True, Utd used their corporate 'fans' well in the beginning but now they can afford to piss as many fans off as they want, eg: automatic cup scheme etc, and they almost always sell out but then they are being very successful at the moment so its easier for them. Wembley is doing the same as we...

svennis, not too sure City deserved all 3 points tbh, that may have been a bit harsh on us! Not got the stats to hand but I'm pretty sure Liverpool dominated territory, possession, shots, corners etc, in other words all the usual bollocks apart from the most important one; goals scored! I will...

Well there is always your noisy neighbours to attract the glory-hunters I suppose but one piece of silver could soon get the 'sleepers' clamouring for City tickets again. I hope your owners don't try to price the genuine fans out of the equation, I'm sure they wouldn't get away with it...

Not quite so 'easy to beat' as it happens, only one league defeat this season, Spurs away. Admittedly, we would take another defeat or two and rather won more home games (6 league draws at Anfield now) but still not an easy team to actually beat. Agree that good things are starting to happen at...

City and the COMS has all this pleasure to come when you finally land some silverware! Family-friendly stadia and prices to match, higher expectations and impatience, global marketing and bigger club profile, more regular tv exposure and regular foreign away trips... all these beautiful things...

Regarding the good player-shit player comparison, I think most squads are in the same boat, even the rags. Kuyt is much maligned but he is a great squad player and 100% committed to the cause, a trait sadly lacking in many players these days, if Rafa could replace him with top quality with the...

Liverpool fan, here in peace. I don't believe it should take City too long to break into the top 4 or even make it a top 5 but by the term 'top 4' I assume you are talking about Champions League qualification? City are just a couple of players short of getting to and staying in the top 6 in the...

Lol, I just love Lawrenson being proved wrong! Fair result in my opinion really despite Liverpool having the better of the territory, possession, goal attempts etc, you'd expect that from a home side supposedly chasing the title (ho hum). I thought the best chance and even the best move of the...

Phil Dowd apparently. He's had his moments with Liverpool but I don't think it has to be a top 4 club that gets decisions as you say, its just a fact that the team that does most of the attacking and has most of the possession will inevitably win more free kicks etc, surprised you can't see...

Senna and Bellamy are exactly the type of players City need to get them up the table and help them qualify for Europe though. You need spikey little fuckers who will niggle all day not to get beat, not great players who need a perfect pass and then plenty of time on the ball, players like Senna...

Ireland could be for City what Gerrard is for Liverpool. And I can't pay him a higher accolade than that although he has a long way to go yet.

Does anyone think that Hughes could be sacked depending on the Hull/Blackburn results? I wonder if the owners will give him a blank cheque next month because, as rich as they are, if MH doesn't produce and they bin him at the end of the season then any new manager will only have to start again...

Always rated Ball personally and he has an attitude which City seem to be lacking atm. Never been that keen on Vassell, pacy but not top class, a poor mans Michael Owen if you like. Benjani will be a City legend after helping spoil the party at OT last Feb but I don't see his career in the...

Lots of 'other' fans join their rivals forums, I think its ok as a rule so long as they behave and show a little respect. A bit like sitting in the wrong end at a match, remember where you are and be humble is a general rule. Lots of other teams fans on a Liverpool website I'm a member of and...

I saw it, yes a good game. Out of interest did anyone disagree with the Terry red card?

Speaking as a neutral (well ok a Liverpool fan) I think Ireland has been Citys best player this season and he caught my eye last season too. Along with Robinho and SWP, maybe Kompany as well, he is one of the few players I'd like to see in a Liverpool shirt. Class player and shows lots of heart...

ah that explains it :-)

Why, thats almost compassion from you scottyboi, you big girl you ; ) Oh, and utd do take the piss 'big style' btw mackenzie, I will make my post soon, just pissed me off tonight when I was halfway through a quite long post my ISP decided to cut me off and by the time I got back on I'd lost...

Was halfway through a post when my internet went down about an hour ago (which really pissed me off but I expect it on a Sunday these days tbh) and have lost the thread now but it seems to have degenerated into a slag-fest anyhow! Maybe some other time.........
