Match Thread | Man City vs Nottingham Forest (23/09/23)

No where near him, fucking Taylor couldn't wait to dish out the red. VAR should intervene, the replay clearly showed there was no contact, but we know they won't.

Hands around the throat. Rodri is to blame

 

[Tricky_Trev]

All that was a reaction because he couldn’t handle being fairly tackled by Gibbs-white prior to that. Fucking idiot.

 

[SWP's back]

Every adult in the ground knows that’s simulation and not a red card but Rodri has, by the letter of the law, given the ref an opportunity to send him off and he’s foolish in doing so.

No need to touch his neck, Gibbs-White is a **** for play acting and hope karma sorts him out in whichever way it sees fit.

The plus side (so long as we still win):

One game of the ban is a league cup match he would miss anyway.

A little enforced test is good for his long term viability anyway.

 

[dhruvblue]

Make or break for Phillips. He doesn't perform today it's all over for him if it's already not over

 

[M Gaudino]

people like foden need to play sensibly now. no trying to dance past players in midfield and giving it away

 

[mancityscot]

Fuck sake man. Really fucked the team that. 45 minutes with ten men, Phillips now on, and now without him for 3 games. Fucking idiotic

 

[pennblue]

Watch Taylor give ederson a yellow for taking any time at all on a goal kick

 

[Chi-town blues]

That Gibbs-White and Taylor are both cheating cunts?

just looks at his face , punch bag ****

 

[M18CTID]

Was foden who touched him

Watching in a bar in Malta and exactly what I thought - that Foden delivered the ultimate blow. If it can be called a blow that is!

 

[Iassel]

There should be 5 red cards a match if this is a red card

Grow up.

 

[Adz1108]

Why are people saying its a three match ban?

Because that’s the standard ban for a straight red, how can you not know this?

 

[AirbagsOptionalTheReturn]

That pull back on Gvardial is a yellow or should be

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Forrest are swinging out of us.
Let’s see one of them being sent off to even things up.

 

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

City!! Agro!! City!! Agro!!



Rodri turned into a nutter... bloody hell well Phillips gets a chance let's hope he Impresses, come on lads still gotta see this through if not add more goals.

 

[happy]

Kalvintime!

 

[yankblue]

**** must’ve said something that ticked rodri

Probably did but that happens in every match. Can't react like that

 

[deano ou812]

Right it’s done,nothing we can do to change it let’s get the win and hopefully add another couple of goals ..

No where near him, fucking Taylor couldn't wait to dish out the red. VAR should intervene, the replay clearly showed there was no contact, but we know they won't.

Are you fucking blind?

 

[bluke]

Pep didn't want to give him
a well-deserved break so Rodders took the matters into his own hands.

 

[SWP's back]

No where near him, fucking Taylor couldn't wait to dish out the red. VAR should intervene, the replay clearly showed there was no contact, but we know they won't.

The replay clearly showed his hands contacting his neck. A very soft red but a red none the less. If their player actually had a set of testicles then he wouldn’t have gone down (3 seconds after the contact) but Rodri’s own actions allowed him to do so.
