Manchester City Legends: Uwe Rösler
The first of a "feature". Introducing to you, the unsuspecting reader a run down of my archetypal Manchester City Heroes. I will only feature those who I have actually seen play, not the legends of yesteryear of whom I've heard so much about.
1994–1998, Scored 65 goals.

Manchester
Just got back from Manchester in time for Match Of The Day. Saw Robinho score his first hat-trick in English football, the first of many I hope, not a bad game today, could have won by 5 or 6! After re-watching the City game I've just flicked over to BBC2 and Oasis' Electric Proms gig is on the box. I used to have a near-obsession with Oasis as a kid.
The reasons for - I was born in Manchester. In an attempt to form any sort of identity in Southern Suburbia, I clutched hold to as many Manchester specific moments of Northern nostalgia as physically and mentally possible for a pre-pubescent boy, who knew a lot about nothing and nothing about everything. This all added to the spice of the North-South divide heightened by the Oasis Blur beef. The Gallagher's are City fans this has added greatly to the mix, me being a Southern Blue and all that. They are also from Burnage, some of my close family live there; around the corner from Sifter's Record Shop (one of the greatest record shops in the world), the famous Chalky White's barbers with its incredible array of pornos, baseball caps and more than one Chris the barber. Pars Wood Shops along with my Gran's house have featured in numerous Oasis clips and maybe a video, although I can't think of which one.
One of my favorite Oasis tracks:
And before I go - ** Some Blog News ** - I've got a few interesting posts in mind, starting to seriously think about some nice little features I want to write, got a lot to do, new job starts next week but before then I'm going to pull out the quill and pad, the pen and paper, the biro and beer-mat and start a new era of new blogs. Oh and more content a long the lines of items and such forth... You know the usual online gems that tickle my fancy and hopefully yours. Chiao.

ROBINHO!!!
I can't believe one of the greatest players in world football has just signed for my beloved Manchester City. In a dramatic turn of events, Robinho the Brazilian superstar has ended up at God's very own club. Chelski once held all the power in the market paying extravagant amounts of money for highly rated, critically acclaimed, lavished with praise superstars. Now we have the power!!! An arab consortium have bought out the club and truly made their mark on the world football map! For an interesting read check out Football 365on why September 1st 2008 will be remembered as the day the big 4 died.
The boy's a bit special.
