Get a grip

[Didsbury Dave]

That's right, because anyone who doesn't agree with Dickhead Dave is young, stupid, from a shit upbringing and devoid of any sense of humour.

You're such an arrogant, self righteous prick it's laughable

Don't really want to get involved in this, but I've mentioned this to you before, Dave - you're awfully patronising, to the extent that it seems you're being deliberately provocative.

Try to imagine a horribly smug twat, constantly belittling the grammar, etc of others - that's you, that is. Not nice, is it? Mend your ways!

With the amount of shit I get from the tubthumpers I think I show remarkable restraint to not get sucked into mindless personal insults. This thread is a great example.

You stand or fall on your intellect and wit only on forums. And anyway, they are only bloody forums.

Oh, I never correct grammar either, as it goes.

I'm not arsed about the code of conduct to be perfectly honest after reading your posts.

You take great pleasure in watching Mancini fail, which i find pathetic and quite sad

If you'd have heard my wife bollocking me last night for shouting at the kids and marching round with a scowl on my face you'd know that that was not true.

I'm gutted and horrified at what I see before me.

There's something uniquely.....desperate....about you tubthumpers who have run out of arguments so resort to comments claiming thinking City fans somehow want the club, or manager, to fail.

It smacks of intellectual poverty if I'm honest.

Hahaha... does that mean you class that really sarcastic thread on Patrick Vieira you started as 'intellectual'? It hardly gave an amazing insight as to what's wrong at the club did it? But hey, what would I know, I like Mancini so I obviously have shit for brains. Teach me to be a self loathing blue, oh wise one.

TBF, look at Dave's more recent threads. The credibility, respect and agreement that use to runth rough them all has now gone.

I don't think Ant is the only one who thinks theres a few posters on here who are pertty close to borderline when it comes to Club versus personel. Regardless of whether there's any truth in it, i can understand why it certainly looks that way.

I'm becoming more Pro Mancini as the hysteria whips up. There really is no one that has a more impressive CV, that knows our owners better or curerntly would be wholly more suited to the job to take over.

Not just that, but what kind of presidence do we set from sacking the manager again? If another manager ever lost three games in a row (1 being down to 10 men another in the Europa Cup) we'd have to let him go too.

There's a difference between voicing your concerns and a lot of what's posted on here. A lot of it is knee jerk fuckwittery; a lot of it is people who have something against a player or our manager and refuse to see the wood for the trees.

I don't think Mancini has done anything close to warrent the sack at this moment.

Do you enjoy the one-paced boring football we are playing? Do you enjoy the fact that we play with no tempo, that we don't attack teams and we don't put them under pressure?

I'm not having a go here, it's just a question that all Mancini apologists seem to swerve.

 

[City Raider]

Today it is really obvious that the sceptics are totally different kinds of people to the apologists. In terms of background, age, wit and intelligence.It's pretty funny if you stand back and read whole threads.

This one's a decent example.

Can you expand on that bit - do you not think it might be a gross generalisation?

I'm not as fed up as a lot i speak to with you play; at the begining of the season we kept possesion with a purpose, we wore teams down and we forced them into mistakes. I thought it was the next step on the evolutionary scale of where football was going since the Arsenal gung ho style seems to have been thwarted somwhat in recent years.

I'll always remember Arsenal away last season, their spine were all out and we should have gone there and battered them; Silvestre and Sendaros i think was there back two and we managed 1 shot on goal.

It does seem to be a feature creeping back in, the don't lose then look to win.

I keep telling myself that we ahven't had our first team out this season, let alonwe given them all time to work together on the pitch.

We're deffinately not the finished article, but i don't think we can judge Mancini at this point in time now. Not only because its 'too early' but also the effect it would ahve on any other future manager.

I agree GStar but when you have a blank cheque , two transfer windows and your points total to date is less than it was at the same time last year if and I say if the next two or three games go against you ( remember Hughes was sacked 16 games into the season ) the pressure mounts from both within and without.

The op could have retitled the thread what if we were to lose the next three games when will RM get the sack and the content may have been a little different than it has been on this thread.

There's a big divide amongst City fans on a passionate subject...the manager. Nothing more, nothing less.

I don't think anyone wants City to be in this situation but we are.

If he starts winning and things come together this weekend we'll laugh about this down the line. But it's ridiculous to say things like "for some it's personal" and shite like that. Every City fan knows that changing a manager, whoever it is, brings it's own set of problems. Every City fan wants Mancini to succeed. Because City will then be successful.

But things are not right. They have to come together soon or we've chucked another season down the pan. That's the reality.

Ahh the voice of reason GStar.........THANK YOU!

100% agree with all you say here pal. I was as pissed off as anybody this week, being here really doesnt help, as you cant get it out of your system by going down to the local for a pint and a chat with like-minded individuals...

I stand firmly behind Mancini, he's the manager (a bloody well respected one at that!) of our beloved club and if hes good enough for the Sheik he's certainly god enough for me! Have faith and he will deliver, i am certain of this btw!

Although we could alternatively go for the tried and trusted option of changing the manager every 12 months or so.....oh wait........weve done that and guess what..... IT DOESNT FOOKIN WORK!!

Trust in Bob - he will get it right!!!............he has to!

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

The lot of you.

You're a fuckin embaressment. Acting like no other club has ever lost 3 games in a row. Last night was shite, yes, but so fucking what we had our reserve team out there, with a lone striker incabable of holding the ball up so it kept coming straight back, what do you expect.

Grow up, it's crigeworthy to watch

Well said...totally agree. imo the added media 'pressure' over the past 2 years has got to some fans....it takes time to build a good side, not just a matter of getting players in.
