I was almost livid at Kompany for arriving late then not managing to drag down Traore(was it?) for a yellow card, then they scored, I spent half an hour sat there on the moral high ground safe in the knowledge that we didn't cheat but with the hope draining away.... needless to say, we're...

Yes, yes, yes, but if he hadn't been such an utter knobshite on so many occasions, we could have sewn up the title a month ago. Now I've said that I can't think of any occasions this season when his knobshittery has cost us points, even at home to Sunderland, after pissing everyone off, he...

His response, which I'm probably not going to bother to read in full, begins "You do realise you're a ****, don't you? Laugh it up, we'll see you next yea..."

A rag mate of mine who is very easily wound up said (unprovoked) after watching MOTD of us sneak a draw vs Sunderland "you jammy bastards, City don't deserve to win the league, you're a disgrace, arguing with yourselves, Balotelli is a disgrace, blah blah blah, if City win the league this year...

Is anyone remotely surprised that the response of the smuggest, most arrogant rag in the whole of celebrity semi-stardom was to be smug and arrogant about finishing second? Arsenal looked delighted to finish third, now that's how to lose graciously.

Not quite a brick shitter, but still good.

They might as well have it at the Etihad!!

I wish Windows XP allowed animated GIFs as wallpapers

I want one. You know the one. Bloke with specs tentatively listening to the radio while all around him stand smiling. Turns left and says "...they've scored". I need a gif. Someone make it happen PLEASE

I have now abandoned my pursuance of this scheme in favour of a simple broadening of the post-match incident review system that allows the FA to issue an automatic retrospective 1 match ban to cheating little twats who dive to win a penalty, like Young, and a retrospective yellow card if they...

I'd argue that it's no more complicated at all, but I would say that, as it's my system :-) Yes you can probably glean most of the above from the ref vs player interactions, I do accept that, and I've seen a few times (particularly in Europa matches) when a player was going to get booked "for...

Of course. I'm not the FA. I'm just making a start OK, depending on the ref's view and opinion, 4 or 7. At worst, going in for a tackle leading with your knee is flipping dangerous and therefore "threatening conduct" (7) the way I saw it. Or at best, a very clumsy challenge (4). The crux of...

If you're in the East or North stand, walk past the City Store and Joe Mercer plaque, cross over the canal, turn first left down the steps and follow the canal into town, you'll need to bear right just after the aqueduct over Store Street, and then left along Ducie Street then left onto Station...

SHOULD I HAVE WRITTEN THE WHOLE POST IN CAPITALS?

I think one solution to the debate over refs and cards would be to have an open grading & points system for fouls -- we have the technology, it's called pen and paper -- ref openly informs his decision as to whether it's: grade 1 = 1pt - accidental and innocuous foul grade 2 = 2pts - accidental...

Apologies if I've misattributed the quotes, and for dragging this up 3 pages later, but I saw that exactly as TPP did at the time. I had already thought Balotelli deserved a red, until I saw the replay, then I wasn't quite so sure it was as bad as it looked from the first angle behind Balo -...

I couldn't see the top of the Colin Bell but the 3rd tier of the East was definitely full. And as has been pointed out probably on every page of this thread, sold out doesn't always equal someone sat in the seat, especially when you've got 30,000 enrolled in a fixed cup scheme. Do you know...

10 mins selling KK, then 5 mins walk to the car and 20 mins drive home across town, or 25 mins walk to Picc, 10-20 mins wait, and 10 mins home on the train One of the two only advantages of living in Salford!!

We need to make it look to the rest of the world like he's amazing and our prodigal son so that we can sell the little shit for £20m in the summer. Any amount of booing / perceived loss of form and we run the risk of being stuck with him. I'll be cheering his name, fo sho. Hasn't 20 years of...

The attendance at the Porto game and your ignorance of the financial situation of the general public indicates that this might be a slight exaggeration. That said, I agree with you.
