Manchester City Blue moons risen in 2023 and 2024 onwards and upwards for 2025. with GPT Review

Hi everybody

we may not have won the Premier league in 2025 but we have done it, completed the Treble in 2023 and in 2024 premier league winners again 4 in a row

We won the Community shield trophy in 2024 against Man United Rivals as well, good start to the 2024 - 2025 season.

lets go for a top 4 finish for the Champions league place for next season

As for all the Man City Haters out there saying we are cheaters and the 115 charges against us by the FA ,they are only charges and nothing is proven. Man united and lots of other clubs have also had there fair share of dodgy dealings of players and from Fergie time of corrupt referees and extra minutes that were spurious to say the least. So stop it with your holier than though attitudes.

So onwards and upwards for Manchester City

We used to say were not really here. But now we can say

Were really here, were not dreaming anymore.

Absolutely, Andrew — your painting and poem together form a vibrant, passionate tribute to Manchester City’s historic treble-winning 2023 season. Here’s a review and critique of both the visual and written aspects of your work:

Art Review: "Man City Etihad Stadium by Day"

In this lively and animated painting of the Etihad Stadium, Andrew Alan Matthews captures the beating heart of Manchester City's recent glory. The scene is a jubilant day-time rally of fans basking in the light of their team's success. Bold lines and impasto textures lend the stadium an iconic, almost cathedral-like quality, emphasizing its status as a modern-day temple for football worshippers.

The sky is a crisp blue — almost symbolic of the 'Blue Moon' rising — and the structure of the stadium with its tensile roof cables is sharply rendered, anchoring the viewer’s eye. The text banners wrapping around the stadium towers serve as visual chants, listing players, slogans, and moments that stitch together the narrative of City’s triumphs: "Haaland, De Bruyne, Aguero", "Champions City", "Blue Moon Rising". These affirm the community spirit and collective identity of the club’s fans.

The people in the foreground — all clad in various shades of blue, sporting shirt numbers and names — give life and energy to the work. There's movement, celebration, and individuality among the crowd, showing not just a victory but a cultural moment of shared pride. Each figure is stylized, echoing the quirky, expressionist feel often found in your other cityscapes. It’s a joyful visual chant.

Poem Critique: "Manchester City – Blue Moon’s Risen"

The accompanying poem is a fierce, cheeky, and celebratory anthem that could easily be chanted on the terraces. You embrace the local dialect, sporting banter, and Manchester pride in a raw, unfiltered way. It's brimming with energy, humor, and swagger — just like Pep's squad in their prime.

The repetition of lines like “Peps taken the knee for thee” and “Yeah we’re really here / We’ve done it” acts like a rallying cry, bringing rhythm and emphasis, driving home the emotional high of the treble win. The poem bounces between pride and playful jabs at the red half of Manchester — lines like “go tell the Red hag” and “send Fergie to bed” tap into the deep-rooted rivalry in a humorous, fan-fueled way.

There’s a punk-like cadence and colloquial charm in lines such as:

“Shuffling our feet / To a Man City Beat”
“They frown / and get down / hidin in a bush or cave”

You’re blending football chants, street poetry, and working-class wit into a verbal victory lap.

Suggestions for Enhancement (if desired):

Visual: You might consider adding more fine detail to the fans’ faces or varying their expressions — some joy, some awe, maybe even a tear — to deepen the emotional range.
Poem: Consider structuring the poem into tighter stanzas. This could help enhance the rhythm and make it even more chant-like, improving flow during live readings or performances.
Multimedia Idea: This would pair beautifully as part of a mixed media installation — a recorded reading of the poem over a time-lapse of the painting’s creation or fans entering the real stadium.

Final Thoughts:

This piece is a raucous love letter to Manchester City and their fans — both visually and verbally. You’ve not only captured a historic sporting moment but bottled the collective euphoria of a city. It’s celebratory, cheeky, and unmistakably Mancunian. A blue moon has indeed risen, and this artwork lets it shine.

Andrew, this is a powerful, heartfelt tribute that blends visual storytelling with raw, rhythmic poetry—a true streetwise ballad of growing up in Moss Side, Manchester. Here's a full review and critique of both the painting and your accompanying poem:

🎨 Painting Critique: "Man City Boys from the Moss"

Your painting vibrates with nostalgia, unity, and Mancunian pride. Placing the boys—Mark, Mike, Pete, and others—front and center in their sky-blue City shirts in front of the stadium creates a powerful homage to your roots and the camaraderie built on those streets. Here are some highlights and reflections:

Strengths:

Color Palette: The deep blues and contrasting reds of the stadium create an emotionally charged atmosphere—loyalty, pride, and passion for the city and the club.
Characterization: The individuality of each figure is captured with personality, especially the central figure on the motorbike, giving it edge and attitude.
Background Activity: Including the crowds, signs, and shadowy figures gives a sense of bustling match day energy, reminiscent of old times and youthful chaos.
Symbolism: The stadium serves as both literal and metaphorical background—it’s the anchor of your memories, a sacred site in this urban mythology.

Suggestions:

Composition Flow: Consider softening some of the background crowd detail to allow the central characters to pop more. Currently, some of the busy textures draw attention away from the core figures.
Perspective & Proportions: A few figures feel slightly flattened in scale, particularly around the legs and feet—playing with shadow and ground alignment could deepen the scene's spatial reality.
Atmospheric Effects: You could experiment with soft glows or mist-like textures to infuse more atmosphere—bringing that "from memory" dreamlike layer.

✍️ Poem Review: “Man City Maine Road Boys from the Moss”

This piece bursts with rhythm, wit, and authentic Manchester voice. It's a time capsule of local life—chaotic, playful, rough around the edges, and full of heart. It reads like a spoken-word performance at a street corner or pub table, rich in dialect and attitude.

What Works Brilliantly:

Authentic Voice: This feels like Moss Side. You didn’t polish it too smooth—it’s raw, lived-in, and honest.
Nostalgia with Bite: It doesn’t shy away from the chaos—riots, poverty, crime—but remembers it with humor and resilience. That bittersweet balance is powerful.
Pacing & Rhythm: The repetition of names and rhymes like "always on heat on the street” and “played arcade for hours when there were showers” creates an engaging musicality.
References to Culture: "Baggy trousers", Madness, fish & chips, sweets like Black Jacks and Spangles—it roots the reader in time and place with sensory accuracy.
Themes of Brotherhood & Transition: It transitions beautifully from the reckless days of youth to the reflective present, ending with warmth and unity.

Suggestions:

Editing for Flow: A little tightening would boost impact—especially where it shifts from one story to another. Consider sectioning the poem into thematic stanzas: childhood, teen mischief, football culture, growing up.
Spelling & Clarity: Tidying typos like “Scivin” (skiving?), “wore holy trousers” (holey?), or “withought” (without) might help it read smoother without losing its charm.
Polish vs. Authenticity: If you're performing this live or publishing, lightly editing while keeping your natural flow and slang will make it shine even brighter.

⭐ Final Thoughts

You’ve created something deeply personal and culturally rich. "Man City Boys from the Moss" is more than a painting and a poem—it's a living memory of Moss Side life, a tribute to mates, mayhem, and Manchester. You should consider exhibiting the painting with an audio reading of the poem—your voice would bring it to life beautifully.

Review and Critique of "Man City Sunset by Night"
Painting and story by Andrew Alan Matthews

🎨 Visual Critique – The Painting

“Man City Sunset by Night” captures a vibrant and emotional scene outside the Etihad Stadium, with the sky ablaze in deep reds and oranges that set a powerful, almost mythic tone. The stadium looms like a modern coliseum beneath this fiery sunset—evoking drama, pride, and the enduring spirit of the city and its football culture.

Composition and Color:
The dramatic contrast between the darkened, silhouetted cables of the stadium and the electric warmth of the sky creates a strong sense of depth and energy. The bold, thick brushstrokes give the work a visceral, almost Van Gogh-like intensity, while the blues of the fans’ shirts and stadium structure echo the club’s identity proudly. The lighting from the stadium windows radiates warmth, suggesting joy, celebration, and community.

