If Zamora is available for £5m i'd imagine Manuchio will be around the £27m mark

Offers for Martins, Bassong and two other players turned down.

I'd be interested to know who the other two are (one of them will probably be Beye). I'd also be interested to know who has placed bids for those players.

Anybdoy remember the influx of Chelsea fans on here a few years ago? Superbowl Scott and his brother and a few more, we've also had Lenny and his bried supporting of Arsenal and to be fair to the Liverpool fans they've been on the past few years no matter what, from having only 2 resident City fans in D.D and Enfield Exile, they're suddenly a whole lot more popping up now suddenly wanting to talk "football".

Cibaman's been here for a while to be fair although Mintball is a JCL.

Human nature, every team get's new supporters when things are looking up athlought it's not as if city are poorly supported anyway.

I have to admit to being a glory supporter - my first City match was in 1968 shortly after we'd won the league.

I think its just that there's a lot more to discuss about City at the moment than there has been. Cant remember many conversations worth having in the year that my season ticket worked out at £50 for every City goal scored at home.

Sneijder is an awesome player but I think he'd struggle in England, and struggle to fit in our system. I think the only role he'd fill well would be Gerrard's, but Gerrard is guaranteed 40+ games a year, so whoever is his back up doesn't have to be someone a sgood as Sneijder. He can play on the flanks but it doesn't suit his game at all. I'd rather we raked in the money and spent it on a player who'd fit our system better like Silva
