Rather have hiddink over Mourinho anyway. A man that honours his contracts

Then I will go to 19 home games and probably be bored shitless in 15 of them.

Re: if the Owner confirm mancini....

Tell me, if Mancini is sacked at the end of this season, what will you think?

Don't thank Mancio will be here next Season if Mancini isn't.

Yet another reason why he should be shown the door then!!!0

Re: if the Owner confirm mancini....

Correct. ADUG will be guided by reports going back to them from Cook, Marwood and their advisors. If those reports are negative about RM and the prospects of him taking us to where we all want to be, he's in trouble.

is very likely to be the exact opposite.

You're a big RM fan so I wouldn't expect you to say any different. Fair enough.

Re: if the Owner confirm mancini....

You are wrong!

no no mate , i'm right and i'm sure you know i'm right

Do you see why people find you so akward, you have asked for people to give you their opinion. No one has given you abuse, yet when they do you tell them its rubbish.

If you think Brian Marwood has no input, then you clearly are clueless on the subject.

Who signed Milner ? who signed AJ ?

Both of those where 100% Marwood deals, Mancini would never have seen the player AJ could be. He just isnt his type of player.

The Sheik has very little to do with the running of the club, although im sure things are run by him. Altough its clear from the Hughes sacking, Marwood is the man with the real influence in regards to football, Cook deals with the buisness.

Listen to what people who live and breath this say, you will without a doubt learn something.

The point is, it's what the players, staff at Carrington, coaching staff, matchday staff, Garry Cook, Brian Marwood, Mike Rigg, etc think about him that matters. They're the ones who have to deal with him. If they all decide he should go, he'll be gone. Whether that day has already come, only they can know.

you well know they dont have the power to decide about this. only the Owner have that power.

What you're saying doesn't make any sense. Brian Marwood, Mike Rigg, Garry Cook, Khaldoun, are all in place to run the business of City. If they all decide Mancini needs to go, he'll go. Just as when they all decided Hughes needed to go, he went.

If Roberto is still here next year, it will mean that we have had a successful end to the season, that he has abandoned his increasing policy of moral cowardice and that he has decided to finally show faith and trust in the qualities of the players he has signed.
If he fails to meet his objectives for the second year running, then he is gone baby gone.
It is all down to Roberto. In some ways, only he can decide his future.

If you decide not to, PM me.

Surely the point is if it came to that the owner would decide which who he trusted. If they go to him and say; Hughes had to go, we got this guy, now he has to go, that might raise questions as to whether they were the problem all along.

An interesting about-face from Jason Burt indicates to me that there really is no united front behind the scenes, different people are saying different things (or one person is changing their tune on a daily basis)
.
First, in line with many other journalists who used the exact same phrases over the weekend;

There should be greater ambition at such an ambitious club. Mancini will now hope that the tear to Tévez’s adductor muscle is quickly healed. The prognosis is two to three weeks but he desperately needs his captain for the home match against Sunderland on April 3. He also needs to get far more out of Balotelli — a £24 million signing — and the £27 million recruit Edin Dzeko. These are concerning times for Mancini. Even if he gains that fourth place he can count himself fortunate if he is not replaced for the next campaign. His innate caution may be his downfall.

Then by last night;

If City fail to finish fourth, then the pressure will grow on Mancini especially after they missed out last season and considering the dour football they often play under the Italian.

The unrest caused by one of his expensive recruits, Mario Balotelli, who was signed for £24 million and may well leave this summer, and the failure so far of £27 million signing Edin Dzeko to score a Premier League goal has also not gone unnoticed.

There is a great deal of support, however, for Mancini within the club’s hierarchy, and Kompany also stated that it was “never going to be straightforward” for City to win the league.However they do need to remain competitive until the end of the campaign.

To be honest I imagine the owner has much bigger things on his mind than us right now.

Re: if the Owner confirm mancini....

we've again become a laughing stock. we have just wasted 3 years.
there is nothing we can do except dust ourselves down and get on with the rest of the season.

Why are we a laughing stock?

The only derision that is earned should be directed at those who had ludicrous thoughts that the title was ours for the taking.

If we have a positive end to this season the Top 3 will be looking to their laurels next season especially the southern teams.

We WILL be a laughing stock if we change horses again (Mourinho excepted) after a CL qualification and/or a FA Cup win.

If we fail to achieve those then a reasoned long term decision needs to be made for the benefit of all.
