this weekend's other matches...

Absolutely brilliant cross for the goal, and who's on the end of it? I hope my good friend Bob feels how I do about RvP

[Moonchesteri]

Nathan Dyer got a straight red today so he'll miss the match next week

[WiganBlue]

How much longer does AVB have?

WTF! I have Kun as captain in my fantasy team with Silva as vice captain. My third City player is Richards. I also have Dyer.
Looking fucking shit this week!

Tell me about it Nool, I have the same in my FL and my other striker didn't get any minutes today and one of my subs is injured so I'll end up with 10 players !!
Good City day, bad FL day !!

[kinkylola]

similar situation for me as well ... aguero capt., silva ... luckily my third is kompo, so I get some points. I do also have RVP, and i feel really bad about not making him captain now. never again.

AVB must be gone ... awful awful from them. Scolari must be wondering how he managed to get fired while still second in the league. (it was scolari, right? memory is cloudy)

Re AVB: If not now then he has a run coming up that will tip the balance unless he turns it around.

Birmingham away in the FA Cup...... lose that and he will go
Stoke at home in the league......lose that and he will go
Napoli at home in the CL.....lose that and he will go.
Then away to City...just cannot see him getting that far. Our chance to break the run of league wins at home will be against a Chelsea team with a new manager....its nailed on!

agreed. they're going to play out of their skin against us.

[phips]

that loss today is surely the end for AVB...maybe he wont get sacked until the end of the season but I think today was the tipping point.

Doesnt AVB's future depend more on the remit he was given by Abramovitch?

If it was to continue to keep Chelsea at the top, his arse will be very twitchyafter today.
If he was asked to overhaul the team and get rid of the old order and rebuild a new team to challenge in the future, he may well survive. That would mean a longer period of change for Chelsea and the dumping of the likes of Terry, Lampard and a few others.

That's what I think his remit is mate, getting rid of the big earners and saving a lot of money for Roman and the club in regard to FFPR. It's whether he still wants the club to be seriously competitive though or is willing to see things through.

I had a shit day for fantasy as well.
Still hoping I can win the man city fans league. 3rd place right now...

[CityGer]

Cattermole is as thick as pig shit.

Seriously, he'd be half decent if he had a brain.

[ashton287]

All just kicked off in new v sun. Funny.

[PeterParker]

How is that a penalty?

[ashton287]

1-0 sunderland. Penalty. Newcastle had their 3rd yellow in the space of about 7 minutes.

Williamson pulling the shirt. Softer then balo's 1st that got ignored yesterday.

[ashton287]

Mike dean is the first ref to get into double figures giving pens this season. Must have reffed a few rag games.

[CityGer]

How is that a penalty?

It wasn't. You not listening to Waddle?? It was a Pelanty.

[ashton287]

Mike dean has been so inconsistent here.

Between 10-35 minutes he was booking Newcastle players for fun. Completely ignored a foul and then an allow to the face on Gutierrez. Then decided after booking half the Newcastle team and giving Sunderland a pen they wouldn't of got against the scum he was going to let the game play.

What could of been a good game fucked by inconsistent reffing AGAIN.

How is it not a penalty?
