By James Renshaw

Manchester City's first game in the Npower League One.

Manchester City travelled to Broadhall Way to look for there first win of the season, Manchester City fans wasn't used to see such small ground but I'm afraid that's what it's come to.


Manchester City was excellent today but the scoreline doesn't show that. Stefan Savic was booked on the 10th minute for a tussle with Stevenage Striker Chris Beardsley. 10 minutes later Jon Ashton was booked for upending Kenwyne Jones. Kenwyne Jones then put Manchester City 1-0 up on the 26th minute.

Not much happened in the second half, Chris Beardsley of Stevenage was sent of in the 56th minute which was for a elbowing Stefan Savic in the face. These two was a loggerheads through out the 90th minutes.

Manchester City had 18 shots with 6 on target and a total possesion of 54%. Stevenage had 8 shots with 3 on target and 46% possesion.

So Manchester City got there first win of the season today, the fans absolutely hated the atmosphere and ground. "It's nothing like the Premier League" said one of the fans.

Manchester City's finally had a home game and it was in the first round of the Carling Cup against Hartlepool United.
