Well done blues.

[steveo_88]

Everyone had a decent game tonight who needed one, Owen and Mario scored and some kids got proper game time. Good nights work.

[phips]

Glad Balo and Hargreaves each scored.

More glad that we kept a clean sheet...heard Savic and Razak were solid. thats good to hear.
I'm just curious how Pantilimon was, despite keeping a clean sheet.

Crappy vid but better than nothing

Thank you!

Wonderful goal!

Ditto. Thanks for posting that!
Has anyone found link to the Balo goal?

[Green & Blue]

Well done lads, job done.

Great confidence boost for Mario and especially Hargreaves.Pity Captain Caveman could not get off the mark, he really needs a goal to kick start his season.

Would have been nice to have seen the game, hopefully get a decent few minutes on the carling cup show later.

From what i seen in the 2nd half he looked pretty confident considering its his 1st game.

A couple of dodgy moments aparantly. Came for a cross first half andgot no where near it, tried to take it from behind attaker rahter than comin in a striagh line for it. Also, spilled to the ball late on from a shot from King. Apart from them looked ok though. Hes fuckin huge.

We're fucked

Pantytampon is going to have a busy night!

I really don't think Bobby has picked much of a "team" there, he's just banged a load of match short individuals together. Taking all 4 competitions seriously? Fuck off! Out of match practice players are next to useless. The only possibility is that we are at home, so players are a little less likely to go hiding.

you were saying? :)

[Dubaimancityfan]

Very pleased with Balotelli. Kept his head down. Scored. Hasnt been booked and look pretty decent all over the pitch !!

I echo that ..Hes been great and tracked back to.

Was off very quickly when the match ended and walked straight back into the tunnel. I wonder what message was he sending Mancini with that !?

Decent result and good run out for some fringe players and youngsters. When will Tevez score again ??? Cracking debut by Hargreaves. Didn't see that coming !

Class goals both of them..No keeper could of saved them...Mario is one ruthless striker when his head is on it.

Whens the fourth round draw?

Sat.

Owen Hargreaves Woooaaaahhh, Owen Hargreaves Woooaaaahhh, he came from A&E, to play for Man City!

hmm...sounds a bit nervy and shaky. needs to play more Carling cup matches to get somewhat better

[Yffi_88]

According to the OS, Birmingham only fielded one player.

Fuck me. The righting on that site is orfull at thymes.
