***Official Brum vs City Thread***

[Slim]

Patrick Vieira was absolutely awful. Unforgivable in fact.

I hope he follows Chuckle into retirement tomorrow.

How shallow do our attacking options now look? We couldnt freshen it up at all.

Guidetti was on the bench and not used, but what's unforgivable was not playing Zabs from the start, not bringing him on when Richards went off, not bringing him on when de Jong went off.

THREE FUCKING OPPORTUNITIES, I AM SO FUCKING ANGRY AT THAT BALL-LESS WOP FUCKTARD WANKER AT THE MOMENT IT'S SURREAL. LET ADE GO OUT ON LOAN, KEEP JO. PUT JO ON THE BENCH, LEAVE SWP OUT COMPLETELY. HE IS PUTTING HIMSELF ABOVE THE CLUB AND THAT'S WHATS UNFORGIVABLE.

He doesn't understand English football and never will - I hate chopping and changing but we've got the wrong man.

Maybe when I calm down I won't think this, but right now I want us to just go out tomorrow and sack Mancini, Hart, Vieira, Jo, Boateng, Platt, hire back Platt, fire him again, give him a kicking on the way out, fire him once more without hiring him. Then shoot him.

Birmingham is a hard place to go to you know, just check the results there against the rags, spurs and chelsea this season and last. We would of won that if De Jong was on the pitch.

FFS. IT WAS SHITE.

How much is he paying you?

It wasn't good, pathetic? Nah, just a hard game where we didn't perform but managed to get a point out of it, the old city of three years ago would of lost that game so your comment about "that was back to under sven reign" is aload of bollocks as per.

I dont think youy understand mate.. Birmingham were fucking shite too! They were their for the taking!.. We gifted them 2 goals.

I do understand, shit pitch, not in form against a team who may be shit but raise their game and effort levels against the top teams and we were 10 mins away from winning when united, chelsea and spurs haven't this season. I would of took a point before the game and allthough i am dissapointed in the draw, its not the end of the world is it? We'll beat West Brom on Saturday and all will be well again.

He'll learn about English football but his much heralded organisational skills are clearly bullshit. We can defend well when we play for a point, otherwise, in an open game, he has achieved no improvement defensively whatsoever. We are riddled with mistakes & disorganised at all set pieces; the very things he's supposed to excell at. Our success defensively comes mainly from sheer numbers rather than quality.

I was really hoping nobody would say " the old city of three years ago would of lost that game"

Why because its true? Want another cliche? "Rome wasn't built in a day". Win games we would of drawn, draw games we would of lost, that is what we are achieving at the moment.

[MaineRoadMemories]

I'm so annoyed at that so called "performance". What's so disappointing is the fact we have played the likes of Leicester, Notts County, Villa and Brum and every single one of them played poor football - not one of those teams actually played well. It says a lot about our form and mentality. When will we grow some balls and take control of games?

Our season is on a knife edge and could potentially turn into last year if we don't regroup and regroup quickly.

I hope you're right mate. Genuinely I have backed Mancini all the way and believed in what he says.. but right now today, and knowing Maureen might be available I'm starting to think hes losing his way in the Premier League. I hope I'm wrong but I just feel so let down today.

When they played the rags, they had 11 men behind the fucking ball. Today. e were in front, they took us on, left all the kind of lovely gaps we like to counter attack through & we were too fucking shit to string two pases together. I don't know whay fucking planet you're on if you can't see how poor we were. Also, how many times have we fucked up in games like this by using Vieira?

[Nick]

JOE HART IS THE MOST OVERRATED PIECE OF SHIT KEEPER THERE EVER WAS.

I said this 3 days before he dropped that bollock vs. blackburn.

People have had his cock in their mouths all season

[Dameerto]

Paddy V was outpaced by a 37 year old striker - says it all really.

I never said we weren't poor. I said we underperformed on a shit pitch against a side that raises their game and effort levels against the top sides and we got a draw, the same as united and spurs and one more point than chelsea. Maybe it is just me and that i am a very optimistic person or not a miserable pessimist but i cannot see what is the problem? yes i am gutted and dissapointed that we didn't hang on and that we didn't hang on because Vieria, who was awful btw, being clumsy and the pen was debateable. By the time i wake up tommorrow i would of got over it and look forward to West Brom on saturday. I don't care what Douglas Higgingbottom says, we would of lost that 2 years ago let alone 3-4 and that is a sign of a team going in the right direction.

exactly right.

[blues2win]

To single out Kolarov after he scored a goal and damn nearly scored another is really unfair. There were enough shitty performances to go round today. Kompany springs to mind as much as Vieira. If Nigel hadn't been injured I think we'd have won.

We just have to pick ourselves up and get three points on Saturday. I remain concerned about the lack of decent options off the bench to grab a goal. We really should have got someone in during the window. SWP was injured by the way wasn't he?

[TonyM]

Spurs will catch up with us in no time if we don't get going soon. It's like we are playing in high heels. Against Notts County there was desire but we were still crap as a football team. Tonight we went from tippy tappy crap to pinball passing crap.

Surely we could concentrate on a few simple themes to get some tempo into our game. We are unbelievably slow in what we do and yet we seem in a constant state of panic. Even when we have the ball going forward we seem to be nervous. It's truely awful to watch. We had a breif purple patch but that's a distant memory now. We are as disjointed now as we were at the beginning of the season. We do nothing well as a unit and by now we should be.

Mancini needs a kick up the hole. He'll have to earn his money now if we to make the Champions' League. (It's not just good enough to get there either by the way - we need to have a decent team and style of play to do even better next season)

[MaineRoadMemories]

Compared against last season against the same teams we are 1 point better off - just one point. If I was Khaldoon I wouldn't be happy with that return on investment.

[DARKSIDEOFTHEBLUEMOON]

Lets not get too downhearted here , remember chelsea got beat here, the rags drew , liverpool drew , ok we played shite tonight , but im 100% sure normal service will be resumed on saturday with a victory over west brom at home on a proper playing surface, and im sure champions league qualification will be acheived, along with our 1st trophy in a long time , we have to learn to walk before we can run !

But you don't think we should be sacking the manager?

Mancini's unbridled arrogance is out of control. he's really taking the piss with the roster, the team selection and his attention to detail in Cup competitions. It's coming back to haunt us.

Do we need a Joe Hart gaffe for say 4 matches in a row before we do something? I'm sorry, some won't agree, but he should be stopping that first goal every day of the week.

not happy.

And we'll all live happilly ever after?

[Nick]

Lets ignore the fact that we wernt that great (to be fair 2-1 and we win I think we played well; the commentators on 301 at half time said wer were 'amazin') but we had TWO BLATANT pens ruled out.


Stephen carr handball BLATANT

Silva trip.

Mancini is gonna get the fans on his back if he refuses to make subs and freezes out MORE of the limited players that may change us e.g. zaba or swp.

veira, jo and milner should fuck off. I'll give boateng the benefit of the doubt.

hart needs to fix the fuck up before hes put on gardening leave.
