About skala

Blue and white they go together, we will carry on for evermore!

First Game

Manchester City 0-0 Burnley, First Division, 11/10/1976
- Can remember very little about this, just the wall of noise and the smell of hot dogs. I was only aged 10 at the time though!

Best Game

Manchester City 3-2 Queens Park Rangers, Premier League, 13/5/2012
- Unbelievable match, City win the league in the last seconds with a goal from Sergio Aguero, from the depths of despair to heaven in the space of 2 crazy injury time minutes!

Worst Game

York City 2-1 Manchester City, Division Two, 19/12/1998
- City's all time low point, a dreadful wet and cold Saturday afternoon, shocking performance, horrible little ground, all hope had been washed away that day.

Although it is now showing signs of aging, this is the biggest and most awe inspiring stadium I've ever visited, takes your breath away standing at the top of level 4 looking down on the multitudes below.

Looks like it's been constructed from a giant Meccano set. Facilities are poor and for a ground of such size it just feels very cramped and claustrophobic. Trapped in the 1970s, the whole place seems to reek from the years of arrogance and the match day experience is made inestimably worse by the presence of the scummy, deluded supporters, many of which will commute to the match from London.
