10 DAYS AFTER Roberto Mancini took an ad out in the Manchester Evening News to thank Manchester City fans for ‘three unforgettable years’, they’ve gone and returned the favour in today’s Gatetta Dello Sport.
The BBC reports that it cost £7,000 to take out the ad, pooled by over 700 City fans led by 21-year-old Adam Keyworth, who told Auntie:
“Every single donation has been from everyday City fans and not one from any of our celebrity support.
“Incredibly, as donations continue to pour in, I am in the position to give every penny over the advert fee to a local Manchester charity, so more people benefit from this idea.”
