Bobbys ad in today's MEN

[grim up north]

Attacks on the club, its employees, the board and with that, our owner are so fucking ridiculous its untrue.

Some on here to to give their heads a wobble.

May I suggest you start with yourself

I'm not particularly grateful to Mancini. He was a very well paid employee at the club who sometimes did a good job and sometimes didn't. snip

Wow, just wow...

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Mancini showing he has more class in his little finger than our entire board and many posters on here. Anyone who is trying to spin this in a negative way to once again spew more hate on Mancini needs to have long hard look at themselves because you are ungrateful twats.

I'm not particularly grateful to Mancini. He was a very well paid employee at the club who sometimes did a good job and sometimes didn't. The only person at the club that I am genuinely grateful to is the owner. I'm grateful that he chose City and I'm grateful that he continues to plough hundreds of millions into the club when the chances are that he will never make a penny of it back. I make no apology for that and if it makes me a twat then so be it. I'm not suggesting that decisions at the club can't ever be questioned but maybe he thinks that people whinging about the manager being sacked are ungrateful twats. Who knows?

Fair enough - but maybe the owner is also thinking that by backing F & T over this unpopular sacking - that they better deliver or it's them out next.
I doubt very much an intelligent business man like the Sheikh sees the situation in the purely black and white way you suggest.

I know exactly where you're coming from but please let's leave the giving heads a wobble requests to the Mancini sychophants.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Thank you so much, Roberto. So pleased we were all a part of it!

When you state......

"when the chances are that he will never make a penny of it back."

You are way off the mark, they'll make their money back and more, but over the medium to long term. They've got deep pockets and a plan, this isn't a hobby for them and they're not doing it for the love of football.

Well I don't think Mancini came to us for the love of the club. In fact he was one of the best paid managers in the world.

 

[BlueAnorak]

The real rag-like obsessive bitterness on this thread is coming entirely from the "outers".
I'm sorry Mancini has gone but I will be 100% behind the new man when he arrives but the club do deserve criticism for the way it was handled and to call posters rags because they say so is pretty low.

Agree 100%.

I will go further and state that that the management of Mancini's sacking has been a complete and utter shambles. Anyone who thinks it wasn't is frankly living in Cloud Cuckoo land.

Are you suggesting he wasn't a very well paid employee at the club? Or are you suggesting that he didn't sometimes do a good job and sometmes didn't? What is making you so absolutely staggered?

 

[Cellarite]

How the fuck has this been turned into yey another argument?

Thank you for the good times Roberto, and for your class.
