I've slept on this now and am still seething so tell me if I'm wrong.

Back in Munich it was a huge game and we needed s win. Tevez refused to come on and was rightfully treated like an arsehole and fined more money than most of us combined will ever have.


Yesterday was a must win game for our title push to stay alive. Balo and Nasri played shit the entire 1st half and Balo was a liability with one yellow and should have seen red. Every single one of us thought Tevez should come on and new Balo wouldn't last the game.

Half time no change.
50 mins no change.
55 mins no change
60 mins no change
65 mins no change
70 mins no change
75 mins no change
80 mins no change
Then with 6 mins to save our season he brings off aguero and as predicted Balo was sent off.

For me mancinis refusal to change what every single one of us knew needed changing when we needed it most hurt us just as much as Tevez refusing to come on. Obviously Tevez wasn't sacked, but in my opinion if one needed to be punished so does the other in some way. What that is I don't know, but I cannot believe Mancini say there and allowed his personal feeling cost us our last hope.

Mancini is a stubborn bastard as i said watching todays game.

if i could punish you for starting this thread i might consider it.

cheers

To me it's simply two individuals refusing to do what was needed to help out cause. Each as bad as the other.

Maybe what we saw in Munich was Mancini losing the plot and blaming another player with whom he had a poor relationship.

I've lost all respect for mancini in recent weeks. Inept manager.

try a topical antibiotic...but i don't think you can use it on your arsehole. Maybe just around the edges...avoid the urge to stick your finger in there, firstly because it's dangerous to get the medicine in there, and secondly because it's not Tuesday yet.

cheers

whoosh, over his head - true or not, that can actually be funny in the context of a tit-for-tat internet exchange. LOL. etc. But:

How many of you here have played for a football team? Imagine playing with Mario in your side. Not on your side, like an asset, but 'in it' like a poisoned dart. Imagine seeing yourself trying yo tits off, and getting snubbed, subbed, or passed over, for someone who can't be arsed to be prefessional. A favoured individual, who apparently can spearhead our attack as we push for thr league.

I'm captain of my team, and there's a right mix of lads we've we've got, mercurial a lot of em. If he was one of my lads, I'd tell him to fuck off, before the rest of em dealt with him. And they're not that bad, these lads, unless you deserve it. It looked like Mancini set him up for a test, but by doing so failed his own. Dicey. All is sour. Jury's not out anymore. Jury's been to the pub, and they've come back mob handed, wanting blood. Thumbs well down.

I play floor hockey with my work every tuesday and friday and if we had Balotelli in our team, we'd be the most famous floor hockey team in the north of Sweden.

I've defended him umpteen times on here and I am just very very disappointed in him.

I'd have knocked him out after the match had I been a teammate yesterday. I certainly wanted to do so as a supporter.

He was a petulant, brainless disgrace. None of that was "passion" it was the indulgent shite of a moron

So the two questions I am getting at here is was what he did an act of stupidity that cost us like Tevez?

And if so is there a punishment short of dismissal that can be placed on a manager?

I'm on the fence as to in or out, but if he does stay I certainly don't think he should think its ok to pick his favorites and stick with them to our peril just to prove a point. Made a fool of himself yesterday.

Bringing Tevez back has been really great for our form. He has really lighted this team up.

Pathetic. Maybe if he was given more than 7 fucking minutes he could have an impact.
