Despite our poor performance, the manager seemed incapable of making any sort changes, either personnel or tactics. His vacant expression when the cameras zoomed in said it all.

In my opinion the current badge and all previous ones are too detailed and do not immediately identify the club. In the current modern media branding, a simple, uncluttered design works better. For example, think of Nike with the swoosh, for football badges Arsenal with the artillery piece...

Somebody mentioned early the subject of leadership and the captains armband. The simple answer on Sunday was that we did not have any leaders on the pitch. There was not one City player urging the others on or remonstrating at bad defending. They were all looking at each other when their...

Copied and pasted from the Premier League site: How often can a club change their kit? There is no Premier League rule to say how often clubs must change their kits or a rule governing how long a kit must be worn for. The life cycle of a club kit should be made clear at the point of sale...

I agree with Mancini on this one. It seems as if he was to report to the national team base, be examined and then return to City. The fact they then deemed him fit and played him for 90 minutes is irrelevant - it was against the clubs wishes. Lets face it, if Vinny was a Red then SAF would...

I would not advocate sacking him as I think City more than any other club needs a period of stability. I would however question his indulgence of Mario. Is he trying to prove to the likes of Mourinho that he has the gift to turn Mario into the world class striker Bobby claims he is? This...

The point everybody is overlooking is the new interpretation of active or non-active. When Skirtle makes the header Borini is not active (ie he is not taking part in that particular passage of play). If, however, Hart had parried the ball or it an upright and Borini then knocked it over the...

A bit unfair to blame Lescott for all our problems against Chelsea. With Clichy being roasted by Sturridge, and on a booking, why did Mancin not consider subbing him, bring on another center back and move Lescott to left back? He has played there before (with Everton) and it might have...

I agree with Blue for Life. This club had made huge strides both on and off the pitch. The Board appear to know what they want and how to achieve it. The team will have success but we do have to be patient. Also, for those of you advocating spending more big sums, remember that we have to...

The referees inconsistency is best highlighted by the fact that Huddlestone committed at least 7 fouls and no booking - none of these were in dangerous positions but merely served to disrupt Citys attacking play and passing in midfield.

G gets my vote

The short answer is yes. I was all for supporting him to see if he could turn things round but it apparent that he appears unable. Compare us with yesterdays opponents who, under their previous manager were shite. In comes Hodgson, with not a lot of cash at his disposal, and he makes them...

Funny how yesterday, and in previous matches, unknown journeymen have outplayed us, outfought us and have seemed to want the win more than our lot. I am all for class players but even they have to run and work back occasionally. At the moment I would settle for someone on the pitch with...
