Don't underestimate what good a few trophies would do Manchester City in terms of morale, world profile and ability to attract players.
The way you're talking, you'd refuse to go out with Kylie Minogue because there was a chance she'd dump you.
If she dumps you, go out and chat up a supermodel. There's much more chance of her going out with you after you've been knobbing Kylie.
You miss out another part of that analogy. you're already knobbing Scarlett Johansen who is with you for life, do you dump her to knob Kylie once?

In this instance I'd say both you and Scarlett Johansen have agreed it's just a fling.
And word on the street is that Kylie's about to split up with her lover. There are stories from good sources that she's already beem texting suggestively ;-)

Despite the rather sexist analogy going on here. I think this hits the crux of it. If RM is here for 10 years builds something a la Wenger at Arsenal but with more cash wins three league titles and maybe something larger, would you sacrifice that for the temporry success JM would undoubtedly bring.

Ha ha ha.
Your personal crusade against Mourinho is pretty funny...I hope for your sake that Mancini gets to keep his job in the summer, otherwise the about face you do may just give you whiplash...;- )

I'm with you pasta, what is amazing is that billy accuses you of a personal crusade against a manager that we don't even have, yet the fact that you clearly support the manager that is striving to get us to the illusive 4th spot and is our manager gets no mention. eemmmmmmmmmm wonder why!
BillyShears said:The point I make is that taking those results in isolation doesn't prove anything one way or the other. Mourinho is a winner, Mancini is a winner, etc. etc. etc.
In the end we will not be deciding either manager's future, but it's churlish to question the record of either manager. They are both in fact very special, which is why they have so much silverware at such a young age in management terms...
