He even had a relevant comparison to similar facilities being a success within the city of London, as opposed to Keegan talking about the Cardiff facility which is not located anywhere near their city centre. It's almost like Ken came up with the idea and counter argument of a potentially better plan on the spot. Imagine what he could come up with when given, let's say, €1.3m of public money to help get the creative juices flowing.

Jesus in the week that city won the league, the fa cup final is on, the continental leagues are all going the distance, the hurling came back. Mind boggles sometimes.

I think it's a common trend among people who spend huge money on projects like that to insist they were a success. White water rafting is a terrible idea imho, also, tacking on the fast water rescue shíte to pretend it was somehow vital for the training for fire brigade was ridiculous. "You must want people to die in floodwaters if you're against this". Also, the idea that the local skangers can use it to burn off adrenalyn somehow. Ken is right, the whole thing is a joke.

In a way I think they'd be better off with an emotional Mancini style manager than a perfect football guardiola style. I don't think it's to do with the oil money. The story isn't juicy enough.
