GPs Beard 0 Posted April 10, 2017 What a fabulous clip! Thanks City, really brings the old Nest to life (and makes the cliff wall even more scary) . I think we should suggest this as half time entertainment next year. I''m sure the groundsman wont mind! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
