... sense of humor and Mike Devlin couldn't do a better job transitioning this core concept to the page
Being a Manchester City fan means having a unique and sarcastic sense of humor and Mike Devlin couldn't do a better job transitioning this core concept to the page. This book will take you on a comical journey through the history of the one true club based in Manchester. The resulting product is a hilarious and a fun read. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted to learn about their club whilst having a laugh.

Great Fun, But Also Informative
I bought this book for a friend, who was another who previously thought his life had been ruined by Manchester United. I support another team, so I will not be reading it. My friend thoroughly enjoyed the book and read it from cover to cover almost immediately. He enjoyed the jokey style and picked up new facts or was reminded of forgotten history throughout. He is now lending the book to his fellow City aficionados. His only disappointment was that the book was published in 2015 and needs updating for the subsequent seasons.

A tongue in cheek journey through the history of Man City. Well worth the read and a wry smile or two if you are a blue. If you want a straight account read Gary James' books. This is the more mischievous younger brother.

very funny and a great read
very funny and a great read. Should be essential reading for the 'no history' brigade. What am I thinking? They probably can't read.
