Here we have chosen some moments from recent weeks which caught our eye.
City birthday!
Today marks Manchester City’s 124th birthday!
But that’s not the only City birthday to fall on 13 April as ‘keeper Claudio Bravo turns 35 today!
Balloons and birthday cake all round…
Happy 124th birthday @mancity Today (13th April) in 1894 – a Memorandum of Association was signed creating Manchester City FC. This was accepted at Companies House on 16th April.

Pawsome support
The support from fans has been bigger than ever over recent weeks.
Despite our Champions League loss, messages of encouragement flooded in on our Twitter feed.
This particular tweet caught our eye as it featured a very cute, four-legged fan dressed in City colours – just the pick-me-up we needed after that defeat!

Young gun
Could this be one of our youngest supporters yet?!
We absolutely loved this picture of 10-day-old Harry watching his first ever City game, sent in by fan Emmie Carpenter.
He’s even got his Manchester City babygrow on…

USA bound
July can’t come soon enough for us here at City as we recently announced that we are heading stateside for the first ever Women’s International Champions Cup.
Skipper Steph Houghton seems excited about traveling to Portland and Miami for our tour – and so are we!

Looking forward to this! 🌎💙 https://t.co/Xp2bDCRfyU

Super Silva
We absolutely love this ESPN article about our very own David Silva, written by Richard Jolly.
The headline reads: “Man City’s David Silva is the Premier League Player of the Decade, if not the season.”
It really is a must read… Click here for the article.
Same City, Same Passion
We finish with our Same City, Same Passion campaign.
Since the club-wide campaign launched back in January it’s been incredibly well received – but we are delighted that it has been shortlisted for the Media Initiative of the Year by the Women’s Sport Trust #BeAGameChanger awards.
The finalists will be announced on 30 April, and the winner will be announced on 24 May. What an honour to be shortlisted!
