Think he's gone when Salford beat us in the Cup, because that team he is picking will not beat any team that knows how to sit deep & lump it forward for pacy striker, David White in his heyday would have had a field day against Pep's City

100% agree.
After the ball was centred, after the whistle blew...

It didn't , it started when gündo came back and got an automatic slot in the midfield.
We were flying until then.

I am in the camp who want him to stay, but under the following conditions:
- he buys players
- he is not in a mentally and emotional burnout
If that is what is happening, then you can bring prime Messi, he is done and he needs a break.
All of the signs are towards that. He looks lost, we are looking at Sisyphus week in and week out, same mistakes, same lack of ideas and we expect something else.
I think the board needs to have a sit down with him.

The only way Pep should stay if he signs a year extension and start rebuilding from scratch otherwise a new manager with fresh ideas to start the rebuild.
If he's lost the dressing room, I'm afraid he can't stay, it's just not plausible to get rid off all the players

The dressing room is going nowhere. The dressing room might need a new coat of paint. Let Pep get his overalls on and do some painting.

Yes, we'll write off hundreds of millions worth of players and hand him 500m to start rebuilding in less than 2 years? Genius
He needs the current players to show some form otherwise no one is buying them for decent fees.

Who said anything at all about writing off millions and buying 500 mill worth of players ? Only you did , just now.
He should work with tools available. We've known for a year now that young Echeverri is coming in January. That's about it.

Well he’s going the right way about it. We’ve relieved managers of their duties for less previously.
I see him going in the summer to be honest

He is stubborn he will stay and rebuild. I don't see him being sacked and I don't see him walking, he cares about his legacy, every manager does.

Then he needs to be fucked off yesterday.
City gave him as much as he offered us. It would be disrespectful and quite sad.

He’s not going to be sacked.
He has his faults, but I’m more annoyed at the soft as shit cunts like Stones and Kev. Wankers

The way things are going, he won't have anything to build on

Heard from a source, pep has been in talks with khaldoon to quit and the game yesterday was the final straw when he outed every player in the dressing room after the game.
And it appears that his days as manager of city is coming an end.
I for one will be gutted as I have never seen and probably won't see again football played the way we have past 10yrs.
One last thing the shithouse footballers that don't put a shift in on what their paid fuck right off cunts
Support the badge, players come and go along with managers!!!
