Absolutely jack. Albeit I think we have thrown away the title, this is positive progress.

[mrbojangles]

I also think we should be proud of the fact that 3 out of the 6 shortlisted for PFA Player of the Year, are City players.

PFA Player of the Year shortlist: Joe Hart, Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Wayne Rooney, Robin Van Persie, Scott Parker.

All 3 deserve to be in there, but Rooney for us, he has been pretty average this season , but hey 30 goals not bad for someone, who even himself has said he has not been performing his best.

Agreed and I'd imagine Van Persie will get the actual award. Out of interest. Can't remember the last time a Goaly got nominated, never mind won. Anyone know if and when this has happened before?

I'd probably agree with Parker a close second. Silva has blown too hot and cold overall for me.

Yeah Silva has had an off patch since January. Hart has been pretty consistent though and let in less goals than anybody else.

Peter Shilton won it in 77-78

Scott Parker has been the most consistent this year out of that bunch,he deserves it and i hope wins it.

Fantastic he's been for us. But look at the quality of some of RVP's goals and I think that will swing it.

schmeichel probably should have won it at some point too.

it's a stupid award this one though as it's voted for around new year time. parker's been pretty average since then for example.

van persie should win it. been head and shoulders above everyone else really. aguero for the young player (even though he's not young).

Agree van persie for me, and a good shout for aguero, would love have both those at united.

Yeah. I wouldn't be too upset either, if we landed RVP in the summer.

[mrbojangles]

I hope this isn't true. I didn't like the little sh1t when he was last at City.

Hmmmm ... the force is strong with this one, maybe one day play he will.

(sorry, couldn't resist)

[MrRed]

Manchester City supporters have started a campaign to show their support for manager Roberto Mancini.

The fans have set up a "Respect Roberto Mancini" petition and organised a campaign on Twitter urging the club to retain him as manager even if City fail to win the Premier League title.

Mancini has seen his side's challenge falter and they are now five points behind leaders Manchester United.

Have you signed it ?

[mrbojangles]

Could you make the font a tad smaller Red !!

[MrRed]

Sorry mate i didn't want you to see it as i know your disdain for Mancini the Mincer.

Disdain? No, that's a bit harsh. But I do however think he isn't a good man manager and lacks in tactical awareness at times. Don't know what he has done for you to label him that though. Or is that as far as your imaginination can stretch?

[MrRed]

No imagination just reality April 30th tears at Eastlands and loads of empty blue seats at the end...

April 30th tears at Eastlands and loads of empty blue seats at the end...

Don't remember it being a full house either, at the end of the match at OT on the 23rd Oct 2011, when we gave you a historical thrashing.

There'll probably be the majority of United fans still there at the end next week though. Cos the last train to london isn't unitl 11pm.
