This is the time of the year when teams start getting tired. Drained timed, not physically tired, but mentally drained and fatiqued. This is the time of season teams loose grounds. The rags are expert at this, Ferguson knows exactly what he's doing. Mancini doesn't. That's not so much of a...

Can we not just take a well deserved loss on the chin instead of acting like bloody rags. We deserved to loose. Simple as. No amount of whinging and bitching about "the evil empire" will change that. Answer me this. Did our players work as hard as Everton did? Did they look like they...

90 minutes. We're supposed to be in the run for the title. We're on top. 90 minutes and we should have had the ability to fix any mistakes that were made. Give out about the ref? What did Howard have to do? When did their back 4 look stressed or under a lot of pressure? We were toothless...

This. Words mean nothing, it's actions that speak the loudest. All this fair play and respect thing will never work until rules are put in place so that it has to happen. Rugby is a good example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YUF9LSXAkY&feature=player_embedded I've seen bad decisions in...

Respect needs to be there. It's what you teach kids at the youngest level. They have to respect the ref. The older they get the more difficult it becomes, but at every level, no matter how justified it is, it is neccesary. The game wouldn't function without refs. That said, I always thought...

World Cup in New Zealand? There were a few more there than a man and a dog. Not country to country, no they don't have as near a fan base as football is because it's not as global. But for each country where it's strong has big fan basis. It's well past the days of a few lads and a dog.

Villa have just collapsed in the must pathetic way possible. Stupid penalty the first time Given had it covered but Dunne being Dunne lost his head for a second and made a stupid decision. The second goal was ridiculous, look how close he got to Shay Given, despite most of hte Villa players...

Dunne, Given and Ireland (who knew) doing well.

Not sure what level you've watched it at, but rugby's changed. It's a massive fan base and it puts football to shame at times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YUF9LSXAkY

It all sounds great, all these plans, silence, walking out etc. But it wont happen, we all know it. If he ever did play for us again, the reality is that we'd boo him a bit at the start but the second he did something positive like score a goal, all is forgotten, all is forgiven and the whole...

That looked painful. Most people would need a ladder to get up that high.

Haha. The only ones who are close to passing out are the two lads.

Football is an unforgiving sport, culture and macho, so no I don't think they'll ever come out. I know there have to be players who are out within their team, but I doubt they'll come out to us, and that's their business. There are two sports people are out. One in rugby, the other in the...

Whatever about the punditry, these guys (Rafa and Djokivic) have been playin 5 hours (ish), massive respect to them for that. Most pro footballers can't go 90 mins without getting cramp or missing a chance because they were tired.

I thought he'd hold on until the rags were available. Couldn't see him coming here, maybe if we didn't win the title and Mancini decided to leave or the guys upstairs thought it wasn't good enough. But I honestly thought he'd take over the rags.

Mic the refs as it was mentioned already. They do it in rugby and we can atleast hear their thinking. They do it in American football as well where they pretty much explain their decisions to the entire stadium. That's a bit ott, but hearing what they are saying would be nice. Refs are so...

Re: Question Time just mensioned City... 4th choice earing 4 million a year? Fuck it I could do that. I don't think it was a swipe at City, we're the richest club out there, and they were just highlighting how someone who isn't anywhere close to even warming a bench can make that much. It's...

If you all remember back to when Chelsea were taken over the hate was the same. The best explanation I could get for it was that we had no right, we hadn't earned it, that the players weren't here to play for City but to play for the money. (What, and the rest of the premiership players are...

Had to do a double take to think who Smalling was. Oh dear.

Wouldn't have guessed that.
