Manchester City Football Club is a football club in Manchester, England. Founded in 1880 as St. Mark's (West Gorton), they became Ardwick Association Football Club in 1887 and Manchester City in 1894. The club moved to the City of Manchester Stadium in 2003, having played at Maine Road since 1923.
A club which has been in the footballing world for so long is expected to have won good amount of trophies or at least be consistent in terms of performance. Prior to the take over of cash rich owners, Man City had won only 2 First division leagues and 4 FA Cups. Last trophy was in the 1967â68 season. Post this era, City has been anything but a top club. They are used to battling relegation. In the 18 years from 1983 to 2001, they were relegated from the top flight four times; and they even spent one season in the third tier.
