Champions League Update

No, sadly not a report about City blazing a trail in Europe - that'll be next for next season...yer right :-)

I don't often write much about other teams, but I was lucky to be at Parkhead tonight in the torrential rain for the Celtic v AC Milan game, and I've got to say what an unbelievable atmosphere - the stadium was rocking and I can understand why their fans call it "Paradise".

Apart from the referee, who was just shockingly awful and did his best to help Milan whenever he could, the only downer was the queues to get into the stadium and we missed the first 15 minutes whilst getting drenched in rain of Mancunian proportions.

Anyway, that aside, what a great night and what absolutely top supporters Celtic have got.... they did their Bhoys proud tonight.

I only hope that idiot at the end doesn't end up spoiling what was a famous European victory.

Don't think they'll get the full 'closed gates for four matches' ban that the opposition got when that same pillock of a keeper got hit by a firework. Can't remember who it was now - Lazio??

Something for our young enthusiastic supporters to remember though!

Hopefully they'll just get a fine.... as should the Milan 'keeper for a performance worthy of an Oscar.

Can't wait until City are playing at that level and for the fans to experience some great European nights

Hey buddy, don't be so narrow-minded. You're right, this is a City blog, but it's about football too - there are other things happening that are worth a mention. The point of the article was to highlight the sort of European nights City fans have been craving for ages and hopefully will soon be experiencing very soon.