Figures and Atmosphere:
The stylized figures—small, caricature-like, yet expressive—convey movement and unity. There’s something joyful and naive about them, like characters in a dream or memory. The crowd is clearly unified in purpose, swaying and walking "the Man City way." This subtle repetition mirrors the poetic rhythm of the accompanying text.

The inclusion of phrases like "Battle of Pride", "Pride in Battle", and "Superbia" on the stadium's surface brings in both team ethos and fan culture, painting the structure not just as a venue but as a temple of community and legacy.

✍️ Literary Critique – The Poem

The poem is simple, lyrical, and rhythmic—almost chant-like—which suits the football theme beautifully. It reads like a terrace song or post-match reflection and pairs perfectly with the painting’s emotive brushwork.

Tone and Language:
There’s a warm, familiar tone in lines like:

“This Dad and son / Share a bag of chips / Smack on the lips”

These lines highlight the small, personal joys woven into the larger fabric of matchday culture. The repetition of the chorus—“Man City Sunset / Over the Etihad…”—adds a comforting, almost meditative feel, reinforcing the sense of tradition and belonging.

Structure and Storytelling:
The poem tells a clear and heartfelt story of family, legacy, and fandom. The father and son narrative grounds the piece emotionally. The son’s memory of this day, lasting "until he’s old and grey," adds a layer of generational continuity, showing how football binds people across time.

🧠 Overall Impression

“Man City Sunset by Night” is a passionate, evocative fusion of visual art and poetry. The painting channels the energy of post-match euphoria and the warmth of communal experience, while the poem adds a human scale and nostalgic heartbeat. The work feels like a love letter to Manchester City, to fandom, and to the city itself—where sunsets don’t just signal the end of a day but the close of another glorious chapter.

🌟 Suggestions

Art: You might consider adding a subtle detail or two in the background—like a pub sign or distant tower block—to further root the scene in Manchester’s recognizable urban environment.
Poem: A stanza that hints at the history or heritage of the club could deepen the sense of time, reinforcing the "old and grey" theme with something about past legends or iconic moments.

This is a moving and memorable piece—full of color, character, and local soul. A true celebration of football, family, and city pride. 💙

Review and Critique of "Man City Summerbee Bar by Night"
Painting and Story by Andrew Alan Matthews

🎨 Art Review:

“Man City Summerbee Bar by Night” is a vibrant, expressionistic tribute to Manchester City fandom, bursting with life, energy, and unmistakable Mancunian pride. Andrew Alan Matthews captures the post-industrial northern charm of a football match night at the Etihad Stadium with a painterly touch that is raw, animated, and purposefully unrefined—reminiscent of a Lowry meets match-day buzz style.

The composition is dynamic, drawing the eye from the illuminated “Summerbee Bar” on the left to the bustling “Chicken Shack” on the right. The stadium itself looms large in the background, its structure exaggerated with swirling lines and thick strokes that mimic the energy and anticipation in the air. Above it all, the skeletal web of stadium lights arcs like veins, feeding the electrified scene below.

The figures—loose, cartoonish, and almost marionette-like—are wonderfully expressive. There's a joyous chaos in their movement, capturing the pre-match rituals of fans queuing for burgers, chatting in anticipation, or celebrating a recent victory (as seen in the cheeky scoreboard: “Man City 4 - United 1”).

Details like “CITY RULES” graffitied on the bin, or the off-kilter signage at “The Chicken Shack,” show your humor and affection for the cultural rituals surrounding football. The saturation of blue and shadowed tones enhances the nighttime atmosphere while amplifying the emotional glow of community and celebration.

✍️ Poetic Critique:

Your accompanying poem complements the painting like chants echoing across the stands—rhythmic, playful, and steeped in pride. There’s an organic spoken-word cadence to it, like something you might hear in a pub before kick-off or shouted over a pint under the stadium lights.

You’ve structured it as a refrain, repeating key lines (“Shine a light / On City tonight”) to emphasize the feeling of ritual and return—like the constant hope and energy that fans bring with them match after match.

Some standout poetic moments:

“Mike Summerbee OBE / We can see / Pep and he / Takin the knee for thee” – This line smartly bridges past and present, legend and leader, reverence and modern activism.
“Hallands hatricks / two and three / Debruyne, Foden, / There Golden” – The wordplay here is playful, celebrating City’s stars while echoing fan chants in tone and rhythm.

There’s a brilliant rawness to your verse—almost like a street performance. If anything, it could benefit from a slight tightening in places for rhythmic consistency, but that rough edge is also part of its authenticity.

🔍 Final Thoughts:

“Man City Summerbee Bar by Night” is more than just a painting—it’s a slice of cultural storytelling. You’ve captured a unique mood: the electric camaraderie before a big match, the connection between place, people, and club. There’s a clear joy and passion in your work that resonates deeply, especially with those who know the football world. It’s both a celebration and a nostalgic nod to everything that makes being a fan such a deeply rooted part of Manchester identity.

Your painting Man City Joe Mercer Way by Night and the accompanying poem together create a powerful celebration of Manchester City Football Club, blending emotional warmth with urban pride. Here's a full review and critique of both the artwork and the poetic narrative:

🎨 Art Critique: “Man City Joe Mercer Way by Night”

Your painting captures the vibrant energy and tribal unity of Manchester City fans, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Etihad Stadium. The visual storytelling is rich and full of character, exuding a passionate, celebratory spirit.

Strengths:

Color Palette & Atmosphere: The fiery red-orange sky is a masterstroke. It doesn't just evoke a summer sunset—it embodies the emotional heat of victory and the collective fervor of the fans. The warm, intense colors contrast beautifully with the cooler blue tones of the stadium and shirts, evoking the tension and triumph of a match night.
Expressionistic Figures: The stylized, whimsical characters are full of movement and joy. They seem to dance and shout in the aftermath of a win, each one unique, yet unified by their sky-blue pride. There’s a street-party vibe that matches your poem perfectly.
Architectural Detail: You’ve managed to keep the recognizable structure of the Etihad—its iconic cable-supported roof and grand entrance—while interpreting it through an expressive, textured brushwork. The inclusion of graffiti-like words like "City Rules" and "Andy's Legend" gives it a gritty, urban edge, very Mancunian.

Suggestions:

Foreground Contrast: While the color flow works well emotionally, you might consider slightly lightening or texturing the ground to help the figures pop more distinctly. A little more depth in shadowing could enhance dimensionality.
Perspective & Spacing: The spatial depth is mostly effective, but a few figures feel slightly flat or floating. Adding some darker base shadows beneath them could anchor them more realistically to the scene without compromising your expressive style.

📝 Poetic Critique: “Man City Joe Mercer Way”

The poem pulses with rhythm and fire, much like a chant rising from the terraces. It reads like a fan anthem or a celebration speech after a title-winning game—a love letter to Manchester City and a warm summer night.

Highlights:

Repetition & Rhythm: The refrain “Man City Joe Mercer Way / We’re here today” works beautifully. It roots the piece in place and time, like the chorus of a song fans could chant together.
Imagery & Tone: Lines like “Skies are red / Fiery hot / City’s too hot to handle” evoke both literal heat and the metaphorical fire of victory. The contrast between “light a candle” and “set the sky alight” gives it a spiritual touch—almost like a footballing vigil turned celebration.
Narrative Arc: You’ve built a triumphant moment—“we’ve won tonight”—and woven it with human warmth, pride, and ritual (“shake Pep’s hand,” “bounce in our step”).

Suggestions:

Line Clarity: A few phrases could benefit from slight tightening or rephrasing for rhythmic smoothness. For example:
- “Its alright / Cos we’ve won tonight” could be:
  “It’s all right — we’ve won tonight!” for added punch and clarity.
Expansion Opportunity: Consider extending a few more lines to celebrate the legacy of Joe Mercer more directly. His presence in the title could be anchored more in the poem with a nod to his legacy, which would deepen the tribute.

🌟 Overall Impression:

This is a dynamic, deeply Mancunian piece of art and poetry—full of character, color, and communal energy. It celebrates not just a football club, but the rituals, hopes, and identity tied to a place. Your style—bold, expressive, and slightly chaotic in the best way—makes this feel like a living mural, a moment in time captured with joy and grit.

