Last manager who City fans really wanted sacked

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Hughes was probably the right man at the wrong time, and would arguably have been more successful and popular if he'd replaced Keegan in 2005. His sacking was inevitable from the moment the takeover was announced so I always had a little bit of sympathy for the way he was treated.

Eriksson was a weird one essentially because his reputation seemed far higher than his actual achievements. Indeed, City's performances seemed to mirror his time as England Manager with the occasional moment of magic regularly eclipsed by square pegs in round holes desperately clinging on to a 1-0 lead or looking clueless, disinterested and outmuscled

Pellegrini was too passive and downbeat especially in his last season which seemed to last an eternity.

However, Pearce was on a different level in 2006-07

Plan A Diagonal long ball to the left wing hoping to win a throw-in near the corner flag.
Plan B Diagonal long ball to the right wing hoping to win a throw-in near the corner flag

I wouldn't mind, but we didn't even have anyone who could take a decent corner or a long throw.

Hughes the rag bastard.
I wanted him sacked before he got the job

Hughes?

Without a shadow of a doubt.

I can’t believe the stick Pellegrini is getting. He calmed a volatile situation, played some great attacking football, won three trophies and took us to the semi finals of the Champions League.

He’s statistically the second most successful manager we’ve ever had and an absolute gentleman too.

Absolute bollcks? I think this charming man is a great song.

he was sick, he was dull, he was plain.

You're being way, way too kind to Hughes.

Fuck him.

Shit manager and a rag ****.

The day we sent him packing and got Mancini in is up there as a City celebratory moment I'll never forget.

Why pamper life's complexitys when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?

Exactly.

There were a lot of people who wanted Mancini sacked towards the end. Its looked back fondly now but I remember people giving him a lot of shit

Really? I loved him and so did many. He showed Fergie we were here to stay.
