The Club would like extend a big ‘thank-you’ to the 400 or so City fans who helped make Thursday night’s fans forum such a success.

Mark Hughes, Pablo Zabaleta & Vincent Kompany signed autographs and posed for photos for 45 minutes, before being joined on stage by CEO Gary Cook and Head of Supporter Experience Danny Wilson for a question and answer session.

Topics covered included the atmosphere at the sell-out UEFA Cup tie, where the away fans are housed at the stadium and the City kit, but Sunday’s derby was also hotly debated. Pablo ably displayed his grasp of English and received several big ovations for his good-humoured responses to questions from the floor, while Vincent also told of how he realises just what is at stake when City play United.