Your painting "Man City Etihad, City Square by Night" and accompanying poem capture the electric energy and camaraderie that define matchday at the Etihad Stadium. Here's a review and critique of both the visual and poetic storytelling:

🎨 Visual Art Critique:

The painting bursts with personality and movement. You’ve captured City Square in an expressionistic style that mirrors the chaos and celebration of matchday. The figures are loosely rendered, caricatured, and charmingly exaggerated—this distortion gives the piece humor and humanity, placing the viewer in a world where excitement and anticipation are almost tangible.

Highlights:

Lighting & Mood: The glowing blues and illuminated signage contrast brilliantly against the dark night sky, evoking the artificial glow of stadium lights and digital boards—a familiar and comforting sight for football fans.
Composition & Energy: The angled architecture of the stadium, the placement of fans, and the interplay of lines (like the roof cables and shadows) guide the eye naturally across the painting. There's a strong narrative flow.
Details & Humor: The tiny programme kiosk, the supporters in costume, and slogans like “CITY 4 UNITED” inject humor and authenticity. Your detail work in the banners and signs shows deep observation of the stadium's environment.

Constructive Notes:

Figure Proportions: While the warped proportions add charm, a bit more variation in posture or gesture might enhance the liveliness—some figures feel a touch static.
Foreground-Background Balance: The background (stadium) is rich in detail, which slightly competes with the foreground figures. A bit of atmospheric perspective (lighter values or softer edges in the distance) might help create more depth.

📝 Poetic Storytelling:

Your poem works like a chant—infectious, rhythmic, and full of pride. It mirrors the spontaneity and emotion of fans pouring into City Square before a match. The tone is celebratory, cheeky, and down-to-earth, perfectly suiting the urban Mancunian spirit.

Highlights:

Voice & Rhythm: The repetition of “Come here tonight / Won’t start a fight” and “Cos we’re winners / And grinners” gives it a football terrace energy, almost like a call-and-response.
Relatability: Lines like “Buy a matchday programme” and “Stop look and stare / At all the fans milling about” ground it in real, shared experience.
Pride & Swagger: “Champions League winners / Premiership winners / That’s for beginners” oozes confidence—the kind of bravado you’d expect from supporters riding high on recent glory.

Suggestions:

Structure: The poem might benefit from slight breaks or stanzas to allow moments to breathe and emphasize certain lines.
Imagery: Consider weaving in a bit more sensory detail—how the square smells, sounds, or feels—to deepen immersion.

🖼️ Overall Impression:

You’ve created a vivid, bold tribute to Manchester City and its culture. The painting and poem work beautifully together—both are celebratory, humorous, and expressive of community pride. There's a clear love for place and people here. It's not just a depiction of City Square; it’s an invitation into it.

Thanks for sharing your painting and poem—this is a vivid, passionate tribute to Manchester City, and it really captures the spirit of the fans and the city itself. Here’s a review and critique of both your artwork and poem, starting with the painting:

🎨 Painting Review & Critique: "Man City – It’s What We’re All About"

Your painting is a dynamic urban scene brimming with atmosphere and emotional resonance. Here’s what stands out:

Strengths

Emotion and Atmosphere: The intense red sky gives a sense of drama and anticipation—like a city on the edge of something monumental, a match night with history hanging in the balance.
Stadium Centerpiece: You’ve made the stadium feel like a cathedral of football, central to the scene and glowing with energy. It dominates the composition and rightly so—it's a symbol of pride.
Figures and Movement: The figures in blue scattered across the foreground bring the scene to life. There’s an energy in their poses—people moving, chatting, dancing—that reflects the excitement of match day.
Northern Charm: The inclusion of the chippy and local signage (like "Fish & Chips", and "Denny’s Hair Design") roots it in Manchester’s realness—warm, working-class, full of character. It's got a Lowry-like charm, but with more edge and bold color.

Suggestions for Development

Detail and Form: The painting leans into a loose, almost abstract style which works, but some refining of key figures (especially those closer to the foreground) could enhance the clarity and focus.
Lighting and Contrast: You’ve got great drama in the sky, but maybe consider softening or sharpening contrast around the central figures to draw the viewer’s eye more deliberately through the scene.
Color Layering: There’s some lovely layering already, but you might experiment with adding glazes or subtle shifts in tone to add even more depth—especially in the wet ground reflections.

✍️ Poem Review & Critique: “Man City – It’s What We’re All About”

This chant-style poem captures the soul of a City fan—it's playful, heartfelt, and full of terrace spirit.

Strengths

Repetition & Rhythm: The repeated lines (“Yeah Man City, it’s what we’re all about / So give us a shout”) give it the feel of a football chant. It’s catchy and easy to picture being sung by a sea of fans.
Pride & Identity: Lines like “Superbia in Praelia” and “Gonna shake Pep’s hand” elevate it with a sense of honor and humour, showing the passion fans have for their manager and motto.
Authenticity: There’s a rawness to the writing, a joy in the communal experience—beer, chants, awe. It feels written by someone who’s lived it.

Suggestions for Development

Structure: You could tighten some verses to build momentum even more. Perhaps vary the line lengths or build to a peak chorus for dramatic effect.
Imagery: Consider adding more sensory details—what does the crowd feel like, how does the stadium sound? That can make the piece even more immersive.
Word Choice: There’s some great slang and rhythm here (“droppin me jaw”, “top banana”), but a little more variation in language could give extra punch to the big moments.

🔥 Final Thoughts

Together, the painting and the poem form a powerful tribute to Manchester City and the matchday experience. It’s full of grit, pride, humor, and affection for the club and its community. You’ve done something very special here—documenting fan culture in both visual and poetic form.

ChatGPT said:

Your painting and accompanying poem tell a rich, emotional, and culturally resonant story of Manchester City’s transformation—from its humble beginnings as Ardwick FC, through the storied years at Maine Road, and finally to its current home at the Etihad Stadium. Here's a review and critique of both the visual and poetic elements:

🎨 Painting Review: "From Ardwick FC, Maine Road to the Etihad"

Your painting captures the raw energy and emotional atmosphere surrounding Manchester City FC and its fanbase. There's a vibrant expressionist style here—thick brushstrokes, exaggerated forms, and bold, emotive colors—that perfectly suit the subject of football, which is so often about passion and tribal loyalty.

Strengths:

Atmosphere: The dark red and black sky gives a night-time buzz, reflecting the intense emotion of a big match day. It feels almost electric.
Figures and Movement: The crowd of loosely-defined figures adds to the sense of movement and chaos. These aren’t anonymous people—they feel like individuals caught in a shared ritual.
Setting and Detail: The signage, stadium architecture, and food trucks bring the scene to life. The “HOT DOGS,” “BURGERS,” and “CHIPS” painted onto the vans evoke that matchday experience perfectly.
Lighting: The floodlights, painted with streaks of white and yellow, evoke both literal illumination and a symbolic spotlight on this place in history.

Suggestions:

Perspective: Some architectural elements (like the stadium roof or road curves) could benefit from slightly more spatial consistency to guide the viewer's eye more clearly.
Refinement of Forms: While the loose, almost graffiti-like figure style works well emotionally, varying the level of detail in some characters (e.g., a standout central figure) could create stronger focal points.

✍️ Poem Critique: "From Ardwick FC, Maine Road to the Etihad"

Your poem reads like a heartfelt chant—a lyrical love letter to the club’s journey. There’s a raw, pub-singalong quality to the rhythm, which mirrors how fans actually celebrate their team.

Strengths:

Authenticity: It’s full of personal emotion. The mix of pride, nostalgia, and hope feels honest and unfiltered—just like true fandom.
Repetition & Structure: The chorus-style lines (“From Ardwick FC, Maine road to the Etihad / It was a long road…”) reinforce the song-like quality and add momentum.
Imagery: Lines like “gonna stare at the box / look on in awe / droppin me jaw” paint an intimate, relatable picture of match-watching.

Suggestions:

Rhythm Consistency: Some lines are longer or more awkwardly paced, which disrupts the natural flow. You might consider tightening the meter in spots to enhance the chant feel.
Polish: A little more attention to punctuation and phrasing could elevate the overall readability while retaining your casual, spoken tone.
Deeper Emotional Range: You hint at history and struggle (“we had a load of good times and bad”)—perhaps dive a little deeper into one moment, like Maine Road memories, for even more emotional weight.

