My name is Darryl Webster and for the 2013/14 season I intend to visit 14 official Manchester City supporter's clubs. From Oslo to New York, Brisbane to Abu Dhabi.

A thorough and engaging exploration of local culture, football, and of course how, when and why a Manchester City Supporter's Club came to exist in your particular part of the world. I will take in one key match at each supporter's club, documenting in writing and pictures the different ways each Heart of the City pub celebrates East Manchester's greatest export.

The finished book will be an engaging collection of stories from the most passionate and supportive fans in the world. The Citizens! Think "On The Road" if Jack Kerouac were a Blue and consumed nothing harder than a few pints.

The campaign funding is going to be split into two parts. This is Part 1, $3000 to cover North American flights and accomodation where necessary. I will still be paying my own rent back home in Toronto and there won't be any Michelin Star restaurants on the itinerary.

A second camapign will launch over the Holidays 2013 to help cover the international portion of the project as well as the physical publication of the book if we go the self-publishing route vs publisher.

Earlier this year I wrote a two-part series for Manchester City regarding their impact on local football supporters in Toronto, which you can read by visiting:

I also write a monthly blog for Manchester City's official website, check out August's piece linked below:

If you live in a city with an official MCFC supporter's club you believe I've missed, please drop me an email and we'll see what we can do.

Thanks you for your time and I look forward to meeting you along the way!


Darryl Webster.
