Maybe he should have taken out a two or three page ad.......the pillock

Oh well, he's left Pellinguini enough work to keep him busy.

Gone on holiday Mr. B, is that how the players reward loyal fans?

<deleted>! What are you on this morning? Whats the problem taking out the ad? The fans were great to him. Everytime i watched a City game they were cheering him. And add to that every team goes on holiday at the end of the season. Have done for years and nothing wrong with it. Everyones allowed a holiday

Have a cup of tea

Again, I understand your feelings this morning, though you're probably in denial.

Projection involves psychically expelling one's negative or hostile feelings onto one person or others and is a common psychological process. It's OK, I don't mind helping out.

Not happy with the players today. Don't know what Brian Kidd had in mind, especially with his substitutions but the players seemed like they had already gone on holiday.

Not happy with the players today. Don't know what Brian Kidd had in mind, especially with his substitutions but the players seemed like they had already gone on holiday.

Unfortunately more questions than answers, even taking into consideration there was nothing to play for.

If, as we are led to believe, Mancini was the core of the problem, then I was expecting 2 fantastic performances V Reading and Norwich. Didnt happen.

What is wrong with Yaya? Worst I have seen him play.

Apparantly problems with Kolarov and the fans. He was swearing at them and offering them out on the lap of honour

Micah is either not match fit or playing centre half isnt his forte.

Kompany?? Again not playing? Rumours on some of the fan forums, suggest he was not happy with the way Mancini was sacked, yet papers suggest they had a problem??

I have been saying it all year, but we really need to have someone who knows how to take a corner like Bale or RVP. Our corner taking is crap.

One shred of light was Jack Rodwell. Hopefully he can keep fit

A good post Jack, though there's always something to play for.......the fans and a bloody big pay packet.

Modern day footballers dont play for the fans, and the pay packets are already guaranteed

You're right of course Jack.....sad eh?

Didn't see the Kolarov bit. Not a good move by him.

I'm still not happy with their performance yesterday but I'm a tad more relaxed about it this morning. In my view, let's get the Managers position sorted ASAP and then not dally around with signings and letting people go. Hopefully we have identified possible signings and IF ratified by the new manager, we should strike early in the transfer window.

On another note. Did you see Tevez when he got subbed? Got a hug off Kidd and looked quite happy.

I think probably before the game Kidd had made the decision to play Tevez for less than an hour, given the minutes he has played over the past 10 days.

Press were trying to make something out of nothing ,saying his 2 handed wave at the fans, means he is leaving. I dont think so.

Re Kolarov, the fans started having a go at him for not getting stuck in, and apparantly he turns on the fans and tells them to F@ckk Off.

The fans started booing him and chanting Clichys name. Then at the end he was staring at the fans in South Stand and pointing at certain fans, 'offering them out', pointing outside the ground

The City forums are full of it, with lots of the fans having seen it first hand.

I know it's only a rumour, but PSG are very interested and he likes teams that pay a lot of money.

I think he is happy enough at City and is one of the few who puts a regular shift in.

Biggest smile I've seen from Carlos in a long time. God knows what it means though. Tevez is a tough guy to figure.

Really nice performance from Rodwell the other day. I don't know if it bodes well for the future or not, but kudos, especially for the second goal. Pretty that one.

No Ups. If you read the article, they don't start playing until 2015 Seriously though, I bet there will be some cross merchandising probably including both clubs logo's.

Also, I don't know for sure but somehow I think this is linked to the FFP rules. We are majority owners and the accountants must have something uo their sleeves.
