Delap was just praying for some idiot to do it and good old Zab obliged. Why couldnt he just stand the guy there and wait for him to make the move rather than sticking his foot through his legs like he did.

sorry mate, but you are the only person on the planet that thinks it was a foul.

Come off it mate, there was nothing wrong with that goal and I would have been gutted if that had happened to us. Given had a shocker - he's going downhill fast.

I know they worked quite well last year, but have Stoke scored a single goal from Delap's throws against anyone else in the league this season?
I'd guess not.

Luckily for Given, the geezer had his arm over his shoulder & made contact. Whenever that happens refs give a foul, wrongly imo but they do, so there's no reason it should be any different just because it's City.
I've seen enough now to form the opinion that we need a keeper who dominates the box if we're ever going to win the PL. Given's a great keeper but he's useless in that department & it's asking a lot of the defenders to win every ball in every game for a whole season. It's simply not going to happen.
