A few years ago when I was working at a creative agency we got our hands on a booklet that's given to Man City players when they sign — we got to update it, to talk about Manchester, the history, their duties as footballers being beyond 90 minutes every week, and a reminder that each time they stepped out onto the field wearing the sky blue shirt, they were representing the fans and the city, and that moment had been 100+ years in the making.

Quoted from pen penfras


I don't think the videos are that exciting for people who aren't emotionally tied to the club. Some of what they say regarding community, culture and improving the training facilities is good. But they also make very clear that they don't have any immediate plans and haven't put out a "we're going for it" statement. I completely understand that it's the best thing in terms of not building expectations too high, but it doesn't scream ambition to prospective players.



100% agree, if the videos can be edited down and just leave the facial expression and the shrug of the shoulders reaction to the question of                           " were the 200k worth of free trust shares included in the sale" then that should give everyone in the game a clear message of what type of club we are now aiming to be.  
Great idea Pen.
