I'm 24. You'd kill to have my balls.
And you're a part timer - have been for years mate - while i've been full time since 1996. live in London and still am.
let's face facts: I'll be there to welcome Mancini just as I was there to say goodbye to Hughes - 2 things you'd love to say.
Also, as emotive as your health may seem - if you can make it to Thailand, surely you can make it to Eastlands?


Flying to Thailand does not produce massive adrenalyn surges that drive my blood sugar to dangerously high levels and make me ill for weeks after I go. Going to City does. So take your prejudices and shove them up your arse.

Dancing around on the Swamp after canning another trophy makes him rag to me.

Fair play to Mancini, he's stuck it out for his money at Inter and been sorting his English out. Hopefully he will hit the ground running with 3 relatively easy games before playing the scums kids. A nice time to settle in I suppose, better time than any.

COME ON CITY!!!

Yep. Much as I love her, I don't nearly go into a coma when she scores...

if we had changed for a top class proven manager then ok, but we have acted to quickly in this case i think.


why 45 year old manager who has his winning pedigree isn't 'proven' yet many of the same people thought Hughes was good for us when he had no winning pedigree whatsoever?

Weird.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Benitez who won the Champions League with an English club, what a failure he is compared to Hughes...

It's the timing. We've suffered an indignity here - the resaon needs to be seen to be worth it. It's not obvious that he is.

How can you not see eleven points in ten games as being an indignity though mate?
