*** Champions v Scum - Official Match Thread ***

[DoomMerchant]

Clichy had a solid match until his poor decision to fuck about and not clear the ball. The points dropped due to him and nasri being fucking crap right at the end. Silly.

Hart was crap.

Balo was not. Nasri should have been off for Tevez. Fact.

[Manc bluey]

Our fans humiliated us at the end! We'd been amazing throughout but made us look a disgrace at the end.

[Biamp]

It`s Tom Cruise fault.

He's to blame that for certain.

[Moonchesteri]

Balo was not.

What did Balo do today? Couple of backheels here and there, one missed (difficult though) chance... not convinced what he offered today, please let me know?

Fans are getting sick of seeing referees do their best to fuck us over week after week. Eventually they are going to lose their heads. And when some screaming cockney wobbly-faced cocksucker screams in front of your face, you lose it.

Adebayor got a 3-matvch ban for sliding on his knees in front of the arsenal fans. What do you think rooney will get for doing exactly the same thing in front of the City fans?

Balotelli is waste of shirt. only seen the last 2 pages, can't belive ppl slagging off Nasri. Totally up for it, like Tevez, and got booked for the cause. Potential to be a great footballer and being a great footballer are two entirely different things. I don't want him to ever pull on the shirt again. 45 mins that cost us the title. Not being over-dramatic, sorry, fucked it. unless we buy Messi or similar in January.

And anyone thinking it's right to throw things at footballers needs re-educating. Total and utter cunt that Camelface is, this is sport, not war.

WHAT THE FUCK WAS NASRI DOING IN THE WALL AFTER WE HAD FOUGHT BACK GALLANTLY TO AVOID DEFEAT YOU FUCKIN SPINELESS CUNT !


NB to all the gloryhunter / tourist fans ...... thats how it is with city , it always will be !!!!!! its us poor poor cunts who live breath and work in Manchester who have to take all the shit off the rag cunts day in day fuckin out !!!!!

[carl_feedthegoat]

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson on Sky Sports: "I have not known many more dramatic days than that. Today was a special one as City had not lost for two years in the Premier League at home.

"You could not take your eyes off it. I thought we played very well.

"We had a goal that was perfectly onside ruled out, and they go up the pitch and score. That is the kind of game football is and it can kill you and kick you in the teeth.

"They deserved to come back when it was 2-2, but up to that point, I thought we were far better than them."

THE SENILE ONE IS SURELY PISSED IF HE THINKS HIS TEAM WAS ANYWHERE NEAR IN CONTROL....YOUR NOT LONG AWAY FROM GETTING RIGAMORTIS AND TURNING BLUE YOU FUCKIGN DRUNKEN SCOTTISH CUNT.

[Beefymcfc]

Fuck of ref , obvious dive there

Yes and not the first one either. Gaz Barry's face when he got booked said that he at least knows what is going on in football. I wonder if anyone will come out and say it.

To start, that was the worst pievce of refereeing I have ever seen. From the start when they had free licence to take our players out was disgusting. Riley obviously gave Atkinson the nod to ensure United had carte blanche to do their stuff. I won't go into it but the stuff at the end was disgraceful, booking our players because the Rags were in full form?

Then onto Sky, what a waste of money. Why anybody would pay for the shite they spout I'll never know. It was a Rag love-in from start to fininsh. United this, United that, it's quite obvious who runs this league.

Anyway, we started off very brightly and should've been ahead. United beat us on the break and scored from our poor positional play which was rectified later. We came back and pushed them to the brink until a rather fortuitous freekick where Nasri seemed to trow the game away. If you look though, Carlos actually moved away from the wall where the shot was going, Nasri wouldn't have been put in that position if Carlos had stayed. It's natural for a player to throw a leg out, it's the norm.

Overall, I thought the game was managed by the ref. He allowed United to take our players out and once they'd got ahead alllowed the play to continue in the same vein. Once we equalised, his managegment was called into question and he obliged the rags every sympathy. Notice how they rolled around with merely a clip yet our players had to be taken out just to get a look, but nothing given?

PS. Those who love Gary Neville should be ashamed, the single-mindedness of his commentary was sickening, FUCKING SICKENING!

[I Just Blue Myself]

only seen the last 2 pages, can't belive ppl slagging off Nasri. Totally up for it.

You must've missed the freekick, so I'll educate you: Samir Nasri HID behind Dzeko in the wall & stuck his foot out like a fanny, deflecting the shot past Hart. UP FOR IT!? My arse!

We lost the game btw, in case you missed that as well.

[Biamp]

Well, cracking 2nd half at least

No doubt.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

OK so obviously mega disappointed but on reflection that game just reminded me ( if I needed it) that City are a better side than the scum. There are all sorts of ways of looking at that game including that we could have been 3 down if that Young goal had been allowed as it probably should have been but we showed we can dictate the game and recover from a terrible situation and only a lucky deflection cost us the game.

And we are doing that with maybe strange decisions on team selection and making mistakes which are costing us dear. I haven't come across anyone who thought it was right to play Mario instead of Carlos and maybe this did cost us today.Maybe the manager has put too much faith in Mario and he just hasn't repaid him. Can he keep doing this with him? I don't think Mario had a shocker today but I did feel when he was on that we didn't look much like scoring.I felt his decision making when he had the ball with his head up was poor.I am just not sure he sees things correctly. Certainly compared to Tevez he doesn't

We are 6 points behind but we are capable of going on a winning run of games as long as we get the basics right.I do think 2 or 3 new faces are probably necessary in January.

[Dubaimancityfan]

Switched off the T.V. after Zabba's goal. I couldn't watch any more. Had a feeling something like this will happen. Watched it now and what a comedy of errors. Clichy could've passed it back to Hart and it would have been all over. What was he thinking ?? And that foul by Tevez, what the fuck was that for, Rafael was going no where ?? I thought we had shrugged off the 'typical City" tag but it was back in full display today from that first scum goal onwards. What a shame after a big fight back to 2-2.

You could lay blame at Clichy, Hart, any number of players (Balotelli.)He made a mistake. Thought he played well in his actual position. How does an unlucky deflection reflect on his attitude? We were shit for 45 minutes. I didn't miss that, no.

[IanWright]

Don't worry, your lot will still win the league.

Agreed, end of

[Moonchesteri]

Six points behind, and later on we'll travel to Everton our bogey team (basically 9 points behind) and we'll travel to Arsenal against who Mancini is bobbins (basically 12 points behind there). and that's only two games, there's still countless of other tricky games to play just like next week. From this point I can't see us retaining the trophy anymore.

or where do you see the scum dropping the points?

I do lay part of the blame for the goal at Clichy, Hart & Tevez. But there is a difference between making a mistake & being a fucking coward hiding behind a teammate in a wall. That's not unlucky, it's fucking asking for it!

[Green & Blue]

City could have easily folded today at 2-0 but the team showed great character to get back in the game.So harsh to lose in the end like that.I really hope tasting defeat today will make the players realise they need to really step it up to challenge these cunts for the title.

I don't think he did. Carlos left the wall and Nasri pushed his leg out whilst falling away. Watch it again, you'll see that Nasri fell back whilst trying to get a fot to the ball.
