Yep. And from what I've heard Khaldoon has realised this and considering letting him go in the summer.

Allison was always opening his big gob to big up City...What a twat he must have been. The previous year he'd been stupid to say that we'd win the league...Worra cock that Allison was.
WE SHOULD HAVE GOT RID OF HIM...HOW DARE ANYONE SHOUT IN PUBLIC HOW GOOD WE ARE.
YOU BUNCH OF FUCKING FRIIGHTENED DRAMA QUEENS.

I'd prefer EVERYONE to just SHUT THE FUCK UP and bring cup of some sort home. THEN you can start mouthing off.

100% agree. same a few seasons back under Pearce, we'd win a game then people started talking about Europe and straight after we'd lose to some fucking shite relegation club. Wish everyone involved with the club would just shut the fuck up till we've actually won something!

Yeah - as if any rag biased paper knows what the Sheik thinks - bet he has them in to provide him with counsel all the time - more lazy / anti city media

...that approach only works if we are happy to stay for ever more a team of the stature we were under Pearce
All about opinions - everyone is entitled to their opinion - I just think people on this thread are still just 'venting' being pissed off about Wednesday - If people want to lay blame for losing the semi-final - look into the tactics of the 1st leg - or just put it down to coming out on the wrong side of a good match
How is the football Cook's fault - if Mancini arrives in the USA for a pre-season tour and there is no visibility of our club - no warming up of the media etc - would you blame Mancini - of course not.
People just want to attack someone after Wednesday and Cook seems the latest target - easy target and I guess it makes people feel better
In my opinion, I think we need to separate on the field activities - Mancini's responsibilities - from promotion of the club and the transformation of some medium size club to the persona of a massive club - which in fact we have never been in the context of the modern game - our history in the 60's is about as relevant as the past histories of Bolton, Preston, Burnley etc
Do people really think that the most effective way to promote and grow our club - grow revenues / achieve profitability etc - against a plan of a few years only is to just sit on our hands until we have won 3 trophies..
The reality is that Cook has been very successful in all the aspect in which he should be measured - Turnover, profitability, business funnel and marketing - the club is talked about all the time now - the visibility on television is increasing all the time - yes the rag infested press still try to drag us down - but even some of them are changing their tune and trying to act like they always thought we would make it
These aspects are Cooks responsibility - so well done him
We just need Hughes before and Mancini now to do their bit by achieving a minimum level on the pitch - given the investment and support - again something Cook has been instrumental in - that should not be too much to ask for
People should vent about Wednesday all they like - but try the scum players, the timid ref, the CITY players of the manager(s) - why the head of business development??
