[Sideshow Bob]

it's a fix. asian betting syndicates at it again.

this.

[Sister of fu]

I think something has gone on or it going on in the back ground and the players are not to happy about it. Don't think I have seen so many fuck ups in a game, makes me feel its been done on purpose to prove a point.

[TheReturnOfTheSpecialOne]

Title's definitely gone now.

I rang my cable provider on Thursday looking to drop my sports package: the season ends here, they might as well hand over the title to The Rags.
Not that I'm giving up, but the writing is on the wall

[Longball]

fair credit to the saints, they got their tactics right , place ball in behind the full backs, don't think ive seen a team strip city like they have in last few yrs

[Cit.revenge]

We have Kolo but for some reason he take Garcia on that position

FUCK OFF

[Beefymcfc]

Was it the players' fault the manager started with Nasri over Milner?

Your spot on, but what excuses can we say about the rest of them?

That they were poorly prepared mentally for today's match - draw whatever conclusions you want from that.

Are you trying to blame those 3 goals on the manager?

Mancini should get some shit just for being there but our basic play is abysmal. Can't even pass a ball.

[ant london]

We are being absolutely bossed by a side 5th from bottom

Only City could conspire to fuck up what should be a routine 3 points like this. Cunts

[Beefymcfc]

3 at the back.

Are you trying to say they haven't played 65 minutes of collective dross?

[FA cup winners 2006]

put Kompany at CF

nasri has been useless, Milner can only lift us. We need someone to get stuck in they're winning every 2nd ball.



And Facupwinner2006... while a few others like phips are negative moaners, you are purely an idiot. No point in even discussing.

COME ON CTY!

Because i dont agree with your opinion i am an idiot. There is a good reason why there is constant speculation over Mancini's future and that is because a lot of people can see that he is not getting the best out of this group of players

Compare Mancini's and Rodger's CV and then get back to me. What on earth are you huffing

So by that measure, do you think that ferguson is the greatest manager that ever lived and there will probably be no greater. If you do then fair enough but for me, he is not.

FUCK OFF

YOU'RE AN IDIOT

[Sister of fu]

What does Sinclair have to do to get a game.

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

We are being absolutely bossed by a side 5th from bottom

Only City could conspire to fuck up what should be a routine 3 points like this. Cunts

But are you genuinely surprised? Every away game feels like this might happen.

[carl_feedthegoat]

FUCK OFF LESCOTT..ANOTHER INEPT PERFORMANCE FROM YOU.

[Cit.revenge]

We are just to slow Silva and Yaya are nothing today.

[Sister of fu]

No CB on the pitch.....genius.

[phips]

Garcia to anchor the back 3? Nice.

[carl_feedthegoat]

YAYA IS STILL ON THE PITCH.