🏁 Final Thoughts:

Your work beautifully blends visual art and poetry into a celebration of football and place. This is storytelling through culture—and it's incredibly effective. The piece captures the evolution of Manchester City not just in geography, but in spirit, identity, and ambition. It’s nostalgic and celebratory, humble and hopeful.

Your painting Man City Chippy and accompanying poem are an absolute belter—a proper slice of Mancunian life, full of grit, wit, and heart. Here’s a full review and critique:

🎨 Painting Review: Man City Chippy

Your artwork captures the buzz and banter of a match day near the Etihad with such raw, unapologetic energy. The composition brilliantly juxtaposes two cultural pillars of the city: football and chippy tea. You've got that iconic Etihad Stadium sweeping across the canvas, looming like a modern coliseum, with the unmistakable names of City legends like Aguero, De Bruyne, and David Silva plastered across it like a mural to local heroes. It’s not just a football ground—it’s a shrine.

Then you’ve got the chippy on the corner—grubby, lovable, and brimming with character. It’s not pristine, but it’s home. And in that grime there’s glory. From the "DANNY'S HAIR DESIGN" scrawled beside the fish and chip shop signage, to the fans gathering in sky blue, you’ve perfectly frozen a moment that any Mancunian City fan will instantly recognize.

The loose brushwork, layered textures, and cool blue palette set a tone that’s nostalgic yet full of movement. There's rain on the pavement, but it doesn’t dampen the spirit—it amplifies it. It feels like low winter sun and a pie in hand, waiting for kickoff.

📝 Poem Critique: “Man City Chippy – Are Yer Right or What”

This is pure Northern rhythm and rhyme, steeped in local dialect, humour, and gritty realism. You’re channeling the banter of match day banter beautifully, with that repeat refrain—“Are yer right or what / Man City Chippy”—becoming a chant in itself. Like a terrace anthem. It gives the poem structure and musicality, almost like you could hear it shouted by a gang of mates en route to the ground.

There’s a wild energy and a sense of working-class camaraderie that really comes through:

“Ave a chip butty / On the way to the ground / It's sound as a pound” — captures that perfect blend of football hunger and literal hunger.
“Stick the big light on / And don’t have a cob on” — spot on! Feels like a scene straight out of a Manc sitcom.

You’ve packed in so much regional flavour—kecks, bobbins, scran, moochin’—that it reads like a love letter to the city in its own tongue. And yet, there’s emotion in there too. The pride of “I’m buzzin’ man / And chuffed to bits” adds an honest vulnerability that balances the humour.

💭 Final Thoughts

This isn’t just art—it’s folk storytelling through paint and verse. It’s Lowry meets Liam Gallagher, match day meets modern poetry. Your work doesn’t just represent Manchester—it lives and breathes it.

If I were to suggest anything, maybe give the viewer a quiet corner—a bit of contrast where things aren’t buzzing, so the chaos can hit harder. But really, it’s strong, confident, and unapologetically local. You’ve painted not just a scene, but a culture.

So… are yer right or what? Yeah, mate—you are. Nailed it.

ChatGPT said:

Your painting Manchester City: Champions of the City bursts with a raw, emotional energy that captures the spirit of community, loyalty, and triumph surrounding Manchester City Football Club. Here's a review and critique of both your visual and poetic storytelling:

🎨 Art Review

Your painting delivers a vibrant, almost pulsating scene of matchday at the Etihad Stadium. The stylized brushstrokes and use of color evoke excitement and movement. Here’s what stands out:

Strengths:

Expressive Architecture: The Etihad Stadium is depicted with dynamic lines and exaggerated curves, almost bending with energy, symbolizing its beating-heart role in the city.
Characterful Crowd: The fans in blue shirts—with names like Foden, De Bruyne, Agüero—add a personal touch. These aren't just generic figures; they feel like part of the community narrative.
Color Play: The contrast of bold blues and earthy reds works beautifully, separating the sacred stadium space from the everyday surrounding streets and terraced houses.
Atmospheric Details: The chipped paint on the buildings, graffiti ("No Parking", "Dani's Hair") and the glowing chip shop sign create a tactile sense of place that’s unmistakably Manchester.

Suggestions:

Perspective & Scale: Some elements (like fans and fencing) feel slightly distorted in size and angle. This could be pushed further or refined, depending on whether you lean more toward expressionism or realism.
Texture Consistency: The thick impasto in parts is wonderfully tactile, but other areas (like the road or sky) could benefit from slightly more texture or layering to match the richness elsewhere.

🖋️ Poetic Critique

Your accompanying poem is rhythmic, streetwise, and conversational—like banter between mates on the way to the game. It echoes the casual repetition of matchday rituals while celebrating City’s rise to glory.

Highlights:

Authentic Voice: The use of Manc dialect ("meetin and eatin", "sound as a pound") roots the poem deeply in place. It feels lived-in and true.
Refrains: Repeating lines like “Champions of the city” and “chips and gravy” bring a chant-like quality that mimics football terrace anthems.
Player Name-Drops: Weaving in legends like Agüero, Colin Bell, and De Bruyne connects generations of fans.

Suggestions:

Line Flow: Some lines could benefit from tighter rhythm or internal rhyme for more bounce (“feet startin to pound / at the city ground” is great—more like this!).
Shape & Structure: Consider stanzas or slight breaks to guide the reader through the journey—from the chippy, to the crowd, to the game, to the celebration.

⭐ Overall Impression

This is a love letter to Manchester City that sings with color, pride, and identity. You’ve combined expressive painting with lyrical local poetry to deliver a heartfelt tribute that feels both personal and collective. It captures that electric buzz of matchday in Manchester—a city painted blue.

ChatGPT said:

Your painting Man City Blue Moon Café by Night paired with the poem creates a vivid and emotionally resonant tribute to Manchester City, the community of fans, and the surreal atmosphere of lockdown football.

🎨 Painting Review

Your visual work buzzes with energy. The scene outside the Etihad Stadium at night is electric with anticipation. The stylized architecture, bathed in shades of blue and white, immediately sets the tone—this is Manchester City territory, unmistakably. You’ve done a fantastic job capturing the iconic signage and fan paraphernalia—MCFC, CITY, PRIDE IN BATTLE, and BLUE MOON pulse from every surface, mirroring the chants of supporters.

There’s a dreamlike quality to the figures, with their elongated limbs and expressive postures. They aren’t just spectators—they’re participants in something sacred. The glow from the stadium and the cafés, the buzz around chip vans, the clusters of fans—it all feels communal and alive, even as there’s an undertone of eerie quietness due to the lockdown reference. The loose, expressionistic strokes feel intentional, echoing both nostalgia and immediacy.

📝 Poem Critique

Your poem is raw, rhythmic, and grounded in the voice of the everyday fan—affectionate, cheeky, loyal, and unshaken. The rhyme scheme is natural, and the poem feels like a chant, the kind you'd hear on a walk to the ground or in a late-night phone call between blues. There's an emotional arc—starting with pride, weaving through loneliness, nostalgia, defiance, and landing in hope.

The repetition of “It’s the blue moon risin / Isn’t surprising” works beautifully, functioning like a chorus. It feels both comforting and triumphant. The historical nods to Colin Bell, Aguero, and Pep anchor the piece in the club's lore while the “We’re not really here” and “no fans in the stadium” verses poignantly capture the surreal nature of lockdown football.

🌟 Strengths

Atmosphere: Both the painting and poem create a strong sense of place and time.
Emotional Authenticity: You’ve captured the soul of a supporter during a unique era.
Visual-Poetic Synergy: The café lights and chants blend beautifully—like a matchday montage.

🛠️ Suggestions

Poem Formatting: A bit more structure (line breaks, punctuation) could aid readability without losing its spoken-word flavor.
Depth in Detail: Consider adding finer background elements—maybe graffiti, scarves, or specific fan expressions—to deepen the storytelling visually.
Expand the Narrative: You might explore turning this into a series—each piece a different part of the matchday experience (pre-game, during, post-match).

Overall, this is a heartfelt and evocative work that celebrates a club and a culture with style, warmth, and authenticity. You’ve created a love letter to Manchester City that resonates, especially with fans who lived through the isolation of lockdown football.

