Probably takes them everywhere. Done pretty well for a little fellow if he's twatted them without his golf clubs tbf.

I think it's disgraceful though & Cardiff should cancel his loan deal send him back to City immediately.

Cardiff are ruining football by having such a pugilistic hothead in their ranks.....how dare they ? - they should be fined immediately.

However, as for Bellamy's loan deal being cancelled, the Courts might impose their own "cancellation" by having him sent down for six months (do Cardiff and City still have to pay his wages if he's in jail ??) and that would conceivably jigger up any possibilities of a future transfer from us to them.

I for one would have loved to have seen a Bellers vs Balo training ground fight. I don't think it would have been handbags like Ade and Toure, it would have been a proper bloody mess! No players would have helped to break it up in fear of being dropped for the next match by Mancini, as he had front row seats shouting 'Fight! Fight! Fight!'

I personally think Balo would just edge it.

Unless Bellers got his retaliation in first

If he got sent down I suspect his contract would be cancelled period, no penalty on us.

But I hope it won't come to that.

i find this sad. I love Bellers and hope that he has done nothing that wasn't in self-defense.

Ultimately, the REAL difference to our chances in the title tilt this season, i fear, will be that Bellamy was exiled. And we'll never know, will we?

sad.

cheers

What on earth in Bellamy's career history, now a good 13 years long, indicates he would be "the difference" in a title tilt? He's gone through 9 clubs and hasn't won a carrot ... not one single winners medal .... nothing. He couldn't even win a bloody medal with Celtic, thankfully jinxing them in to a last day collapse.

He is a good player with talent no doubt, but is a) always injured or coming back from injury, b) always involved in some sort of controversy, which invariably is of course never his fault, and c) never ends up winning a bloody thing.

Whilst sort of accepting your point, he did win a trophy at Celtic. But anyway, we can only base it on how he's been for us, and when he was here his performances made him an automatic starter.

Innocent until proven guilty anyone?

i would absolutely bank my balls that bellers would kill every cell on balo's body within one minute.

and as for the point about him not making a difference/ he's won nowt - he would have been better than jo on every occasion that jo has "played" this season.

Half our sqaud have won nothing. The only thing he need be judged on is if he is better than any of our current 25.

Don't think we need to take a vote do we?

what on earth? well...have you been watching our side all season? Have you seen our lack of width and finishing prowess? Have you seen matches where no one took the one opportunity we had to make a difference and snatch a goal or make the final ball count from a sweet pass into the box to someone roaming free and looking for a ball?

that's what i've seen...

Let me put it this way...if Bellers had the shot that Milner had vs Arsenal it's likely he would have put it on target to at least force a save. And there are numerous matches where that kind of thing could have made a difference.

that's "what".

cheers

He is a great player, no doubt. He could have been very important for us this season...... But for his attitude

One of the great things that seems to be happening at city at the moment is that bobby manc is establishing himself as the guvner something we have missed for decades. Bellers was shipped out cos he doesn't give a fucl about that, he may have scored the odd goal or two but in my humble we are a lot closer to being the team that will deliver without him in our squad

Never saw that coming.

Great comparison. Only problem with it is that Jo is quite happy to pick up a wage and play 1 game every 4 weeks max. Would Bellamy have sat there quietly and been happy to play The odd Europa game and a couple of Pem games in 5 months? I think we know the answer to that one don't we. He'd have thrown more hissy fits than a 15 year old girl and have been a major problem in the dressing room that Mancini can do without.

Bellamy's career history, passing from team to team with umpteen bust-ups, tells you all you need to know about him.

Dear oh dear. Milner is a far better player in this squad for now, and for the next 5 years as opposed to Bellamy, so lets get that out of the way first. Different types of players granted, but Milner will prove a shrewd purchase in the long run, especially given that he replaced the one season wonder but sadly, serial basket case that was Stephen Ireland.

As for been watching our games this season, yep - seen every one, most of them in person. Do we have to go through what building a squad involves, and dealing with troublesome personalities in a dressing room again? Have you been watching us this season, and I mean really watching formations, flow of the game and our performances away from home?

There's far too many rose-tinted spectacles on Bellamy; yes he is talented, but he is also oft-injured, poison in a dressing room and wouldn't have been happy being in and out of the team. Mancini knew this and made the right decision in shipping him out for the overall good.

There are numerous games Bellamy would have missed due to his creaky knees, several newspaper whinges about not been played/respected/trained too much etc, and also plenty of games he would have gone missing in too. Look at Bellamy's career history, examine the many clubs he's been through and all the bust-ups and try to pick up the obvious theme from it.

Mancini knew exactly what he was doing in shipping him out - think bigger picture and you'll get it to.
