You wouldn't last one punch ladWhen he stops with his shit house comments on the wind up.
He is like a talk sport presenter whom you would never get fed up of punching in the face.

Not shit. Just had another bad day in an FA Cup semi final at Wembley...Is there ever a game we don’t win where we don’t try and find a dodgy decision? We can’t win every game. We mainly lost because our keeper was shit.

I definitely heard the whistle as the corner was being taken. I was at the back of the lower tier, to the right of the goal. It seemed to come from my right. So almost certainly from a City fan, probably in the corner trying to distract the corner taker.

That worked out well! Seriously, what kind of dickhead does that?I definitely heard the whistle as the corner was being taken. I was at the back of the lower tier, to the right of the goal.

Could be worse.Record in FA Semis now won 11 lost 6, we hadn't lost for one since 1932 and 4 come along at once.
Chelsea are in the final for the 3rd straight season. They've been in the final in 5 of the last 6 seasons now. Should they lose to Liverpool they'll be losing finalists in 4 of the last 5 times they've featured in the final.

Chelsea will win it so we’ll play them in the community shield.
While most Blues present did respect the minute’s silence, and some of it may have been concourse singing, there were loads in the ground behind the goal who started chanting City and they knew what they were doing Tim, and that was fucking shameful, as were those booing. I hate the dippers with a passion, I hate their victim mentality (such as booing the national anthem), but there’s a time and a place if people want to be disrespectful cunts, and yesterday wasn’t it.
I also thought our support was shocking yesterday. Row upon row in where I was were sat on their hands the entire game, but let’s be honest it was the same everywhere. We can take the piss out of the dippers being Norwegians, we can give it “spot the scouser on the kop” but they were very fucking loud yesterday, from before the kick off, and all of them seemed to be singing, we never get that, too many can NEVER be arsed. Someone in front of me turned round to my 13 year old who was angry at the fact nobody was singing and said “well we all support City in our different ways”, quick as a flash my 15 year old said “yeah but not by fucking telepathy”. On this occasion he wasn’t told off for swearing.
I find it hard to criticise our lack of numbers yesterday but it was at best disappointing. My lads said it was “pathetic” and I tried explaining to them that when people criticise our support and history our support from around 1978 to 2011 was our history (of that period), and we were famous for our loyalty; “not any more dad” was the response, and it was bloody hard to argue.
As regards the team selection and performance, it was really disappointing but tbh I was more gutted last Sunday than yesterday, the PL IS more important and it hurts more when you batter the opposition and don’t win than it does to lose when you don’t turn up, players and fans. At least there’s one less PL game to squeeze in now. Not great but it’s a crumb. Let’s hope Chelsea win today and give the dippers a really hard game, and a beating.
As for the dippers fans, as loud as they were in the ground, they were unbearable cunts outside it, the only thing worse than a bad loser is a bad winner. Our group of 4 was aged 13,15, 63 and 71, hardly a threatening mob, but the number of dippers who came up to us and tried to provoke trouble was despicable. I thought they were actually worse than the villa fans at Wembley.
Not a good day, a fucking shocker, but let’s hope the injured and tired players recover and regroup and win the 2 remaining trophies. And let’s hope our fans do our job, in our own fucking ways of course
I'm really sorry your group was hassled and provoked. I can't see the point and it's completely unnecessary. You can't begrudge fans celebrating a win if that's all they do but there's no need to go on to have a go like that.
As for the Hillsborough silence, I can understand if what was going on was not understood or it was concourse singing (I remember thinking it sounded a bit remote at the time). I've read others here saying it was deliberate and I guess you always get a few but even a few is worth the apology in this case.
What's worrying is the worsening of attitudes between clubs. It's always been a decent club and I for one was happy when City won it that first time in such a long time (even happier when we won it after a similar wait of course). Seems there's an increased nastiness on both sides - on and off the pitch, which is a crying shame. The closer teams are the worse it seems to get but City and Liverpool have been close enough recently (and City have had the better of it in the PL at least), so I don't get the change or why it's happened.
I was watching a video of a fan on YouTube, who was absolutely obsessed with doing down the fans, repeating stuff over and over. Clenched fists - almost sobbing with frustration. No matter that it was about people dying at a football match. All right, she was p*ssed but it wasn't the football that bothered her, it was the fans.
Just one example and there'll be many others on many other themes from lots of different clubs. Something broken there and it's not just football.
I think they’ll win providing the wrap up their top 4 spot asap. They should be able to rest and rotate leading up to the final. Enjoy the sort of fitness advantage that Liverpool had on SaturdayChelsea will win it so we’ll play them in the community shield.
Went with my 14 year-old. Weather nice, bit of 'dad-and-lad' time at the Home of English football. Result irritating but nothing set against the majority of the Liverpool fans. Good grief. Some tough guy sidled over to us on Wembley Way before the game taking aim at all the young kids in City kits and how they should all be beaten up. We looked at him with bemused looks on our faces. I'm not condoning the morons booing during the minute's silence, but their fans are unbelievably sanctimonious; show us respect but we're not going to show you any. Might as well give them the World Cup in December. It'll go down as the day that I realised that they are as entitled as the Manure lot.
