Football FanCast columnist Rob Facey argues that Man City cant simply congratulate themselves on almost signing Ronaldinho, they must carry on thinking big if they are to succeed under Mark Hughes.

As Man City begin their latest chapter with ex-Red Devil Mark Hughes at the helm, it remains to be seen whether or not the club will be involved in any more transfers this summer.

‘One Moment In Time' is a nostalgic look back at events and occasions in City's past that will no doubt resurrect many impassioned memories for most City fans. Written from my personal point of view, I am hoping that reliving these moments, whether they were good or bad will prove to be an enjoyable read for all. This month...City's UEFA Cup trip to Lokeren in Belgium.

Planning for an away football match is tricky at the best of times. Planning for an away match in Europe is even trickier. Flights, hotels, trains and car journeys all have to be worked out around the kick-off time- if any journey time takes too long then connections could be missed and we could miss the whole game.

Football FanCast columnist Daniel Lomax thinks that Ronaldinho should think carefully about his next move and hopes his sole motive is not money, but to find the right club to revitalise his fledging career.

Whatever has happened to the extraordinary talent that Ronaldinho held? The former World Player of the Year's career has taken a severe nose dive since that year in 2004 where he beat off stiff competition from the likes of Thierry Henry and Andrei Shevchenko to the accolade.

Football FanCast columnist Stephen Darwin feels that Manchester City are in very safe hands under Mark Hughes and expects the club to move on to a higher level.

Manchester City have been concealed in the shadow of their fierce city rivals for far too long. If the appointment of Mark Hughes wasn't a statement of intent, then the rather ambitious plot to sign Ronaldinho certainly proves that the club mean business this season. Sven didn't manage to convince his owner despite ringing the changes at the City of Manchester Stadium, although could Sparky, once an enemy to the blue half of Manchester, really be the man to fulfil Thaksin's ambitions of a top 5 finish?

Football FanCast columnist David Mooney looks at the nine stages that Manchester City fans go through, every given season.

Every team has their hardcore supporters, but I'm not sure any team has supporters much harder than Man City. We're the experts at gallows humour and, no matter how bad the football is and how low the team goes, more and more fans keep turning up.

Football FanCast guest columnist Mitch Hayes is delighted that Hart and Dunne are set to put pen to paper and feels they will prove City's most important signings this summer.

They say a week is a long time in football but a month at Manchester City has proved something of an eternity. Sven gone, ex United man in and it finally looks like we are finally going to see Thaksin's fortunes - Eastlands can never be accused of being a dull place.

Football FanCast guest columnist Marcus West looks at the endless rumours circulating at Manchester City and wonders which striker would be the better prospect.

They say you don't need to be a weatherman to tell you when it's raining and you certainly don't need to be brain of Britain to work out where Manchester City need to improve their squad for next season.

Football FanCast columnist Emily Brobyn looks to define what loyalty is within football and reminisces over the good, the bad and ugly times she has endured with Manchester City.

Picture the scene; it's Saturday 17th October 1998 and a bitterly cold and rainy autumn day. I am stood on the home terrace at Springfield Park shivering and dripping wet, my long blonde hair gone from straight to matted in a matter of minutes. I have lost sensation in all of my toes and my fingers it's so cold and forty minutes into the game it's still goalless. City, then fallen giants, have failed to score against then-lowly Wigan Athletic for 40 whole minutes.
