We played ok 2nd half imo, but any team with that wanker Savic in it, is always likely to concede a goal. We were lucky earlier when he let the ball go through his legs into the 6 yard box. I think he makes everyone nervous.

With or without him though, we have failed to beat WBA, Sunderland, Fulham, Everton, Liverpool, Swansea, Napoli, Sporting. All teams who occupy the same general area of the table as the teams we have to play & beat next.

We have been mostly shit away from home since we beat the rags, scraping a few wins but generally being poor in all competitions.

Unless that changes immediately we will lose the league before we play them, probably at Arsenal.

Hate to admit it but Tevez may be our only hope.

In the brief sp[ell Dzeko played, he mustered more effort in that in 60 odd mins midweek. Had he & AJ come on earlier, imo we would have won. Bob got almost everything wrong today.

What about Norwich then? Numerous times in the past they play shit against a mid table team and get a last minute winner. Some people on here simply can't accept that they're a good side who know how to win. Mentally they have the edge over us. They were 3 down to Chelsea with 70 miniutes gone? Could you honestly see us getting a draw from that position. We bottled it big time.

Today was our 2nd easiest away game out of the bunch imo. Swansea create nothing. Unfortunately neither do we anymore.

oh dear...nothing positive to take from that game.
Savic has made too many mistakes before this game and unfortunately cost us again.....basic pass.
One up front didnt work at all but biggest problem for me was the speed of our play...we were soooooooooo slow and let Swansea set in position everytime......too narrow when coming forward and today decision making was terrible.....we had 3 on 2 and Silva hit the shittest pass he has hit this year....
Felt Ballotelli too concerned with hitting the floor every 5 mins.
All in all bad day for us but especially Mancini....he needs a plan B rather than tippy tappy constantly....you have to find way win these games.....substitutions of Johnson and Dzeko too late....
Side note...Nasri and his pirouette and pass back every time gets position is tarting to piss me off...
anyway .....keep the faith

throughout this season, bobby's substitutions - or lack thereof - have been fucking baffling, e.g. why hasn't he used pizza more often?? we were BEGGING for some composure and creativity in the middle, both in this match and at lisbon.

You said "always, always". Which is fucking shit. I showed you seven examples (cos they lost to Basel twice remember) that prove you are wrong.

And they didn't win at Chelsea. So that makes eight good reasons why "always, always" is fucking rag propaganda shit.

If they drop points and we pull it off. You can start a thread entitled "I done gone told y'all so" and I really hope you have that opportunity.

But it has just gone from putting up with Cheryl cole's bad attitude and false tan on the bedding to trying to get it up for subo. It is a fucking huge task and i think our best bet is performance enhancing drugs.

They have a nous about them what we dont and some need to take there blue specs off for a change. They havent played well in weeks but still win and keep on wining. I was worried that if they got in front they wouldnt be caught and i havent changed my mind.

Im fed up of the football we play away from home, zero urgency or pace a about us. We just play in front of the other teams back line and get no where. Today was just a carbon copy of Sunderland and Everton. God knows what was wrong with Silva, why was he not hooked sooner???

As they have been saying all season, those long months that they have been behind us, it only matters who is top after 38 games.

A long way to go yet. City are like Miruts Yifter letting some average distance runner build up his hopes by allowing him the lead at the bell, only to race past as we enter the home straight. You know it's coming.

Man UTD will win the title. Simple as that. City needs way more experience and hard work to be mature enough to win the title.

Hopefully it will be better next season

How? We've been getting progressively worse whilst they're gaining momentum and have an easier fixture list.

A bad day in the office, we have all had them, sport is no different; and lets not hear how much money they are being paid etc etc. This hurts like fuck and if I am honest I feel like we have handed the initiative to them on a plate. The one thing that really annoys me, was our response when they scored, we suddenly found pace, aggression and put serious pressure on them...I think that Mancini is at fault here as he tries to be too cool and requires the squad to always maintain the patient build up...he has not learned that the Premiership also requires guts and glory football and at times it just cannot be always controlled...he needs to let them loose from time to time. I think this is also the reason why we are struggling to come back from deficits or finish the game off in the last five minutes as our neighbours from hell have been doing for the last fifteen years.

I am just concerned on a psychological level what its going to do to me and us as fans if we blow it this year, it will be devestating and I for one will be forking out a wad of cash to my rag mates which will just add insult to injury.
Hoping our new rollercoaster gives us the thrill of our lives.

I am really trying to get a grip, but i really can't.

Ok, we had bent decisions in every game we lost points this season, but ffs, instead of taking the team to a new level, after you beat filth with 6-1, we became poor, we lost our track. Instead of becoming better and better, we look like this.
I am sorry to say, but it's absolutelly 100 % Bob's fault. He had the best conditions in the world, the best staff and almost best players he could buy, but still he managed to fuck things up.
City is clueless, had been clueless with Sunderland, WBA, Everton, Villa and Wigan and the fact we managed to win with the last two is simply because they are SHIT.
The title is lost, we must understand this and this is realism, not crap. You must step up as a supporter and realise that we fucked things up when we had all in our hands. The away games will become harder and harder because we allowed other teams to become confident with us. If the teams from above had done it, why wouldn't we? Norwich, Wolves, Arsenal, Newcastle. The same scenario, the same result.

We had a great season, but that's the problem, HAD is in past tense.
