***Official Notts County v City match thread***

[Green & Blue]

if given does not get a chance now he should demand a transfer

Yeah i think he deserves a recall, Hart has been out of sorts recently

[Sister of fu]

How many times has the cunt said "the worlds richest club." We should think of changing our name.

[blues2win]

What a cross by Kolarov. Defended well in fairness.

Positives. We're still in the cup. Micah played well. Vieira was pretty good too. Dzeko off the mark. Feed the Dzek and he'll score!

Negatives. Another bloody game. Micah's injured. Shit defending from set pieces. Bloody commentators who couldn't get our name out without mentioning how rich we are. Tossers.

Apologies for trying to talk up Jo a bit. Dogshite as usual overall. Milner was too. I don't like him playing wide he hasn't got the pace. He's better in central midfield and against Notts County he really should be good enough.

Hasn't he already done that?

[shawzy]

Our best player comes off..Hope hes ok..Well played Micah..Fuckin good shift.

Didnt look to good that injury, hope its not too serious.

Fingers crossed.
Im just glad that the games over Fu and we got away with a shite display..Cant be doin with these replays though..We should be killing these teams off..We do not have the knowhow to play a weakened team and still pick up results....The rags do it all the time and it pisses me off.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

it was a good run by the lad, just typical that he is now injured. Over al I still think we are bloody lucky to be level as we have been totaly shit

We could have easily been 2-0 up after 20 minutes. But after that, I agree that we have constantly got worse.

Hmmmmmmm

Yaya's chance on 8 minutes was massive, score that and they have to come out of their shell leaving us lots of space to exploit.

Cmon,you cannot refer to one chance earlyish in the first half and say IF that had gone in etc etc etc. Almost every team in every game could say IF that chance had gone in. IT DIDN'T go in.

We need to be creating a hell of a lot more than the odd chance and hope we take it. In the real world you tend not to score with the first chance you get so it's important that we attack a lot better than we did and create more chances.Today was a poor performance but we didn't deserve to lose and at least we are still in there.

[french_tony]

Well it could of been worse I suppose but very poor overall. Why Carl wasn't at least on the bench was a stupid decision.
And watching that twat Chiles is making me even more angry.

So do Arsenal and Chelsea...theers no fucking excuse to dish up the shit he did today.


AND WILL SOMEONE FUCKING INJURE JO..PLEASE..ONCE AND FOR ALL AS I CANNOT BARE TO WATCH THAT SACK OF SHIT ANYMORE.

MANCINI GOES SO FAR DOWN IN MY ESTIMATION WHEN HE CONTINUOUSLY PICKS THIS USELSSS CUNT.

[Beefymcfc]

I quite enjoyed the game to be fair. County played to thier strengths and we played to ours considering the starting line-up.

On the note of 'We Should've Spanked 'Em', I think Mancini was a little disrepectful. He know's his cup games and decided to throw a team together from nothing. Paddy should just hang up his boots (the lad must need the money) and the rest were like individuals.

Micah, quite easily, was MotM and Dzeko was lucky to stay on to get the goal (was there a Plan B).

Looking forward to the replay and hopefully Sir Mancini will win the game first.

[The Original Special One]

FFS we're shite in the air at the back. Lescott missed the ball and Micah just about did enough.

No wonder Lescott says he's happy at the club; being paid those big wages and playing shite like that!

[blues2win]

Absolutely fair Doug.

I do think the dreadful pitch was a leveller making it hard to impose our skill on them.

And as for zonal marking. The commentators are all making the points we've been making on this site. No block on the run and Dzeko was surprised by someone coming from behind him.

MAN TO MAN MARKING ROBERTO. FFS Weve got the players to do it. Today we had Boateng, Richards, Lescott, Vieira, Yaya, Dezko. Fucking giants.

[Sister of fu]

I bet we draw the rags.

[Beefymcfc]

The draw will be very kind.

[Beefymcfc]

City v Villa if we get through.

[blues2win]

Great to get a home draw but we'll have to play a full strength side. Another tough match which doesn't help our chase for league points.

United get Crawley Town. FFS

Very true....We should play a stronger team to start.....Get ahead, then bring on 2nd string and fringe players....I understand from Mancini's point of view we needed to rest a few today for Wed game, but this is the FA cup and we need to get our priorities right and start bagging trophies.

Ye Jo was wank.

[shawzy]

Rags v Crawely Town..Fuckin typical luck as usual.

[david yearsley]

Not just that but the others all avoided themselves - we´re the only all Prem and the scum get that - it makes you fuclin weep

Edit Spuds/ Ful v Not/Wigwam

[Bluez]

I have a worthless stream, so it's hard to tell, but it looks like we are really struggling with the poor pitch. We can't really get our passing game going with the ball bouncing like a ... well bouncing ball.

The pitch is playing fine and definitely not an excuse for anything.

The pitch was cutting up and casuing players to slip and fall over quite a bit, but itrs a lower league club and so that is to be expected.

one thing I am surprised about is surely there is some rule that the only markings allowed on the pitch should be the relevant ones? I was really surprised to see a solid white line across the whole pitch at the 6 yard line. Wehn you are bombing down the pitch and getting ready to put a cross in, it must put you off for a split second when you notice what looks like the end of the pitch?

[The Original Special One]

More anti-City bile by ex-City dud, Danny Mills; he'll always put the negative spin on things.
Says no manager will want a replay, whereas an unbiased commentator like Johnny Giles says players love playing games, and before the FA Cup all The Meeja were banging on about how Mancini needs to keep our BIG squad happy.

Personally, I think keeping as many of our squad players as close to match fitness as possible will serve us well on the run-in.

Despite what that bilious bald-headed dwarf says!
