Incredible jobs at clubs with little pressure on them ....... how many time did Everton bottle the big games ????? Same with West Ham ........... if City win the league this season and Pep did one do you think they would be looking at a manager who hasn’t won anything ?????

I never mentioned in my post that David Moyes is or was a manager at that level. What I said was he should of been given more time to get it right because he has a style of play and his teams have an identity and if that didn't work then so be it. His was given a 6 year contract which was silly in the first place so why chuck him out after 6 or 7 months or whatever it was. As for his record against big clubs the likes of Everton, West Ham along with other mid table teams don't have good records against the big teams anyway, Unfortunately Moyes used to beat us a lot under Everton and didn't do much against anyone else bar the odd win here and there.

We brought in Mark Hughes basically to get us better and get us in and around the top 6, Followed by a better manager Mancini we had a to then get us Champions League spots and he also won us the title, We give again and get a manager with a brilliant record of doing well in Europe with lesser sides Pellegrini and then followed by Pep we had a process from day one...
Rags problem is the want it all NOW when they should of used Moyes as a stepping stone given him an opportunity to see where he could take them and then make a step up in manager to go again that extra step.
Rags are trying to do everything in one/two seasons and it's never going to work.

all this crap about robnaldo on the bench for the everton game and it was why they drew the game is bollocks
the amount of money they spent on sancho and others should have been enough to win the game ? even the so called best player in the world could not change the result when coming on

but could have picked up a injury if he started and miss 2 to 3 months so its swings and roundabouts
but the joy of them dropping points and ronaldo toys out of the pram and the shit ole at the wheel manager

And yet the Irony is they were in a one horse title fight for 20 years, or is this a Clarkie ;-)

Sadly I think we are all getting too giddy. The Rags gameplan FWIW is suited to playing stronger teams. Whilst Noddy is way out of his depth, they have a lot of above average front players who convert a decent percentage of chances.

wouldn’t be surprised if they snatch goals on the break despite being battered in possession by Leicester, Spuds, Atalanta away, Bindippers, Watford Villareal and us, so a mixture of wins and draws Can see a high scoring draw vs Atalanta at home, Arsenal, Palace and Young Boys will be the games they will struggle most as they’ll have to adapt their game which they can’t and hope for penalties free kicks, dodgy goalkeeping to dig them out. chelsea will beat them though IMO. I reckon 17 PL pts in there for them

And yet they are probably the second or third most successful team in terms of PL points over the past 4 seasons.
Fuck them, fuck Olly and fuck their next five managers. A true City fan will want them to lose every game unless them winning is a boost for us.

Completely agree - until I start moonlighting back in the SOO campaign thread later on............... ;-)

And the brothers will get something like 137 million dollars with not a penny going to the club. What a brilliant way to make money.
If it was any other club I would be fuming but the rags created this scenario when they bought success by floating on the stock exchange, oh and then along came a race horse.
 
They're just the gift that keeps on giving.
Fat gobby rag on one of the boozers I go in wanted a bet on who'd finish higher, the weekend PR7 signed.
He kept going on all night about it so I called his bluff & bet him £100. He scoffed & wanted £200. He was that confident he let me choose the charity, in his own words, so I "don't feel hard done by"
I came straight back with £500 charity bet.
He saw his arse immediately but couldn't back down.
Funnily enough, I've not seen him for 3 weeks.
CITC will be very pleased with his donation come May.

I agree with this.

If anything it's the games where the opposition allow them to have a lot of possession that they often seem to fail to win, most of the rag wins come when they're getting played off the park for most of the game and then they just hit on the break.
