Saying that, I'm not sure how much of this is down to him, as it's very early to blame tactics or style of play.

Probably a bit too soon for this thread mate?


I don't think so. He's had a transfer window, a preseason and a few competitive games. Besides, the idea is to see how people's opinions change over time.


Spot on.. I guess hes won us all over?

If you're not satisfied by this, maybe football isn't for you.

Has anybody written, "if you aren't satisfied with Pellers, you aren't a proper Blue" yet?

If you can't be more than satisfied with the football on display so far, regardless of the eventual trophy haul, I agree with posters before that football probably just isn't for you ...

Hold on a minute, who is in the minority - those very satisfied or those below that? Cant imagine many people being very satisfied if we dont win the league or Champs league this season. Its great playing the football we do, but if we win fuck all its meaningless.

and dont tell me football is not for me- I will decide that thanks.

Very true mate but at least people will be able to console themselves with good football. If it ended up the case then I'd say I'd be 'Satisfied' but 'Disappointed' at the same time.

I would love to hear from the very dissatisfied voters, presumably they are rags voting on here I mean how much better can it get for us at this stage? Remember which league we played in a few years ago? Remember Frank Clarke "managing", or Alan Ball getting us sent down? Being a City fan is top as I prepare to taunt the rags at work again (and again) I love it. I think the Count is a top man too.

Or they are just people who haven't checked the thread in a while???

I seriously doubt anyone is 'very dissatisfied' at this time. The defence still has its shaky moments, but we're playing plenty of fantastic football, scoring lots of goals, haven't lost in 2 months and have a chance at winning each of the 4 competitions we're in. Good times!!!

There will be some who were grade one Mancini lickers, who just posted in order to stick the knife in then pissed off never to return unless it goes wrong, a few who think they are being funny, a few who haven't checked in for a while & a few rag/other saddos.

If there was a 'close to ecstatic' option, I would kind of be on that at the moment, but as we haven't actually won anything yet or beaten any of the top teams away from home, I've left it on 'satisfied' as a longer term thing.

I will upgrade if the latter starts to happen, but I won't be going less than 'satisfied' now even if we win fuck all.

The football has been so good, & so many things are right, that he'll do for me already this season for what he has brought to the club.

Get the OP to change the poll, resets the counter.

I am still in neither camp, we've done well but Pearce did well in his first six months in charge. Looking back, are you 'very satisfied' with his reign?

The poll is how satisfied with Pelligrini you are "to date". You know, up to now, where its still impossible for him to actually have won anything.

Some people appear to be struggling with that simple concept when it comes to voting.

"we've done well" !!

What do we have to do to make you say we have excelled so far??? win by 10 goals every game ??

Anyone that isn't in the satisfied group needs to sit down ,in a corner , facing the wall.

Prefer we didn't lose to Cardiff, Sunderland, Villa and draw with Stoke and Southampton, but I guess I need to suspend my long term outlook and forget that we still have to play everyone in the top seven except Chelsea(and of course ourselves) away from home this season and the best we managed so far is a 5-2-4 record when we've played 7 of the teams in the bottom 8.

And YTD with the games we've had and the games the teams around us have had, we should be leading the league.
