Lowest point in supporting City since the 2008 takeover

[JASR]

Alan Ball onwards for me...a shorter list is to name the good times.

I’m unsure what Alan Ball has done since 2008 that was ‘low’ for City…

Unless you mean that since 2008 you still keep having flashbacks!

Losing at Old Trafford in the Carling cup semi final with a late goal and then being locked in listening to United dirge over the tannoy. It felt like we would never break the cycle.

Van persie free kick for utd taking the title back to them, Nasri the coward ducking out of the way. Pep deciding no Rodri or Fenandinho were needed against Chelsea in the champions league final despite one or the other playing every game throughout the season , effectively giving Chelsea control of a very winnable final.

I’m glad you mentioned the Van Persie free kick. At that point I still got pumped up for the derby like the whole season depended on it (which it particularly did then), so any player (no matter how good) not giving 100% was more unforgivable than making a mistake. Nasri hang your head in shame!

I was hoping my edit answer creeped in before anyone saw it. Apparently not :)

But yes, to be honest I still have flashbacks to this day.

Real Madrid and sometimes reading the matchday thread.

The Liverpool games in the CL
Pre VAR
First leg German ref, offside goals given for them, penalty denied for us....
2nd leg Pro Spanish ref - perfect goal by Sane ruled out, would have been 2 up at half time.and the place rocking.... instead we go in 1 up and our Catalonian manager sent to the stands.
The team and crowd deflated. It's the day we knew UEFA were not going to let us win this cup.
Fast forward 12 months and we play Spurs and even with VAR they still won't let us win it....

This - if only Mancini had stuck with his normal cup tie keeper?

And they never will.

For me taking the foot off the Rags throat and allowing them to come back from 2-0 to win the game.

If we'd have won that game it would have been written in the annals of our club forever, that we beat the Rags to win the League.

I just don't think we'll ever get that chance again.
