Fulham (H) - FA Cup Round 4 Post-Match Thread

Pep Guardiola: "Joao Cancelo had a big kick with some injury on his ankle. We will see how they recover in the next days.”
He just needs to man up and man the injury away like real man's man.

I went - but the emptiest i ever felt at Maine Road was when we played Wimbledon in a ( i think ) Full Members cup game and we all sat down on the Kippax. Still had great banter and we didnt stop singing all night. Man, i miss those floodlit nights at Maine Rd

What I’d give to be back in the park side waiting to get to the holy grail to hear, dadadadadada city Manchester City the roar goes up as the away team comes out: BRING ON THE CHAMPIONS

Can’t take our memories away pal
 
Yeah it’s ridiculous. Everyone’s most skint period of the year, when we have the most cup games to pay for (plus a possible Wembley trip) and they’ve decided to take Madrid ticket money out on 10th February, five days before I get paid.

I went today but I don’t have a problem with anyone who fucked it off today because the club don’t have a clue!

Its still better than if not in scheme anymore, like me. Has to pay upfront which is fair enough but if money is tight then something has to give and it looks like there has been one game too many. Why not just put the Madrid game on sale on 1 Feb?
 
39k was a decent crowd today as several posters have said. I quite enjoyed the game knowing it was only going to be a case of how many, once Fulham went down to 10 men.

A bit of a miserable day, weather wise, and good on the families who in some cases brought kids to their first City game.
 
When the club make the decision to close areas of the ground, it instantly sends the wrong message. Where's the creative marketing, family of four tickets for 25 quid, kids for a quid in more areas of the ground. Guaranteed cheaper tickets for cup scheme members. Free parking etc. No one expects it all the time but a low key game, live on TV, shit kick off time, amongst a number of expensive game after Christmas the club need to be more aware of the fans circumstances

Your kebab on the way home will cheer you up:)
 
Pep might have been sarcastic when saying he didnt know why the Etihad wasnt full but the press just go with it as a headline, and that's the first news article on my Google news app !!

Now I am guess Pep knows how the ticket sales are going for Wednesday so he wont be hoping as he knows !!

fuck the media we never get any good credit for home games attendance anyway, and it was on tv on the bbc so maybe manc/fans pockets are not so deep and even if it was cheap still food and bills have to be paid and then feed the family it all adds up ?? to many cheap shots at city again and lets see what the biggest attendance of the FA cup 4th round is ? and then work the averages are and city crowd today will be above the best and ok

You couldn't beat Maine Road mate, the Etihad can't hold a candle to it unfortunately. Even though we were shit for most of our years at Maine Road, the matchday experience was top notch.
 
Well, as devil’s advocate, would you slag off the club that helped you become a legend in football management and could provide indirect or direct income for the rest of you life?

See many former players’ positive comments about City, even though some of them had very contentious relationships with the club and fans when they were with us.

Only a few have gone the opposite direction, and that is because either they always had stronger ties elsewhere (McPointy) or they are paid to be the “objective City pundit” (Danny ****ing Mills).

Roberto Mancinis reputation in football management had long been established prior to taking over City, hence he managed to get the job in the first place. Furthermore he is now the manager of Italy which far exceeds managing City for prestige, particularly in his home country the place most likely to provide further work opportunities

It was a great touch by Mancini even if it seems easier for some to try and downplay it.
 
Silly fucking time for kick off

Fulham are shite following their team so how anyone thought they would travel for a Sunday game at 1pm beggars belief

BBC chose the game and are the first to point the finger

3pm Saturday and more fans travel to ground

Nearly 40000 is a good turnout
 
These refs make it up as they go along. One minute injury time in the first half when there was a sending off, a var review and 2 lengthy injury treatments. Then 2 mins in the second half, when there were lots of subs, at least 1 lengthy injury delay, and a long var delay. Nobody can say these clowns don’t make it up and twist the rules of the game.

I also think 39k is a decent attendance against mediocre opposition who only brought about a thousand. I was there today as were my kids, shouting for City, and could do without our manager feeding bullets to the cunnting media

Well said mate. Agree on all of that.

Port Vale last round was virtually a sell out wasn’t it??