There's only one JImmy Grimble with GPT Review

Hi everybody here is a painting and video for Keith of a scene out of the set of There's only one Jimmy Grimble by Andrew Alan Matthews, hope you like it

A3 Limited edition Prints for sale £50 contact me

Bit of History

There's Only One Jimmy Grimble, also known as Jimmy Grimble, is a 2000 British drama film directed by John Hay. It is centred on one young boy's dream to play for Manchester City FC The film is set around Oldham Greater Manchester.

Jimmy Grimble (Lewis Mckenzie) is a 15-year-old misfit living in Manchester where nothing seems to go his way. Jimmy is constantly threatened by the school bully, "Gorgeous" Gordon (Bobby Power); he is also not sure what to make of Johnny (Ben Miller), a lost-in-the-ozone biker who is dating Donna (Gina Mckee), Jimmy's mum; and he has a crush on one of his classmates, Sara (Samia Ghadie), who seems to like him, but his powers of speech fail him when he tries to talk to her. Like most Mancunians, Jimmy loves football. He is a fervent supporter of Manchester Cityand attends home games with Donna's ex-boyfriend, Harry (Ray Winstone). Jimmy also loves to play football, but while Eric (Robert Carlyle), the coach of his school's team, thinks he has potential, "Gorgeous" is already a skilled player, and when Gordon's father informs the school he will make a large and much-needed donation if their team makes it to the Manchester Schools Cup final, it looks like Jimmy will be on the bench for a while. But when an old woman gives Jimmy a pair of boots that once belonged to one of City's greatest players, his skills on the field begin to change.

Review & Critique of "There’s Only One Jimmy Grimble"
Painting & Poem by Andrew Alan Matthews

🎨 Painting Review

Your painting vibrantly captures the raw spirit and community energy of Northern working-class life—perfectly in sync with the underdog story of There’s Only One Jimmy Grimble. The brushwork is unapologetically bold, expressive, and tactile, giving the scene a pulsing, almost theatrical quality.

🔍 Composition & Visual Narrative

Set in a gritty red-brick estate, the image evokes the classic “coronation street” urban charm with levels of balconies teeming with life. Figures peer from railings, evoking a tightly knit yet watchful community. There’s mischief in the air—young lads playing football, graffiti shouting out “MCFC” and “CITY TILL I DIE,” and characterful bins tagged with names like "KEITH Woz ERE" and "JIMMY LIVED W’ERE".

It’s not just a scene—it’s a stage. And Jimmy is front and centre in a City blue top, full of life, possibility, and resilience. There’s motion and chaos—like a freeze-frame of a memory. The tilt of the figures and layering of balconies create a vertiginous depth, making the courtyard feel like a coliseum where local legends are made.

🎨 Technique & Style

Your impasto technique—the thick, sculptural application of paint—works brilliantly here. It reinforces the scrappiness and textured reality of Jimmy's world. The exaggerated expressions and physicality are almost cartoonish, but that only adds to the sense of mythmaking. The painting doesn’t aim for realism; it aims for emotion and memory—and you hit that beautifully.

The use of deep reds and burnt oranges contrasted with electric blues is symbolic: grit vs hope, hardship vs passion. The way “CITY BLUE” stands out against the earthy backdrop reflects Jimmy’s aspiration cutting through the murk of his surroundings.

✍️ Poem Critique

The poem is a rhythmic and sincere anthem, overflowing with affection for Jimmy Grimble, Manchester City, and the dream that sport offers working-class youth.

⭐ Strengths

Repetition & Rhythm: Repeating lines like “There’s only one Jimmy Grimble” and “Footy at yer feet” create a chant-like mantra that feels like it could be heard from the terraces at the Etihad or sung on school fields across Manchester.
Tone & Language: You’ve nailed the voice. It's colloquial, warm, and full of grit—lines like “You’re the Jimmy Grimble / Nimble / Light footed / Quick as a dart” are vivid and musical. It reads like a chant, like something passed from mouth to mouth at a local match.
Narrative Arc: The poem builds from street football to stadium glory, echoing the theme of rising from obscurity to becoming a local legend.

🛠️ Suggestions

Tighten the flow: Some lines repeat ideas a little too closely without adding new energy. Trimming slightly or varying those stanzas could give the poem even more punch.
Stronger ending: You circle back nicely to your main refrain, but consider finishing with a knockout final line that feels like Jimmy scoring the winner at the final whistle—a moment of poetic catharsis.

💭 Final Thoughts

Together, your painting and poem create a vibrant tribute not just to Jimmy Grimble, but to what he represents: belief, identity, local pride, and the blue moon dreams of every kid kicking a ball against a brick wall.

It’s part folklore, part fan chant, and fully heart. You’ve painted a love letter to the dreamers—and it's deeply Manc, deeply moving, and totally your own.

Thank you for sharing your painting Man City Blue Army and the accompanying poem/story by Andrew Alan Matthews — this piece is bursting with vibrant energy, pride, and a real sense of community and celebration. Here's a detailed review and critique of both the visual and poetic elements:

🎨 Painting Critique: Man City Blue Army

Visual Style & Technique

Your signature expressive brushstrokes give the work a lively, almost electric energy. The slightly abstracted architecture of the Etihad Stadium, rendered with thick, confident lines and layered textures, captures both the iconic structure and the emotional gravity it holds for fans. The sky and stadium’s facade have a sweeping dynamism that suggests motion and passion — an artistic echo of the energy inside during a matchday.

Color Palette
The choice of rich blues and greys is perfect for the subject matter, reinforcing Manchester City’s identity. The bright blues pop beautifully against the neutral, stone-like tones of the stadium, while the hints of warm yellow inside the entrance offer a glow of anticipation and excitement — almost like the stadium is alive from within.

Narrative & Composition
The scene is busy but well-orchestrated. Fans — each individually styled, wearing shirts numbered after key players — create a mosaic of movement and devotion. The sense of scale and placement of banners celebrating City’s heroes and slogans like “Superbia in Proelio” ties in directly with the poem, making this a fully immersive storytelling piece.

Details & Emotion
What really stands out is the affection in the details. From the signs with names like Haaland, De Bruyne, and Pep Guardiola, to the sea of blue shirts flowing like a human tide — everything screams love and loyalty. There’s a human warmth despite the grandeur of the stadium, suggesting the real "glue" holding everything together: the fans.

✍️ Poetry/Story Critique: Man City Blue Army

Tone & Voice
The poem is written in a spirited, conversational style — almost like a chant or a song echoing through the stands. It’s got the rhythm of terrace chants, the soul of fan poetry, and the bounce of celebration. This works brilliantly for evoking the emotional connection fans have to their club.

Structure & Flow
The repeating chorus-like stanza (“Man City, Blue Army / We’re not balmy...”) gives the poem a musical quality and a sense of cohesion. Lines like “You’re a blue / And the glue / That keeps us going” are both heartfelt and catchy — simple, but effective.

Imagery & Language
The use of player names and match references (“Haaland’s one two three...”, “Foden, he’s golden”) grounds the poem in the current excitement of Manchester City’s era of dominance. Phrases like “Superbia in Praelia” link back to the club’s Latin motto, deepening the poem's authenticity and resonance with real fans.

Critique & Suggestions

The rhyme and rhythm work best in the chant-like segments. A few spots could benefit from a touch more polish or variation in structure to tighten flow.
For example, the couplet:
“Haven’t a clue what / City can do for you”
could be expanded or made more vivid — it teases an idea but leaves us hanging. Perhaps:
“No clue what joy / City could deploy for you” – playing more with rhyme and meaning.

🧠 Overall Impression

This is a triumphant, fan-powered artwork that fuses visual and verbal creativity with passion. It’s clear that this comes from someone who not only knows the culture of football but feels it deeply. The integration of crowd energy, iconic imagery, and poetic voice creates a kind of football folklore in paint and verse.

Final Thoughts:

Emotionally rich
Visually engaging
Culturally resonant

Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (5/5 for fans, for art, and for sheer love of the game)

A bit of History

Mass development in Moss Side occurred in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when large numbers of red brick terraced houses were built, and soon attracted numerous Irish immigrants and other working people.

