***official City v Rags FA Cup thread***

[s1ty m]

I can't watch any more of this. It's a disgrace. Leaving Hart and Clichy out defies explantion.

However, the sending off at Chelsea, the Silva nailed on penalty at Chelsea, the goal ruled out at West Brom, the offside at Sunderland, the sending off against Liverpool, now this ridiculous decison on Kompany. Football is totally bent.

As for Kolarov, plenty wanted to give him more time, etc when his total shitness was there for all to see many moons ago. He is absolutely useless and an utter liability. Mancini picking him otday is a bed-shitting of planetry proportions. That is squarely on Mancini, plain and simple.

I don't know what else to add, it's just horrendous.

[Nijinsky_1995]

Kolarov=utter shite
dont understand why he drops players who are clearly better???

[bluebananamilksheikh]

I was looking on the site of the FA and Vinnie will be suspended 4 games: the double with Dippers and Wigan and Spuds. Horrible.

Why 4?

[usedtothespin]

Fons Groenendijk calls us the moral winners on Dutch tv. I think he's right.

[Bluez]

Do we have the right to appeal a straight red?

Yes but we won't get it as the obvious conclusion would be that Rooney influenced Foy and they would never admit that

[Dunnylad]

Of course we can appeal a straight red - at this rate though the fa will reject it & add an extra match on

So it fucks up our entire season due to the African Cup timing??

Who can come in and centre back? Not Richards.

Savic. Onouha isn't on the Premiership list.


I think Bob must put Hargreaves in today.

[Fesan]

According to BBC, Kompany will miss four because it's his second red this season.

I thought only carlingcup cards carried over to PL? Also this is an appeal for sure?

[Douglas Higginbottom]

ok some balance :)

The team selection is not why we are 3 nil down with the possible exception of Kolarov. Panti cant be blamed for anything.The refs decision if totally the key to the scoreline.At the time we were one down but actually playing quite well and moving the ball around ok.

The scum goal was a very good one and you could say nobody was to blame.Then came their 2nd which was a bit unlucky for us withe way the ball bounced around but what was Nigel doing? And then a bit of Kolarov nonsense and it's threatening to be a disaster.I can only hope that Mancini and the team have enough about them to stop that disaster becoming reality.

And for those who were saying the scum were finished,think again.I know everything has gone for them and the ref is their best player but this is reality.They won't lie down and we have to just keep going.Get past this game and then come back strong to beat the scousers plus win the next 2 games in the prem while Vinnie is away.The league is the big priority.

Why 4?

Because it's Vinnie's second of the season

Do we have the right to appeal a straight red?

we can appeal but i doubt we will as it could be increased

[Dameerto]

Despite what those dickheads are talking about in the studio (two footed challenge my arse) I haven't seen a clearer case of wrong decision that I can recall.

[paulmclaren]

Samir Nasri needs bringing off and selling, he looks pathetic out there not ran a yyard, shocking.
Kolorov, the sooner he is sold the better, and my god time for touch line technology , that was fucking comicle, bung much mr ferguscum?

[Dameerto]

we've got to - it's so clear cut.

[paddyblue]

the whole mess is totally the fault of mancini

[Bluemoon16]

Mancini didnt fuck up anything, nor did the keeper.. Its just a Cup tie.. The league is our priority, so let the rags have few more games to tire them up along the way.. My only concern is a humiliating scoreline !

[Michael Brookes]

Disappointed with de Jong do far. Referee has ruined the game, such a shame

[Blue In Bolton]

I hope Mancini screens this game for the team to watch just before we play these cunts in the league just to wind our team up to give them another good hiding.

[carl_feedthegoat]

Disgusted in Mancini...how can he replace a keeper? why ? can someone tell me why ?

None of those goals were Pantillmons fault. I don't really think even Mancini was to blame here, we were comfortably in control, playing to our game plan and it looked like we were going to take them apart. You can't account for your captain getting incorrectly sent off ten minutes in.

The 3rd goal the keep knocked the ball straight to a fuckign scum player...it was his fault.

[Lee_R]

We have to appeal that card.
