared to go

Please check the Valencia programme for details on an unwanted spectacles collection at the ground for the Liverpool game but just in case here are the details

BY Alex Channon

One thing we are desperately short of is spectacles. We are appealing for glasses of all strengths and sizes to take with us. Spectacles can be posted to

Alex Channon
'Penalty Spot'
11 Thirlmere Avenue
Swinton
Manchester M27 5XD.

Prior to the Liverpool home game we will be collecting spectacles outside the main entrance and the City Store. Please bring your old and unwanted glasses to the Liverpool game and donate them to a very worthy cause.

Further enquiries about the Appeal and need for glasses can be had by contacting Alex alexchannon81@gmail.com