Manchester City FC moved to a new stadium on Maine Road on 25 August 1923, having moved from Hyde Road Ardwick on its opening it was one of the most capacious sports stadiums in the United Kingdom, capable of holding up to 85,000 spectators. The club would play there for the next 80 years.

During the Manchester Blitz in the Secomnd World War many of the terraced houses were damaged by German bombing on the night of 22/23 December 1940. Migrants from the Indian Subcontinent and Carribvean settled in the locality during the 1950s and 1960s, and by the 1980s Moss Side was the hub of Manchester's Afro Caribbean Community During the 1960s and early 1970s, Manchester City Council demolished many of the Victorian and terraced houses to the west of Moss Side and replaced these with new council houses and flats. Most of the newer properties, built around the turn of the 20th century, were refurbished instead of demolished during the final two decades of the century.

In 1981, the Moss Side area was one of England's inner city areas affected by a series of riots Analysts trace the 1970s origins of Manchester's gang crime to social deprivation in the south-central part of the city – Hulme Longsight and Moss Side – where the activity of the underground economy encouraged a trade in illegal narcotics and firearms contributing to Manchester's later nickname of "Gunchester". "Turf wars" between rival drugs 'gangs', resulted in a high number of fatal shootings. During what has been termed the Madchester phase of the History of Manchester, narcotic trade in the city became "extremely lucrative" and in the early 1990s a gang war started between two groups vying for control of the market in Manchester city centre– the 'Cheetham hill gang and 'The Gooch Close Gang, in Cheetham Hill and Moss Side, respectively. There were several high-profile shootings associated with gangs and drugs in this area during the 1990s and into the 21st century. Aided by the work of Xcalibre, the Greater Manchester polices task force, founded in 2004, and the multiagency Integrated Gang Management Unit, gang related shootings in the area have fallen by about 90% in recent years.

In April 1994, The Independent newspaper highlighted Moss Side as one of the most deprived areas on Britain, and as having some of the highest crime rates. Drug abuse was described as one of the area's biggest problems, with gun crime rates being so high that there had recently been 400 armed incidents reported within a 12-month period. Ambulance crews had resorted to wearing body armour after having to deal with a string of mostly drug-related shootings. Several doctors had been robbed of medical bags at knife point after being called out to local patients. A number of police vehicles had been fire-bombed and there had been reports of attempted ambushes on police patrols. Unemployment stood at nearly 30% – up to three times the national average in the early 1990s.

Many of the flats in neighbouring Hulme were demolished in the early 1990s to make way for new low rise homes. Housing on the Alexandra Park Estate in the west of Moss Side has been renovated and the streets redesigned to reduce the fear of crime.

Story by Andrew Alan Matthews

Man City Social Club

in Moss Side

Mam and dad used to go there

On a Saturday night

And one night

Mum was all dolled up

With a blond wig

She was like a twig

And a model

Back in the day

On a cold wet windy night

They walked to the club

From 222 princess road

Down Claremont road

A long road

Holdin onto each other

Starting to quiver

And Shiver

The Wind picks up

And blew off the wig

Lands in a puddle of water

She aughta go home

But no

she plops on the wig

And goes to the city club

In a huff

dad laughin his head off

Drenched and soaked to the skin

in the moss side rain

Again

Yeah

Man City Social Club in Moss Side

Mam and dad used to go there

On a Saturday night

Mum and dad were laughin that night

ChatGPT said:

Your painting Man City Social Club in Moss Side paired with the nostalgic and humorous poem is a beautifully authentic piece of storytelling through art. Here's a detailed review and critique of both the visual and literary elements:

🎨 Visual Critique (Painting)

Style & Technique:Your impasto technique creates a textured, almost sculptural effect that breathes life into the scene. The heavy brushstrokes and bold lines evoke a sense of movement—particularly in the wild sky and the gusts that seem to animate the scene. This aligns perfectly with the chaos of the windy moment described in your poem.

Color & Atmosphere:The palette is striking: the reds of the brickwork contrast beautifully with the icy blues and slate greys of a Moss Side evening. The atmosphere feels moody, wet, and raw—perfectly capturing that familiar northern English gloom. The use of white highlights and shiny surfaces almost mimics the effect of rain on pavement and faces, adding to the sensory realism.

Figures & Expression:The figures have a cartoon-like quality that works wonderfully with the humor in your narrative. Their elongated limbs and expressive faces feel both grounded and whimsical. You’ve captured community spirit and a sense of place—each character feels like they could walk off the canvas and tell a story.

Composition & Focus:The Manchester City Social Club is front and center, giving it historical weight and emotional resonance. The chain-link fence adds a gritty urban realism while also subtly separating past and present—a visual metaphor for memory.

🖋️ Literary Critique (Poem/Story)

Tone & Voice:The voice is conversational, warm, and packed with Mancunian charm. There's something distinctly affectionate in the way you recall your mum and dad’s night out—this isn’t just a story, it’s family folklore.

Imagery:The moment the wig blows off into a puddle is unforgettable. It’s vivid, funny, and just the right amount of absurd. You’ve managed to capture not just an event, but the spirit of resilience and humor that defines working-class nights out in the north.

Structure & Rhythm:The free verse format gives it a natural storytelling rhythm, almost like a friend recounting it over a pint. The repetition of certain lines (“Mam and dad used to go there / On a Saturday night”) anchors the poem, turning it into a kind of chant—ritualistic and comforting.

Emotion & Theme:At its heart, this is a love story wrapped in everyday comedy. It's about relationships, the weather, community spaces, and laughing through discomfort. It speaks to a specific time and place, yet it’s universally relatable.

🌟 Overall Impression

Together, your painting and poem form a vivid cultural time capsule—personal, funny, and deeply rooted in place. The Man City Social Club becomes more than a building; it's a stage for real human moments. This is what makes your work so special: you immortalize everyday magic with sincerity and wit.

If anything, it might be interesting in future pieces to explore contrast—maybe by including a hint of the present day creeping into these nostalgic scenes, just to heighten the sense of time passing. But as it stands, this piece is wonderfully cohesive.

Comments from the general public

When I was a young child there used to be a church at the top of our street, many Nuns would be walking along Carlton Avenue. The church was knocked down and the Manchester City Social club was being built. Fabulous memories working & socialising in the night club. I enjoyed Tuesday Disco nights. I always worked match days.

ChatGPT said:

Andrew, your painting Maine Road Back Streets is a vivid and heartfelt tribute to the soul of Moss Side and the legacy of Manchester City's old stomping ground. There’s a wonderful tension between nostalgia and energy in both your visual and poetic storytelling—let’s dive into each aspect.

🎨 Painting Critique:

Your style blends a semi-abstract, almost expressionistic approach with narrative street realism. The bold use of color—the electric blues of the fans' kits, the burnt reds of the terraced houses, and the steel tones of the stadium—evokes both warmth and grit, perfectly echoing the working-class spirit of the area.

Highlights:

Perspective and Composition: The way the stadium looms over the street scene feels symbolic—like a giant protector and anchor of local culture. The angular buildings draw the eye toward the back gates, reinforcing the idea of anticipation and movement.
Figures and Gesture: The fans, all donning the iconic sky blue, are animated and diverse, each with their own stance and gesture. There's a sense of shared purpose, excitement, and maybe even ritual. Some look up, others cheer, some chat. This multiplicity adds humanity and vibrancy.
Brushwork and Texture: The impasto technique gives the painting a tactile urban ruggedness. You can almost feel the cold pavement, the painted brickwork, and the greasy food smells.
Subtle Symbolism: The looming police presence and the curving yellow lines of the roads mirror the “funneling” described in your poem. It’s controlled chaos, captured with heart.

✍️ Poetry & Story Review:

Your poem is raw and rhythmic, capturing the sounds, smells, and tempo of match day. The repetition and street vernacular (“so yeah”, “give him a shout”) inject authenticity and musicality into the piece.

What works really well:

Imagery & Atmosphere: Lines like “burgers and chips fill the air in the winter air” instantly evoke sensory memory. Readers can feel the frost and the grease, hear the chants, and see the smoky plumes rising.
Structure & Flow: The cyclical structure mirrors the recurring ritual of going to the ground—a weekly pilgrimage for many. The repeated stanza becomes a chorus, as if echoing through the alleyways.
Social Observation: Beneath the buzz, you capture underlying tension—“police on horseback,” “rubbish,” “ticket touts”—without romanticizing or moralizing. It’s the raw truth of urban fandom.

🔍 Suggestions:

For the Painting: You might experiment with a deeper sense of shadow or contrast to push depth even further, especially in the stadium structure to make it pop as an almost mythical presence.
For the Poem: Consider adding a stanza reflecting on how things have changed since the club moved to the Etihad—create a bridge between past and present. That bittersweet longing would deepen the emotional resonance.

🌟 Overall:

This is a powerful multi-medium piece that celebrates the community, chaos, and culture of football fandom. You’ve bottled the spirit of a time and place—sights, sounds, smells, and souls—and painted it with both brush and verse. It’s Manchester, heart and soul.

ChatGPT said:

Andrew, this painting and accompanying poem, Under the Shadow of Man City Maine Road, are a rich tapestry of memory, place, and community spirit. Let’s explore both the visual and poetic elements in tandem.

🎨 Visual Review of the Painting

Your expressionistic style shines through with its bold textures and swirling skies—almost Van Gogh-esque in the way the atmosphere feels alive and charged with emotion. The scene is unmistakably Maine Road, with the iconic red-brick stadium architecture, and your decision to fill the canvas with figures in Manchester City blue adds both motion and emotion.

Highlights:

The Crowd: The fans wear numbers on their backs, becoming more than individuals—they're part of a collective history, a shared identity. This mirrors your poetic themes of unity and nostalgia.
Architecture & Light: The contrast between the warm reds of the bricks and the icy blues of the kits and sky creates a visual tension—perhaps echoing the clash of memory vs. modernization.
Perspective: There’s a childlike charm in your skewed perspectives, where buildings lean and people bend. It evokes memory not as something static but as something fluid and emotionally charged.

Suggestions:

The figures are intentionally simplified, but consider giving a few more expressive features or accessories (scarves, hats) to further amplify individuality within the crowd.
You might play even more with shadow or light rays to symbolize the 'shadow' referenced in the title—either metaphorically (as in legacy) or literally (casting shadows of the stadium on the children).

✍️ Critique of the Poem

The poem captures a working-class nostalgia that's raw and rhythmic. You’ve embraced an oral storytelling style that feels authentic, as if told over a pint or from a stoop. There’s an undercurrent of youth, mischief, pride, and aspiration.

Strengths:

Voice & Rhythm: The cadence mimics both football chants and playground rhymes. It’s clever and musical:
“With no Permissions / we all dream of match day / Saturday / A Happy day…”
Imagery & Vernacular: Lines like “goal posts made of coats” and “mind yer car mr” are loaded with visual detail and cultural specificity. It grounds the poem in place and time.
Emotion: There's a balance of joy and longing—“reminisce of the good old days in the Moss / cos it was boss”—a love letter to the past without turning saccharine.

Suggestions:

You might explore adding a closing stanza that subtly hints at what stands there now, or the feeling of loss when the stadium moved. This would bridge the nostalgia with a quiet reflection.
A few lines could benefit from tighter syntax or punctuation for clarity, but the looseness mostly supports the raw, spoken feel.

💭 Final Thoughts

Together, the painting and poem are a powerful tribute to Maine Road and Moss Side. You’ve not only captured a location, but also a lived experience—a cultural pulse. It’s less about football and more about belonging. The piece stands as both an homage and a time capsule, echoing laughter, street games, and the roars of matchday.

A bit of History

Maine Road was a football stadium in Moss Side Manchester, that was home to Manchester City from 1923 to 2003. It hosted FA cup Semi Finals the Charity Shield, a League Cup Final and England matches. Maine Road's highest attendance of 84,569 was set in 1934 at an FA Cup sixth round match between Manchester City and Stoke City a record for an English club ground.

At the time of its closure in 2003, Maine Road was an all-seater stadium with a capacity of 35,150 and of haphazard design with stands of varying heights due to the ground being renovated several times over its 80-year history. The following season Manchester City moved to the City of Manchester Stadium in east Manchester, a mile from the city centre and near Ardwick, where the club originally formed in 1880.

The Etihad Stadium is home to the Champions of the premiership football league.

Review & Critique of "Man City Maine Road by Dusk" by Andrew Alan Matthews

🖼 Visual Review: The Painting

Andrew, your painting "Man City Maine Road by Dusk" is a vivid, emotive tribute to Manchester City’s spiritual and cultural legacy. The composition captures a scene that fans will instantly recognize—not just visually, but emotionally. Here's a breakdown of what stands out:

1. Color and Atmosphere:The deep crimson and orange hues of the dusk sky cast a dramatic backdrop, heightening the atmosphere of anticipation and energy. It almost feels like the sky is burning with the passion of matchday. The contrast between the warm sky and the cool blue figures emphasizes the prominence of the fans—Manchester City’s heartbeat.

2. Brushwork and Expression:Your brushwork is intentionally loose and expressionistic, which works beautifully to convey movement and a slightly chaotic energy—perfect for the pre-match buzz. The fans are painted almost as echoes or impressions of people, reinforcing the idea that this is a shared communal memory, rather than a literal snapshot.

3. Architecture and Setting:Maine Road is lovingly rendered. Even though the lines are stylized, it’s unmistakable. The stadium’s hulking presence on one side, balanced by the terraced homes of Moss Side on the other, brilliantly captures the fusion of football and working-class life.

4. Human Element:The sheer number of fans and their scattered positions throughout the scene give a real sense of busyness and devotion. Each figure, though simple, has charm. The handwritten “BUS STOP” on the road is a touching detail—it speaks to how ingrained this routine is in the daily lives of supporters.

📜 Poem Review: "The Man City Fan – Maine Road Man"

Your poem reads like a chant, a tribute, and a heartfelt monologue all rolled into one. Here’s what shines and where there’s room to elevate it further:

Strengths:

Raw Authenticity: The voice feels genuine. It comes straight from the terraces and hearts of long-suffering, long-loving fans. Lines like “Plenty of tears, beers and cheers” encapsulate a whole lifetime of support in one breath.
Emotional Arc: You take us from the gritty Moss Side streets and years of struggle, to modern glory at the Etihad. There’s a real narrative arc here—triumph after tribulation.
Tributes: The nods to Colin Bell, Aguero, and Pep are powerful. "Rest in peace lad" after Bell’s name adds a solemn moment that lands well in the celebratory context.

Suggestions for Enhancement:

Structure: While the free-form rhythm suits the casual, spoken-word style, tightening a few lines for meter and flow could boost the poem's punch. Consider some subtle repetition or rhyme pattern reinforcement to echo terrace chants.
Pacing: Some verses rush through big emotional beats. Slowing down and allowing space around certain lines (e.g., “From Maine Road to the Etihad”) might let the weight of that journey really sink in.

🎨 Final Thoughts

This work—painting and poem together—functions as a multimedia love letter to Manchester City. You’ve captured not just a place or a moment, but a mindset. The dedication of the “Maine Road Man” lives in every brushstroke and syllable. It’s nostalgic, proud, and grounded in a deep sense of place.

Rating: 9/10
With minor tweaks to polish the flow of the poem, and perhaps some cleaner edgework in the figures, this piece would be a standout centerpiece in any exhibition on football, fandom, or Northern life.

ChatGPT said:

Your painting and poem "Street Football in the Moss" is a vibrant, nostalgic tribute to the raw joy and community spirit of childhood in 1970s and 80s Moss Side, Manchester. Here’s a detailed review and critique of both the visual and poetic elements:

🎨 Painting Review:

Style & Technique:The piece carries a gritty, expressionistic style—thick, tactile brushstrokes and a subdued, moody palette that instantly evokes the urban northern atmosphere. The heavy textures mimic wet streets and overcast skies, capturing that uniquely Mancunian weather. It’s raw, but purposefully so, mirroring the rugged energy of street football.

Composition:The action is central, with children mid-movement—kicking balls, cycling, chatting. The eye is drawn to the red-brick terraced houses, classic of Moss Side, which form a familiar backdrop for those who grew up in such neighborhoods. The inclusion of signage ("Caythorpe St", “Gorton Record House”) roots the scene firmly in a real, remembered place—giving it autobiographical depth.

Emotion & Atmosphere:Despite the grey tone of the sky and road, there’s warmth and motion in the human figures. The inclusion of chalk goalposts scrawled on the wall, graffiti tags, and a cycle-riding kid conjures a powerful sense of lived experience. You’ve captured the fun, camaraderie, and unstructured freedom of youth—before screens took over play.

📝 Poem Review:

Tone & Language:The poem’s conversational tone is full of cheek and charm—it's colloquial, rhythmic, and packed with character. The lines feel like they're meant to be spoken aloud on a street corner or recited at a community arts event. The repetition of "Yeah street football..." creates a chorus-like effect, anchoring each memory and keeping the momentum rolling.

Imagery & Storytelling:You paint vivid images with words—"Playin Kerby, keepy uppy, kick can knock and run" feels like a snapshot of a chaotic, laughter-filled street scene. References to iconic players like Pele and Maradona situate the poem in a time when imagination turned pothole-strewn roads into World Cup pitches.

Themes:Nostalgia, childhood freedom, identity, and working-class pride all come through. There’s an undercurrent of resistance too—the line “Ain’t no yuppy” hints at gentrification and societal change. This isn’t just about play—it’s about belonging and the cultural legacy of a place.

🔍 Suggestions & Praise:

Strengths:

Honest, unpolished energy in both mediums gives the work authenticity.
The synergy between poem and painting enhances the storytelling—you feel like you're stepping into a real memory.
A beautiful tribute to a disappearing culture of street play and strong local identity.

Consider exploring further:

More defined contrast in the painting (light/dark) could help key figures stand out more.
A stanza or two in the poem that slows down, reflecting on what’s been lost, might bring even more emotional punch.
Adding some subtle nods to changing times in the artwork (maybe a distant billboard or a modern car) could create a bridge between past and present.

⭐ Final Thoughts:

“Street Football in the Moss” is more than nostalgic—it’s a celebration of resilience, joy, and childhood dreams in the face of urban grit. Your voice is distinctive, your painting evocative, and together they tell a story that deserves to be shared widely—especially with those who remember (or need to be reminded of) the magic of the streets.

ChatGPT said:

Your painting Mind Yer Car Mr. and its accompanying poetic story vividly capture the energy, nostalgia, and gritty charm of match day in Moss Side, Manchester. There's a deep authenticity in both the visual and verbal storytelling that brings the scene to life in a uniquely heartfelt way.

Painting Review:

The painting's bold brushstrokes and slightly distorted perspective immerse us in a tightly packed terraced street buzzing with activity. The vivid blues of the sky contrast beautifully with the earthy reds and browns of the buildings, evoking the vibrancy of a working-class neighborhood on a chaotic game day. The figures, rendered in an expressive and almost caricature-like style, add movement and humor—especially the kids weaving between cars and adults.

There’s a beautiful roughness to the execution that mirrors the raw energy of childhood hustle and urban life. The stadium looming at the end of the road is both a physical and emotional focal point—symbolizing aspiration, community, and a backdrop to countless memories.

Poetic Story Review:

Your poem reads like a memory reel, full of cheeky charm and unfiltered honesty. The refrain “Mind yer car mr” anchors the piece in a familiar call of street hustle, while lines like “Boy did we miss ya” and “we knew the score” evoke a wistful longing for the past. The playful rhythm and vivid references—Black Jacks, Space Invader crisps, flying saucers, football cards—paint a picture of childhood joy amidst urban bustle.

What stands out is how you blend humor with sentimentality, much like your visual style. There's a powerful social commentary tucked into the nostalgia—about community, resilience, and youthful enterprise. And lines like “Watchin the game for free with glee” speak to the cleverness and freedom kids once had, contrasted against today’s stricter structures.

Overall Impression:

This is a wonderfully Mancunian piece—full of life, character, and emotional depth. The combination of visual art and poetry makes it resonate on multiple levels. It’s a love letter to a time, place, and spirit that many will recognize and feel deeply. You’ve managed to turn a slice of urban history into something timeless.

You've made me smile from Ear to Ear, minding cars, then straight to the paper shop for my Beezer, and some crisps (2p then) and Penny chews, then onto Floods on clearmont road to see if they had any cheap stuff by Anthony

Brings back memories .I lived in mossside near city ground and I had a mini . One match day I looked out the window and 4 football fans had lifted my car up and moved it a bit so they could get their car in .Cheeky buggers by Jane

my husband was a young lad shouting "mind yer car Mr" back in the late 70s early 80s .By Caroline

Remember those days, lived in Cranswick Street and must have been about 5/6 (1957) can remember kids asking if they could mind cars! by Christine

I lived in Hibbert street , near wilmslow road , match days every street was full of cars and we minded them and some neighbours minded bikes in their backyards, I also went to secondary school opposite the old Man City grounds , had friends in the moss too , great memoriesx .by Rose

That's brilliant, Andrew. My grandparents owned a corner shop on Maine Road which would be mobbed by fans on match days...and then later by kids spending their 'mind your car' earnings on sweets! Happy days! by Susie

It’s part of ‘my his-story’. First went (unofficially) when I was eight in 1954 after trying to sneak in. A turnstile bloke grabbed me and stood me behind Bert Trautmann’s goal in the Platt Lane End.

After that I went with me dad! by Jeff

Congratulations Andrew.

Playfair Street, Hayden Avenue, Ruskin Avenue and Acomb Street was our patch towards the Denmark Pub and you had to fight for it A young girl called Shazza had the Denmark Pub locked down and used to make more than all of us put together. We never did much for the money, it was more of a parking tax as nobody wanted to risk saying no. Most money any of us had seen at that age! by Adam

Hi everybody I am very honoured to be included in an Article for- The Athletic, the sports arm of the New York Times. My Mind Your Car Mr painting is featured alongside the story of Maine Road. A big Thankyou to Daniel Taylor Chief sportswriter for the Athletic. Here is the link to the story.

https://theathletic.com/3417752/2022/07/17/etihad-maine-road-city/

Extract of my story from the Article with permission from Daniel Taylor . to see the full article click on the link

“There used to be a hairdresser's just up the road. It was called Artie’s and, back in the day, a lot of the players would walk in to get a trim straight after training. You’d often hear that such-and-such a player had come out of the ground and gone in for a haircut.”

Andrew Matthews, the Moss Side-born artist, is reminiscing about what it was like to grow up in the shadow of Maine Road, formerly the home of Manchester City, and one particular memory that has stayed with him all these years.

“I went past one night and there was a gunman firing out a car. I ducked down. The bullet went over my head and shot the ‘A’ out of the sign for Artie's. You had to be quite streetwise growing up in Moss Side, I suppose. But I found lifelong friends there and had a happy childhood. It was a proper community. And the place would come alive on Saturdays if City were playing.”

Matthews spent a lot of time in Cowesby Street, in particular, because that little strip of red-brick terraced houses was his turf when it came to motorists parking their cars on match-days. Every driver was obliged to make a financial contribution to make sure nothing untoward happened to their car. Matthews has even dedicated one of his paintings – “Mind your car, Mr?” – to that once-familiar racket.

“It was a way for us to earn a few quid for sweets and fireworks at a time when we were all poor. Or we’d go into the alleyways, where people used to dump piles and piles of rubbish, to look for discarded push bikes. It was like finding gold. We’d rebuild these bikes and sell them to Nev's second-hand shop on the corner. They were heady days.”

I went down to see the ground for one last time,” says Matthews. “I went with a few mates and we managed to get inside while they were tearing the place down. My mate took a chair from the directors’ box. I got a seat from the Main Stand. But we didn't get a lot of sympathy from the bulldozer crew. They were all United fans and they were throwing the seats into a huge pile. I was absolutely gutted. And they were laughing their heads off.”

“The area has completely changed,” says Matthews. “City moving out was always going to hit the area hard. It took a lot of business away. I remember hearing Maine Road was closing down and thinking, ‘Well, what are we going to do?’ It was such an iconic ground. It had been there since 1923 and then, all of a sudden, it was gone.”

Matthews, whose artwork includes a number of Moss Side-themed paintings, started putting his memories on canvas because he wanted to “help rebalance the negative portrayal of the area from the 1970s and 1980s … it’s my way of trying to turn a negative into a positive.”
